Series -- Post 5 of 7 -- Our Unique Selling Proposition (USP) -- Staging Transformation of an Westlake Ohio Home
The first post in this series focused on performing an extreme makover by performing major renovation, redesign and home staging of a home in Cleveland Heights Ohio that we did for a seller client in both a cost-effective manner and quick turn-around time frame.
The second post in this series focused on home staging a Twinsburg, Ohio home on a shoestring budget. This seller said the total they had to invest in preparing their home for sale was $1,000. The actual total was $500 and was primarily spent on obtaining a POD filled to the brim and stored off-site.
The third post in this series focused on another extreme makeover of an architecturally significant home in Shaker Heights Ohio. This stately home on one of Shaker's finest streets was on the market previously for six months with another top Realtor affiliated with a large real estate brokerage. The owner approached us and asked for a second opinion on why this home hadn't sold, nor had any offers in the previous six months. After touring the home, it quickly became apparent that there were many issues to address.
The fourth post in this series focused on minimizing the negative effects of selling a vacant University Heights, Ohio home and also bringing some very tired, dated and worn elements up to date in a cost-effective manner.

This fifith post will focus on how to showcase a partially updated by using innovative home staging techniques as well as uncovering hidden gems in a home.
I helped these sellers purchase this home a few years earlier. This home had some major recent updates:
- The kitchen was partially remodeled,
- The basement was finished,
- New paint had been added to some rooms, and
- A new fence in the backyard.
However, this home still had some vesitiges of the 1960s including:
- Dated wall to wall carpeting covering beautiful hardwood floors. We removed the carpeting to showcase the beautiful hardwood floors,
- De-cluttered the rooms,
- A bit more painting of a few rooms,
- Rearranged the furniture around focal points,
- Added accessories, and
- Modified window treatments.
The result was a showcase home!
