What does all that mean to you? Great staging at a fraction of traditional staging costs paid at closing, a reduction in your overall carrying costs, care of your home from the inside and out, statistically faster sales and significantly higher offers than a similar vacant home that is for sale.

HOME STAGING
Experienced Real Estate Agents know that a home that is beautifully staged tends to sell faster than a house that is not. Also, vacant houses are often perceived to have a lower value than homes that are staged and can often receive "low-ball" offers from buyers who perceive that the owner is desperate to sell.
Showhomes provides customized staging solutions tailored to each home. Staging options include design and decorating by staging professionals, whole house staging or partial home stagings as well.
Showhomes is America's Leader in Home Staging with a proven method to stage and market your home for sale. Staging is the most effective way to sell properties in today's market.
"Home staging is no longer optional in this real estate market, but a MUST. It's what will make the difference in whether your home sells or not." - Real Estate Mogul Barbara Corcoran In today's real estate market, buyers have lots of choices when it comes to buying a home. Successful real estate agents know that beautifully designed and staged homes have more buyer appeal than vacant or non-staged homes. Statistics have shown that staged homes sell faster, bring higher offers and create happier sellers. Staging is the best marketing strategy available with proven results. -

HOME UPDATING
No one wants to spend money on the home they are getting ready to sell. However, most buyers are looking for a move-in-ready house with fresh paint and flooring. Very few buyers want more work and expense to update the home they will purchase. To appeal to the broadest base of buyers and to increase the value of your home, a few changes can provide the greatest return on investment when selling your home. Beyond basic de-cluttering and cleaning, Showhomes can assist with making these important changes for you.

The service was professional, thoughtful and well-executed. We appreciated the extra effort that Cindi and her staff put into helping prepare our home for sale. The furniture looks great and is perfect for showing the property. We'd happily use Showhomes again!
Ellen Wilkes (Asheville NC)
It was quick and easy! The decor was jut right!
Laura Marlow (Hanahan SC)
Professional, prompt replies, stayed on schedule for deliveries, etc.
Caroline Lewis (Alpine Enterprises, LLC) (Hendersonville NC)
They have done 2 houses for us and we are thrilled! So easy to work with! Our last house was under contract in 2 days. What a joy it is to have a stager that takes care of ALL of the details.
Julian Montaro (Arden NC)
I like Cindy. She is nice, knowledgeable, and works fast. Very good communication! House looks great and hoping to sell quick.
Bret Archbold (Hendersonville NC)
Cindi and her team have such an elegant touch, made our home so inviting. Under contract in 2 days, we'll never sell another home without her services.
Verneda Harris-Irving (Weaverville NC)
Cindi Springer is very professional and easy to work with.
Patricia Roberts (Asheville NC)
Staging is a wonderful way to display a home that is only partially furnished after moving the best "stuff" out. In addition to placing up to date furnishings in rooms, the group also moved existing items around for a better look. Replacement lighting, repainting, and overall 'beautification' will help with the sale. The house never looked better.
Troy Flack (TN)
Always great to work with this company! They are professional and make our homes look fantastic. Our last home they staged contracted almost immediately. We will certainly use them again.
Ken Drisdell (Arden NC)
Cindi Stringer was superb. She was very friendly, professional and accommodating. The price was very competitive. She listened to what we needed and explained what she could do for us. We were getting our house ready to market and needed to paint the interior and make the place look fresh and move-in ready. Cindi gave great recommendations for paint color and requested we update a couple ceiling fans to modernize the look. I have worked professionally with Interior Designers in the San Francisco Bay area for 18 years, and consider her work most excellent. She used higher-end furnishings in a very tasteful and judicious manner. The results were awesome! Thank you Cindi!!
Fitz Sthreshley (TN)
What's not to like!!! Outstanding attention to details and outstanding service!!!
Jeffrey Therrien (Hendersonville NC)

Excellent concept. Fit our needs perfectly since we were moving to a new city. Cindi Stringer delivered on all of her promises.

