I love people and I love homes!   Having personally bought, fixed up and sold several homes, I understand the excitement and trauma that goes into this process.  There are emotions running high on all sides, and realtors & home stagers both need to be understanding and sensitive, while getting the work done.  My experience in the medical and education fields has given me the ability to work well with people from all walks of life.  My love for decorating and training in design has prepared me to be a successful home stager & redesigner.  I love helping people love their homes & grow their equity - whether they're buying, selling, or staying.

Everyone deserves to have a beautiful space to call their own - to nurture & inspire their soul.  I care about my clients and their homes - I even tend to dream about the current homes I'm working on and feel like they become a part of me, as I leave my impression on them.

Being a bargain hunter, I specialize in making a home lovely at a very reasonable cost.  Home staging and redesign are investments into the future, and it is important to use wisdom in investing in those areas that will increase the selling price for sellers and to make the home more enjoyable to live in for home owners and renters.

On the market vacant for six months - sold ONE WEEK after staging!

Realtors, make your life easier by automatically including a  consultation or half-day of staging in your listings.  You will be freed up to do what you do best, sellers will benefit from it (which benefits you), and your reputation will grow (be sure to advertise that you include this service - sellers are noticing!).  We will perform the difficult task of showing them exactly what needs to be done and help them accomplish it.

You will stand out from the pack and your homes will look better, resulting in faster sales.  In a market where there is so much to choose from, make your homes & your service stand out!

Here is more information for you and your sellers:

Q.  How do you sell a home quickly and for the best price?     

A.  You make it look GREAT!   This quick video shows the benefits of staging.  Who wouldn't want to live in this beautiful home staged by Home Staging Designs of California?  http://www.realestateshows.com/280242

Q.  Does Home Staging really work?    

A.  Yes.  Staged homes on average sell, on average, in half the time at an average of 5-10% higher sales price (2004 Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage).

We would all pay more for a car that is detailed inside and out than for one that the owners cared so little about that they didn't take care of it.  Retail companies spend millions to make their products look most appealing.  There is no difference when your "product" is a house.  Those that look better and are well-prepared will go first and for the highest price!

 Q.  Does Home Staging pay for itself?

A.  The 2007 Home Gain Survey reports over a 300% average return on your investment!  Few things in life can touch those statistics.

Beth,

Thank you sooo much for your help yesterday.  I'm feeling like we're making progress!  I love the changes!  It was so cute when my son got home yesterday.  At 10, I didn't even expect him to notice.  The minute he walked in he said "wow".  That's a great compliment to you :)!  My husband even said later that evening that he really liked it. You certainly have an eye for making an ordinary house far more appealing. I am amazed that simply rearranging furniture, eliminating clutter and adding a few small accent pieces would make such a difference.  I feel like we are on our way to creating the "Aaah" effect!  I look forward to our next meeting.
