2 Options for Building Your Real Estate Business
Every Realtor knows that curb appeal matters. Buyers can reject a
property within seconds of driving up in front of a house, so it is
important that the house you are selling is staged both outside and
inside so that it will appeal to buyers from the moment they arrive.
It
is a proven fact that ASP® Professionally Staged Homes sell for more
money and sell faster than homes that aren't staged. Staging could
mean more money in your client's pocket when the transaction is
closed. Staging can also be the difference between a property that
shows well and sells quickly, and a property that just sits on the
market with little or no interest.
Staging can be a way for you as the Realtor to make more money from your own business. When you look at our gallery of
Before and After Photos
it is easy to see that you will probably make more money selling the
homes in the After Column, instead of those in the Before Column.
Option 1 - Pay for a Staging Consultation as Part of Your Service
Your goal as a Real Estate Professional is to sell each property you list as quickly as possible and for the highest price. Statistics prove that ASP® Professionally staged homes sell for 5 to 10% more and sell much faster than homes that aren't staged by ASP® Professionals.
So your goal should be to have every home that you list staged by an ASP® Professional, which will ultimately mean
more money in your pocket.
Providing a staging consultation to your potential listing clients helps give you a unique selling proposition to set you apart from other agents that are competing for the listing. The seller will list with the agent that offers them the best service. It will also ensure that your listed properties are top quality, so other agents will look forward to showing your homes to buyers.
