Yes, we strongly recommend temporarily removing your listing during the Staging process. This gives you a chance to re-list the property as newly Staged and refreshes your listing on MLS and real estate search sites—often bumping it back to the top of Buyer searches. If you stay active during the Staging prep window (which averages 7 days), you’re at risk of receiving an offer before the home is fully Staged. Since our payments are non-refundable once we begin, this can create unnecessary stress and financial loss for the Seller. It’s best to pause your listing, let us work our magic, then come back strong with a beautiful, market-ready presentation.
