Great News for Hometenders of America. After being in business for over 8 years now we just hit a benchmark of 5000 Homes! Yes, we have helped over 5000 Homeowners and Realtors sell their vacant homes by putting a qualified Hometender/Caretaker in their property to stage the home! Our Hometenders pay for utilities, pool, landscaping and a reduced fee to Hometenders of America to live in these gorgeous homes. Here are Five Reasons not to leave a house vacant when showing your home: People don't buy houses, they buy Homes It is difficult to understand how large a room is when there's no frame of reference. People can't visualize how furniture will fit in an empty space,a and if they're unsure, they don't buy! When a room is empty, prospective buyers focus on negative details instead of falling in love with the overall space.Rather than looking at the flow of one room to another, prospective buyers get bogged down in questions like: Is the drywall smooth? Will those bumps in the carpet come out? Why doesn't the closet have hanging bars or why isn't it updated to fit the price of the home. Why is the light switch in the middle of the wall? When a house or even a few rooms are empty, prospective buyers may become distracted from the house itself and shift their focus to the homeowners. Instead of focusing on whether this is the home for them, they may be busy wondering, is this couple getting a divorce? Has the family left town? Are they selling because they have money problems?How desperate are they to sell. How low will they go? This train of thought can then prompt buyers to begin thinking, “maybe I can put in a low ball offer since the seller might be desperate. Definitely not the picture you are trying to paint! Home staging is about illusions. It's beyond decorating and cleaning. It's about perfecting the art of creating moods. This is why Hometenders of America has become so successful. If you have a vacant home and want to get the most money in the quickest turn around time, call Hometenders and we can help you. Stage First! Remember the first days on the market are the best days and you don't want to wait until your home has gotten "stale" on the market before you call us.

Thinking of putting your home on the market? Stage First. Whether furnished or vacant we can help. Here are some helpful suggestions from our Interior Designers: You Will Make More Money According to the *National Association of Realtors (NAR), the average staging investment is between 1 and 3 percent of the home's asking price, which generates a return of 8 to 10 percent! Your House Will Sell Faster which = More Money and Less Headache and Stress A National Association of Realtors survey found that the longer a home stays on the market, the further below list price it drops. Homes that sold in the first 4 weeks averaged 1% more than the list price; 4 to 12 weeks averaged 5% less; 13 to 24 weeks averaged 6.4% less; than list price; and 24 weeks averaged more than 10% less than list price. The Cost of Staging Doesn’t Cost A Dime In a 2007 Home Gain Survey of over 2000 Realtors, it was discovered that home staging typically provides a 343% return on investment! Your online photos will stand-out amongst the competition According to a NAR profile of buyers, over 85% of buyers are searching for homes online first before deciding to visit. Give buyers a reason to drive to your home by having multiple photos of beautifully staged rooms that will stand out among the competition! Only 10% of Homebuyers Can Visualize the Potential of a Home That’s why staging a home is critical! You don’t want the advantages of your home overlooked and left up to the buyer’s imagination. The Longer Your Home is on the Market, the Lower the Price Will Be, so STAGE FIRST! According to a National Association of Realtors survey, homes that sold after 4 weeks on the market sold for 6% less then ones within the first 4 weeks! Don’t be in a position where you have to lower your price…have your house staged! Leaving Your House in “AS IS” Condition Will Only Help Sell the Competition Right now the number of homes for sale on the market is at a record high. Competition is stiff and buyers have very high expectations, as well as many choices. Successful agents know that the key to competing is professional staging because it creates compelling online presentations, drives buyer traffic to the home, and turns prospects into buyers. You Can Relax You will have the satisfaction of knowing you have done absolutely everything possible to affect a quick sale of your most valuable commodity and for top dollar! Vacant properties add even more of a headache to the process of selling. Vandalism, squatters, and high vacant home insurance are just a few of the things that befall a vacant property.
