** As you become an ASP^® Real Estate Agent and each year you renew your ASP^® membership you can post unlimited listings on Stagedhomes.com^®. This gives you a huge marketing advantage over other Real Estate Agents who are not ASP’s in your area.

*** If you are not actively listing and selling homes or working with buyers and are inactive outside of maintaining your license, you are not eligible to attend the ASP-RE Course and would have to attend the 3 Day Course. This is because if you are not active in your market, your intent would be to have a staging business and you need to enroll in the ASP Stager Business course to learn the proper way to set up, market, price and manage a staging business.
