Sales tax is required by law in the state of Florida when renting tangible goods—such as furniture and decor—which is what staging involves. We are not charging this tax ourselves; we are legally required to collect and remit it directly to the state. If you’re hiring us only for Vacation Rental Design or Consulting Services, those are considered service-based and are not subject to sales tax. However, all Vacant Home Staging projects involve the rental of physical inventory and therefore must include sales tax. If you are tax-exempt, simply send us your current Florida Sales Tax Exemption Certificate, and we will gladly remove sales tax from your invoice.
