Is property staging worth the cost in the market?

So I've been hanging around this sub for a bit absorbing advice before listing my apartment in Sydney Newtown, and honestly all the discussions about staging have pretty much sold me on doing it. The before/after photos people post are genuinely impressive.

But now I'm questioning a bit

For those who've used a professional staging company - how does the process actually work? Like do they rock up with a van full of furniture, arrange everything, shoot the photos, and then pack it all up the same day? Or does the furniture stay for the entire listing period? I'm trying to figure out the logistics and whether I'm essentially renting furniture that sits in my empty place for weeks.

Also what's a reasonable budget for this in Sydney? I've seen quotes ranging from a few hundred for a consultation to $3K+ for full vacant property staging.

And one more thing - has anyone gone the DIY route where you just get advice on what to buy and arrange it yourself? I don't mind putting in effort if it saves a decent amount, especially given Sydney prices are already brutal.

Would love to hear experiences from people who've sold here. First time seller so basically learning everything as I go

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
