FAQ's

"I'm good at decorating, why can't I stage my own home?"

Because a person is emotionally attached to his/her home, it can be difficult to be objective and look at your home as a potential buyer. A professional home stager, Home Scenes by Maxx is experienced and objective in creating a look that appeals to today's buyer - focused on the maximum effect with the minimum. It's what we do every day.

"Why can't home buyers look past the personal stuff?"

Many buyers (about 90%) can't visualize your home's potential when all your stuff is still there. You want your home to look like most of the work's been done, and all they have to do is move in!

"Why would I want to spend more money in having my home professionally staged? I'm trying to get my house sold, not put more money into it!

In a slow market, the cost of staging your home is typically less than your first price reduction. And, research shows that professionally staged homes sell more quickly and for a higher price than unstaged homes - in any market.

Homes professionally staged sell 50% quicker and for 6-10% more money than unstaged homes.
