What is Matterport staging?
Matterport staging turns uninviting spaces and rooms in Matterport 3D Virtual Tours into showstoppers. This new add-on service aims to transform an empty, uninviting space and unlocks your every listing's true potential through a fully immersive walkthrough experience.
Matterport Staging offers several benefits and strengths including:
Cost-Effective
Traditional staging can be expensive and time-consuming. With Matterport staging, real estate agents can save time and money by avoiding renting furniture and decor or hiring a professional staging company. Matterport staging can be completed quickly, usually within 7-10 days, whereas traditional staging takes longer.
Showcasing Potential
Matterport staging tours can be used to showcase the potential of a property, highlighting how it can be used and how different areas of the space can be utilized.
Flexibility
Matterport staging also has the advantage of showing a property in multiple styles and configurations, making it more appealing to a wider range of potential buyers. This is particularly useful for vacant properties, which can be difficult to visualize in their best light and often lack furniture and decor.
Effectiveness of Matterport staging:
Staging a home can have a significant impact on the selling price and time on the market. According to Real Estate Staging Association Publications, the National Association of Realtors and Professional Staging, 85% of staged homes sell for 5 to 23% over their listing price, and sellers' agents report a 1% to 5% increase in selling price for staged homes. Home staging can also bring in an 8-10% return on investment and help a home sell 73% faster than a non-staged home. Also, 31% of buyers reported that staging a home increased their offer on a property.
