Introducing: PAY AT CLOSING

By Andrea Diaz, Owner/Founder of Design Decor & Beyond

A Game-Changer for Real Estate Agents
In today's competitive real estate market, presentation is paramount. Home staging has proven to enhance property appeal, often leading to quicker sales and higher offers. However, the upfront costs associated with staging can be a hurdle for many sellers. Enter the "Pay at Closing" model—a solution that benefits sellers and agents.

What Is "Pay at Closing" in Home Staging?
"Pay at Closing" allows sellers to defer payment for staging services until the property is sold. This approach eliminates the need for immediate out-of-pocket expenses, making professional staging accessible to a broader range of clients.


Benefits for Real Estate Agents
  1. Professionally staged homes often photograph better and attract more interest, leading to increased showings and offers. 
  2. Staged homes tend to sell more quickly, reducing time on the market. 
  3. Offering a "Pay at Closing" option demonstrates a commitment to client needs, potentially leading to more referrals.

How it Works
  • During the listing process, the agent discusses staging options with the seller, introducing the "Pay at Closing" model.
  • A professional stager is engaged to prepare the home, enhancing its market appeal.
  • The seller agrees to pay for the staging services from the proceeds at closing, formalized through a contractual agreement.
  • Upon the sale of the property, the staging fees are deducted from the seller's proceeds during the closing process.
