Why Virtual Staging Saves Time and Money [Infographic]

Virtual staging can help you save time and money when selling your house. If you’re ready to put that ‘For Sale’ sign up, here are some of the key benefits of virtual staging.

Benefits of Staging

Staging is a great way to optimize the chances of selling real estate rapidly. Staging advantages include:

• Sell your home faster: A recent NAR (National Association of Realtors) study showed that staged homes sell up to 30 times faster than non-staged properties.
• Encourage buyers to engage: Effective staging targets ideal buyers, encouraging them to connect and engage with the property.
• Enhance images: NAR data suggests over 99% of millennials start their new home search online. Beautiful, staged images help listings to stand out and prompt potential buyers to arrange viewings.
• Maximize space: Staging helps to maximize usable space and improve aesthetics and functionality. 
• Visualization: Staging can help prospective buyers to visualize spaces and think about how they would use different rooms and areas.
• Creativity: Some buyers find it easy to conjure up design ideas and make mental plans, but this is not always the case. Staging can inspire buyers and set the design process rolling.

Traditional vs. Virtual Staging 

Cost: Virtual staging is over 90% less expensive than traditional staging. 

Turnaround time: Virtual staging offers a much shorter turnaround time than conventional staging. Choose the style you like and stage your home in just a few clicks. Traditional staging can take days or even weeks, depending on the availability of designers and staging experts. 

ROI: Statistics show that 75% of sellers secure an ROI (return on investment) of 5%-15% of the asking price when their homes are staged. As virtual staging is over 90% cheaper than traditional staging, the return is likely to be much higher. 

Creativity: Virtual staging gives you the freedom to stage your home as you please. There are no limitations on how creative you can be. With traditional staging, an interior designer or staging expert will decide on the final look.
