[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s hard to get a sense of scale in a room without furniture.  Good staging shows you what’s possible.  [/quote]

Sometimes. Also sometimes staging tricks because homes are almost never staged in a way that people will actually live in it. Like it's common os take living rooms with just a seating area and no TV. But in a lot of homes (most) the living room is the only place to put a TV and the homeowners will put one there. It might look nice with a love seat and two arm chairs floating in the middle of the room, but then when you try to but a sectional in and find a place for the TV that isn't in front of a window, it doesn't look as good.

Staging can also be used to cover defects and problems. Filling shelves with perfectly coordinated and matching decor distracts from a lack of electrical outlets. A huge piece of art in the living room can draw the eye away from some not-quite-90-degree angles in the room demonstrating some awkward building settlement.

I'd rather see an empty home so I know what I am getting. I have a measuring tape and an imagination for the rest.

That said, we'll probably stage our place when we sell because most buyers are like PP, not me.[/quote]