It has been a pleasure working with Cindi Stringer. The homes she has staged were perfect, and the homes sold. I am a true believer in staging homes to get the most money for your house. Most people cannot visualize what a home will look like with furniture, art work and accessories. They buy what they see, and Cindi made that happen. Julie Mallett/George Real Estate Group
Terri Bowman (Asheville NC)
Furniture and decorative accessories were nice quality and complemented our existing decor. Cindy was a consummate professional who made a plan for each room, staged the home in a few hours and made it very appealing. Our home sold quickly afterwards. It was a worthwhile investment!

Ellizabeth Boone (Columbus NC)
I found Showhomes to be easy to work with and exceptional in targeting problem areas that needed to be changed. They exceeded my expectations, were careful and professional in their approach. The house was more inviting and welcoming when they finished. They provided touches I never expected and made suggestions for ways I could add to what they had done. I even purchased a desk from them because it enhanced the room I use as an office so well and I liked it so much. I believe my house will sell for more money and faster because of the fine work done by Showhomes! E. Boone, Columbus, NC
Bob Sabin (Marietta GA)
They had a great sense of the area and furnished it quickly and well.

Being a Showhomes Home Manager has given me the opportunity to live in amazing homes for what it would cost me to live in a small condo. I’ve also enjoyed getting to try different areas of our area to see where I eventually want to settle.
Ginger Landers (NC)
Being a home manger is a great opportunity to live in a beautiful home in Asheville. Cindi and the other ladies at WNC Showhomes are very pleasant and professional.

I highly recommend WNC Showhomes for homeowners and for people looking to rent a luxurious house!

Very excited about the way Showhomes worked with us. While we originally made a mistake with our choice of Realtor, which meant our home did not sell for quite some time, Showhomes stood by us, helped us with costs, and made sure the house was always in good shape to sell. All we can add is thanks.
James West (Hendersonville NC)
You were a great help in selling our home. Very professional! Thanks !!!!

James West (Hendersonville NC)
We appreciate all your help!
Kayla Ovenall (NC)
Obviously I loved the staging. But what really has me sold is the communication. Showhomes communicated well with both the sellers and me and in many ways made my job easier as a listing agent. They organized and fully executed an agent open house that was fabulous. Very impressed with these guys.
Scott Browne (NC)
Great service. Cool staging design. Good company.
Matt Holloway (Mills River NC)
Our experience with Showhomes was great. I have to admit we were a little apprehensive in the beginning but with multiple phone conversations with Cindy and Sharon are minds were at ease (sort of). Once the day came and the stage was set were we very impressed with the outcome. Now our concerns were totally at eased. Great experience, enjoyed everyone, thank you for your hard work . Matt and Sue
Betty Rosenbusch (Hendersonville NC)
Having met Cindi and Sharon when we enlisted Showhomes' services to stage a home our real estate team had listed for almost a year (which, after staging, sold within the first week!), we had seen firsthand just how effective teaming with Showhomes could be. Therefore, when it came to selling our own home, there was never a second thought. Cindi and Sharon's collaborative approach coupled with their staging expertise provided the perfect recipe for success. Through the entire process, there was great communication, a group of skilled and able craftspeople for any work that needed to be done including an amazing photographer, as well as timely scheduling and execution. As we all know, selling our own home can be one of the most emotional and stressful experiences we ever go through. Working with Sharon and Cindi truly helped ease us through the process. We were able to sell our home within the first day it was listed! Needless to say, we highly recommend Showhomes to anyone truly motivated to sell their home.

Houses show so much better and floor plans make sense. My most recent client used a home manager. The yard always looked well maintained, the house was always spotless, the house smelled fresh and all showing requests accepted.
Sally Sutton-Hilton (Fletcher NC)
I like that you come to my home for a consultation. I like your selection of furniture and the way you made the home look beautiful. Very professional work and I am very pleased.

