When Real Estate Meets Home Staging
The arrival of Spring and the easing of lockdown restrictions have significantly impacted the mood of all of us and we’re all starting to see things from a brighter perspective.
Finally, a warmer weather is approaching and we’re all feeling more inspired and ready to show the world that in the silence of our cities we have never stopped working and blossoming, just like Spring.
Many people are going to want to spend time outside their homes, soaking up the sun and enjoying nature but many people will also be looking into buying a new property, maybe more spacious or with better light or views to reflect the transformation we all have gone through during these hard times.
That’s when people will be turning to real estate agents to seek guidance while looking for a new property or selling their current one.
And that’s when real estate agents need to come prepared.
Home staging is the key to a better and faster sale, allowing potential buyers to visualise their dream home as something more tangible.
Therefore real estate agents need to show their properties with more confidence and tenacity. When we hear about home staging we’re not only talking about the art of displaying what could be, we’re giving you insight into a powerful marketing tool that it’s becoming a real game-changer in the housing sector.
This is why our Extended Education programme is once again coming up with everything you need to flourish in the business.
This time in particular we’re looking at budding real estate agents that feel like it’s time to up their game and start using the home staging technique to increase their sales.
Our course in Home Staging as a Marketing Tool for Real Estate Agents will emphasize not only why your clients need staging but why it’s essential that you master this technique to move up the ladder in your profession.
In no time you’ll be able to join the home staging community while also bringing your expertise in the real estate sector, differentiating yourself from other professionals.
With this secret weapon, you will thrive and join a community of professionals that have found the key to an enduring career.
Want to hear it straight from the source?
Take it from Alex Willcocks, director at Burbeck Group and longtime property developer:
“Anyone who is serious about selling property needs to be serious about home staging and property styling. The financial benefit of staging a property is night and day, and if you can’t see that you probably shouldn’t be in the game.â€ÂÂ
Martyn Baum, PPNAE, director of Martyn Baum Consultancy echoes Willcocks’ message by adding that “Home staging is not new. In fact, it’s not even on its way into the mainstream agency – it is already here and if you are not supporting your sellers with preparing their property ready for sale, you are missing out as your competitors will be. Having a strong relationship with a quality home stager will not only help you sell your client’s properties quicker, and for a better price, but it will also build business relationships with your clients that will last a lifetime.â€ÂÂ
We understand you want facts, so let’s show you that numbers don’t lie.
You still might feel tempted to stay in your comfort zone, after all, if you’re doing well why risk investing in something when you don’t know the outcome? We ask you, why not?
We’re not talking about completely changing the way you conduct your business but to add something to improve it. With a little bit of effort and curiosity you’ll be able to stay on top of your game while also selling faster and growing your business.
