Virtual Staging typically is ordered by the photo, we have found over the years that agents don't always know how many photos they want at time of the order. They need to see the finished images to know how many image they would like virtually staged. We suggest you create a Virtual Staging Service . Inside this service you can detail your actual pricing in the description section but set the price to be flat rate $0.00.

Example of Virtual Staging Service Setup:

Now when you clients place and order they will select Virtual Staging, we will now create a task to help you manage the process after the shoot.
