“When I stage, I am creating a unique envi- ronment that triggers emotional response.”

— Lisa Shipley, ASP Certified Staging® Professional™, Imagine

Home Staging is the art of professionally preparing a home for sale in order to help achieve the best price in the fastest time. Today staging is no longer something “nice to have.” It’s mandatory for maximizing equity and getting the listings sold. Statistics show: staging can reduce a listing’s time on the market by 50% and increase a selling price by up to 17%! An estimated 63% of buyers are willing to pay more for a house that is move-in ready. People buy based on feelings. Whether perceived, or real, they are buying a “way of life.” Most buyers make a decision about a house within 15 seconds of walking in the door. Sure, they have a list of “must-haves,” but the real truth is when they see a home that gives them that “wow” — they want it, and they want it now!

That first impression is very important — make the most of it. Most buyers have no ability to imagine living in a home that’s overly personalized, they only know what they see. To compete in the marketplace, a house needs to be presented better than its competition. At Imagine, we know how to put the best face on your home so you can sell it faster and for more money. We use proven staging techniques, provide written reports, and offer consulting services on color, staging, and design. We are passionate about the quality of our work and determined to exceed your expectations!
