Turning Home Browsers Into Home Buyers!
"Another
realtor was unable to sell my client's home over a 14 month period in
one of the hottest real estate markets on record. When I took over the
listing, I recommended we work with OTTAWA HOMES ORGANIZED to prepare
the property for sale. After my client's home received Kelly’s personal
"touch" it sold quickly. With OTTAWA HOMES ORGANIZED delivering such
remarkable results for this property, imagine the impact they would have
on the sale of a "hot" property."

Top Ten Reasons You Should Stage Your Home with Ottawa Homes Organized…
1. Over 85% of Home
Buyers Shop for Houses Online. Photos and Visual Appeal are Essential!
At present, the number of homes for sale on the market is at a record high, competition is extremely competitive and buyers have an expectation when they walk through your door. You only have one chance to make a first impression and sell your most expensive asset. 85-95% of home buyers search the internet before they even head outside. A staged house adds quality to a photo and can be the “deciding factor” in whether your home is viewed further.
2. Studies show that the longer your home stays on the market the lower your selling price will be… Don’t settle for less and lower your price…Initial price reductions are usually $5000-$10000. Have your house staged, and avoid the need to decrease your asking price.
3. You Will Make More Money Housing and Urban Development reports that a staged house sells, on average, for 17%-20% higher than a non-staged house.
4. Your House Will Sell Faster = Less Headaches and Hassle The average number of days on the market for a staged house was 13.9 versus 30.9 days for an unstaged house.
5. The Cost of Staging Doesn’t Cost A Dime…it’s all relative In a 2003 HomeGain Survey of over 2000 Realtors it was discovered that sellers who spent up to $1000 Staging their home recovered nearly 200% of the cost in the sale of their home.
6. Many Home Sellers Are Unable To View Their House Objectively If you can’t see objectively, you can’t market effectively. Have a staging professional give you a detailed, step by step, “Consultation” for less than $300 so you can do the work yourself.
7. Less Guesswork and you can “Do It Yourself” A professional home stager can manage your projects from start to finish OR give you an extensive, detailed report based on their expansive knowledge and training to have you “do it yourself”.
8. Only 10% of Homebuyers Visualize the Potential a Home Will Have. Staging a vacant home is critical! You don’t want the benefits of your beautiful home left up to the buyer’s imagination.
9. Tax free Income! Take advantage of your tax-free capital gain by getting every dollar you can in the selling price of your home.
10. Buyers buy on emotion…95% of them. Appeal to home buyers emotions by creating a visually captivating home. Beginning with curb appeal, walking through the door, and focusing on those special universal touches; home buyers will be able to envision themselves and their own family living in and loving your current space.
