Staged the home with rented furnishings and accessories. The home was completely transformed. Buyers were able to see the full potential and renovations became an option, rather than a necessity. The home itself had generous pro- portions and made for a wonderful family home. How has the Staging industry changed since your accred- itation in 2005 and where is it headed? PT: With all the electronic and communications develop- ments of the last 10 years, working with clients abroad has become so much easier. I’ve worked with several clients that I’ve never even met! Of late, we’ve seen an uptick in foreign investors purchasing property that they intend to rent out and the realtor refers them to us to make the property stand out from other rental properties on the market. So for us, it’s doing a little of both: “Staging to Sell” and “Staging to Live.” We set up the property so that they will have great photos for the MLS [Multiple Listing Service] listing, but also the spaces are functional and representative of the area they are located in. We have had great success in this area and look forward to taking on more projects like this. The client can rest assured that we will understand their objectives, work within their budget and time frame and the end result will be a product that will provide them with a great return on investment.

“Most of all, I remember the reaction of the owners coming home to see the home they’d lived in for several years take on a whole new life.”
