CAROL…

YES! THANK YOU… I agree 100%. When one stages they need not strip the house down to a sterile empty shell.

I see too much staging being a “cookie cut” interpretation of what is tought in a class.

An occupided home can be cleand up, “set” right and look appealing with being a boring sterile staged cloned.

If the home is occupied I tell the seller if it looks “staged” when I am done… then I have NOT done my work. I also advised the seller NOT to have it advertised as being staged. I do not one potential buyers to come in and be looking to see what makes the house “staged”. I do NOT want buyers distracted from looking at the HOUSE… not the stuff or the stuff in it or how the stuff is arranged.

THANKS so much for this GREAT post… to me you are spot on.

PS: Your post is getting my brain cooking… I think I need to write more on what you had to say.
