Staging clients come along a very winding road. One of my earliest projects was a $300 partial staging job on a smallish Victorian home in a not-so-wonderful part of town that was also financially very upside down. I staged it so as to highlight a corner built-in Eastlake firplace, the staging was memorable, it eventually sold for the fourth Realtor (albeit for a loss to the sellers, but it sold). Two years later I get a call from the second Realtor, looking for a Stager to refer to a Realtor in her office. She notes Ebrahimi and asks, "Did you stage an old house in Gaithersburg on Walker Ave some time ago?" Long story short, I just finished an $8,000 project on the redo and staging of a 1990 luxury town house in Gaithersburg for her office! Small world of long, winding roads. So true, Debra.
