Staging & Market Prep Stats

“I feel it’s my fiduciary duty to get our clients the maximum ROI.” — Juli

Preparing a home for sale isn’t just cosmetic — it’s strategic.
79% of sellers invest between $12,000–$30,000 (depending on property size!) to properly prep their home before hitting the market.

In today’s high-tech world, 90% of buyers view homes online first.
The layout, design, styling, and professional photography directly shape their first impression — and often determine whether they book a showing.

Buyers overwhelmingly want move-in-ready properties:
63% are willing to pay more for a home that feels updated, clean, and emotionally appealing.

Good staging will run you anywhere from $4,500-10,000 depending on the size of the home.
