More homes are on the market than at any point in 12 years — giving buyers greater choice and sellers fiercer competition.
Today’s Property Soup article reports that available stock has reached a 12-year high. Buyers have more choice and negotiating power, while sellers must work harder to stand out on price, presentation and positioning.
As a home stager, we see the difference presentation makes. A realistic price is essential, but strong photography, thoughtful styling and a well-prepared home can build value, attract attention and secure viewings before buyers move on.
Great presentation also helps protect your home’s value. It gives buyers fewer reasons to negotiate, supports your asking price and positions your property as a compelling, good-value choice.
