Kim Kapellusch, Owner and Founder of The Academy of Home Staging is proud to announce the 2013 schedule of classes for the industries leading Home Staging Certification training program.
There has never been a better time to become a Certified Home Stager. Home Stagers design homes that are for sale so that they sell faster and for more money. The investment in Home Staging is typically a tax deduction as a cost of selling a home, making it an extremely attractive option for sellers looking to move the home quickly and for as much profit as possible in a down market. More and more home sellers and Realtors are embracing the success of Home Staging with 25% of homes now being staged, up from just 5% in 2007. According to a 2012 survey by Home Gain, Home Staging is in the Top 5 items a home seller should invest in in order to sell their home quickly and for the most amount of money. In the same survey Home Gain states Home Staging delivers a 196% Return on Investment to the home seller.
Nationwide, the ratio of Realtors to Home Stagers is approximately 100 to 1, leaving a large gap for those interested in a career change. With no previous experience and just one week of intensive training, participants can join this fastest growing segment of interior design.
The Academy of Home Staging is announcing twelve dates in six cities throughout 2013.
