Testimonials

I'm very happy and satisfied that I chose Arranged Smartly to stage my house for sale. Cathy Brosius was very friendly and professional, but most importantly, her design ideas brought out the special features of my otherwise plain home. She suggested fresh, contemporary paint colors for many of the rooms. All the furniture and accents she chose were perfectly suited for my home, and I genuinely feel that without her staging, my home would've continued to sit on the market for a long time without any offers. The staging fee was affordable and worth every penny! 

--Catherine Lucy, St. Louis, MO

Since I began using Cathy's services as part of my marketing plan for sellers, I have had tremendous success in selling my listings very quickly--all within 30 days and some even within the first week on the market. Cathy is very professional and quickly develops a good rapport with my clients. She offers them very practical advice regarding what they need to do to stage their home so that it outshines the competition. What my clients seem to like the most is that Cathy can help them work with what they have, rather than spend money on furniture and/or accessories. Their biggest expense may be paint. If so, Cathy helps them choose a color that will appeal to the widest pool of buyers and also present well in the pictures that are posted on the MLS and other web sites.  Cathy's services are an integral part of my marketing plan.

--Kathy Koutsobinas, Marketing Specialist, Coldwell Banker Gundaker, St. Charles, MO

Cathy was a gem to work with. She came to my house for an hour and gave me some simple, but important suggestions to make my home more appealing to buyers. I am certainly not a decorator-type, but Cathy's suggestions were easy for me to understand. I made one trip to Michael's Craft Store, moved some furniture around as Cathy had suggested, and voila!!, my house sold in 2 days!!!! It was simply amazing. I would recommend Cathy to anyone trying to sell a home or wanting to brighten up an existing home.

--Sandy Clark, St. Peters, MO

With over 25 years of experience in St. Louis home sales, I felt pretty knowledgeable about preparing a home for sale. Then I met Cathy Brosius of Arranged Smartly and she took it to a different level. Where I may have been too direct with my Sellers, Cathy "suggests" changes to the home in a way that the Seller understands and readily accepts. With her special training and keen eye for detail, she has made a big difference in my success with sellers BEFORE the listing. This has translated into homes showing much better from the beginning which means faster sales.
