Stage

Home Revival offers vacant staging, owner-occupied staging, or a mix of both. 

When preparing a home for sale, staging plays a crucial role in attracting buyers and maximizing value. 

1. Vacant Staging

What is it?

When a home is completely empty, we bring in furniture, décor, and accessories to create a warm, inviting space.

Best for:

• New construction homes

• Motivated flippers and real estate agents

• Vacant homes after the seller has moved out

Pros:

✔ Creates a beautifully designed, model-home feel

✔ Helps buyers visualize furniture placement, room flow, and actually makes rooms appear larger

✔ Gives the home a polished, move-in-ready look

2. Owner-Occupied Staging

What is it?

The homeowner continues living in the property while it is on the market, and staging involves decluttering, rearranging, and adding décor to enhance appeal.

Best for:

• Sellers still residing in their homes

• Homes with quality existing furniture that simply need a style refresh

Pros:

✔ More budget-friendly since it utilizes existing furniture

✔ Helps maintain a lived-in but well-maintained appearance

✔ Can be done quickly with minor updates and enhancements

3. Combination Staging (Hybrid Staging)

What is it?

A mix of both staging styles—using the homeowner’s furniture while supplementing with professionally-curated pieces to elevate the home.

Best for:

• Homes that are partially vacant (e.g., seller has moved some, but not all, furniture)

• Properties that need updated décor to complement existing furniture

Pros:

✔ Cost-effective—uses what’s available while enhancing with contemporary touches

✔ Flexible and customizable for different budgets and needs

✔ Gives a fresh, polished look without fully furnishing the home

Top 10 Reasons to Stage Your Home Before Selling

1. Sell Faster – Staged homes spend less time on the market compared to non-staged homes.

2. Higher Sale Price – Staging can increase perceived value, often leading to higher offers from buyers.

3. Make a Strong First Impression – Buyers form an opinion within seconds; staging ensures a positive and lasting impact.

4. Stand Out in Listings – Professionally staged homes look better in photos, attracting more online views and showings.

5. Highlight the Home’s Best Features – Staging draws attention to a home’s strengths while minimizing imperfections.

6. Help Buyers Visualize the Space – Thoughtful staging makes it easier for potential buyers to see themselves living in the home.

7. Create a Move-In Ready Feel – Staged homes look well-maintained and ready for immediate occupancy, appealing to buyers.

8. Reduce Price Negotiations – A well-presented home gives buyers fewer reasons to ask for price reductions.

9. Compete with New Builds – Staging gives older homes a fresh, updated look that can rival brand-new properties.

10. Staging Pays for Itself – The cost of staging is often less than a future price reduction, making it a smart investment for sellers.
