I was hired by realtors to bring furniture and small ideas into vacant houses and give the buyers a taste of what the house could look like if they bought it.
It was easier to sell a house that was furnished and decorated, than if it was empty. I carefully went through every room in the latest house, and looked to see what I could use to make it look like it just came out of a magazine. When I got to the bathroom, I was confused. The master thermostat for the HVAC system was in the bathroom. I thought it was a silly place to put the main thermostat in the bathroom, but I didn’t design the house. All I did was come into the house and stage it for sale. I had to play with the thermostat to make sure it was actually the master thermostat. The furnace and the AC unit both responded to the program I put into the thermostat. I thought it was funny and I laughed the entire time I was doing my job. I couldn’t wait to go home and tell my husband. Before I left the house, I decorated the bathroom, and then I checked to see if there was a thermostat for the bathroom heater. That’s when I realized this was the only room that didn’t have a draft. There were no windows, and it was in an inner space. I wondered what would happen if you were taking a hot shower? Would the thermostat shut down the heat to the entire house? I shook my head and walked. I wondered how many people would actually think about the thermostat’s location before buying the house.
