Pros and Cons of Virtual Staging

Trying to sell a home can often be difficult. Everyone likes something different. The question then becomes, how do you present your home so that a wide variety of potential buyers become interested? Enter the practice of staging a home. This is when you furnish your home to show off its most attractive qualities and properties, making it more appealing to buyers.

Taking the art of staging a step further is the practice of virtual staging. With no actual furniture involved, this is a digital rendering of what a potential home would look like when furnished. Here are some of the benefits and drawbacks with virtual staging:

Pros:

If your home is empty, it’s easier to showcase its best features
Considerably cheaper than traditional staging
Grabs the attention of buyers who primarily view properties online
Allows the variation of styling in regard to flex rooms, or rooms that can be used for different purposes

Cons:

If you need to remove items or furniture from photos, this could raise the cost
Buyers can’t see the room as designed in person, sometimes deterring a purchase
Often difficult to configure if the house is occupied, unless you have previous listing photos
