Question:
“Is it really worth the money to hire a stager. Can’t I stage my house with my existing furniture?”
Answer:
Yes, you can, but it may not be optimal. It depends on:
- Your furniture
Not all furniture is good for staging. It should be:- In new or excellent condition
- Coordinate well with your home’s décor and style
- Be modern or of the “right” style
- Your budget
If you just don’t have the funds, make the best with what you have. - Whether the home is occupied
It’s easier for a stager to bring in their furniture when a home is vacant. - Your home’s value
The higher your home’s value, the more it pays to have it professionally staged with the stager’s furniture.
If you do choose to use your own furniture, you can still hire a stager to coordinate things and add or change a few things around the edges.
That might mean painting an accent all, changing out some art, or who knows what.
I know a great stager, and he doesn’t charge for a consultation. Call, text, or email me for his info.
