Rockland Home Staging

Why are most Rockland houses not staged?

Homeowners don’t know what staging implementation will cost.
Agents don't want to pay for presentation.
While there is plenty of survey evidence of a faster sale and higher price after professional staging, there is no guarantee for a given house. Nor can there be, since staging is not a solution to an overpriced house.
Homeowners and agents do not sit down together with a stager to explore a solution that would help sell a house. Result: Rockland houses linger unsold.

Cooperation to sell a house: The three-legged stool

Home staging, marketing and price are three essential factors in a fast home sale — the legs of a three-legged stool.

stool In truth, the concept is simple: present it well, market it well, and price it well — and your house will sell ahead of other houses. Which house will a buyer choose to buy: one with all three essential ingredients for a fast sale, or one that is not presented well, is not marketed well, or is overpriced? Try sitting on a two legged stool!

Houses sell quickly when the stager, real estate agent and homeowner work together as a team. This is a proven method to sell your house fast.

The Risk to Children and Pregnant Women from CFLs

In case you thought that compact CFL bulbs are a great idea for your whole house, think again.
