HOW MUCH DOES STAGING REALLY COST ?
HOW MUCH CAN YOU SAVE ?
HERE IS A FORMULA TO FIND OUT
The Real Estate Staging Association (RESA) just released it’s 2009 statistics.
These statistics were gathered nation wide and show the following amazing results:
VACANT & OCCUPIED HOMES PREVIOUSLY ON THE MARKET:
2009 STUDY OF 126 LISTINGS :
UNSTAGED WHEN LISTED = 263 DAYS AVERAGE DOM
AFTER STAGING SAME HOMES= 60 DAYS AVERAGE DOM
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OCCUPIED HOMES:
2009 STUDY OF 167 LISTINGS:
STAGED BEFORE GOING ON THE MARKET =
39 DAYS AVERAGE DOM
VACANT HOMES :
2009 STUDY OF 117 LISTINGS:
STAGED BEFORE GOING ON THE MARKET =
42 DAYS AVERAGE DOM
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These statistics show that staging a home PRIOR to putting it on the market
yields the greatest results.
It saves you AND your clients time and money.
We also see that staging a home after it’s been on the market can help sell it faster.
For more information see RESA’s website at
www.RESA-USA.org.
So we know that staging prior to putting the home on the market can save time.
But how much money does that equal? The above study shows that 126 homes were on the market for an average of NINE MONTHS before they were staged.
The study also shows that 284 homes, vacant and occupied,
that were staged BEFORE they went on the market sold on an average of 41 days.
That is approximately 7 MONTHS FASTER than the UNSTAGED homes!
Here is a an example of how to calculate the savings :
Monthly Mortgage = $1800
Expenses ( Utilities, etc) = $300
Total monthly costs = $2100
Total approximate expenses for the homes that were on the market for 9 months are $18,000 ($2,100 x 9)
If the home was staged before going on the market the savings could have been as much as $14,700 ($2100 x 7)
