A nicely staged home would likely have been nicer than a couple of examples of "stuff" left behind I have unfortunately encountered(albeit on rare occasion) over the years.

Nearly.  The last settlement I had the stager wasn't getting her crap out until the buyer provided a commitment letter.  Mind you, I had the buyer...and we had delivered a commitment letter for the loan.  I think he just forgot to tell her to come get her stuff.

I just did a month ago, sold th emodel home of a new home community, They were suppose to remove furniture, repaint kitchen, living room and halls then clean carpets. 2 weeks before, then a week before, called every day and they did it the night before closing. The morning of, walked through expecting nothing to be done and it was. They never called us back wth any updates in 2 weeks.

A REALTOR® that works with me does the listing and has his own staging so we avoid that but this would be a problem.

Only once.

Turned out the stager did not have storage space available and was stalling, waiting for a new listing to become ready to receive this material. They were successful. A little inconvenience and it all worked out for everyone.

No, but we hardly ever stage homes in my area. I guess this is why it's important to complete a final walk-through before closing.
