Unstaged Living Rooms

February 20th, 2012 · 6 Comments

Here are four living rooms with different ideas of home staging when selling.

This Portland, Oregon seller went for the “daily living” look.

This Phoenix seller opted for the big-furniture-cramped-together look.

This Portland, Oregon seller likes things neat and compact.

These Sun City West, Arizona sellers went minimalistic.  They like staring at walls from a distance.

    HAHA, that’s how I vacuum! I declutter, dust, then pile everything else on a couch or table to quickly get everything. That’s funny.

    Who in the world takes these kinds of pictures? Are they supposed to be professional? For the sake of a sale, wait until the packing and/or cleaning is done. I would fire any realtor who did this to me.

    At least Portland has the right idea..I would think that living room in picture #1 would look really nice with the fireplace, clerestory windows, large front window, and wood floors if staged a little.

    I think they’re right, they should move. Poor house.

    There appears to be an elf peering in the window

    I do not understand why the agents take photos like these. Are they so busy they do not have a moment to move over or pull the distracting element from the photo?
