REO REAL ESTATE

When a home is put on the market, the property must make a transition from “home place” to “show place.” In other words, the home becomes a stage, not for the current owner, but for the prospective owner, a place where potential buyers can picture themselves living their lives and dreaming their dreams.

To make sure a home is properly staged some real estate agents are adding “stagent” to their business card. “Stagent is a term coined to indicate that an agent can advise a homeowner on how best to stage their home. Preparing a property in this manner means an agent can speak knowledgeably about home renovations and design principles such as furniture arranging, accessorizing and lighting.
