Home Staging Offers High Income in Slow
Economy

If you?re trying to find out everything
you can about being in the home staging
business, you?ve probably heard of a
program guaranteeing employment as a
home stager at a rate of %24-%30 per
hour. While that might sound like a lot
if you?re used to earning minimum wage,
it?s actually a very low salary for a
home stager.

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.

The Staging Diva?, discusses the high earning potential a
home stager has even in a slow economy.