Marie Reed (NC)
Friendly staff and the homes look great when you are done
Casey & Bob Braddock (Chattanooga NC)
I thought the condo looked great when the staging was complete. We were able to get it staged quickly. We had a narrow window to work in to remove the furniture when it was under contract and that worked out well.
Ilona Kenrick (NC)
The service is always over the top and my homes sell quickly and for more money. I have used this company for condos under $100K and homes in the 1/2 million and more. They treat everything property like a castle. They are very simply the best !!
Alpha Investments LLC (Flat Rock NC)
Showhomes did an amazing job staging my listing. It without a doubt caused the property to sell faster and for more money.
Jamie Roper (Asheville NC)
First off, the representatives Sharon and Cindi, were wonderful. They presented me a quote immediately and walked me through the procedure. My home looks fabulous and it is a testament to their taste, qualify of furnishings and added touches. They are meticulous and I would definitely recommend their service to anyone interested in selling their house..
Francois Marcel Lauture (Hendersonville NC)
You were very patient with all our questions when staging was needed to sell my father's home. It was an expense we hadn't counted on but in the end worth every penny. You followed through with temporary staging when a manager couldn't be found. You worked closely with the realtor to market the home. Your firm is friendly and professional.
Susan Duncan (Asheville NC)
Sharon and Cynthia delivered on everything they said they would do! My home sold within 48 hours of it being staged!
Karen Woodard (NC)
Staging makes such a difference to how a buyer views a house. Staged homes tend to look more like new or model homes and take the guess work out of how to arrange a room. Just as importantly, Sharon and Cindi are able to broach subjects that listing agents may have found difficult to discuss with home owners.
Harry Adams (Wolf Laurel-Mars Hill NC)
Personalized, individualized. Always available when I had questions. Staging was carried out in a very tasteful manner. Sharon and Cindi were delightful to work with and I would recommend Showhomes Western North Caroina to anyone who is selling their residence and needs excellent and professional staging.
Art Redden (TN)
Showhomes Home Staging did a fantastic job staging a home that I had recently listed and I believe that the staging played a big role in the sale of the home. I plan on using their services in the future to help drive sales and would recommend their services to home owners and realtors.

Russ and Molly Paine (Fairview NC)
Cindi and Sharon, Molly and I wanted to share with you a quick note describing our experience with Showhomes. First we wanted you to know how much we appreciated the incredible job you did in staging our home. Having a high end, quality home for sale, without any furnishing, or someone we trusted to live there in our absence was of great concern to us. Your program put us at ease. Our home was decorated quickly and expertly. It was clear that you took great pride in the selection of what furniture, paintings, lamps etc. you brought into the house. The staging transformation was unbelievable. Our home went from being a lovely, yet empty home, to being a home someone could see themselves wanting to live in. The rooms were so beautiful and you created a space where prospective buyers wanted to stay and enjoy the home. Equally as valuable to us was our decision to put a Home Manager into our house. We were now living in Connecticut, and didn’t have anyone to watch our home in the interim. The Home Manager program was the solution. They were exceptionally professional and were obviously held to high standards. I stopped in twice and found the house and grounds in impeccable shape. This was exactly what we were expecting and need to have in order for our home to sell. I know that selecting Showhomes helped to bring out our homes true value to buyers in our area. Thank you for your excellent work and commitment. You were both a pleasure to work with and exceed our expectations on every level. Sincerely, Russ and Molly Paine

Showhomes is a very well run operation that I am proud to participate in and thrilled that I was ask to join the organization. Pamela Harris
Allan and Fran Fedor (Asheville NC)
Having the house manager gave us peace of mind, knowing we didn't have to keep checking on the house--or cleaning it! The whole process from staging the house and finding the house manager to destaging and having the house ready to close was all handled very professionally.

We loved that we can work in combination with your company to get houses staged and managed in order to sell homes quickly! Thanks for all your help! We are a great combination!

The services are excellent! I have used Showhomes on several occassions and on each situation, the people of Showhomes conducted themselves extremely professional and accomodating to both the seller and myself. All the homes that have been staged have sold and also in a timely manner. I have used the services of a fully staged home and restaging using the seller's furniture and both were very successful. I would highly recommend them to any seller that wishes to sell their home quickly and for the highest price.

