2018 Home Staging Statistics - Staging Works!

I'm so excited about our latest, 2018 home staging statistics survey results!  In the survey, we studied the results of over 4,200 staged homes which makes this the largest study of staged homes ever! The results came strictly from HSR Certified Professional Home Stagers from across the world but mostly in the U.S.

Over 4,200 Homes Surveyed Across the World...

Ready for the results?

Yep, over 85% of those 4,200+ STAGED homes saw at least   6-25% MORE from the sale of their HSR professionally staged home than the home in the same market that was NOT professionally staged!

Even I was surprised at these results but in this hot market with the varying price differentials we are seeing from neighborhood to neighborhood, a home that is "dialed-in" for it's potential buyers is seeing HUGE results.

 

The largest percentage of results came in at

 9-12% increase. That is astounding!

    There was a DIRECT correlation between the stagers who charged a bit more and the homes that got the BEST results in price!  In other words, you get what you pay for when it comes to "staging investment". 

When sellers spent just .5% of the sales price MORE on

Staging services, they saw at least a 6% price difference!

In other words, when stagers charged less or stopped short due to the seller's tight budget, the results were not as good.  Those extra, cosmetic updates like paint, new light fixtures or flooring made a HUGE difference in the sales price outcome.
