*Staging costs considerably less than a price reduction on the house. 

Decorating a home to appeal to the greatest number of people, or as the professionals call it, 'staging your house,' greatly increases the chances for a quick sale.  We have full design services to set up and stage your house, whether it's vacant or occupied.


After we stage your house we will provide food for a Realtor Open House.  Invite area Realtors to view your newly designed house for sale.  We can also place the house on our web site with a link to the listing for extra exposure.  Since Home Squad offers  services other than just staging we believe that our other clients will want to view the 'Staged houses for sale' page.

What you need to know

  • Buyers make up their mind about a house 10-20 seconds after they walk in the door.  First impressions are key to selling your house fast.  Houses should be staged before they are even put on the market.
  • Research shows that staged houses sell faster and for more money than those that are not.  According to HUD staged homes can sell for 5-22% higher and 40-60% faster.
  • Sellers typically will get at least a 200% return on the money invested in staging their property. 
  • The cost of staging is usually less than a price reduction, that means more profit for you!  Just think, you could invest up to $2000 on staging instead of reducing the sale price of the house by the typical $10,000-20,000.  You do the math.
  • Staging your house for sale may be tax deductible (if the profit is considered taxable income), save your receipt

        How it works:                                                                             

  1. First we come to the property to take pictures and notes.
  2. We will give you an estimate for the staging within 24-48 hours.
  3. We set up a day to come back to stage the property.
  4. On staging day we will ask you to leave the house while we work.  This is crucial to the design process.
  5. We will call you or your Realtor when we are done and unveil your redesigned space.
  6. We may leave suggestions or ideas for any further work we think you may want to do or have done.
