Local Stager Feared Assault
Today at the weekly Realtors Marketing Association in San Ramon, Cathy Lee, well-known stager and owner of CLDesigns told me she feared for her life the other night when two very intimidating men walked in on her while she was staging a $2 million new construction home in Lafayette, CA.
The power had yet to be hooked up and the light was fading when the first man entered. The man was acting and talking strange. When the second man entered Cathy reached for her phone only to discover she had set it down across the room. As she moved toward her phone, one of the men blocked her path.
It was at that moment, that Kurt Waag, Cathy’s husband showed up and saved the day. After the men left and Cathy settled down a bit, she and Kurt checked the house and discovered that all of the doors had been unlocked by the two men leading them to think that maybe burglary was also in the works.
Cathy told me she is going to sign up for Pam Ellis’ women’s self-defense class – Staying Alive.
We continue to bring situations like this to the attention of local real estate agents and affiliates to help raise awareness of the need to “think safety” all the time when showing property or sitting open houses.
