Staging to Sell - STAGING WITH OUR FURNISHINGS

VACANT PROPERTIES - (both new and pre-owned homes) 

Staging spotlights your home’s positive features and provides warmth, dimension and visual impact to every staged room, so that potential Buyers will “fall in love.” By using coordinated and updated furnishings that appeal to your home’s target buyer, staging maximizes the perceived value of the property. 

Staging Consultations - IDEAL FOR DO-IT-YOURSELFers

OCCUPIED PROPERTIES- (using your own furnishings) 

We provide customized staging recommendations - room by room - for you to implement. Our consultation includes a PowerPoint presentation that displays the differences that staging will make, and shows how to achieve dramatic results on your own with a little guidance from us. You take notes and execute our recommendations after the Consultation is completed.

One-Day Staging Makeovers - REDISCOVER / RENEW / REFRESH

A staging makeover is a “facelift” for one room or your entire home. We provide this hands-on service for staging your home with your existing furnishings. Whether you are putting your property on the market, or just want to refresh the look of your current home without spending a lot of money, we work with you to achieve amazing results by using your existing furnishings in new and creative ways! We may suggest that you purchase a few new decor items, but our goal is to keep your out-of-pocket expenses to a minimum. (NOTE: we don’t do heavy lifting or cleaning)

 

Photos for the RMLS - USING UPDATED TECHNOLOGY

Our Photo Service includes use of a quality camera with a wide-angle lens and enhanced photo-processing with HDR software to produce dramatic and compelling photos, in line with current industry standards. We have been staging from the perspective of the camera’s eye for over a decade and the photos that we provide for the RMLS enhance your home and give you a powerful edge over the competition. 

 

 

Testimonials
Leslie Stoner, Property Owner/Manager

“Janis has worked her magic many times for me. In 2010, my husband and I downsized our home. It was a terrible time to sell; even so we gave it a try. Our realtor wisely suggested we call Janis for a consultation. Janis’ careful assessment of our home yielded a comprehensive list of things to do, most of which we did ourselves. Her photos were exceptional and consequently, within 48 hours, we were accepting a full price offer. Soon afterwards, I called on her expertise to assess our new home. She guided us in using the furniture, art and accessories we chose to keep, blending them beautifully into our smaller place. More recently, I have consulted with her regarding our rentals. Prospective tenants increasingly rely on internet postings to search for a new home. An empty apartment, no matter how upscale, looks flat in a photo and it’s impossible to gauge how furniture will work in the space. Janis guided me in purchasing some staging furnishings/decor, and placed things in a way that’s warm, stylish and welcoming. The sophisticated camera equipment she uses provides wide angle photos that take in the whole space. Her photos truly show the size and scale of each place and how beautiful they look furnished. We’ve had a significant increase in inquiries from potential tenants. Invariably, they say the places look in person just like they do online. This is crucial to finding good prospective tenants who are happy with what they find when they arrive. Janis, thank you for making my job easier.”

Bobby Stevens Broker, Windermere Real Estate Vacant Staging for his personal property – 2016

“This spring I hired Janis to stage a condo for a listing client. We had a tight time frame to get it on the market and Janis moved very quickly to put beautiful staging in place for this vacant home. The owners were impressed, and so were the buyers – we received an offer in just a few days.” “Naturally when I decided to list my personal home, I called Janis again. This time the challenge was considerable – we have a large vintage home with a diverse color palette, so Janis went above and beyond, sourcing furniture and decor items to create a designer look for our vacant home. The staging is beautiful, but I was also very impressed with the photos Janis took after she and her crew finished. Her wide angle lens and editing skills created images that I’m proud to use in marketing my own home!”
