Just Staged in Newport Coast, CA

This is an excellent example of Showhomes' staging. Beth George and her team in California are some of the best in the business!

Via Thomas Scott - Showhomes:

Beth George, owner of Showhomes LA just emailed me these pics of a newly staged $2.5 million dollar home they recently contracted in Newport Coast, CA:

Beth and her crew, Laura Fisher, Faris George and Craig Brown, have been doing a great job producing sales with staging in a truly slow market. Anyone who works in real estate in Southern CA knows what a challenging business it is these days. High quality product like this makes all the difference!

I especially like the vintage dresser in the otherwise modern bedroom. I think adding more personalized pieces like that makes the home look 'less staged' and that usually makes a difference in how 'sticky' the home is. Using real live plants throughout really adds lots of life to the home, too.

What do you think?

Thomas Scott, Showhomes
