This past Monday I had a corporate rental installation. Everything went smoothly and since I had a luncheon appointment, my assistant handled most of the furniture directing, unpacking, etc.
Because this order included a washer and dryer, I made sure to locate the laundry room for my assistant and I noticed that half of the window trim was missing. I thought it was odd and assumed our new home owner knew about it.
Today when discussing a few items with the client he asked about the missing window trim. He thought perhaps my delivery guys had caused the damage when installing his rental washer/dryer set. After I told him I saw that and thought he already knew about it, he was glad to have my word as "back up" and is going to contact his REA.
Whew! Glad that I had taken the time to get to the house before the delivery guys and that I had checked things out ahead of time. Moral of the story is: always inspect all areas of the home you, or your delivery crew, will be bringing things into and ALSO check out all areas when you are done. A Stager can save themselves a lot of potential stress by noting any damages ahead of time and ensuring when everything is installed that no damage has occurred.
