A Realtor searching for a Stager in Northern Virginia called to ask how much I would charge to Stage a property. First, I assured her it was in both our best interests that I not provide pricing over the phone. I have learned my lesson regarding giving quotes on properties, sight unseen! What's the saying, "once bitten, twice shy? Second, I informed the caller that I my territories are Maryland and D.C. and happily referred her to a fellow Active Rain Stager. I was confident the Stager would assist her both promptly and professionally. No referral fee, just hoping to assist the agent with getting her listing sold.
I quickly sent an e-mail to the other Stager, giving her a heads up to expect a call. She sent a reply thanking me, which was nice.
Within ten minutes, I had a referral e-mail from an agent who saw the very referral I gave to the Northern Virginia Stager, asking if I Stage D.C. and if so would I have an interest in looking at a property, he may want to Stage. I replied that I would be more than happy to assist him with his listing. Just like that, my good deed rewarded. One good turn deserves another, indeed!
Below is an example of my latest D.C. Stage! I hope he likes my style!
