Listings that Stand Out: Attract Top Dollar with Expert Staging



We offer a free quote if your home is within a short distance. A consultation will follow if you decide to use our service.

Step One: Free Quote / Consultation

We will visit your home at a scheduled date to check your home's condition and take pictures to give you a free quote, if your home is within a short distance. We do not offer free consultations but should you decide to use our service after you receive our quote, we will give you a detailed consultation. In some cases, if we already know that we are doing the staging job, a thorough consultation will proceed during the visit to your home.

Should you decide to get your home ready by yourself but are not sure what to do, how to proceed and you need a professional advice, then we can help you. We offer a consultation service where we will walk and talk you through your home; give you detailed ideas and suggestions; discuss various solutions on how to make your home more presentable at minimum cost. We can either do it verbally or in a written report -- your choice. Our consultation fee is based on the size and location of your home. It starts at $125+tax.

Step Two: Maintenance and Repair Work

After we complete the consultation, you can decide to do some of the repair work by yourself, hire a contractor or let us arrange reliable trades for you. This step could involve the following services, maybe more or less depending on the condition of the property and your requirements, or maybe none at all:

  • Arranging and scheduling contractors
  • Packing
  • Painting
  • Repairs
  • Replace floor (if necessary)
  • Replace lighting fixtures (if necessary)
  • Replace curtains (if necessary)
  • Cleaning
  • Landscaping

Our fee for this step is based on the scope of the work required. We will try to help you to do minimum repair with minimum cost to bring you the maximum result.

Step Three: Home staging

After completing Step one and two above, we will schedule a day to do the final showcase work. We will maximize the use of your existing furniture and accessories, also will bring in necessary pictures and decor accessories, or furniture if needed.  The time to do a job normally takes one or two days -- we will transform your home to have the best appeal to potential buyers.

The fee is based on your property size, your existing furniture or decorating items, selling price, and the amount of work involved.

Our staging services include condos, townhouses, occupied houses, and vacant houses. We have the ability to design and source all kinds of furniture style, art work, and decorating accessories to make your home beautiful to attract the most buyers, for money well spent.


Top 10 Benefits of Home Staging for Homeowners and Realtors



Home staging is a strategic approach to preparing a home for sale, maximizing its appeal to potential buyers. Here's a breakdown of the top 10 benefits, highlighting the advantages for both homeowners and realtors:

Benefits for Homeowners:

  1. Faster Sales: Staged homes tend to sell quicker, reducing the time your property sits on the market. This translates to less stress, inconvenience, and potentially lower carrying costs (mortgage, utilities).
  2. Higher Selling Price: Studies suggest staged homes can sell for 5-20% more than non-staged homes. A well-staged property creates a positive first impression and highlights its best features, justifying a higher asking price.
  3. Increased Buyer Interest: Staging creates a more inviting and desirable atmosphere, attracting a wider pool of potential buyers and generating more interest in your property.
  4. Stronger Offers: Staged homes often receive more competitive offers, giving homeowners greater leverage during negotiations.
  5. Reduced Stress: A staged home requires less explaining and allows buyers to visualize themselves living in the space. This can lead to a smoother and less stressful selling experience.

Benefits for Realtors:

  1. Increased Client Satisfaction: Happy sellers lead to happy realtors! Helping homeowners achieve a faster sale and potentially higher price with staging strengthens your reputation and client satisfaction.
  2. More Listings: By promoting the benefits of home staging, you can attract more sellers who are serious about maximizing their return on investment.
  3. Stand Out from the Competition: In a competitive market, staged listings get noticed. This can give you an edge when attracting new clients and marketing properties.
  4. Faster Closings: Faster sales through staging mean quicker commissions for realtors, allowing you to move on to the next client and generate more income.
  5. Enhanced Professional Image: Realtors who advocate for home staging demonstrate their expertise and commitment to helping clients achieve the best possible outcome.