The Home Manager program, although trying at times, is very beneficial when you are new to an area - thank you Cindi and Showhomes for making such a difference in our move to Asheville.

OMG all I can say is I was blown away by how amazing you staged my house. Anybody else who has liked this page do not think twice about calling Cindi or Sharon. Their work had me speechless which is hard for anybody to do to me. <3
Beverly-Hanks & Associates (Weaverville NC)
Wow! The home shows beautifully on line! Thanks to you all for making this home sparkle and look better than new!
Sales Executive, Walnut Cove Realty (Arden NC)
We elected to wait until our new home was finished before aggressively marketing our existing home. Being in the real estate business ourselves, we had become familiar with ShowHomes through another home in our community who had retained them. Knowing that a furnished, occupied home would show better to prospective buyers, we decided to retain ShowHomes as our home manager in our home until it sold. Within 60 days of occupancy, we were able to ratify a sales contract on our home. From the first contact, Sharon and Cindi conducted every aspect of our relationship professionally and in a timely manner from move in to move out. The home was always show ready within 30 minutes of being notified creating a "no hassle" environment for agents to bring their clients. We were satisfied enough with our experience to immediately use ShowHomes again for an investment property we subsequently decided to put on the market with the full confidence our experience would be the same.

You guys are the best!!!!...why was I a hold out for your awesome services? I cannot say enough good things about the professionalism and success I have had with this company.
Realtor, DixonPacifica Real Estate (Asheville NC)
I have to admit you created a wow moment for me with staging because I remember when it was vacant. Great job, the furniture and accessories fit the house, and the lack of personal photographs, diplomas, etc. made for a nice showing. We agents try to get our clients to tone down the personal things, and you have helped me see how important that is.
Wowed in Asheville (Asheville NC)
"Showhomes was amazing! We were considering selling our home and were fortunate to have someone contact us who was interested in buying in our neighborhood. We contacted Showhomes to stage our house - with our existing furnishings - prior to the potential buyers previewing it. Sharon and Cindi de-cluttered our house of things that we would not have noticed since we were used to it looking a certain way. In addition, they rearranged existing items that we owned and added a few key items. When the potential buyers came to see our house, they made an offer and we came to an agreement for them to purchase it within 2 days. We believe that the WOW factor that Showhomes created helped us to sell our house so quickly. We would highly recommend Showhomes to others wanting to sell their house quickly."

