Without any reference points, the vast majority of potential buyers cannot picture their furnishings in a room, may have trouble visualizing a room&#8217;s function and may walk away from a property not realizing that it could be the perfect home for them.</p>
<p>Contact us today so we can turn your new construction or investment property into a model home that your target market can picture themselves living in.</p>
<p>We can plan and execute your staging project to include rental or purchase of furnishings and decor.  To avoid monthly rental fees, we can purchase furniture and accessories to dress your property, which can later be sold to recoup part of the costs.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t let potential buyers walk away from your property!  Stage the home so potential buyers can picture themselves living in the home and have us take stunning photographs to draw potential buyers into viewings.</p>
<p>You wouldn&#8217;t sell your car without having it detailed, so why would you sell a home without staging it?</p>

<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-166" title="Photo Staging Before and After" src="http://www.hshomestaging.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/photo-staging-ba-300x133.jpg" alt="Photo Staging Before and After" width="300" height="133" />Photo Staging is a recession busting marketing powerhouse service exclusively  offered  to real estate agents working with HS Home Staging.<br />
Intended for  your listings that are &#8220;show ready&#8221; (immaculately clean, decluttered &amp; ready  to show potential buyers), a Photo Staging session consists of up to two hours  of home staging using furniture and decor already in the home and taking  professional photographs carefully composed to highlight the best features of  the property.<br />
Photographs are usually ready by the next business day for you  to upload directly to your web site, post to the  MLS and use for your feature  sheets.<br />
Our photographer can also film virtual tours at the same time and  you can upload these directly to your web site, without having to wait for a  virtual tour company to get them on their server.</p>
<p>You get professional  real estate photos and virtual tours to show to potential buyers where they look  first: online.</p>
<p>These photos are a powerful example comparing photos taken  by the Realtor on a listing that languished on the market for 6 months.  Four  days after posting the Photo Staging images online, this property SOLD!</p>
<p>Below is a sample of what we do.</p>

<p>Hire <strong>HS Home Staging</strong> or recommend us to your clients to have a  listing that will show beautifully, sell more quickly and help prevent the  listing from becoming stale. Whenever possible, stage a property before taking  photographs for promotional materials so your listing stands out from the  crowd.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-222" title="HS Homestaging" src="http://www.hshomestaging.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Living-Room-300x199.jpg" alt="HS Homestaging" width="300" height="199" />We provide the design know-how to ensure that your listing will  capture potential buyers&#8217; hearts.  We offer a fresh perspective, a keen eye,  efficient execution, added value to your clients and powerhouse marketing  materials.  We can be the &#8220;bad guys&#8221; so you don&#8217;t have to.</p>
<p>If you have a  listing that&#8217;s ready to show, our Photo Staging services give you up to two  hours of home staging with the furnishings in the home and professional  photographs to draw potential buyers into viewing your listing.  Our  photographer can also take virtual tours at the same time and provide you with  files, ready to post on your web site, usually within two business days.  No  more waiting for tour site operators or the MLS!</p>
<p>For listings where your  clients are ready to do what needs to be done (or hire those that can!) to stage  their home in need of refreshment, we are happy to provide an Home Staging  Consultation.  During the consultation, your clients will learn everything they  can do to stage their home, inside and out, so the property shows with it&#8217;s best  face forward. Once your clients implement the recommended changes, we can come  back to detail the home staging and take professional photographs. Then you can  do your job of marketing the property effectively.</p>
<p>For homes that need  more than a little TLC or redesign we can manage home staging projects; assist  with trades; select, install and take down furnishings and decor for rental or  purchase; offer colour consultations and liaise with your clients.</p>
<p>Contact us today to take your listings to the next level.</p>
