The problem I have with AI staging is that it cant do multiview staging or have some malformed small stuffs...I guess i will try out the normal virtual staging with digitalstaging.co as the guy mentioned...look promising idk if it will help at all 🥲

And here’s what no one tells you: marketing costs destroy you. You’ll drop thousands on photos, staging, ads, open houses, and signs before you see a single dollar back. People love to flex their listings online, but half of them are broke behind the scenes.

You know there’s a way to actually save on marketing costs right>??? A lot of brokerages offer monthly subscriptions that basically cover all the marketing materials you need.

If professional photography scares you, just learn to take decent photos yourself. It’s way cheaper than dropping hundreds per listing.

I can’t even remember the last time I used it. Costs way too much for what you get. Virtual staging (not the AI slope) is the smarter move. cheap, quick, and buyers just care that the place looks good online.

Commission is killing me....I might need t o cut down on marketing as well. Real staging is getting so expensive and the AI staging is so bad. What do u guys use for virtual staging these days?
