I just came home from my most awesome meeting with a client EVER! For the first time I didn't have to explain anything about the benefits of staging or walk them through the details of what would be involved.
You ask were they rich? NO! 
Are they careless with their spending? NO!
What would make them just dive in, write a check and say "Let's do it?" Because their last home in Southern California was staged and they saw how quickly it sold and the huge difference staging made in the marketing of their home. Now they are methodically preparing for the sale by replacing worn carpets, touching up painting and making all of the repairs prior to listing with an agent. This home will be in top condition, decorated beautifully and buyers are going to sit up and take notice! This home was a former Parade of Homes winner a few years ago. It will be pristine and move-in ready, and it is going to blow the competition away!
Thanks to whoever in California laid the groundwork before me and made my job so much easier. I dream of the day when staging is so readily accepted and welcomed by sellers and agents in my area.
