23: To Stage, or Not to Stage? And the Difference Between Staging & Interior Design

This week we discuss a question Maggie recently received: "Is it better to stage a house with worn out crappy furniture, or to leave it vacant?" That part of the conversation starts at 23:08. Later in the conversation, Rich asks Maggie the difference between home staging and interior design and she clarifies the important distinction.We begin the episode with Rich sharing one of the hardest things he's ever had to do: Fire someone. He shares the story right in our first segment. Maggie recounts running into an former boss recently from her early twenties who fired her after working at the company for 6 months.
