Staged
Homes Sell FASTER & Have Increased Value! Nationwide, on Avg, Staged
Homes sell within 7.6 - 13.9 days & for
6
- 10% or more than a comparable home that was
not
staged.
My wife and
I were worried, when we decided to put our home up
for sale after we found out that the market in our
neighborhood was saturated with over 65 other
comparable homes for sale. We were also dealing
with much fewer buyers in the market due to the bad
economy, dropping home prices and failing mortgage
companies.
We had a short timeline to sell, due to job relocation
and had to move quickly. Our Real Estate agent
recommended that Paradise Home Staging could really
help us sell the home faster, if it were
professionally “Staged”.
Paradise Home Staging made our home look like a Model,
in only a short time. All the realtors and open
house visitors raved about how great it looked and
showed. And the web based virtual video tour they
provided to us for marketing, really helped pull in
those Web Shoppers.
Bottom line, after only about 1 month on the market,
the house was SOLD!
Thank You, Paradise Home Staging! Two Thumps Up!

-----------------------------------------
Our house had been on the market for over 8
months when we finally decided that we needed to do
something different to get it sold. The
staging company advised us to take our house off the
market for a couple of weeks, which we did, and
Paradise Home Staging sent two wonderful stagers
out. In less then a week these ladies
completely transformed the entire place. Their
design ideas and the work they did was amazing. On
the day of the brokers open house all the agents
commented on how comfortable it felt when they
walked in the door and about how easy our home would
be to show. We had only two open houses over
the following two weekends and our house sold with a
full price offer. There is no doubt in our
minds that the staging made ALL the difference.
We have now moved into our new home on Maui and all
the stress of selling is far behind us. Thank
you guys! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Before we dive in here, I recently came across a
couple of blog
postings on Active Rain recently that I would like to share with everyone
visiting this site. These blogs point to a scenario
that we stagers see very often. Most significant is that
these stories are not unique to the U.S. mainland; they also ring very true, even here
in the Hawaii Real Estate market.
If you are a home owner, a realtor, an
investor, a banker, a developer, or anyone that is about to
become involved with selling a home, you really should read these
blogs!

So okay, moving on...
Home Staging is the process of getting your home ready to
sale. Staging is Visual Home Merchandising. We will be focusing on the things that will increase the
value of your home the most, and transform it into a buyers dream. I will start off by
stating the "obvious"; there is a good chance that
your home is your most valuable asset. If not, it's
probably right up there at the top of the list. That's why your
home should be in confidant, professional hands when it's time
to sell. It can be difficult knowing exactly what to do
and how to prepare
your home so it will show well and be seen by prospective buyers
in it's best possible light. Hiring a Professional Home Staging
Company is what accomplishes this.
Staging vastly improves your chances of a
Faster Sale, and
staging will
help you to realize the best possible price from your home.
Staging your home decreases the number of low ball offers and turns
lookers into buyers lightening fast.
Other advantages of Home Staging:
Staged
Homes show as "well maintained" and "Taken Care Of"
Homes
that are Staged Stand Out, Apart from All The Others
A
Staged Home Will Attract a Broader Range of Potential Buyers
Staged
Homes Almost Always Appraise at Higher Values
Homes
that are Staged Convey a Professional Image and Look Much More
Appealing in Print and Advertising Media
Realtors
Are More Likely To Show and Work Harder to Sell a Home that has
been Professionally Staged Staging Is Never
An Expense - It Is always An Investment.
What you spend to have your home staged almost always come back
to you, and with a profit left over after your initial costs
have been recovered. Often times, this gain amounts to
thousands of dollars - sometimes it reaches into the tens of
thousands! Many people simply don't have the
time, or the knowledge and experience to do what it really takes
to give their home it's best shot at attracting the best offers
and at selling quickly. The truth is, most people
don't have a clue where to begin, what to do, why certain things
need to be done (the underlying strategy & psychology), and how to go about
doing it all. Hiring Professional Stagers from Paradise
Home Staging is the realistic answer. We know exactly what needs to
be done, and why. If you hire us, we will even do all the
work for you, so you have no worries and you can relax, knowing
that everything will be done the right way, and as quickly and
efficiently as possible. Our services are fairly priced and we
implement highly effective strategies and solutions that will
quickly transform your home into a market ready property that
will sell much faster than if it was left
un-staged.
Here is a recent example of staging; one which I believe
typifies the staging experience pretty well... A couple of
months ago, while driving around and visiting open houses, I stumbled upon this beautiful million
dollar plus home. Now this home had been on
the market for right at a full year and hadn't received even a
single offer - that is, until during the previous two weeks.
What changed and all of a sudden attracted all of the latest, new interest? Well, the owners recently took this
home off the market and had it staged! After staging, in less than 30 days,
three
offers were already on the table and it was simply a matter of
pick and choose who the lucky buyer was going to be! Wouldn't you like to see your home get the
same kind of results? It really CAN happen! Even in the
current depressed real estate market, there ARE buyers out there
and homes ARE selling. Just within the last couple of
months alone, I have been in homes and watched as people walked
in the door, looked around, and then made offers to buy right
there on the spot. For those of you who have a home that
has been sitting on the market for months on end; contrary to
what you might be feeling right now, buyers really ARE out
there!, Yes, you could be the next one to finally get your home
sold. Selling your home faster means less stress in your
life, and it almost always results in a better selling price. You just have to do the right
things and your home WILL sell. Your home really CAN sell
Fast, and it may well be possible to do this WITHOUT A PRICE
REDUCTION! Paradise Home Staging can help you to make this
happen! We can vastly improve your chances to sell your
home more quickly, more easily, and to attract better offers.

You can also visit the Home & Garden Channel website to watch a
few episodes of "The Stagers". This will give you a
glimpse (all be it "Hollywood style and a bit dramatized") of
the work that we do. Staging is NOT about just coming into
your home and re-arranging a few things and then it's all done -
there is a LOT of work and strategy that goes into the staging
process. Watch a few of these shows and you'll start to
get the general idea...

Realtor Testimonial:
Alvin, thank you so much for doing such a good job. It really
contributed to the fast sale of the house. Every visitor said
"wow", they really liked the way it was staged. Yes, let's do
business again.

The New York Times: "... a recent study of West Coast homes
found that 17 out of 25 Staged Homes sold within seven days and
the rest within 30 days. All were at or above asking price..."
According to the National
Association of Realtors (NAR):
...The average staging investment
is between 1 and 3 percent of the home's asking price, which
generates a return of 8 to 10 percent.
U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) ...a Staged Home sells, on average, 17% higher than an unstaged
home. Statistics suggest Staged Homes sell at an average
of 6.32% over what they are listed for.
