Home Staging for Serious Sellers: Home Staging "Don's"

I'd like to post a few photos here occasionally, as I come across them. Some of these will be from my own collection of photos from homes I've photographed, some will be photos that are NOT mine, but I've seen on the mls, and pulled to use as examples of what NOT to do when you're selling your house.

First up, this photo of a kitchen that's not all that bad, but from the standpoint of staging, as well as real estate photography, the gigantic red missile-shaped trash can is an all-around no no. ?Photographically, it overpowers literally everything else in the photo, screaming for attention. ?And when a prospective buyer is there in person, it will do the same thing. Add to that, the large amount of floorspace it is sucking up, and it's undeniable - this thing needs to go!