Tina Excellent (Arden NC)
I am a Showhomes Home Manager and feel that I get a tremendous amount of support from Showhomes in Western NC. Wonderful people and a beautiful home.
Christie Melear, Broker, Beverly-Hanks & Associates (Asheville NC)
Hello Cindi & Sharon, We closed on the sale of 800 Cane Creek Road this week much to the owners delight! And mine too...! I must admit the seller was a little skeptical at first, but when she saw the difference that your presence & staging made in her vacant property, she became a believer. The property showed beautifully! And even more importantly, - went under contract within a few months of enlisting your services! (This was not a surprise to me, - that's why I recommended you & your services in the first place...) ; ) Your home managers were also a pleasure to work with! Please let them know we enjoyed working with them & wish them the best in their new location. They kept the home & the property in "show condition", - not always an easy task considering the acreage. They added beauty to an already beautiful property, with their colorful flowers and their generous spirit. This is the 2nd time that we have moved successfully together to a closing. Your going the "extra mile" really makes a difference, and I just want you know how much you and your work are appreciated. Thanks again & I'm looking forward to working with you again sometime soon! Sincerely, Christie Melear PS We also had a lot of great comments on your presentation & wonderful lunch at the Broker Open House! : )
El-Taarn, Tryon, NC (Tryon NC)
I am the co-owner of a very unique estate home, El Taarn in Tryon NC, that is now on the market. Due to estate settlement issues, most of the home's furnishings and artwork had to be sold. Believing that homes that are well decorated or staged generally sell faster and for more than ones that are empty, I contacted Cindi Stringer and Sharon Duncan of Showhomes of Western North Carolina (WNC). They did a fabulous job of staging our one-of-a-kind property. Unlike many stagers, they did not proffer "cookie cutter" proposals and standard style furnishings and accessories for staging the home. They recognized the uniqueness of our place and worked with the realtors, their art and architectural consultants, and us to develop an individualized solution to showcasing our estate. They searched many venues to find items that would be appropriate and believable in the home, and that were congruent with the architecture and history of the home. They created a total home solution by addressing garden space, entry and doorways, and interior spaces. They even negotiated a reciprocal deal with a talented artist to provide 14 works to be placed throughout the home, which would help the look not only for the video/photos, but for walk through clients as well. Realizing that we had already invested a substantial sum to prepare the home, they worked hard to have a budget friendly solution. They were very flexible in the business contract arrangement that we developed to satisfy our needs and keep a potentially long term carrying cost reduced to an acceptable amount. As needed they provided referrals to competent craftsmen to assist in the staging. These two ladies were an absolute joy to work with. They are warm, gracious, communicative, and responsive. Knowing that the film crew and photographers would be arriving soon to prepare market materials, they returned to the house the day before to make sure that everything was "just so." They even took advantage of the beautiful estate gardens and cut flowers and greenery and prepared numerous small arrangements placed throughout the many rooms. A fantastic touch that enhanced the photography work, and saved us money by limiting the amount of floral arrangements ordered to just a couple of large scale ones. If you want competent, personalized, and reasonably priced assistance in selling your home, I would highly recommend Cindi and Sharon of Showhomes WNC to anyone. George Tabb, Owner El-Taarn

I had a listing sitting on the market for 6 months. Show homes staged it with a home manager and we had 3 offers in 3 weeks... the house was sold a month later. I will never be thankful enough! !! I had a month to sell the house or I would have lost the listing. It was unbelievable the difference in feedback I got from before and after staging.

Your furniture was just enough and just right to entice someone to ... stay awhile! And having such great property managers on site relieved us mightily. Thank you!
Carolina Mountain Sales (Asheville NC)
Sharon and Cindi – Thank you so much for hosting an incredible open house today. Your company never ceases to amaze me with your professionalism and follow through. As a listing broker, you make my job so easy and for the seller, you get results that more than pay for your fees…a win win for all! I will always try to engage you as the stagers for my vacant listings! The food was fabulous!! ;-)

Working with Showhomes to assist in marketing our properties has been a very rewarding experience. The service and communication is accommodating, efficient and friendly. Adding their service to our properties created an atmosphere that caught people’s eyes and gave them a sense of the property’s potential. In my experience of working with real estate often built to a certain taste, with an uncommon floor plan, or that have not been well-kept due to the financial hardships, properties sometimes need a facelift. Using Showhomes’ service can give an interested buyer a vision for the property. Due to the detail and attention brought in by Showhomes, we have just sold a property with a very strange layout. We are currently marketing a property with them that has been on the market for 2+ years, vacant. The interest and positive feedback from just the few showings we’ve had has already yielded contract discussions in days. We plan on continuing to use Showhomes’ services with our future properties and we highly recommend their service.
Lawrence & Sheri LeDuc (Weaverville NC)
Our time with Showhomes has been a God send. When our daughter received a generous scholarship at the University in Asheville, we were not prepared to make such a change of venue from Florida to North Carolina. Without knowing the area or knowing where not to live was a real concern for me and my wife. Showhomes really came through on helping us find the right house for the needs of our family. As a result, we have decided to make Asheville our permanent home. Thank you Cindi and Sharon at Showhomes for all your love and support and making us feel like family.

