Recently, one of my real estate connections, Greg, reached out to me for help selling a condo. It was a spacious and clean property, but he wanted to sell it at a much higher price than what a condo usually goes for in the area. I believed he could pull this off because he is an excellent agent, he even sold a condo to me for a great price! But, it wasn’t going to be easy, because he was trying to sell a 1 bedroom 1 bathroom condo in Center City, Philadelphia for around 400k, which is a price that is unheard of for this kind of property! Regardless, we took professional pictures of his condo and added in virtual staging. A few weeks later, he pulled off the impossible. The condo was sold for $400,000! How was Greg able to pull this off? Yes, it’s true that he’s an excellent salesman, but normally listing a condo for this price wouldn’t even give you a call, let alone a tour of the property and negotiations. So how? The secret is the work we did for him, specifically the professional virtual staging.
What is Virtual Staging?
Virtual staging is the process of adding staging elements like furniture and decorations into a picture using CGI. The goal is to create a visually pleasing and engaging representation of an otherwise completely empty room. This will help potential home buyers envision what the property could look like when completely furnished and allows them to imagine themselves living there. Virtual Staging is very popular in real estate for this reason, and when done professionally, it’s almost impossible to tell that the furniture is CGI! Let’s take a look at the images we provided for Greg that allowed him to sell his property for a premium price! How to Enhance Your Listing Photography How to Enhance Your Listing Photography Watch how a vacant and empty living room turns into a place that looks luxurious and inviting! With modern furniture and a stylish design, this is what the condo could look like in real life! When a potential buyer sees this, they are able to picture themselves living in a beautiful condo like this. Without the furniture, it looks like a cold empty room, and the buyer will not be able to imagine how good the room could look as easily. Now, it makes sense how Greg was able to get buyers in the door, and sell his property at such a high price!
