Ways to Advertise and Promote Your Home Preview

If you believe you can highlight the home’s best assets without the help of a professional, you should take on the project yourself. If you doubt yourself at all, spend the extra on a professional and you will reap the benefits at the sale. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A PROFESSIONAL HOME STAGER True staging pros run a smooth operation. Here are a few things to keep in mind when interviewing companies: Ask for referrals. Don’t hire a stager without doing your homework. Ask friends and acquaintances about their experiences and for a referral. Interview several companies and select the one who will provide you the best value. That doesn’t mean hire the “cheapest.” You get what you pay for. If the price tag is low, it’s likely the quality of service will match that price. Ask for the stager’s references and portfolio. It is fine to start with referrals you solicited from friends, but you want to talk to the stager’s own clients and see pictures of successful projects. Ask questions. Don’t be shy. Do some research and come up with a list of questions for the initial consultation to interview the stager. • • •
