Seller acknowledges that home staging is a premium professional service designed to enhance the property’s visual appeal, create an emotional connection with buyers, and increase marketability. Industry data and market experience show that staged homes typically attract more buyer interest and often sell faster than non-staged homes. Staging highlights the home’s best features, improves flow and functionality, and helps buyers envision themselves living in the property.

Stager agrees to provide home staging services for a vacant property, which may include but are not limited to staging of primary interior rooms (living areas, dining area, bedrooms, bathrooms, and other applicable spaces); furniture, décor, artwork, rugs, lighting, and accessories; and selective exterior or outdoor staging such as patios, porches, or entry areas, as applicable.
