About us

VSH Media (Virtual Staging House) was founded by Marc Avila, a visionary entrepreneur and seasoned real estate professional with over 18 years of experience as a Chicago Real Estate Broker. Marc's journey began when he faced the challenge of furnishing his listings efficiently without exceeding budget constraints. While traditional home staging was effective, its high cost often proved prohibitive. Recognizing the need for a smarter, more cost-effective alternative, Marc pioneered the concept of virtual staging—and thus, VSH Media was born.

By leveraging virtual staging, Marc not only saved thousands of dollars per listing but also redirected those savings into impactful marketing strategies such as advertising campaigns, brochures, property websites, and more. This innovative approach significantly shortened the time it took to sell his listings, addressing a common problem many buyers face—struggling to visualize an unfurnished space as a livable home. Virtual staging became the game-changing solution, blending creativity with technology to transform empty spaces into inviting, furnished properties.

Over the years, Marc’s passion for innovation has led VSH Media to embrace cutting-edge technologies like AI to revolutionize the real estate industry.  

Today, over a decade later, VSH Media has virtually staged thousands of homes worldwide. As a real estate agent-owned company, we stay ahead of industry trends, constantly innovating to develop new tools and services that empower agents to market listings more effectively. From our AI-powered virtual staging solutions to hybrid staging offerings, VSH Media continues to set the standard in real estate technology.

Marc’s vision extends beyond virtual staging. His passion for empowering agents to succeed has inspired a range of innovative products designed to make VSH Media a one-stop shop for all things real estate. Whether it’s transforming unfurnished properties, utilizing 3D technology, nationwide HDR photography, or rolling out new marketing tools, VSH Media combines Marc’s real estate expertise with the latest advancements in technology to elevate your success.

And the industry has taken notice. Marc’s groundbreaking work has been featured in leading publications, including Inman News, and CNN highlighting the transformative power of virtual staging.
