Today's topic was requested by successful home stager Theresa Ceglio of We Stage Jacksonville:
Home stagers get a lot of push back in this hot seller's market both from the agents and home sellers. They feel they don’t need to do anything to their listings or properties because everything is selling so quickly. I work with agents that see the value in staging and won’t take a listing if they won’t stage it.
How can we as stagers really get through to those who are leaving so much money on the table? They have the stats, they see what’s happening and I know they know what other agents are making in extra commissions but they just don’t budge. We educate constantly but so many are missing out and that translates to us missing out, too.
If you're a home stager who is getting frustrated with the realtors in your area who simply don't seem to value staging, this episode is just for you.
