Arbutus Walk Home Staging - Vancouver - Before & After

Sometimes life just gets in the way.  This busy couple were run off their feet with their jobs, and a young child.  They had outgrown this lovely townhouse in a fantastic neighbourhood, and were ready to sell and move on to a larger property.

Vancouver Home Staging - Before & After PhotosKnowing that presentation is everything when selling your home, this couple called in Exit Stage Right, home staging, to transform their home into a desirable house that buyers would be anxious to purchase. 

A half day was spent packing up excess items, and storing boxes and some furniture into an off-site storage unit.  Cleaners were hired, as well as carpet cleaners, to make sure every corner gleamed and shined.  Buyers want Q-tip clean homes. 

Vancouver Home Staging - Before & After PhotosOur Vancouver home staging company, Exit Stage Right, then came in with bedding, accessories and artwork, and worked our magic.  We wanted to present a contemporary, colourful, inviting home that would appeal to a young, urban couple, or someone downsizing. 

This townhouse sold in 4 days, at $21,000 above asking price!  Staging works!

Sally love what you accomplished with this place.  All of the black and white is so upscale, then add the pops of orange and WOW.  Great work!

Cathy Lee - That's a true compliment, isn't it, when the owner loves the staging so much that they want to stay?  In this case, they'd already bought a house, so they needed to sell their existing townhouse asap!  No pressure...

Ginger - Thanks!  Actually, the funny thing is, this is about the 3rd property in a row where I've been faced with a yellow sofa - what's with that?!!!  It all came together in the end, though, with a happy ending all around.

Kathy - Thank you so much for the big, gold star, and the feature!  It's amazing how many properties lack art on the wall, and yet it makes such a difference. 

Tim - Everything just came together so nicely on this staging job - it was one of those win-win-win situations.  Thanks so much!

HI Sally, when I saw the after photos I actually made that noise I make when I really like something. No sound here so you will have to use your imagination. That is the first time for that to happen looking at something on AR. Congrats on getting the reaction you were looking for with your staging work.

Gorgeous - I love the black and white chairs and the portraits of poppies always give a home that dazzling hit of red.  Fantastic job!

Sally, you did an EXCELLENT job as always!  That yellow couch looked so out of place in the before photo, but WOW, did you ever make it belong with your artwork and accessories.  I love that yellow & red colour combination you chose.  You are one very talented lady my friend :-)

Charlene - Hey, I was just thinking about you - we just got back from Vegas (again!), stayed at the Cosmopolitan, and had drinks at the Chandelier Bar, which I remember you telling me about - how cool is that?  What is it with yellow sofas?  I keep coming across them!

Judy - I have to say that simply removing the excess furniture and "stuff" really made a huge difference.  The addition of artwork and accessories was the emotional icing on the cake. 

Carla - Really appreciate your feedback.  I know, I love before & after photos too - it's like a Cinderella story each and every time!
