Staging prepares your home for sale by accentuating its advantages and minimizing its flaws. We recommended several changes to this house. Here are just a few examples from 322 N Kickapoo Terrace, Peoria:

The "Eat-in Kitchen " now has a table and chairs. Buyers have a hard time envisioning the possibilities. You need to show them.

Before & After

Decorating and design are personalizing while staging is de-personalizing and preparing a house for the unknown buyer. This room was very pink. A little paint made it more appealing to a broader audience of buyers.

Before & After

Clutter eats equity and we all have it! It is hard to be objective in your own home. An unbiased independent expert opinion can ensure your house is staged and ready to market.

Before & After

These were just a few changes we recommended in the staging consultation. Staging sets the scene throughout the entire house to create immediate buyer interest, resulting in fast sales and greater profit for you. According to a recent study done by Stagedhomes.com®, staged homes sell 50% faster and for 6.9% more money. No matter what your home's age, price, or location, whether it is plain or professionally decorated, staging can work for you!

The Gillespie Group offers a FREE Home Staging® Consultation done by an Accredited Staging® Professional™ (ASP™) for all of our listings. The consultation starts with an ASP™ visiting the home to determine what changes will need to be made to Stage® the house and take pictures of each room. The ASP™ will document a detailed report of the changes for each room of the house. Then the ASP™ will meet with the homeowner to review the report and determine when the changes will be completed. The homeowner will be responsible for making the changes. (If desired, the ASP™ can make the changes for an additional fee.) After the homeowner has made the changes, the ASP™ will meet with them to complete any finishing touches, to certify the house as Staged®, and take new pictures to post on the MLS, Realtor.com, Coldwellbanker.com, Stagedhomes.com, Peoriastagedhomes.com, and many other websites.
