How much does house staging cost in Perth?

Making your home stand out in a competitive real estate market goes beyond just listing its features. Have you ever wondered what sets apart a property that not only attracts attention but generates multiple offers, leading to a faster sale at a premium price? This is where the art of house staging comes into play.

Home staging, also referred to as house staging or property styling, is a service through which a styling and logistics prepare or ‘stage’ a home for sale.

Home staging is gaining popularity in Perth, and for good reason. A beautifully staged home can captivate potential buyers, attract more offers, lead to a faster sale and boost the sales value of your home – often above the asking price.

And it’s not just luxury homes that are taking advantage of house staging; villas, units and apartments also reap the benefits of staging. Empirical evidence shows that houses, units, and villas in the low to medium price brackets often have tremendous return on investment for home staging costs.

Speak to just about any experienced real estate agent these days and they’ll tell you: “you can’t afford not to stage your home”.

So, how much does house staging cost?

House staging prices cover furniture and accessories being brought in to present the home in its most appealing form. This engages buyers and translates across photos featured in online listings and home opens.

Home staging pricing packages vary, with options to suit different homes and budgets.  You might consider full staging or partial staging; where you only stage a few rooms rather than the whole home.

There are some fixed costs involved  for home staging. These include items such as transporting the furniture to and from your home and professional picture hanging. Aside from that, house staging costs vary depending on the size of the house, the number of rooms requiring staging, whether it’s a full or partial home staging and the level of styling required.

Consider home staging an investment, not an expense.

Professional home staging is an investment that more than pays for itself. A 1% improvement on the asking price is often all you need to make a return on your investment. A professionally staged home can attract more potential offers and lead to a much quicker sale – often at first home open – and, in our recent experience, delivers offers above sales expectations. 

Real estate agent sentiment also supports our experience.  A survey of the top real estate agents in the LJ Hooker network in Australia, discovered that styling a property could boost the final sale price by between 7.5 per cent and 12.5 per cent.
