Home Staging Offers High Income in Slow Economy
Home Staging Offers High Income in Slow Economy
Many expert home stagers earn more during a two-hour consultation than a lot of people earn for a full week’s work. Earning a six-figure income as a home stager within two years is entirely possible if you are committed to building your business and you don’t approach it as a hobby.
The knowledge and expertise of a home stager is extremely valuable to a home seller, and billable rates reflect that even in an economic recession. Take the case of Staging Diva Graduate Elizabeth Englehart of Ohio-based Moving Designs. Her first staging project was worth $8,000 to stage a vacant home that had been on the market for two years.
Home stagers can earn between $250 and $800 for an initial consultation, if they know how to properly market their services.
Many home sellers will hire a stager just for their advice and then do the rest of the work themselves. If the stager is charging properly for their consultations, it’s possible to earn at least $1,000 a week just doing these short appointments. And it’s quick money because the stager gets paid as soon as the service is delivered. Every day is “pay day” when you work this way!
After an initial consultation, a home stager can make at least $1,000 more if the client wants help implementing the stager’s recommendations. This number can climb to $5,000 or $10,000 depending on the needs for that property, as well as the stager’s level of expertise and the geographic location.
