“My first home staging project resulted in multiple offers within 24 hours and a sales price of $16,000 over the asking price. The homeowners, realtor, and their friends were so impressed with how I styled the home to sell that I received several referrals from that one job.

Does Home Staging Work in Any Market?
“A house is a product that has to be packaged and marketed to the right target audience at the right price,” says home staging expert Debra Gould in her book, Staging Diva® Ultimate Design Guide: Home Staging Tips, Tricks and Floor Plans.
