Home Staging in Granada Hills, California

Home staging helps sell homes in Granada Hills

Moving Mountains Design was recently hired to stage a home in Granada Hills, CA. The home is a great family home with generously sized rooms, a huge back yard and a newer kitchen. As the home is located in a large tract with several homes for sale, the homeowner decided to have the home staged in order to increase the chances of a faster sale. The homeowner completed a number of suggested updates (new chandelier in the dining room, new lighting in the bathrooms, etc.) and had the house painted with our suggested color choices. We used some of the homeowners existing furniture and augmented it with rented furniture, Persian rugs and our inventory of lamps, artwork and accessories.

20 Comments on Home Staging in Granada Hills, California

Michelle - Your work is always exceptional. My new favorite color combination is the "persimmon" and green combo that you used. I think it looks very sophisticated.

Beautiful as always, Michelle! And great paint colors, subtle and not over-done, yet adds a very elegant touch to each room. Love it!

Lynn: You've discovered my secret. I love mossy green and persimmon for staging. The combination is warm, fresh and lively. Thanks for your kind words.

Connie: Thank you so much. Its always great when the homeowner and REA listen to what we have to say and follow through. This was a great combination of a very motivated seller and a wonderfully supportive listing agent.

Michelle, great job!  Unbelievable difference!

05/10/2008 06:49 PM by Tony & Darcy Cannon - The C Team (ERA Realty Center)


Michelle- You've managed to add a pop of color and yet retain that soft comfy look! Very nice! I love the stories where everyone gets behind the staging!

05/10/2008 06:52 PM by Elaine Manes IRIS~Colorado Stager ~ A Wonderful Space, LLC (A Wonderful Space, LLC)


Tony & Darcy: Thank you. I'm glad you like it. It is a somewhat modest home, so we tried to add some sparkle.

Amy: Thank you. Everyone is happy with the outcome.

Elaine: Unfortunately the stories where everyone gets behind the staging are still somewhat rare. Once we stage, then everyone likes what we do. But sometimes getting everyone to agree and sign on is  the hard part. Our goal was to help update the home with color, new fixtures and furniture. The house has new hardwood floors which we wanted to take advantage of. Thank you.

Oh Michelle, you just keep adding more and more wonderful work to your portfollio. Your work is simply lucious, my friend, it flows!

Michelle, Beautiful. I love the colours and the splash of orange. You did a great job.

Gee, thank you, Yvonne. I'm blushing.

Kimberley: Thank you. I appreciate your praise.

Wow again. So glad that these homeowners listened to you. What a difference in the living room.... so "in" for Granada Hills. I hope it sells quickly for you ;)

05/10/2008 11:06 PM by Lori Kim Polk, Sacramento Area Home Staging (Artful Journey Designs and Staging)


Really fabulous!  Some of these photos you can hardly tell it is the same home.... My favorite transformation is the dining room... the angle is really fabulous for marketing as well....

05/10/2008 11:14 PM by Melissa Marro www.StagingAndRedesign.com www.RedesigningCharleston.com (First Impressions)


Michelle,

Gorgeous as usual. What you got rid of is just as important as what you brought in i.e. white walls, vertical blinds and a lack luster light fixture.

05/10/2008 11:25 PM by Susan Peters - Seattle Realtor/Staging Specialist (Re/Max Mutual Realty)


Lynn nailed it with her comments that your work is exceptional!

This transformation is absolutely incredible.

Congratulations.  Your post is being featured in the group Staging Before & After Pictures.

Michelle, I love your work. I love how you carried the same colors through out the home.

05/11/2008 11:40 AM by Tanya Venable, Anderson, SC/Spartanburg/ Greenville, SC/ Home Staging (Fresh Eye Designs)


Lori Kim: Thank you, I hope so also.

Melissa: They used my photos in the MLS and for marketing. Thanks!

Susan: Those vertical blinds were in every room. Sadly, the homeowner had just recently purchased them. We removed them because they really dated the house.

Kathy: Projects like this are really fun because the transformation is so tremendous. Thank you.

Tanya: When I get to pick the paint colors, carrying the same palette through the house is easy. It is a little more tricky when the house has already been painted before we are called in. Thanks.

Michelle - It's so nice when you can suggest an update that will help sell the home and they agree.  Haven't had the pleasure yet.

Thanks for your posts!

These are beautiful before and after pictures. I really like what you did with the living room. Huge difference.

05/16/2008 10:53 AM by Cindy Bryant~Houston's Home Staging & Home Stagers By Redesign Etc.~RESA~ASHSR (Redesign Etc., Inc.-Texas)


Everything looks so bright.  Once again you've done another great job!

05/16/2008 02:42 PM by Michelle Hall (Century 21 Hecht)


Hi Diane: Its always nice to have clients listen to you. I think they were happy they did. Thanks.

Cindy: Thank you. You should have seen the before the before pictures (before the client did the decluttering I suggested) It would make your head spin.

Thank you very much Michelle.
