 One of the greatest misconceptions around preparing and presenting homes for sale is that the benefits of professional property styling or home staging are only applicable to high-end, expensive properties in the finest areas. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. This week, we demonstrate how with careful planning and execution, we produced results for our client that clearly demonstrate results that prove that professional presentation of a property for sale is both affordable and, most importantly, brings with it significant financial returns. As we have outlined before, despite our honest belief in the benefits that property preparation and home staging offers, we understand the scepticism. In so many cases, there simply isn't the data available to draw an irrefutable, direct conclusion about the benefits. We think we can change that for you, right now, so read on... AT A GLANCE Total Cost of Presenting Property for Sale: $3,165 (1.2% of Sale Price) Value Added by Property Styling: $12,000 (4.8%) Subject Property Details: House – Weatherboard - 3 Bedroom - 1 Bathroom - 1 Living (un-renovated kitchen & bathroom) Land Size: 244 sqm Sale Details: Sold via Private Sale (April 2015): $249,000 Days on Market: 15 Comparative Property Sale Details: (immediately next door - corner block) House - Weatherboard - 3 Bedroom - 1 Bathroom - 1 Living (renovated kitchen & bathroom) Land Size: 254 sqm Sale Details: Sold via Private Sale (May 2015): $237,000 Days on Market: 161  There are a lot of variables that combine to result in the sales price of any given property. In most cases, as individual properties are infrequently sold, there is not usually recent data that we can directly compare our 'post-styling' sales results to. Occasionally however, we strike a situation where it is very clear the impact that our service has had in improving the sales result of a property.
In April 2015, this 3 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom, 1 Living Room, unrenovated property in Soldiers Hill was presented for sale by 3 Pea's Property Styling and sold after only 15 days on the market, for $249,000. At the time of sale, the property next door was also for sale. On the same size block of land, this comparative property was also comprised of 3 Bedrooms, 1 Bathroom and 1 Living area. With the benefit of a corner block location and a renovated kitchen & bathroom, this property was not styled and presented for sale and was sold less than 1 month after our subject property. However, this comparative property sold for $12,000 less after a very lengthy 161 day sales campaign. "Presented for sale by 3 Pea's Property Styling, (the property) sold after only 15 days on the market..."  The results speak for themselves.
