Staging FAQ's

Although professional staging is a relatively new industry, people have been "fixing up" their homes to sell for decades.  These days due to HGTV home buyers have an "expectation" and are willing to pay quite a bit more for a home that is "model home" looking.

If you could get 10% more on the sale of your home, how much would that be?

What is home staging?

Home Staging is the preparation of a home to sell by a professional who specializes in this form of design and has been certified and trained on the art of home staging.  Many definitions you have seen no doubt stop after the word “sell” and that is part of the big misconception and devaluation of home staging. A professional home stager has the resources and can objectively view the home as a product and highlight its assets while downplaying its flaws. The home seller cannot view their home objectively, while many successful Realtors do not have the time or trade resources to properly stage a home.

How much does home staging cost?

For as little as a few hundred dollars you can have a detailed list of what you can do to maximize the value of your home!  

Why can't I stage my own home?

Home sellers are usually incapable of successfully staging their own home. Why? Because our homes are like our children, we don’t always see all of its flaws. We’ve gotten used to the way it looks and in fact it is difficult emotionally to change it. If you can’t view something objectively then you are unable to market and package it effectively. Not to mention most home sellers don't "stage" homes everyday for a living. That’s what HSR Certified professionals are for and that is where the greatest returns come in.

Why do I need to stage?

Even if your house sells quickly in a good market, it doesn’t mean it sold for the amount it would have sold for had it been professionally staged. Remember, HSR Certified professionally staged homes sell on a conservative average for10%+ more in a good market (see the Latest Home Staging Statistics).

Can't home buyers use their imagination and look past my decor or empty rooms?

Only a mere 10% of home buyers can actually visualize the potential of a home and most of these folks are "investors" or "flippers" who will hammer you on price.  In our Consultation walk through, I will identify those "price eroding" factors of your home, so that you can do the simple fixes that maximize returns. 

This is also why having a vacant home professionally staged is so important. Buyers cannot visualize size and scale so furniture helps to give them a frame of reference.

Three Phases to Home Staging

01.

Maximizing What You Have, so That it Appeals to Buyers

You will be amazed at the dramatic transformations I will be able to accomplish in a single Staging Day using what you already have!  Successful home staging must make financial sense and I am experienced and trained in making the most of your current belongings in order to turn buyer traffic into offers.  We will start with a Consultation in order to assess your space.

02.

Recommended Purchases or Rentals as “Investments” in Selling Your Home

Working within your budget, I will only recommend purchases that will MORE than pay for themselves in the speed and dollar amount of sale. During the Staging Day, I will bring in accessories in order to get fantastic photos for your Realtor’s marketing efforts and to attract Internet traffic.  Over 95% of home buyers are online searching for homes BEFORE they visit a home, so we want to make an excellent first impression and compel them to come to your home.

03.

Simple Yet Dramatic Cosmetic Updates and Changes for ROI

Depending on your budget and timing, we may suggest paint, electrical and other cosmetic improvements that will result in a high return on investment.  I will tell you which rooms and improvements are “worth it.”

8-Steps In Each Room So Buyers Fall In Love

Honey Bee Staging and Design believes that successful staging is the art of using marketing and design techniques to create an environment that buyers can “aspire” to.  “If I buy this house, I can live like this.”  At Honey Bee Staging and Design we use the art of “positioning” to create several “emotional connection points” throughout the home so that when a buyer steps into the house they “feel home.”  This is it.  This is the one. 

What does “feeling home” look like?  For Honey Bee Staging and Design, it’s a combination of eight things we analyze in each room in order to create a lasting impression for the homebuyer:
F
First Impressions

We will walk through your home room by room, taking note of our first impressions, what grabs us, what glares at us, and what gives us a feeling of home.

E
Eliminating Clutter

The packing starts now, as we pack away a good percentage of everything in the room in order to create a more clean, open and spacious feel.

E
Emphasizing the Positive Elements of the Space

Finding your beautiful focal points, we will emphasize what we love about the room and hide or distract the negative aspects of the rooms.

L
Lighten Up

Focusing on lighting and color, we will make each room into a bright, warm and inviting space buyers can respond to.

H
Home Buyer’s Appeal

In order for a buyer to “feel home,” they need to not be reminded of this being your home.  We’ll depersonalize the space while retaining the warmth and fun of photos.

O
Obligations - Cleaning and Repairs

The dirty work speaks for itself but is often overlooked because you’ve lived here for so long.  Let’s get rid of the buyer’s mental repair list by doing it ourselves.

M
Modernizing

This involves updating your style and building simple accessories out of what you already have to create clean lines and form.  In some cases, we’ll recommend purchases as valuable investments in the staging process.

E
Emotional Connection Points - Creating the “Wow Factor”

This is the fun part and is a huge focus of our positioning strategy.  We’ll show you how to build in these subtleties in order to make the buyers subconsciously desire to live here and “feel home.”  The “emotional connection points” are where marketing strategy really comes in to play.

Home staging is no longer optional in this real estate market. It's what will make the difference in whether your home sells or not.

Top Tips for Choosing the Right Home Stager for Your Project

Make Sure to Review the Home Stager’s Portfolio (Style)

Every home stager designs differently, so don’t assume we are all equal and have the same aesthetic. 

Ask to See Examples of Their Inventory in a Space

Each home stager shops differently and we can all agree that Walmart furniture is not the caliber of Restoration Hardware furnishings.

Make Sure the Scale Matches the Size of the Room and Home

The scale of furnishings in a space matter and should fill the space appropriately.  Small scale living room furniture in a large, grand space will look like doll’s furniture:-).  Conversely, a king bed in a smaller sized bedroom will cramp the room.

Make Sure the Staging Matches the “Luxury Level” of the Home

Every home is unique, so it’s critical to match the furnishings with the level of luxury the buyer demographic expects in the home.

Make Sure the “Style” Matches the Style of the Home

Architectural style matters and buyers have an expectation of what they want to see inside the home many times by looking at the outside of the home.   

Education and Reputation Matter

The staging industry is not much different than the real estate industry, so check a stager’s credentials, proof of insurance and website testimonials.  I’m dedicated to enhancing your reputation with the quality of staging and design we put into your listing.  I know that when you look good…I look good, so I’m excited about this potential partnership!

“Home staging used to be optional.  Today, it’s a necessity in selling a house.”Barbara Corcoran (Shark Tank)

“Not professionally staging your home in this real estate market is like leaving money on the table in the sale of your home.”

- Audra Slinkey - Home Staging Resource

Buying a house is more than a financial decision; it is an emotional decision as well. Buyers aren't just making an investment in a property, they are purchasing a place to call home; to raise their children; to begin a new chapter; or to retire to a new season of life."

John Smaby
