		<description>Hi Scott,

I&#039;m glad you enjoy my blog!

Thank you so much for letting me know about the lack of a trademark on &quot;home staging&quot;. I believed what I was told in my HomeStaging.Com training. I just checked the trademarks database and you are correct! Shame on them!</description>

		<description>Hi Barb,

I&#039;ve enjoyed reading your website and blog. I am a home stager in Rochester, NY.

FYI, home staging is not a registered trademark. Barb Schwartz has tried to intimidate Realtors and others in the industry into thinking she owns a trademark.  She has a trademark on the word &quot;stage&quot; for published videos related to education in real estate. Other forms of the word are not covered by this trademark.  Home staging is a generic term, and can be used freely.

Take care!
Scott</description>
