Drum Roll Please- the begining --- the hot tub

By
Home Stager with Stage-Show-Sell

Stage-Show-Sell has orchestrated another Estate.  The dad has passed away and mom is in a nursing home.  All their adult children live out of state so ................who's    around to handle the house but SSS?

This is our specialty........taking the stress off of the family.  Can they take time off of work for a month?  Leave the family behind to work on the family home?

Their time is better spent taking care of mom

Both parents were sick for many years and the house was neglected.

I take these challenges to heart and jump into them with both feet.  This project has so many issues that I or the family didn't see right off so the project took almost three months from organizing for the estate sale to the listing with a realtor.

For me staging is the final step in the process of the total Orchestration.

We did the Estate Sale to sell the items the family need want or need and the process began.

Converting this room was fun.

I LOVED changing the color of the wood to make the room look so much bigger.

Great transformation.  The place looks much more inviting.  I wouldn't have given it a second look in its previous shape and now I want to jump right in that hot tub!  Way to go!!

Kathy,   I'm honored to be featured on this room. 

The family has been sent photos of all the rooms and the MLS ticket.  They can hardly believe it's the same house.

That pleases me!!!!!!!!!!!

This type of transformation is the reason to have a "before and after picture" group. Simply amazing!

Oh. My.

Virginia, from the looks of the first photograph (and knowing that it was probably worse in person) I admire you for not just standing there, paralyzed. Amazing transformation. Yes of course the paint did a major job, but the whole job is such a contrast from the original photos. I'm sure the family is certain that they made a wise investment in hiring you!

Virginia,

I'd love to hear more all of the services you offer.  It sounds like you have expanded way beyond typical staging services.   How about writing up a blog about it?
