How to simplify a complicated process

Explaining the home staging process to a seller can be extremely complicated for a real estate agent or even a home stager. The issue is that the agent and stager have been through the process multiple times and understand all of the nuanced intricacies that are involved with home staging. But on average a sellers may not have gone through this process for upwards of seven years. Things have changed since the last time they listed a home for sale and one of the agents duties is to catch their seller up with current practices. 

To help with this, Spade and Archer is delivering new and improved paper brochures to nail down the three most important home staging topics. 

  1. Why should a seller stage?

  2. What does a seller need to do to make a staging happen?

  3. What are the differences and similarities between Conventional and Guaranteed Home Staging®?

Our first challenge to address is why a seller should stage. Ultimately the best reason to invest in staging is to have a healthy return on investment. We have assembled a number of studies aimed to prove that home staging is a great investment, in Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington.

During the process of selling a home sellers are often overwhelmed. They are living their normal, already stressful lives and are now expected to take on essentially a second full time job of getting ready to sell. At Spade and Archer we have made this process exceptionally simple and readily accessible at any time and from any place. We have distilled the process down to four major times the seller or seller’s representative will need to initiate contact with Spade and Archer to move forward with the process. 

This gives the seller total control over timing of the process without overwhelming them with complicated intricate processes that only add stress. All four of the steps can be done 24 hours a day through our website or by calling us directly. No matter the sellers level of computer literacy, they will be taken care of throughout the home staging process.

The only other time we encounter a complicated concept that leads to confusion with sellers is deciding whether or not they want to pay-up-front with Conventional Home Staging or pay-at-close with Guaranteed Home Staging®.  As you may know Spade and Archer is the World’s First Guaranteed Home Stager® and invented this concept in 2018. We found the infographic below as a great way to illustrate the differences between the two different payment structures. 

Only Spade and Archer takes the time to put ourselves in your shoes and understands where your pain points might be. We understand that selling a home is one of the most stressful times in a person’s life. We also understand that the staging of your property should be the least stressful part of the process.
