Real Estate Agents Can Increase Perceived Value - Learn How!

While doing a bit of research, I came across something that described the difference between actual value and perceived value.

The actual value of a property is based on the square footage, number of bedrooms, number of baths, size of kitchen, the location, etc. Perceived value is based on what the would-be buyers believe about the home. They want to see that it meets their needs AND makes their lifestyle better than it is now.

The best way to increase perceived value is by having a home staged. The better the homes looks, the better a potential buyer feels about the home. A 3 bedroom 2 bath home that is staged will sell faster than an identical unstaged home. Staging adds the perceived value buyers are looking for.
