staging: Do you stage a home for the photo shoot??
- 03/19/12 10:44 PM
As a professional home stager it is critical that I see the "staging potential" of the home. In order to do that, I need to know a bit about the home and the area it's in. You've heard the saying that you want to be the smallest house in the nicest neighborhood, well in home staging terms, that means "staging potential." If the home is the least expensive in the area, and the comparables are much higher than the asking price of the home then there is great opportunity for Phase 3, cosmetic home staging. There are three keys to selling a home and when all … (3 comments)

staging: WHY STAGE EMPTY PROPERTIES
- 08/05/10 12:34 AM

Once the mirror was hung, it not only reflected the natural light; it became a focal point of the room as would a piece of art, but more economical may I add. In addition it seemed to open up … (2 comments)
