Home Staging
What is Home Staging?
Staging is creating a model home atmosphere to enhance the features and appeal of a home that is listed for sale. Staging can be utilized for any home and creates a higher perceived value in the eyes of a buyer. Most buyers cannot visualize the home furnished and therefore can’t see themselves living in the home. Buyers make a decision about a home in the first 90 seconds and only spend 6 minutes, on average, looking at a home. Staged homes sell faster than un-staged homes and at a higher average price, and staging costs less than your first price reduction. Staging is a strategy that gives your home a marketing edge.

Redesign Services
What is Redesign?
Redesign is an effective way to give a furnished home more interior appeal and curb appeal. We will help identify the positives and negatives that buyers will see and put together a plan of action to offer solutions to problem areas, so that your listing will appeal to the broadest range of buyers possible. We do this by helping you enhance the positives and diminishing or eliminating the negative elements. We also help you de-clutter the home, and rearrange, reposition, or remove existing furniture. Every recommendation given is to draw attention to certain areas and away from others. Redesign increases your home’s appeal and uniqueness. We have a creative solution to any problem and often incorporate unique aspects of the home in our designs. Redesign is an affordable way to enhance your home's value and help you sell faster.

How much does Home Staging or Redesign cost?
That depends on the scope of the project and category of the service. Each project is unique and will vary in cost depending on the individual design and specifications. We begin with a free consultation to view the home, discuss your needs, and determine what we feel is necessary to fully showcase the home. Considering the needs of the client, we provide a recommendation and/or proposal for our services. In some cases, we provide proposals for both a Complete and Partial Stage. In many instances, we are able to do a Partial Stage in order to keep costs to a minimum. For Redesign projects, clients may opt to do some of the work themselves to lower the cost. Whatever the need or budget, we are here to help you successfully market your home. We will do everything we can to help make the process hassle-free.
Some determining factors for pricing:
Pricing is determined by the scope of the project. A lot of consideration is given to the size of the home (sq ft), if the home has high ceilings, tile or wood floors, spacious rooms, large wall space, etc. all of which will require more props to successfully complete the staging process. High ceilings require larger fuller palms, tile or wood floors usually require rugs, large empty walls will require larger scale paintings and artwork.
In order to give you or your client a fair and accurate quote for staging it becomes necessary to look at the property to make these determinations.
How long will it take from start to finish?
Again, that depends on the size and scope of the project. For Staging and Redesign, we generally take, on average, anywhere from 2 days to 14 days to complete a project. In some instances, when there is more involved work for larger scale projects, it may take a little longer. In every case, we will do our best to meet the client's time frames and still provide the highest quality service.
