How This Atlanta Investor Sold His Home In 24 Hours
As a professional home stager in Atlanta, I've had the distinct pleasure of working with many investors. What I've discovered is that most have worked staging into the budget - resulting in home after home getting professionally staged. It's truly a win-win proposition for everyone involved; including the buyer. The investor sells more quickly, the agent on the listing leverages the fact that the home looks great and the buyer is provided with solutions on how to decorate their new home.
In the case of this home, the investor had me stage on a Thursday and the following day the home went under contract. Here's precisely what he did:
Now here are a few photos of the home as it appeared to the buyers:

The Effectiveness of Home Staging
I read an interesting blog post this morning written by a Broker/Realtor by the name of Loreena Yeo. In it, she describes a home in Texas that would have a much easier time of getting their desired price if they would only seek the advice of a professional home stager and an agent that believes in the value of staging. You can read the entire post here. As a professional home stager in Atlanta, Georgia, I couldn't agree more. I've had the great privilege of working with many home sellers and have not only helped them obtain their desired price but also have helped them sell more quickly.
Case in point, this town home, pictured below, had sat on the market for 2 years. The frustration the homeowners had experienced had reached an all time high. With reason. Two years is an incredibly long time for a home to sit. The agent who had this listing had used us in the past and had recommended that they have the home professionally staged.
In the initial visit, I entered the home using the buyers-eye. My objective is to try and emulate the same experience the potential buyers were experiencing. In this particular home, I simply wasn't connecting with the home on an emotional level. The home was empty; void of anything that would allow me to envision living here.
After we staged the home, I remember locking the door behind me and knowing with all the certainty in the world that we'd be de-staging this home soon. I was right. The home went under contract in less than 8 weeks after we staged it.
Here's how the home looked before and after:


This is what the potential buyers were seeing when they toured the home.
