Selling your Sydney home is a big move, and making the right first impression is crucial. In 2025, professional staging is proven to increase sale prices by 5-15% and reduce time on market by up to 30%—transforming a lived-in space into a buyer’s dream is both a science and an art. As a real estate specialist with deep technical knowledge, here’s exactly what you need to do to get your property ready, with trusted data and industry insights throughout.
NSW case studies show that homes not professionally staged can linger on the market for months, selling for tens of thousands less than potential top value. According to CMLaw Sydney, staged homes typically sell for 5-10% more and receive 20% more buyer inquiries, with properties spending up to 30% less time listed. The Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA) reinforces this with stats that staged homes spend 73% less time on market and often sell for 6-20% more.
Staged homes in Sydney typically sell for 7.5-15% more with an average styling investment between $2,000 and $8,000, producing roughly a 10% return on investment (WhichRealEstateAgent). Further, staged listings get up to 20% more inquiries, accelerating sales and often creating multiple offer situations on popular properties (SellInStyle).
Government incentives like stamp duty concessions for downsizers and first-home buyers are fueling Sydney’s property demand, making presentations that much more vital as buyers have choices. Flexible homes with dual living options are in high demand, boosting the need for functional staging (ABProperties).
