Not All REALTOR®s Stage Their Listings – But I Do!!

Most of you know by now I stage every single one of my listings! If you don’t know (now you do!), I include this service as part of my listing agreement fees.

Since this isn’t a service all REALTOR®s offer, I thought I’d answer a few common questions that get asked by my prospective sellers.

1. What’s included?

I always provide a full, hands-on staging consult on occupied homes. We go room by room and I make recommendations on what to keep, what to pack away, where we need to add, and move any furniture, if necessary. Sometimes I’ll repurpose a room for a different use because the way we sell our homes is much different than the way we live in them.

2. Who will be doing the staging?

I’m always the lead on every staging job. I personally pre-plan all accessories and artwork required for your home prior to showing up for the staging day. I’m also the one doing the hanging of art, placing accessories, and I usually bring a second set of eyes and muscles with me (aka one of my two business partners, Shawn Nichols or Erika Blair if she’s in town!) to support where needed!

3. Are there any extra costs?

There are zero costs associated with any art or accessory rentals I provide. This is all included in your listing agreement fees! Sometimes, an additional piece of larger furniture may need to be supplemented, and there would be a fee with this as I source it from a 3rd party. But I always do what I can to use what you already have in your home!

4. Where does your inventory come from?

Over the years, I have built up an extensive library of artwork and accessories solely used for staging listings. Of course, everything is always sanitized and cleaned before going to a new home.

I’m not just a REALTOR® with a natural ability to provide decorating guidance, I also have credentials and training as a Professional Home Stager. I have a strong educational background in both home staging and architectural design, along with over 15 years of experience working in those trades!

Here’s a link to view a small sample of my staging jobs over the years. I’d love to assist you with making your home look its absolute best before coming to market to help you get top dollar!
