WHY IS STAGING YOUR HOME FOR SALE SO IMPORTANT?


When selling your property, you’ll likely have a conversation with your realtor about staging your home. Earlier this year, we detailed how CMFTO’s end-to-end, white-glove staging services can transform your space, ensuring that it appeals to a wide range of potential buyers. 
Our team has more than 25 years of experience in home staging, handling everything from editing and organizing to making design decisions that will bring out the best in your home. Additionally, we have a deep bench of vetted trade resources to make sure any necessary updates and repairs, such as painting and refinishing floors, are handled in a timely and expert manner.

Still, you might wonder whether home staging is a “nice to have” or an essential step in selling your home. According to our experience — and current market insights — staging your home for sale is, in fact, a worthwhile investment that can pay significant dividends. 

Recent data from the National Association of Realtors reveals the following 2024 trends: 

  • 81% of buyers‘ agents said staging a home made it easier for their clients to imagine the space as a future home. 
  • Staging a home increased the value of a home up to 5%, compared to homes that were not staged. 
  • Buyers are particularly interested in seeing a staged living room (39%), primary bedroom (36%), and kitchen (36%).

Are you planning on putting your home on the market? We’d love to help you stage your property to bring out its best qualities and help it sell faster and for a higher price. Please reach out to us to discuss your home staging needs.