You work hard to affect the bottom line of my seller. Third, your overall program of Staging, Home Managers, Open Houses, Photo Shooting and countless other activities makes your service a complete package for both us Realtors and our Sellers. Thank you for providing a dynamite service to us Realtors, one in which, we actually can see the difference. Warmly……Kathleen Blanchette, KB Properties
Happy Homeowner (Asheville NC)
Dear Sharon and Cindi, Just wanted to thank you for all your work on the sale of our home. Our house had been on the market off and on for five years. After your staging of our empty house, we were pleased with the comments by different Realtors on how much better the house looked. It had a wonderful warm appearance and was more appealing to their clients. After staging we had an offer in just three months and was sold the next month. We really appreciate everything you did to help us sell. It was a joy to work with you both and we wish you Good Luck in the future. Thanks again, Dick and Dianne Harper, Homeowners
Owner Occupied Listing (Arden NC)
Sharon and Cindi did an amazing work transforming our busy and cluttered home into a showplace. They were able to use our existing furnishings in new ways to enhance the features of our home, requiring only a small budget to add the finishing touches. Showhomes presented our home to appeal to more potential buyers while remaining very liveable for our large family. Thanks so much for working with me on the presentation of our home.

Hi Cindi, Here's my testimonial you can put on your website: "I highly recommend Showhomes. Staging works and their unique system lets the homeowner postpone the fee until the home sells. This approach takes away the dread of paying four hundred dollars a month or more to rent furniture for an unknown period of time. And the furniture you rent might not be right for your house. Showhomes correctly matches up the furniture your house needs to turn it from a dead weight to having a SOLD sign. You can now have a partner that is motivated to get the house sold as fast as you are and that creates a win-win process."
Valerie & John Thomas (Asheville NC)
Showhomes was great to work with. Cindi Stringer took care of everything -- including working out the details with the condo association -- which was wonderful since we live out of state. Everything was handled very professionally. Feedback from the showings was that the unit showed like a model home. We had an offer about a month after the home manager moved in and for a price very close to our asking price. We couldn’t be happier! ~ Valerie & John Thomas
Ken Costanzo, President, Executive Solutions (Asheville NC)
I was faced with multiple concerns in selling a million dollar+ vacant home on one of the most attractive lots, in one of the most beautiful and well-known master planned communities in North Carolina. This was the good news. The bad news was I could not get anyone interested in a home that was without furniture. After much frustration, I took a chance with Cindi Stringer of Showhomes of Western NC. Cindi completely furnished and staged the home from top to bottom with quality furniture and accessories. The home became warm and inviting and most importantly showed very well. The home sold as a direct result of my decision to hire Cindi and Showhomes. I am certain that had I not worked with Cindi and Showhomes that my home would still be sitting on the market just inviting another low ball offer from someone seeking the deal of a lifetime. Making a decision on staging your home is one thing but hiring the right company to support your efforts is quite another! I can wholeheartedly recommend Cindi and Showhomes and would be pleased to answer any questions you may have on their services.
Pat Allen Realty (Highlands NC)
I highly commend Cindi Stringer and Showhomes of Western NC for doing a wonderful job and selling one of my properties. it had been for sale for several years and Cindi found just the right people with just the right furnishings. With her help the house was under contract within 3 months. i highly recommend Cindi Stringer and Showhomes to all Brokers who need help in selling their properties.
Suzann Mosley (Franklin NC)
My experience with Cindi Stringer and Showhomes of Western NC has been excellent. Cindi was very professional and took care of everything so I didn't have to do anything at all. The property managers were wonderful as well. I wish I had known about this program years ago because my home was on the market for almost 5 years and sold within 2 months of being staged.
Kyle Olinger, Walnut Cove Realty (Asheville NC)
All the guys here are really enjoying having Showhomes in Ken's home. All the recent showings have been completely seamless and the home is showing very well. So keep doing what you're doing. It's working.

