There are three phases to the home staging or redesign process to completely maximize the value of the home. Evansville Home Staging & ReDesign can do all three…Do one…or all three.  During our consultation with you we will plan out your options for you. By understanding the different phases, you’ll be able to better understand the “staging potential” or “redesign potential” of the home. We keep it simple and break up your processes, so that you don’t get bogged down.

PHASE ONE - Using What The Client Has To Transform the Space
This is basically our time and expertise which is the most valuable thing a home seller can incorporate in preparing their home to sell.  Why?  Because it involves zero budget outside of a Staging Day or two, but creates big rewards in the resell based on our ability to creatively and objectively decorate the home sell.

PHASE TWO – Recommended Purchases As Investments In Staging Process
Working with the client’s budget, we will only make those recommended purchases that will MORE than pay for themselves in the speed and amount of sale.  We will work with the home seller or home owner (in redesign) and find those perfect, inexpensive accessories that will have a dramatic impact on each room of the home.

PHRASE THREE - Simple Yet Dramatic Cosmetic Updates and Changes!
Some rooms just need paint, while others need updated lighting etc.  Depending on the client’s budget and timing, we will only suggest paint, electrical and other cosmetic improvements that will result in a higher return on investment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need a Home Stager? Is probably the most frequently asked question.  Most homeowners are very attached and proud of their home.  Therefore have a hard time seeing it through buyer eyes.  Buyers are picking out every flaw and knocking that off their offer- if they even put one in.   A professional stager can help you let go emotionally and see the big picture of selling your home and netting a bigger profit.

Can I stage my home myself? Many realtors and homeowners try to stage their home themselves and most miss the mark.  Home Staging professionals are experienced in creating the right mood for the home to sell.  Home Staging professionals know where they can just fluff it up and when a more extensive approach is necessary.  Expertise Sells!

How much will it cost? All depends on the size and condition your home is in.  Also, whether it is vacant or you have furniture to work with.  To stage a home properly you will need current and neutral accessories, furniture appropriately scaled to the rooms, and a clean odorless home.  Clean and organized homes sell!

Why do I need staged pictures? If nothing else you need pictures of your home that are perfect.  The internet/ multiple listing sites are a very useful tool for buyers to preview a home before they see it in person.  It truly is your homes first impression.  If you have a room with no clear purpose and your home is cluttered it’s a turn off and at the very least it brings in a lower priced offer.  Staged pictures bring traffic to your home and higher priced offers to the table.

How long will it take? Most homes take about 4-8 hours to fully stage.  Homes need to be cleaned and organized before staging can take place to get the full impact and your moneys worth of staging.  You don’t want to pay for cleaning when you can do it for free. You can use my service for the de-clutter and organize, adding on additional time to accomplish this is going to vary by the size of the home and the amount of clutter.

Here is what some of my clients have to say:

 "Brenda Hughes worked with me on a home project for a client that was in real need of help in getting their home sold. They were on a very tight budget, and I have to tell you that I was skeptical at first as to what could be done. Brenda came in and knocked it out of the ball park. She was able to refurbish some pieces and the staging was absolutely breath taking. Prior to staging being completed the home sat on the market for over a year. After Brenda was done ( which didn't take much time at all ) the home sold in 2 weeks. I would like to let everyone know that if you need home staging or you are just tired of the same thing day in and day out or just want to redo your home, Brenda Hughes is the one to contact. She really listens to her clients needs and wants. She will not let you down. Thank you Brenda." Lori Evansville, IN

 “Brenda analysis her customers needs in a quiet manner studying the colors, design and placement of furniture in various rooms and suggests best ways for the customer to enhance the appearance of his or her home without going to a great deal of expense or simply using what the client has on hand. New ideas are refreshing whether you are staying in your present home or displaying the home to the best advantage to sell. I recommend her service and expertise to anyone. Mary Anderson” 

 “Brenda has been exceptional in providing excellent tips and services for helping stage several homes for customers of mine who are trying to not only sell their homes but receive top dollar for them as well. Brenda is great at what she does and has a real passion for it as well. I would recommend her to anyone who might be interested on how they can make their home a better place to live and reach its full potential. Mike Reeder with FC Tucker Emge Realtors”

 

 “Brenda is very personable and likes to get to know her clients in order to meet their needs. It's the time that she takes to get to know each client and their specific need that ensure's her success in the staging process. She also does and has lots of ideas for landscaping that can help with that curb appeal. Brenda's focus on her clients best interest make her the Elite Staging Professional in the Evansville area. And her rates will surprise you! You get a lot for very little cost. Call her today!”

 Tricia Mischler

 "Brenda is FANTASTIC at staging homes. When I have recommended her services to my clients, the homes that she has staged have been perfect and ready to be shown. The last home that Brenda staged for me, I had another realtor compliment the home and say that it was beautiful and that he wished he had 10 listings that looked as good as the home that Brenda staged. This is a home in which she staged over 2000 sq. ft. to help sell! I would recommend Brenda to anyone looking to sell their home or any realtor to recommend to their clients. She does great work, is extremely professional, and my clients have been more than satisfied! I will continue recommending Brenda because her work is truly an art in itself!”

"Jim and I wanted to Thank You for helping us focus our efforts so that we could have our home staged and ready to sell before listing it with an agent. We followed your instructions on our DIY report exactly   . We had an   offer for 9   8.5% of the asking price within 10 days of listing our home and in this buyers market that is truly amazing! Thanks to your guidance and a little elbow grease, paint and some time we got more for our home and were able to sell it faster than most." Susan B., Evansville, IN

 

 

 

"Thanks so much for you help in getting our home ready to put on the market. It was amazing how you could see exactly how to arrange our furniture and accessories and what we needed to get to make it extra special. I could not vision this, but I've learned a lot through you. I'm glad our Realtor recommended you to us." Jeannie F., Darmstadt, IN~ 

 

 

"With the market being in favor of the buyer these days, I knew I had to do everything possible to make my house marketable.  I called my Realtor to see who he suggested I call and he recommended Brenda at Evansville Home Staging & Re-Design. Brenda's knowledge and willingness to dive right in and make it happen on that first visit made it happen for me.  She helped me give the house the uplift it needed, by rearranging furniture and adding a few needed accessories she gave everything the right focus without the expense.  My house was on the market for 17 days when I had a contract, very near my asking price (I also had several full price offers), we were closed and I turned over the keys in less than 30 days.  Thank you Brenda,"  Carol G., Evansville, IN

“Brenda came into my home office and in less than one hour created space and much needed change in my treatment/spa room. She didn't just talk about the changes, she got to work and made it happen immediately. She worked with my furniture, just suggested some updated accessories.

She also hauled away the clutter for me which was an added bonus! 

In completion of the project she offered to shop for the some needed accessories which saves me valuable time and enhances the decor.  

My space is now much more professional and I feel confident that my clients will feel more comfortable. I am still in awe and thrilled with the results. 

Thank you Brenda!!” Bonnie S., Evansville, IN

“Brenda recently staged a home that I had listed for sale. It sold within 2 weeks of the staging, after being on the market for almost a year. She absolutely transformed the look of the home from unattractive to warm and inviting. She worked with my clients low budget and staged things friends donated to stage the house and the results were amazing. I am convinced that her staging is responsible for getting the job done. Thanks, Brenda!” Jane
