Hey all, I was wondering if anyone has ever had to restage a staged home?  I have a client whose home has been on the market for over 18 months at the request of the their latest Realtor I was asked to see if anything could be done to help make an impact.  Not knowing beforehand the home had previously been staged, I went in and could see some efforts had been made but fell way short.  It was later that I found out the home had been staged.  No-Way!  This concerns me that there are stagers not doing the best they can do, or not knowing what they are doing, and putting other stagers under scrutiny that do know what they are doing.

Are you wondering what the other stager did?  Here's a sample... the walls were painted white except for the living room that was painted a soft lemon.  There was outdated wallpaper in the den, and poorly sponge painted walls with a dated border in the powder room.  That's my first impression of this home.  This home was still stuck in the mid-80's.  Not nice.  This was just the foyer. It gets better, but I'll spare you.