GET STARTEDFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- What is home staging?When a home is "staged", it's furnished and decorated in a way that's carefully designed to maximize the home's appeal to prospective buyers.
- What benefits does home staging offer to a Homeowner?A properly staged home has just the right quality and quantity of furnishings for a buyer to understand how rooms function and how spaces flow. Staging creates warmth, life, and positive emotion. Good staging avoids clutter or overly personalized decor that might be a turn-off to some. It maximizes the home's strengths while minimizing any shortcomings. Staging engages prospective buyers, increases their interest and perception of value. A prospective buyer becomes more likely to buy!
- Do you provide staging services for owner-occupied homes?Yes, we are a full service staging organization and can provide help for homes that are occupied either for sale or for those who just want to update the look of their property.
- What is a Home Manager?A Home Manager is an individual or family who assists Showhomes by living in a Showhome and caring for it while it's on the market. Showhomes painstakingly selects and trains each Home Manager in accordance with the system we've developed through three decades of experience.
- Why would I use a Home Manager to help sell my home?A Home Manager benefits the Homeowner by caring for the home and reducing the Homeowner's carrying costs. Some examples of carrying costs that a Home Manager would cover would be utilities, gas, water, and the ability to take advantage of the savings of our national insurance program. The Home Manager helps in the sales effort by readying the house for showings and through the added life and emotional appeal their belongings contribute. Homes staged with live-in Home Managers typically out-perform vacant homes by large margins.
- Is a Home Manager present during showings?No, Home Managers are not present during showings. Prospective buyers won't know that your home is even staged; it will simply look and feel like a homeowner lives in and loves the home. Everything is in its place and your home shows as well or better than it would if you still lived there.
- How is Showhomes different from others who offer staging services?Life sells homes. Buying a home is an emotional decision for most people and Showhomes is unique in the way it helps to sell homes. Using a live in Home Manager assures you that the entire home is staged to perfection and that it is always tuned up and in show-to-sell condition. Because of this, your home is far less vulnerable to low-ball offers than it would be if it were simply staged with furniture.
- Does Showhomes act as a Realtor?No. Showhomes provides staging services that make your home far more attractive to prospective buyers. Almost all Showhomes are listed by full-service Realtors. Showhomes does not represent buyers or sellers in the real estate transaction; that is the service your Realtor is trained and licensed to provide.
- Does Showhomes offer staging services without Home Managers?Yes. If you are interested in staging services without a Home Manager contact your local office. Pricing varies by location.
- Is smoking allowed in a Showhome?No. Our promise to homeowners is a smoke free home that appeals to the largest percentage of prospective buyers.
- What happens when a Showhome sells?As soon as you accept an offer, we begin the process of relocating our Home Manager. Unlike a tenant, our Home Managers are under contract to move on short notice and once we succeed in selling your home, we are often ready to begin staging another home. We return your home to you in as good or even better condition than when we received it and the new buyers get a fresh, clean home to move into.
- What are the benefits of being a Home Manager?Flexibility, low housing costs, short or long-term housing solution, no long term committment.
- Who provides the furnishings for a Showhome?A critical requirement of Home Managers is that they have an inventory of fine furniture and accessories that meets our quality standards that they move from house to house. Showhomes supplements furniture as needed for each home.
- How can I find out about becoming a Home Manager?Visit the Home Manager section of our website or click on "Locations" to talk to your local representative.
- How can I learn more about your services to Homeowners?Click on the locations page to contact your local representative for a free consultation.
- How do Showhomes services benefit a Realtor?Showhomes helps homeowners and their Realtors sell vacant homes faster and for higher prices. In today's market, staging a home with a live-in Home Manager can steeply reduce the amount of time the home sits on the market and bring in offers far above what a homeowner would get if the home remained vacant. For a Realtor, this means less hassle, faster sale, higher commission and a happier homeowner.
- Is there any cost to the Realtor?No. Showhomes is free to Realtors.
- How can I learn more about your services to Realtors?Click on the locations page to contact your local representative for a free consultation.
- How are home showings arranged?Realtors who use us often comment that Showhomes are the easiest to show; often they are easier to show than owner-occupied homes. All Showhomes are available to show by appointment. Simply call the local Showhomes contact and make the showing appointment and we'll ensure that the home is available to show.
