Get a wealth of advice to help you decorate your home to sell. Staging expert Debra Gould works from your photos giving you advice by phone during your appointment. You will learn what to keep, what to get rid of, and how to use what you have in better ways.

Home staging, house fluffing and real estate merchandising as it’s also called, has a significant affect on the market value and appeal of your home. Let’s face it, being stuck with a non-selling home is no picnic! Aside from the carrying costs, your whole life is on hold waiting to see when you’ll sell and how much you will get.

When it’s time to sell what is probably your largest financial asset, why wouldn’t you do everything in your power to make sure you are presenting the most marketable product to the market?

Would you sell a used car without detailing it? Would you go on a first date without brushing your hair? No, because you know that first impressions are everything. The same logic holds true when you are selling your home and you’re competing with every other house on the real estate market in your neighborhood and price range.

A Maritz Research study confirmed that decor improvements make a strong impact on home buyers and can ultimately affect market value. A full 63% of buyers preferred a higher priced home that does not require any renovations over a lower priced fixer-upper.

Clients outside the Toronto area use home staging expert Debra Gould’s Virtual Staging Consultation service. And if you’re inside Toronto, it’s also a lower cost alternative to having an in-home visit from the Staging Diva® herself, with less wait time to get an appointment.

The goal of this coaching service is to get you “unstuck”. With information, encouragement and a dose of inspiration, you’ll be able to make decisions and take action to quickly prepare your home for sale or to complete your decorating project.

There are other companies who offer “virtual staging” which is a different service where they manipulate digital photos of empty rooms on a computer, to show furniture for MLS. No actual furniture goes into the house, but they create new images of fully-furnished rooms to show online! We don’t offer that service as we believe it’s a total waste of your money because potential buyers will only be disappointed when they eventually visit your home (which they will do in 99.9% of cases) before making an offer.

Debra Gould personally staged this home to enhance the curb appeal and create the right first impression.

While great listing photos are critical, especially when you consider that 90% of Canadian buyers and 70% of US buyers shop for a house online before ever calling a real estate agent, having great MLS shots that bear no resemblance to the actual home they will visit does more harm than good. You don’t want a prospective buyer to feel let down as soon as they enter your home! This will not put them in the mood to make an offer.

Home staging is about romancing prospective home buyers, not just in your online photos, but right through when they drive up to your home and admire the curb appeal, step through your front door and in every room until they’ve experienced the whole property!

How Six Elements Virtual Staging Works

“The virtual staging session with you was great! I have been busy, rearranging furniture and getting the accent pieces we discussed. Your suggestions will really make the correct impact. Homeowners are so accustomed to not seeing the little things that turn buyers off. With the market slowing steadily I think it is very important that every detail is looked at critically. Thanks for a wonderful session.” Mariann OBrien
