Let's move this sale forward 

Dear {{first_name}} 

Thank you for contacting us and considering Your company name   as your home staging service.

This proposal outlines the right choices for your real estate business,  along with the detailed description of our plan of action.

Every good real estate company knows a beautifully staged home earns more commission and tends to sell faster than a house that is not. That is why staging homes for us goes way beyond just choosing a chair, sofa, or a rug...

It's an art form. 

Overview 

The reason why home staging is so important is that it can turn around a sale that otherwise wasn't moving. Nowadays people are not only looking at a price and location.

Purchasing a home is an emotional decision and making the buyer feel at home will certainly make you far less vulnerable to low-ball offers and requests.

Keeping your home show ready

Our main goal is to make the buyer feel at home when they are touring the property. Our home staging will provide your buyers with an idea of how furniture could be placed while making it look like it should be featured in a magazine.

Initial walkthrough

During the initial consultation, our home staging experts will share their opinions, advice, and plans for highlighting the selling features of the home. Our goal is to solve awkward spaces and make every foot count by recommending only high-return improvements. 

We will send you a list of recommended items to be purchased, suggested furniture arrangements, and anything else that will help turn your home sale into a success story. 

De-cluttering and rearranging 

Our rearranging and the de-cluttering plan is to arrange furniture for optimal flow, maximizing the space, and making sure the photos taken afterward will be as amazing as it gets.

Ideally, we prefer to start the process before getting the property on the market, but I am sure our high return recommendations will be a game-changer in your case as well. 

Minor renovations and remodeling

We have noticed two of your rooms will need a fresh coat of paint. Our experts will help you to choose the right color and finish the work in no time. Additionally, some landscaping might be required, as well as replacing the countertops and light fixtures.

Decorating

Every recommendation we make is based on the exact property, the location, demographics, and more. In your specific case, we will place art, mirrors, and wall decor for maximum impact. 

Rugs, towels, and other accessories will be placed to create a warm and welcoming feeling. We will be using Feng Shui guidelines, as it has proven to have a positive effect on the home sale price. 

Plan of action 

After you sign our proposal, we will schedule a follow-up call to finalize the details and decide on the best starting date. 

Our suggested plan of action is:  

Step One

CREATING A VISION
During the initial consultation and walk through, our experts will come up with the best strategic interior design plan to control the visual and create a "warm home" atmosphere in your property. 

Step Two

RENOVATING AND STAGING
Once the initial plan is made, we will start with needed minor reparations, renovations, decorating and staging. Our goal is to make sure your home spends 90% less time on the market than similar properties.

Step Three

READY FOR SALE
Once your home is beautifully designed and staged to perfection, you will be ready to put it back on the market with a price tag over your initial asking. 

Meet Cheryl's Home

Cheryl, the owner of real estate agency Cheryl's home, found herself on the fence after one of her properties spent close to a year sitting on the market. After trying out a few different sales strategies, she contacted Your company name.

The solution and the outcome 

The first problem we faced was the fact the property was still occupied. Our goal was to work with the owners and Cheryl to de-clutter the living space and make adjustments that highlight the house's best features. 

We installed a mix of modern and more classic furnishings and created an interior that felt both, familiar and fashionable. 

After taking it off-market and re-staging it, a newly renovated home received an offer of $90,000 over the asking price, within 9 days after putting it back on the market.

Here is what Cheryl has to say about the experience: 

“Your company name did an outstanding job staging my property for sale. I found them to be very talented, knowledgeable, and passionate about home design. They were quick to turn a property from "average" to "stunning" while adding a beautiful, relaxing, and peaceful feeling about it. It was a pleasure working with them!”

A staged home gets you your commission sooner. Fact.

A real estate agent who spends close to 1 percent on staging sees over a 10 percent return on investment. Source: 'National association of realtors'                                                               

We average on 150 properties per month, and many of those sell in less than 30 days. Our eye for detail is there to spell the difference between attracting buyers or having your home on the market for months. 

Our usual price comes to around 1% of the real estate listing price, which in your case would be as follows: 

“Your company name did an amazing job at making one of my condos look fantastic and ready for sale. The initial walkaround lasted only about an hour, but it was enough for a complete transformation. They made it look like a perfect dream home. It almost made me want to get it for myself!”
