Condoguys.com - Home Staging to Sell your Condo, Apartment or Townhome in Vancouver

Staged homes sell faster and at higher prices, so the effort and minor expense invested in the process can definitely put dollars in your pocket at closing time.

Preparing a home for sale requires seeing it from a buyer’s perspective -- a bit of a challenge when you've lived in your home for years. Although buyers know your home isn't brand-new, they are looking for a “like-new” space that shows care, quality and cleanliness. This is where home staging comes in.

Condoguys Staging is committed to make sure your condo reflects its maximum value in photos, advertising, and for showings. Our staging consultation is included, no-charge for Condoguys clients as we feel it is an invaluable marketing tool to make sure you get the maximum selling price for your home.

Complementary Staging Consultation

Home presentation may be the most under-estimated factor when selling and doesn’t have to cost much. Simple home cleaning, organization, and staging techniques can make the difference of thousands of dollars in your selling price, or even affect whether you sell at all.

But it’s very hard for a home owner to know where to start, how much to spend, or what will provide the best return on investment.

In order to maximize the selling value of your home, Condoguys provides all our clients with a no-charge home consultation and our Condo Seller Home Preparation Checklist. From basic organization and cleaning a home-owner can do themselves to staging and renovations options, Condoguys will perform a cost benefit analysis on each project to help determine how to maximize your ROI and have your home show its best.

Optimize Your Return on Investment

Some homes need a little, some need a lot. Likewise, staging can range from simply removing clutter and re-arranging furniture to completely re-furnishing your home. Usually staging costs are significantly less than performing renovations and offer a much better return on investment for sellers.

Research shows that even a small investment in home staging can yield considerable gains when selling a home. According to a study by Staged Homes, staged properties sell for an average price of 6.9% more and 50% faster than non-staged properties. In a 2007 survey by Home Gain, it was found that home staging can yield a 340% return on investment to the average seller; while a 2008 survey by RESA (Real Estate Staging Association) found that vacant homes sold 85% faster, and occupied homes sold in 89% less time on the market when staged.

For most homes costly renovations are not needed; but sometimes a home may need a litle extra TLC. You don’t want a potential buyer to get caught up on the fact that a tap leaks, the carpet is worn and stained, windows or walls have cracks, or tiles are missing. If renovations are needed, Condoguys can help out by providing a list of approved contractors and even schedule and coordinate the repair work at your request.
