                               Do people say you have a flair for design? 
                       
                       Always wanted to get paid to do something you love? 

      If you answered yes to all these questions, then this 5-day home staging design course is for you!

                                                      
     Did you know that home stagers average $75-$150 per hour and can save home owners tens of thousands in potential price reductions? There is high demand in the real estate industry for this invaluable service and you could be one of the many people getting paid to help home sellers secure as much profit for their home as possible. 

     As a Certified Home Stager (AHSC), you will utilize your new talents to redesign interiors so they sell faster and for more money. Statistically, staged homes procure offers up to 17% higher and sell 2-3 times faster than homes that have not been staged. 
     
     In this fast paced course, you will learn how to start, market and grow your home staging business. Not already a designer? No problem - many in depth exercises and demonstrations in this course will teach you how to design interiors like a professional!

     The Academy of Home Staging was developed to provide the most comprehensive start-up staging program available. Many programs offer start-up training and some practical staging exercises. At The Academy, we also develop your business plan with you and teach you interior design basics so you have the confidence to start staging immediately!
