Pre-Sale Home Staging
First impressions matter. Our concierge pre-sale home staging service transforms your property into its most market-ready state. Our team handles every detail, from decluttering and arranging furniture to adding tasteful décor and lighting, to highlight your home’s best features and create an inviting atmosphere that appeals to discerning buyers.
A thoughtfully staged home photographs better, attracts more attention, and helps potential buyers emotionally connect with the space, often leading to faster sales and higher offers. Concierge pre-home staging ensures your property stands out and sells quickly at its fullest potential.
Staging your home can bring both about a 5-25% higher asking price as well as a faster sale. Our team can work with you if you need to live in their home while it is being actively listed and available for showings using your furniture, artwork, and decor. A prospective buyer is able to see the full view of each room which can be the difference in choosing your home over another. When a move date is secured, we return to finish packing your home while you get ready to move into your new home. A higher sale price can actually pay for our services as well as leave you with more money in your pocket.
Packing of All Personal Items – An important aspect of staging a home for photos and videos for listing is the removal of most of those personal items, such as family photos, religious items, and special art work. We carefully pack these items away for your transition.
Streamlining – Our team will collaborate with you to determine the items that you need in your home during this time. Once the streamlining is accomplished, we organize your remaining items to maximize the potential of each room.
Donations and Recycling – Once we decide on what items are no longer needed, we will remove all of these items, reducing the time and stress involved with this process. Additionally, we can provide receipts and documentation for tax purposes, as needed.
Priority Packing for Long Term Storage – If you may have a longer transition before moving into your new home, we will pack your items with long-term storage in mind. Our team will help you decide which items may need to be accessed during this time and make sure they are properly labeled closer to the storage unit entrance.
Organizing – As part of the staging process, we can incorporate organization items that will be used in your new home which would sometimes include slimline hangers, drawer dividers, and pantry options. Sample your new organized lifestyle that you can enjoy once we move you completely into your new home!
Why invest in professional pre-sale staging?
Professional staging helps your property make a strong first impression online and in person, by showcasing its best features, optimizing flow and lighting, and creating an inviting ambiance that allows buyers to envision themselves living there. Research shows that staged homes spend less time on the market and often achieve higher offers.
When is the best time to stage my home, and what’s involved in the process?
The ideal time to stage is before your home hits the market. This way you capture high-quality marketing photos and draw maximum interest early. The process usually begins with a consultation, followed by preparation (decluttering, repair touch-ups, light décor changes), and installation of furniture and accessories, as needed.
Do I need to stage every room, and how much does it cost?
You don’t necessarily have to stage every room. Focusing on key areas like the entry, living room, kitchen, and master bedroom often delivers the best return. Costs vary widely depending on home size, furnishing needs, and market, but budgeting for staging a few high-impact rooms is often cost-effective.
