How can YOU earn a Return on Investment of 586% when selling your home??
According to HomeGain.com 2009 it is STAGING your home!
HomeGain.com is a real estate website which surveyed almost 1,000 real estate agents on “which home improvement projects” will help sellers get top dollar. Home Staging raked #2 with an ROI of 586%.
The top 10 improvement opportunities with ROI’s were:
- Clean & De-Clutter – 872%
- Home Staging - 586%
- Lighten & Brighten – 572%
- Landscape Front & Back – 473%
- Repair Plumbing – 327%
- Update Electrical - 309%
- Replace/Clean Carpets – 295%
- Paint Interior Walls – 250%
- Repair Damaged Floors - 250%
- Update Kitchen - 237%
With a staging budget of $1,000 “invested” a seller should see a “return” of almost 6X that investment in their sales price.
If sellers Clean, De-Clutter and Stage their home that investment will come back almost 15X!!
As a professional Home Stager it was encouraging to see the results of a survey that I can share with agents and sellers. This survey supports the efforts of realtors and home stagers in advising sellers how best to showcase their home and that a Clean…De-Cluttered…and Staged home will net the seller at closing a PROFIT on their investment!
