		<description>The seller always pays for staging.   If you are not &quot;in tune&quot; with the fees, take your agents advice and stage yourself or wing it and pray it sells.

Your agent is going to expend bare minimun hundreds maybe thousands of dollars advertising the property with no guarantee that the property is going to sell and net any return on their investment.  Expecting the agent to pay for staging is ridiculous.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Oregon Realtor</description>

		<description>Staging is always a seller expense.  If you don&#039;t like the professional staging fees, you are always entitled to try to stage it yourself for less cost.

If the agent told you to paint the outside of the house a different color to make it more attractive, would you expect the agent to pay for the painting ?  Same applies to staging.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>The seller would pay for this, it would never be an agents expense.  I have no idea where you get the idea that the buyer might, but it will never happen.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>The seller pays for it.  You want to sell your house, then you must do what it takes and pay for it.  You expect someone else to pay for improvements so you can sell your house?  Do you know any of those generous people that can help me too?

Don&#039;t resent the agent their commission either.  It is their salary for doing a job just like you get paid for your job by your boss.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
