In this episode I talk with Michelle Finnamore of Michelle Finnamore Interiors LTD and Advantage Staging. Michelle has been staging since 2007 as well as redesigning homes once the seller has moved into their new home. Renovations are another stream of income as well as designing model homes. Michelle’s office was located inside a brokerage for over 10 years which allowed her to help educate agents on the power and effect of professional home staging. Michelle has appeared on several TV shows including Top Million Dollar Agent and soon to be released Reno Pro.
