Staging Two Houses at Once Part II - 13877 SW 95th Avenue, Tigard, OR ~ $519,900 - 01/10/09 03:10 PM
Synergy Staging was recently asked by a local builder to stage two of their properties near Portland, Oregon.   After sitting on the market for many months, these wonderful homes were just not selling, despite multiple showings and the beautiful workmanship.  We've worked with builders many times, but have never staged two houses at the same time that were next door to each other.  This was a large job that we paced over 3 days to get just the results we wanted.
