What happens when buyers fall in love with a listing online, only to arrive and discover an empty house that looks nothing like the photos?
In this episode of Market Ready, Lance Pendleton sits down with Damon Vaz, co-owner of Voz Interiors and a former police sergeant turned professional home stager, to discuss one of the biggest mistakes sellers and agents make: relying on virtual staging instead of creating a truly market-ready home.
Damon explains why he calls virtual staging without physical staging the "bait and switch," how staging creates an emotional connection that leads to faster sales, and why investing in preparation often saves sellers far more than their first price reduction ever would. You'll also hear practical advice on the highest-impact improvements, how staging influences buyer psychology, and why today's buyers expect homes to feel move-in ready from the moment they walk through the front door.
If you're preparing to sell your home or you're a real estate professional looking to improve your listings, this conversation is packed with actionable insights that can help you sell faster—and for more money..
