How Virtual Home Staging Speeds Up Property Sales
Transform your listings with our virtual staging services! Real estate professionals can try for free and sell more
Selling an empty property is like trying to sell a book without a cover – it’s complicated. It’s becoming increasingly harder to stand out if your photos don’t meet expectations.
Competition is fierce in a market that has been saturated with demand and limited supply for years, making the use of virtual staging increasingly important.
Unfurnished spaces make it difficult for buyers to visualize their future home. The data confirms this: 75% of properties with home staging sell faster than those without, thanks to the intervention of a professional home stager.
Imagine an empty house that has been on the market for months without generating a single call or receiving low-quality inquiries. Buyers walk in and out without emotionally connecting with the space. This is a common problem faced by thousands of sellers every day.
Virtual home staging changes this scenario. This technique uses advanced technology to digitally decorate empty spaces, showcasing their full potential to both buyers and sellers. The results are clear: virtually staged properties sell in an average of 23 days, compared to 143 days for empty ones.
The difference is not just in time. Buyers respond better to images of furnished spaces created with virtual staging software. Properties with virtual home staging receive 61% more visits, both online and in person.
Additionally, 83% of real estate agents confirm that this technique helps buyers visualize the space as their future home.
The best part? This solution is accessible. With an investment of less than 0.2% of the property’s value, you can transform empty spaces into homes that your clients perceive as ideal. All of this is achieved without moving a single piece of physical furniture.
Most of our clients add the cost of Virtual Home Staging to the property’s sale price. In cases where the perceived value is high, an additional service fee can also be included.
What Is Virtual Staging?
Virtual Home Staging is a digital technique that decorates empty spaces using 3D technology. Unlike traditional home staging, which requires physical furniture and decor, this digital version creates attractive environments without moving a single item.
The process is simple: photos of the empty space are taken, and our designers add digital furniture, decor, and accessories. The result is realistic images that showcase the true potential of each space.
This technique is ideal for:
- Empty properties
- Spaces needing updates
- Properties under construction
- Second-hand homes
- Houses with outdated decor
The magic of virtual home staging lies in its speed and flexibility, allowing for quick renovations. We can change decor styles in hours, not days. Best of all, the cost is just a fraction of what you’d pay for real furniture.
Buyers see inviting, lively spaces, not empty walls. Each room is presented at its best, helping buyers emotionally connect with the property.
How Much Does Virtual Home Staging Cost to my Listing?
To put things into perspective, let’s take a property listed for $500,000. Applying Virtual Home Staging to fewer than 8 images of empty rooms (let’s say 6) costs $156 (0.03%). If the property has more rooms or you want to showcase the garden or outdoor spaces, the price per image drops to $19. For 10 images, the cost is $190 (0.04% of the property value).
It’s remarkably affordable for significantly improving communication and increasing the likelihood of a successful sale. Don’t you think that using a virtual staging service can enhance our marketing efforts?
Proven Benefits of Virtual Stage for Faster Property Sales
The numbers speak for themselves: properties with virtual home staging sell in an average of 23 days, compared to 143 days for unstaged properties. This 120-day difference represents significant time and money savings for sellers and real estate agents.
72% of properties with virtual staging find a buyer within 60 days. This is especially relevant in a market where every day counts. Buyers make faster decisions when they can visualize the real potential of a space.
The impact isn’t limited to sales speed. Sellers see an increase in the final sale price of between 6% and 20%. This increase is due to buyers better appreciating the property’s true value when it’s attractively furnished and decorated.
Virtual staging also represents significant cost savings. With an investment of just 1% of the property’s value, sellers achieve results comparable to physical staging but without the costs of furniture, transport, and storage. This cost efficiency makes virtual staging a smart choice for any seller looking to maximize their return on investment.
Half of staged properties sell without the need for price negotiation. This means less stress during the sales process and better financial results for sellers.
