What is the State of the Staging Industry?

RESA®’s living research project. We collect verified inputs from professional stagers and publish actionable benchmarks.

Our 2025 Goal: A Clear Picture of Staging Across North America

To truly understand how vacant home staging impacts sales, pricing, and business growth, we need data that represents the reality of stagers in every corner of North America.

Our goal is to hear from at least 20 companies in every U.S. state and 10 in every Canadian province—but the more voices we have, the stronger and more accurate the story becomes.

With higher participation, we can move beyond national averages and start showing:

  • State and regional trends that help stagers benchmark their businesses

  • Pricing and inventory insights that reflect real market conditions

  • Education priorities that support the growth of our profession

Even if your business is small or new, your experience helps fill in a piece of the larger picture. Every completed survey strengthens our ability to advocate for you, educate agents, and share the measurable impact of professional staging.

Help us reach this milestone—and shape the most comprehensive industry report ever published by RESA®.
