Virtual staging or virtual renovation is a process of using computer software to create realistic 3D images of a home or room by adding or changing furniture, decor, and finishes digitally. It is an alternative to traditional staging or renovation, where physical furniture and home improvement materials are used to decorate a property.
Virtual staging or renovation is often used in real estate to help prospective buyers envision a property's potential, without requiring the expense and logistical challenges of physically staging or renovating a space. It can also be used by homeowners looking to update their home's decor without the expense and disruption of a physical renovation.
The process typically involves taking photos of a space and uploading them to a virtual staging software platform. The software then allows users to add or change furniture, decor, finishes, and even wall colors to create a virtual representation of the space. The final product is a series of realistic, high-quality images that can be used to market a property or visualize a renovation.
