It seems there is a lack of information available to Realtors about how the process actually works. It really is very simple, but lacking clarity on the Realtor's responsibilities may be what is holding some agents back from using the service. Here is a simple outline that may help you navigate your way into adding a stager to your team:
1. Find a Stager.
2. Introduce the concept of Staging to your clients.
3. Set up a meeting with your client and the Stager. They will determine what needs to happen next.
4. The Staging Consultation/Bid.
5. Staging work is completed in a timely manner coinciding with your marketing plan.
6. Market the house.
See? It really is very simple. Now, I know you may still have a lot of questions based on these steps, but never fear. In upcoming blogs, I will expand upon each step with more detailed information. But as a Realtor, you really have a limited amount of work to do in the staging process. If you have partnered with a professional and organized stager, she/he will complete the work necessary within your expressed time frame and keep you informed every step of the way.
As an Accredited Staging Professional, I believe that communication is the key to a successful staging experience. If you have specific questions about these steps, feel free to post them here and I will answer in the corresponding blog.
