Staging Consultation with exclusive detailed Staging report

This consultation begins with a thorough walk-through of the exterior and interior of the home.  We take several photos of each room to highlight areas of concern or to designate the focal point of each room.  After taking notes and formulating a plan, we then begin preparing your exclusive detailed Staging report. This 20-40 page report includes:

• Customized room-by-room enhancement recommendations
• Property photos showing you what the buyer sees
• Recommendations of repairs and/or improvements
• A list of the top ten staging priorities
• General staging guideline sheet explaining the “standards” of home staging room by room

Armed with this report, you can immediately begin doing the work yourself or hiring the painters, cleaners, packers, and/or handymen needed to get the work done.

“Walk and Talk” Staging Consultation

This consultation is a complete walk-through of the interior and exterior of the home.  We will discuss strengths and weaknesses of the property as well as suggestions and recommendations you will need to prepare your home for sale.  Have a paper and pen ready to take down notes as we walk and talk.  This consultation includes the general staging guideline sheet.

One Day Edit

After assessing your property, we will pick the four main areas (usually the kitchen/dining, family room, master bedroom/bath, and living room) to be staged.  Using your furnishings, we get to work editing, arranging, accessorizing, and placing furniture in order to fully stage these rooms.   See Accessories Rental/Shopping Trip if additional items are needed.

Full Service Staging

Our full service staging goes beyond One Day Edit to complete the preparation of all additional rooms in the home.  Furniture layout, proper accessorizing and lighting are just a few of the areas we consider when Staging each room for show.  Full service Staging results in the home feeling “unified’ by connecting each space aesthetically.  Buyers will love your home’s amazing new look!

Vacant Staging

A vacant property is cold and uninviting; whereas a staged home is warm, welcoming and provides a frame of reference as to the scale and size of the room.  Studies show that vacant homes tend to stay on the market for longer and usually sell for a lower sales price.  By placing furniture and accessories throughout the home, it allows a buyer to visualize themselves living there; it creates the emotion needed to make a sale.  We offer vacant stage services that range from partially staging the home, meaning we pick key rooms to stage, to staging a complete model home showcase. We can accommodate any size home and budget.

Stage to Live

Moving into a new home or want to “freshen” up the look of your current home?  We can help with that too!  Our staging services can help you with color schemes, furniture placement, placing of accessories, hanging wall art, and much more.  We can use what you currently have and love in new and unexpected ways.  Working with you and understanding your needs for the room, we help you transform your house into your dream home.
