Unlock the Secret to Quick Home Sales

Many of our clients ask us - what is the quickest way to sell my house? That is a question you should be prepared to answer with confidence. We have seen time and time again that Pricing, Preparation, and Presentation are the three keys to a successul sale for the most money.  While there are obviously numerous factors that go into the sale of each property, these basic steps should not be overlooked.

Pricing - A property must be competitively and appropriately priced for the neighborhood where it is located. This is not an area where Stagers have input and sellers must rely on the Realtor for their expertise. If a house is getting showings and no offers, or simply not getting showings, then price may be an issue.

Preparation - We've all heard over and over to de-clutter and de-personalize. This is true, but the house must be prepared well in every aspect and be move-in ready. Buyers are looking for a turn-key property. What does this mean? This is a house or property turned over to a buyer ready to move in. Think if all you had to do was turn the key and move in your furniture. There is extreme value in your home being prepared in this manner. A professional stager should be consulted before any property is listed to ensure that it is prepared in the best possible way. There is immense value in an objective third party visiting the house who understands what buyers want to see.

Presentation - After the home is prepared, the presentation is what will ultimately sell your buyer. Stagers create a lifestyle that buyers can experience when they walk through the door. An empty house, even if prepared and priced well, is never the best way to showcase a property. Home Staging simply cannot be overlooked in this competitive market.

Here is a beautiful brand new house that our Portland Home Staging company recently staged. It had been listed for over 6 months while under construction and then for more than 45 days after completion. The home was priced right by the Realtor and prepared perfectly by the builder. Offers were not coming in because it wasn't being presented or shown in the best possible light.

Synergy Staging transformed the home to appeal to the target buyer of this property. It SOLD at the first Open House after being staged!

Sold on Christmas Eve - Only 3 Days After Staging

As professional home stagers we love many parts of our job.  Transforming a house from vacant to unforgettable.  The challenge of surpassing the expectations of our clients.  And of course, seeing the Sold sign go up on the house.

In December one of our investor clients had us stage this fantastic view home in Happy Valley, Oregon.  We've a had a great string of success with this client, but he had been listing his homes when they were vacant, and THEN had us stage them when they hadn't sold for a few months.  After staging they were consistently selling in less than one month.  In this case he opted to stage the home PRIOR to listing the house.  What a difference it made!  We staged the home on Tuesday, December 21 and it sold three days later on Friday, December 24.  What a great Christmas gift!

We have seen time and time again that staging a home BEFORE it goes on the market is simply the BEST approach to selling quickly. There is no substitute for a house that is presented at its absolute best and priced appropriately for the neighborhood.

Here are some before and after pictures of this Christmas Success Story:
