According to this ad by Property Image Consultants; it's an "accepted fact that staged homes sell faster and for more money." I assume they mean to say that staged homes sell faster and for more money than homes that are not staged. Problem is, I have NEVER seen a shred of statistically significant evidence that shows a positive correlation (much less causality) between staged homes and sale price or time on market.
So I say to all staging consultants that it's neither a fact nor accepted that home staging does anything except maybe rip people off. If anyone can prove otherwise, let me know.
