Areas of Expertise

Why choose ‘Stage with Divine Style’ to Stage your home?

Anybody can Stage a home. When we Stage a home it is much more then arranging furniture and hanging some nice pictures.

At ‘Stage with Divine Style’ we work hard to capture the essence of the home. In doing so we take into consideration the homes location, style of the home and the potential buyer.  We also use the natural color scheme, patterns, and lighting of the home.

Then with a little hard work, imagination and a lot of creativity the home is transformed into an elegant work of art with maximum buyers appeal. That’s the ‘Staged with Divine Style’ way!

Whether a home is occupied or vacant, statistics have shown Staged Homes sell for more money in fewer amounts of time then Non Staged Homes.

At “Stage with Divine Style” we have several Staging options to choose from such as:

Full Home Staging
- We design and furnish your entire vacant home.
Partial Home Staging- We design and furnish only the key area's of your home.
Occupied Home Staging- We come into your furnished home and re-design it to sell.
&
Detailed Evaluation Reports- We fully inspect your home and prepare a 20+ page report with recommendations of how to rearrange your home to maximize buyers appeal.

This report addresses everything from the front curb to the back 40. Once you have completed all of our recommendations on the Detailed Evaluation Report, we will re-inspect your home for free to ensure your home is Staged® to its full potential! This report is a must for anyone who’s selling a home.

Our In Home Estimates are “Free” and we provide you with at least 3 different Staging options to choose from. Most importantly we will work with Your Budget.

Testimonials

"Here's what Realtor's and Homeowners are saying about Linda and her Service"

 

 

I hired Linda Pufford of Organize with Divine Style to Stage my home for sale.  As a Real Estate Agent and Homeowner I recognized the value of staging a home for sale, to set it above the competition.  Creating a welcoming environment that would captivate any buyer, so they could see themselves just moving right in.

 

She and her team began transforming my home room by room into a very beautiful space.  I really appreciated her attention to every detail from start to finish.  Nothing was over looked and when it was all finished I could not believe the transformation that took place.  I even had second thoughts about selling.

 

Linda was very accessible and easy to work with.  I know she had my best interest at heart.  After the work began I recognized that not only was I pleased with her staging to sale which I hired her for, but I will also be using her services for the move into my new home as well.  She had great ideas from paint color to the detail of her accessories.  I would recommend her to anyone who needs that extra special touch of creativity, expertise and professionalism to re-create an amazing look in any home.

 

Thank you, Chrystal Rauschkolb – Real Estate Agent/Homeowner

Dear Linda,

 

Thank you so much for working with me on the Staging of my Steiner Street listing in San Francisco.  I really appreciate your thoughtful suggestions and insight into the best ways to highlight the beautiful architecture of that turn-of-the-century Edwardian home.

 

The use of Vignette Staging was such a good choice for this vacant home because it put emphasis on the open, spacious rooms and the special period details. In addition it created warmth and a spark of inspiration as to what could be achieved when a buyer completed his own decorating.

 

During our Broker’s Open House I received many compliments on how well the house showed.  So I’m passing them on to you with sincere appreciation for your help.  I wish you much success in the future with your Staging Business and know that whenever a Realtor chooses you to stage a property, he or she will be most pleased with the results.

 

Sincerely, Sharon Brighenti – ASP Realtor - RE/MAX of Southern Marin

Hi Linda,

 

Thank you so much for all your efforts on my Verissimo listing.  You guys did a great job.  I’m especially impressed with your attitude.  You handled the situation with perfection.  What a difference on the house.  I love seeing it on the StagedHomes.com website, too.

 

I look forward to working with you in the future and I hope it is soon.

 

Best Regards, Colleen Cornell – Realtor - Bradley Real Estate

Linda

I just want to tell you how much I appreciated the Staging job you did for my listing.  The vacant home looked so good after it was fully Staged, you did a beautiful job. I got many compliments and was happy to hand out many of your cards.

 
When I took over this listing it had previously been on the market for six months with not one offer.  I knew I had to change the way I marketed the home if it was going to sell.  So that’s why you were called in.  I was so thrilled when the day after your Staging, which was our first open house we got two offers and from those offers one was the buyer of the home.

It sure proves Staging works.  I can’t wait to work with you again.  We make a great team!

Thank you, Larry Ray – Real Estate Broker – Ray Reality

Linda,


I wanted to let you know how much I appreciated your style of working when we had our first meeting last week.  Many people would have come in and focused only on the “problems” that needed to be fixed.  Although that is necessary it was delightful to have you be so verbal about all the benefits you saw in my home.  I think anyone who is getting their house ready to put on the market feels a little “raw” and so your uplifting attitude was most welcome.

 

Thank you, Georgia Tripp – Homeowner

 

Staging Testimony

It is my great honor to recommend Linda Pufford for the Barb Schwarz Staging Excellence Award.

Linda has been my dear friend since our children were in grade school together several years ago.  She has always displayed a contagious enthusiasm for life in general and in particular for her passion of home staging.  I have witnessed her brilliant and creative ideas staging a variety of homes, from a sophisticated, renovated, San Francisco Edwardian home to a small country cottage in Sebastopol.

Every house presents it's own challenges, and Linda is always equal to the task, with a natural, God-given talent to see the possibilities in a home and how to bring out its true potential.  Each house Linda stages is its own unique expression of beauty.  Linda chooses furniture and accessories that compliment the type of home and its setting.  Her work is never formulaic.  Instead it always refreshes the visitor with an apparently effortless continuity of style and color, accented with special, eye catching detail.

As a Realtor marketing a property, I know the importance of a favorable emotional response to a home.  With staging, Linda somehow produces a home that exudes a peaceful harmony combined with a fresh energy.  She has the ability to eleminate the negative aspects of a house and make it appealing to the greatest segments of buyers.

On a personal note, I have never worked with anyone more cooperative and receptive to ideas than Linda.  Despite her high level of competence and excellence of training, she always acts with true humility and graciousness.  She approaches every project with a positive attitude, a sweet smile, and boundless energy.  Linda woulod definitely be my first choice to stage any of my listings.

I am privileged to know Linda both professionally and personally.

Sincerely,

Sharon Brighenti
