How much does it cost to renovate and stage a bedroom for sale?

Normal 1595094345 Before And After  28

Take at look at the before and after photos of this condo bedroom--can you guess at what it cost to renovate and stage this room? It's probably less than you think... The total bedroom renovation and staging cost was under $500! The room renovation itself was less than $50! A fresh coat of paint was all this room needed. We went with a modern gray paint but kept it light.

Bedroom renovated by painting

For the staging, this is stuff I reuse all the time, so I'll break down the cost, but this cost actually gets divided more and more each and every time I use it to stage a property I'm flipping.

Here's a breakdown.....

IKEA

The Ikea furniture is easy for me to carry myself and store with minimal space used. Here there's one Lack side table ($15) and one desk with legs that are interchangeable (I don't see the exact top on Ikea currently but they have the Linnmon desk set for $25), and one Gunde Ikea chair ($8).

Amazon

The shelves are from Amazon ($29) and the curtains are from WalMart ($10 for a set of two and I used two sets, so $20). The comforter sells on Amazon for $29, and the pillow cases are from Dollar Tree ($5 total). The mirror was the most expensive item, but again, I use it all the time. It was from Home Goods and so I don't have online pricing for that, but Amazon has a similar one for $159. Oh! Plus the bed! It's an air mattress! Easy to store and only $55. I place it on foldable frames from Amazon ($90).

That makes the staging total $435 (for things I can reuse all the time). So, that's a grand total of $485. That's less than $500 to totally change the look of this room. What do you think? Worth it, right?!
