Home Staging – Dealing With Sensitive Situations

January 27th, 2010 Posted in Real Estate

What do you do if you are a real estate professional and you have just walked into a home you know can sell for more money with just a few simple changes?

Selling a home often takes the homeowner through several emotional stages. Leaving the place they have called home and love exactly the way it is can be difficult for many people. The last thing your client wants to hear is that their home isn’t "good enough."

There is a fine line between insulting and helpful when making common sense suggestions. By helping a potential lister see the light of day you do not want to risk losing the listing. Here is how home staging experts come in handy! Teaming-up with a knowledgeable professional will increase your bottom line and will help you obtain new listings.

Let the staging pros do the work for you.

Like:

Make the beds day-to-day.

Clear away the dated wallpaper.

Cleanse the windows and walls.

Handle the dishes and clean every day.

Take away family photos…etc.

Neutralize along with de-clutter.

Not only will the blame be squarely on the home staged if the property doesn’t sell in two minutes, but you will remain the real estate professional they have hired.

Remember that you will want to work with a staging professional you get along with. They will beyour second-string, as it were. You want to work with only someone that will compliment you and reaffirm your clients choice to work with you!

Ponder paying for the staging service directly. You can allowthis service as a signing gift and deduct it from your taxes. regardless, it is a win-win for the busy real estate agent. Sensitive situations will no longer be your issue!
