About the Staging Industry

You should understand that home staging is currently a completely  unregulated business. When you see a home stager or re-designer with a bunch of acronyms after their name, they are most likely graduates of a 2 or 3 day course offered by a variety of businesses whose aim is to make money. These training programs can be found in most major cities.  They do not screen their applicants for talent, ability, experience, knowledge or prior education. They do not test or regulate practices. They basically charge their students for presenting them with all the same information that is readily available to anyone in a book store or on the internet.  Most of these training "programs" do include lunch with the trainer, though!  A graduate of any of these programs may have no design, marketing or real estate experience at all. We're not saying that a stager with A.C.R.O.N.Y.M. after their name is not talented, they may well be. Always look at their work, ask them for references, and see what they have done in order to determine what they can do. Be specific with your questions, and don’t assume that pictures placed in their portfolio are actual photos of work they have done. Don’t let your decision be based on the presence of a purchased certification. Your home is probably your most valuable asset, be sure you are getting the professional services you expect and deserve!
