For those currently shopping for home: When you view a place that has been staged, does it bother you?
Do you feel a little bit llike the seller is “cheating” in a way because it’s not how anyone’s home *really* looks? Usually you can tell a place has been staged because they have something like an antique sewing machine in a small bedroom by itself or a café table in the dining room with wine glasses and napkins folded to stick up as high as they possibly can.
Yeah it usually bugs the crap out of me when I see a staged house… I mean, I like a house to be TIDY, and clean, but not like a magazine cover shoot!
I love it when the house is empty, it gives my imagination more room to play with… but then again, I also like a house that looks lived in, even with kids toys all over or something… makes me feel like we could live there comfortably, because look! someone else is!
I don’t really think the seller is “cheating” per se, but I do agree- not many peoples houses look like the staged ones you see on TV!
