Virtual Staging FAQ

Everything you need to know about AI-powered virtual staging for real estate professionals

Getting Started

AI Virtual Staging is a cutting-edge technology that uses artificial intelligence to digitally add furniture, decor, and styling to empty or sparsely furnished rooms in photographs. Unlike traditional staging which requires physical furniture and weeks of setup, AI virtual staging creates photorealistic staged images in seconds. It helps potential buyers visualize the full potential of a space, making properties more appealing and helping them sell faster and for higher prices.

Staging Wizard is an AI-powered virtual staging platform that transforms empty rooms into beautifully furnished spaces in seconds. Simply upload a photo of an empty or sparsely furnished room, and our advanced AI analyzes the space and suggests professional furniture, lighting, and decor that buyers love. Use the Vision Builder tool to select staging approaches, design styles, target buyers, and lighting preferences, or describe exactly what you want in a custom prompt. Create magazine-quality staged photos perfect for real estate listings.

For optimal results, use clear, well-lit photos of empty or sparsely furnished rooms taken from a straight-on angle. Ensure good lighting and avoid shadows. Higher quality original photos will produce the best results, though our AI can improve lower quality images during the staging process. Our AI works best with empty rooms or rooms with minimal furniture.

You can upload images in JPG, PNG, and WEBP formats. Higher resolution images will produce better results, though our AI can improve lower quality images during the staging process. Keep file sizes under 10MB for faster processing.

Staging Wizard can stage a room in just seconds, compared to 2-3 weeks for traditional staging. Our Virtual Staging Wizard analyzes your photo and creates a professionally staged interior almost instantly, or you can describe exactly what you want and our AI will create it. This saves you time and money while delivering magazine-quality results.

Pricing & Credits

Credits are used for image generation and revisions: 1 credit = 1 generation or revision. Each time you generate a new staged image OR make a revision to an existing image, it costs 1 credit. Downloads are completely free and unlimited for all users.

Free Trial: New users receive 10 free credits to try our technology.

Pro Tip: Since revisions cost 1 credit each, try to be as detailed as possible in your initial prompt to get the best result on the first try. Use specific descriptions like "modern minimalist living room with gray sectional sofa" rather than just "stage this room."

Credit Types: Subscription credits reset monthly, while purchased add-on credits never expire and are used after subscription credits.

New users receive 10 free credits to try our technology (one-time, no renewal). Premium plans provide monthly credit allowances that reset each billing cycle - unused subscription credits do not roll over. However, credits purchased as add-ons never expire and can be used anytime. This allows us to provide consistent, high-powered access to our AI staging technology while rewarding additional purchases.

We offer flexible pricing plans to suit different needs:

  • Apprentice Plan - $9.99/month (50 credits per month)
  • Wizard Plan - $19.99/month (150 credits per month)

Staging Wizard offers a wide range of design styles including modern, traditional, contemporary, minimalist, farmhouse, industrial, and luxury. Your imagination is the limit!

The images are optimized for both web and print use, ensuring they look great across all platforms and marketing channels.

Important: You must have proper authorization to use the original property photos (as the photographer, property owner, or with explicit permission from the rights holder). Staging Wizard does not grant rights to use photos you don't already have permission to use.

You retain complete ownership of your staged images. Staging Wizard acts as a service provider that enhances your existing photos - we do not claim any ownership rights to your images, original or staged. Think of it like a photo editing service: you own the original photo, you own the enhanced result.

Technical & Support

Staging Wizard uses advanced AI technology to analyze your room photo and understand the space, lighting, and architectural features. Our Virtual Staging Wizard then suggests appropriate furniture, decor, and styling that matches your chosen design preferences and target buyer demographic, or you can describe exactly what you want and our AI will create it. The result is a photorealistic staged image that looks like professional photography.

If you're not happy with the initial staging, you can create a revision by describing the changes you want in a new prompt. Try different design styles, specify different furniture, colors, or layouts. You can also start over with a completely new approach. Each revision costs 1 credit, so be as specific as possible in your prompts to get the best results.

Absolutely! Our AI can easily remove or swap out unwanted items from your photos. Simply describe what you want removed or replaced in your prompt. For example, you can remove outdated furniture, personal items, clutter, or even architectural elements. You can also swap out existing furniture for different styles - like replacing a leather sofa with a fabric sectional, or changing a traditional dining table to a modern one. Just be specific about what you want removed and what you'd like to see instead.

Yes! We provide comprehensive customer support through our Help Center and email support (support@stagingwizard.com). Our team is available to help with technical issues, account questions, and staging advice. We also offer tutorials and best practices guides to help you get the most out of Staging Wizard.

Absolutely! We take data security seriously. All uploaded photos are encrypted and stored securely. We never share your images or personal data with third parties. Your photos are only used to generate your staged images and are automatically deleted after processing. We comply with all major data protection regulations.

Real Estate Professionals

Virtual staging helps properties sell 50% faster on average by helping buyers visualize the potential of empty spaces. Staged properties typically sell for 6-10% more than unstaged properties. Virtual staging is also 10x faster and 90% cheaper than traditional staging, making it accessible for all price points and property types.

Virtual staging works great for all property types including single-family homes, condos, townhouses, apartments, and commercial spaces. It's particularly effective for empty properties, properties with outdated furniture, or when traditional staging isn't practical. Our Virtual Staging Wizard adapts to different architectural styles and room sizes.

Yes! You can stage as many rooms as you need for a property. Each room counts as one generation credit, so you can stage living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, and other spaces to create a complete property presentation. Many agents stage 3-5 key rooms to showcase the property's full potential.

Yes! We offer special pricing for real estate agencies and teams that need high-volume staging. Our Sorcerer plan includes 500 credits per month with unlimited free downloads, perfect for busy agencies. For even higher volume needs, contact our sales team at sales@stagingwizard.com for custom pricing and volume discounts.

Troubleshooting

If your image isn't processing, check that it's in a supported format (JPG, PNG, WEBP) and under 10MB in size. Ensure the image shows a clear view of the room and isn't too dark or blurry. If you continue having issues, contact our support team for assistance.

Yes! You can stage the same room multiple times with different styles, furniture arrangements, or target buyers. Each staging attempt uses one generation credit. This is great for A/B testing different staging approaches or creating seasonal variations of the same space.

If you run out of credits, you can purchase additional credits through our credit reload system or upgrade to a subscription plan. Your credits are restored immediately after purchase, so you can continue staging right away.
