Things to Consider in Finding the Best Virtual Staging Company

January 10, 2020 By Julia Carlisle

Are you searching for a virtual staging company?

Want to make your listings look aesthetically pleasing?

If yes, it is time to understand how you can choose the best virtual staging company.

There are quite a few options available.

However, when you judge them on a few parameters, it will become easy for you to choose the right company.

We will today share these parameters so that it becomes easy for you to choose one.

Design quality

The job of the virtual staging company is to provide you with multiple design styles for your listing.

The listing creation should be such that it is aesthetically appealing to the prospective buyer.

It is one of the most important aspects to consider while choosing the company.

You have to go through the design portfolio of the company. You have to judge the designs on:

  • Uniqueness
  • Variety
  • Aesthetics
  • Layout
  • Legibility
  • And so on

When you judge the design styles on these few parameters, it is easy to decide whether the staging company is up to the mark or not.

However, this is not the only factor you should keep in mind.

Realism

The job of such a company is to help the prospective buyer realize the potential of the property.

However, if the listing looks artificial or unreal, the prospective buyer would not be interested in it.

That is why; the company needs to create the listing in such a way that it looks real and not artificially enhanced.

The furniture or the visualizations which they use should be realistic.

Realism is an essential criterion while choosing such a company.

You have to not only ask the same from the staging company, but also look at their other listings to discover whether they are realistic or not.

Resource library

One of the prime reasons why you’re hiring a virtual staging company is to depict your property in different decors.

It is only possible when the company has a wide variety of resources which include virtual appliances, furniture as well as art pieces.

It is where the resource library of the company comes into play.

If they have a vast resource library, they can depict your property with different interiors.

It will allow the prospective buyer to become aware of the property details.

Only when the company can represent the property in different ways, there is any point in hiring a staging company.

Otherwise, you would have to go for an average staging company, which can cost you a lot.

The best way to find a home staging alternative is to research online.

The online reviews of these companies take into account not just the experience of the company but also the resource library.

That is why, when you go through the top 5 companies online, it will be easy for you to find the right one.

The resource library of the company is an essential factor, but unfortunately, there is no direct way to judge it.

It is one of the reasons you need to research for the best virtual companies online and then take your pick

Communication quality

online communication

There is no point in having the best virtual staging company by your side if the communication by the company is not up to the mark.

When you’re trying to sell your property, you need a company that is easy to contact and fast to respond.

Only, in that case, it can cater to your requirements.

You have to look at the modes of communication. Ideally, it should offer the following ways of communication:

  • Email support
  • Chat support
  • Phone support
  • Ticket support

If it offers any two of these communication mediums and is fast to respond, then only you can choose that company.

Turnaround time

In today’s fast-moving world, no one has the time to wait for 3 to 4 weeks to get the listing done.

The same is true for a prospective seller as well.

When you are comparing the different digital staging companies, it is vital to inquire from them about turnaround time.

If you have a single listing, the turnaround time of less than a fortnight is a reasonable deadline to work with.

The deadlines, however, can increase depending on the number of listings that you have.

Nevertheless, you should work with the benchmark of:

  • A fortnight for a single listing
  • Three weeks for 2 to 3 listings
  • Four weeks for 5 listings
  • And so on

You need to keep in mind that you should not just focus on this factor alone.

If the turnaround time of a particular company is only one or two days, the chances are the designs will not be up to the mark.

That is why you have to give enough time to the company to create the designs and send them back to you.

So, are you still unclear about choosing the best virtual staging company?

Worry not! With our guide above, it will be easier than ever for you to choose such a company and get aesthetically pleasing listings.

The listings can undoubtedly increase the probability of selling your property quickly and for a higher sum.

That is why; it is time that you hire such a company rather than plan the entire listing by yourself.
