Sell homes faster and easier with staging.

In the DMV real estate market, most folks know that staging is a necessity. The data is pretty clear: on average, staged homes sell for 17% more and 95% of staged homes sell in 11 days or less.

In general, homes staged by Michael Fowler Creative sell in under a week, with many selling in less than 4 days. Through my experience as a real estate agent, I have learned a few things about staging and its other impacts on the home selling experience. I am able to apply those principles along with my training and education in interior design to make a winning combination.

Here are a few reasons to hire a stager:

Photography: High quality photos are huge in today's market. If your property does not look its best for the lens, it may not get as much attention. Through my mix of real estate experience and design training and knowledge, I can make sure your home is ready for its close up.

Staging helps prospective buyers view the property as well-maintained. A well designed home looks well-maintained. This helps put a prospective buyer's fears to rest. We aren’t trying to hide anything, just put the home in its best light.

Staging can show that a home is move-in ready: Home buying today is expensive. Many buyers want to purchase a property they can move into right away and live in. Even if a property could be upgraded or changed, the right staging will show that the property will be functional, stylish, and beautiful right from move-in day.

Staging provides a template for how buyers can set up their spaces: Some buyers, even the ones that watch too much HGTV, struggle with unique and/or small spaces, like studio apartments or oddly shaped rooms. Buyers sometimes need to be shown how they can make those areas work in their lives. That is where staging can be especially helpful.

Let me be part of your success story with my staging solutions. Whether it is augmenting what you already have or filling an empty house or condo, we can help bring your home to life so anyone can picture themselves in it and your property can sell faster and for top dollar.
