The way homes are sold today doesn't meet the need for real estate agents helping monetize the biggest investment in a homeowner's lifetime: the home they're now selling. At Staging &Design Network, we create e-commerce technologies that enable real estate professionals to maximize the market value of their listings via home staging.
Home staging is a proven way real estate pros can boost the market value of a listed home by as much as 20% over an unstaged home. But, home staging is a cottage industry ripe for technology innovation.
