Staging, should I or shouldn't I and what are my options.

I have sold vacant and un-staged homes over and over. Staging is not required. I have heard that staged homes sell faster for more money with staging. Problem with that claim is it is unsubstantiated. You don’t know how much a house would have sold for if it was un-staged. If you are not certain about staging or not.

Staging can cost $2,000 for 2,000 sqft house + month fees. It’s definitely not cheap.

Let me offer a compromise idea:

First 2 weeks, attempt to sell without paying for staging. Leave the house empty. If it does not sell
Second 2 weeks, use virtual staging. Virtual staging is computer generated furniture and furnishings over the picture of your vacant room. Debra Falco does this for about $50/room. Check her work out in this video or go to her website.

If virtual staging does not work, then try the physical staging.

Third 2 weeks, use the actual physical staging. Pay the fees and bite the bullet.

Does open house generate a bidding war?

Does Open House generate a Bidding War

I am sitting 5507 E. Justine Rd. Scottsdale AZ 85254 open. This home is listed at 925k and I got 2 offers. One is mine. I also got 2 listings coming soon and 2 active buyers. The investment of time and energy into an open house during a Seller’s Market is fantastic. I am surprised more Realtors are not doing it.

The Chicago couple are writing a contingent offer because they will need to sell their old house first. They told me they have 4 families bidding on their Chicago home. Here in AZ, they get a 10-day inspection period, my advice was to NOT write contingent because by the end of the 10 days, they will be under contract and it will not be contingent anymore.

The Dallas couple were smarter, they had a house in escrow and set to close. They wrote with me that day. They got their acceptance, that day. By the time of this writing, we are set to close next week.

What’s the difference between Chicago and Dallas? Speed. Dallas was willing to act with urgency. Chicago was too timid and too slow.

In this case, the open house did generate a bidding war. It is important to understand that bidding wars also need speed.

What should your fix and flip look like?

This video shows a perfect example of what your fix and flip should look like when you are done. I teach fix and flipping all over the Country. Looks like my next stop is Newark, NJ. A 19-year-old college student called me to teach him and his pal to fix and flip. He didn’t want a bunch of video training and zoom junk. He wanted live 1on1 training. And since, I have done over 700 of them, he was satisfied with me. Will report results.

Some flippers try to keep this and that on the house to save money. I get it, but the truth is when you rehab a house and leave the old cabinets or floor, it stands out like a sore thumb. Call me to see a bunch of “what not to do pictures”. Take a look at this video and see what you think.
