Transitional Is Not All It's Cracked Up to Be
Two conversations on this topic in a three week period are getting on my nerves. Let me explain. We have been hired by homeowners (a trend that is really happening a lot lately), not referred by a Realtor, twice in the past few weeks. Actually, in both cases the Realtor had a stager they usually hire, but the homeowners found us through other sources and liked what they saw, so they hired us. In both cases the Realtors were not happy as they always use a certain Staging Company in the area (there is something to be said for loyalty here as I love my Realtors and they are loyal to me too). Here is the thing that is getting on my nerves. Both of these houses have Realtors who want (no matter what the property design or demographics of the area) their listings to be staged in transitional style with a touch of Asian. Yes, I mean always. It's aggravating and annoying to have to explain that we don't always design in any particular style and that since the Homeowner has paid me and trusts that I know what I am doing they will have to have a little trust too. I looked at the Realtors websites and their Stagers do a lovely job, but I have to say every house no matter what the design (Victorian, Craftsman, Bungalow, and Tuscan etc) they all had Transitional with a touch of Asian. What am I missing? Is it their EGO? Is it just disappointment that their usual Stager missed out on a job? Not sure, but its driving me a bit crazy. I would never tell a Realtor - make sure you price that property $______________ Mr. Realtor as I have staged dozens of houses here and they always sell at that price. Always.
