RESA’s Mission & Vision

Our Mission

Advancing professionalism and excellence in real estate staging by creating industry standards in order to maximize profit potential for consumers and industry professionals.

Our Vision

Our vision is an industry where high standards are well-established and practiced universally, and the use of professional staging is standard practice when selling real estate.

Our History

Founded in 2007 and recognized as a 501(c)(6) trade association in 2009, RESA® unites the staging industry around standards, ethics, education, and community—serving as the independent, member-driven voice for home stagers across North America.

Code of Ethics

For consumers: Honest marketing, transparent communications, and respect for privacy and safety.

For stagers: Clear standards that elevate the profession, protect reputations, and encourage fair competition.

What is a trade association—and how is RESA® different?

RESA® is a 501(c)(6) member-driven business league—not a privately owned, for-profit company. We exist to improve business conditions for the entire staging industry through neutrality, standards, education, and advocacy.

What to Look For in a Trade Association
