This is the success story of team member David Moon. I blogged last month about David joining our team and staging his first vacant house, Introducing Team Member David Moon. Today I am excited to announce that we found out that this home, listed on 03/12/2008 (and staged immediately) after went under contract on 04/11/2008! What is even more exciting to learn (I just learned this a few minutes ago myself) the sellers on this home actually raised the price after staging from $219,950 to $225,000!

Fabulous job David!!! You did a great job showing the value staging brings to the table, both in higher list price and a super quick sale!
If you are an agent or seller/investor and still on the fence, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Contact your local professional stager to see how staging can help increase your business.
