Virginia Realtor Finds Virtual Staging Success
Virginia Real Estate Team Encounters Virtual Success!
Susan H., a Top Ranked Virginia Realtor, Long & Foster, decided to try a new virtual staging service she had come across while attending the National Association of Realtors convention last November. She sent us her before and after pictures below and talks about her virtual success.
“We thought they had a very unique virtual staging service. Their before and after picture presentation looked amazing. We definately wanted to try the service for our vacant listings.” Susan says.
She further states, “We had a property listing on Governors Pond Circle in Alexandria, Virginia that had been sitting for two months, with little buyer interest and showings. The owners were an older couple moving to a retirement home community. While the home was spacious inside with newly installed hardwood flooring and carpet, being vacant, it didn’t show well online.”
Susan immediately contacted our virtual staging company. She ordered four rooms virtually staged, hoping the staged photos would increase showing activity. She continues, “When we received our photos, they looked absolutely perfect! Everything was ideally to scale. Our clients were impressed with how you could even see realistic reflections in the mirrors. After posting the staged photos, we noticed an uptick in buyer traffic, calls and agent showings.
Once inside the home, prospective buyers and agents really liked the enlargements of the virtually staged photos we placed in the vacant rooms. This home had a unique floor plan and having the staged photos really helped buyers to visualize how they might decorate and place furniture. We got an offer within 30 days after posting the virtually staged pictures online.”
Susan has been using Virtual Staging ever since! She closes by saying “It has been a huge selling point during listing appointments. Numerous buyers comment on how much easier they envision themselves living in the home. The service is exceptional and glad we found out about it!”

CYNDI OHRT, Realtor | Keller Williams Realty – Virginia
“We received 2 offers in less than a week and a half. The property was listed with vacant photos for over 220 days on the market with no offers. Many buyers passed on the house but after posting the virtual photos, they changed their minds and we definitely saw an increase in buyer traffic!”
TRISH BRADLEY, Agent | Rutledge Properties – Massachusettes
“I only post virtually staged photos by VSP for my vacant listings and it is an excellent service instead of having blank rooms for buyers to view online.”
MARTHA MAY, Realtor | Koenig & Strey – Illinois
“Our vacant property was listed for sale with no offers for over 90 days and after virtual staging of the photos took place, we instantly saw an increase in buyer traffic and got an offer in less than 4 weeks. The buyers liked the photos which helped them with decorating ideas for the home.”
JEANNIE THOMPSON, Agent | Long & Foster – Virginia
“The unfurnished townhome we had listed had been on the market for 4 months until we decided to engage in virtual staging. I had the townhome professionally photographed and then had the photos virtually staged and they were so realistic. We had a binding contract within 2 weeks after posting the virtual photos!”
