FAQ’s
-
What’s the difference between staging and decorating?
Staging focuses on neutralizing and depersonalizing the space to appeal to a broad range of buyers, while decorating reflects the homeowner's personal taste. Staging helps buyers visualize themselves living there.
-
Does staging really make a difference in how quickly a home sells?
According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), 81% of buyers find it easier to visualize a property as their future home when it’s staged, and staged homes sell 88% faster and for 20% more than non-staged homes on average.
-
Is staging necessary if my home is already beautifully furnished?
Even well-decorated homes can benefit from staging to ensure the space appeals to buyers rather than reflecting the homeowner’s personal style. It’s about creating a neutral, buyer-friendly environment.
-
How does the home staging process work?
It all begins with a pre-listing consultation, where I walk through your home and provide expert recommendations on furniture placement, decluttering, paint colors, and decor. For occupied homes, I can assist with hands-on staging using your existing items. For vacant homes, my team and I will provide rental furniture and accessories to create a warm and inviting space.
-
Do I need to rent furniture for staging?
If your home is occupied, the aim is to use what you already have, supplemented with accessories if needed. For vacant properties, rental furniture is essential to help buyers connect emotionally with the space.
-
Will staging make my home feel like a showroom, less homey?
Staging doesn’t mean stripping away personality—it’s about creating a warm, inviting space that appeals to buyers while still feeling livable. The goal is to help buyers emotionally connect with the home, not make it look cold or generic.
