I agree with Nickie about staging the second condo bedroom as such. Unless it doesn't have a closet and it's the type of building that would appeal to young professionals, in which case I would show it as a home office, perhaps with a loveseat that could be a fold out bed (if there was enough space). That would suggest home office and guest room and wouldn't be a big stretch for the buyer to realize that the love seat takes up about the same amount of space as a single bed. Thanks for raising awareness of the importance of home staging! Given the current state of the real estate market, it's never been more important for home sellers to showcase their properties to best advantage.
