Testimonial sampling
Linda, I wanted to thank you and your crew of professionals for doing such an outstanding job of staging my home. I am proud to list it and look forward to a quick sell at top dollar." Dave G., Re/Max
"Dear Linda, Thank you for the beautiful work you did on staging my home. You have inspired me to do more, with less. Best regards" Libby D., Indianapolis
"Dear Linda, I've been trying to find time to email you and thank you but I've been too busy packing. After your visit I spent a few days following through on all of your great suggestions and getting the house ready to go on the market. We put our home on the market on 7/2 and received a full price offer on 7/17. The second couple to view the home made the offer two days after viewing it. I am a firm believer in home staging! It works!" Kandace T., Indianapolis
"Karl and I wanted to Thank You for helping us focus our efforts so that we could have our home staged and ready to sell before listing it with an agent. We followed your instructions to the letter. We had an offer for 98% of the asking price within 11 days of listing our home and in this buyers market that is truly amazing! Thanks for your guidance and with a little elbow grease, paint and some time we got more for our home and were able to sell it faster than most." Sue Ann B., Greenwood
"It was a pleasure to work with you and I want to bring you up to date on our success. Just a few weeks ago our condo went into MLS. That was on a Thursday late afternoon. In the next 2 days, Friday & Saturday, we had 9 showings and by the end of the day on Saturday, we had three offers, two for full price, cash. We close later today.I just wanted you to know what a nice job." Susan P., Indianapolis
"Both homes worked out beautifully for myself and the client. I have given your name out a couple of times and we'll be able to work together again in the future." Ann G., Century 21 Indianapolis
"I have used Linda repeatedly for her services with home staging. I get so many people that want to sell their homes but really have no idea where to start. Linda has done a great job with my sellers making them feel comfortable while telling them the hard truth. It makes my job much easier." Cathy T., Keller Williams Indianapolis
"My home was on the market since 8/06 and even after dropping the price 2 times it still had not sold. I contacted Home Matters for a consultation. Linda spent several hours walking through the home making suggestions. I spent a few hours over the next few days depersonalizing, painting, packing, etc. Then Linda and her crew delivered furniture and nick knacks to make the home look warm and inviting. They spent several hours staging, organizing and pre-packing and the house looked totally different. I had an offer on the house and I would hire Linda and her crew again in a heartbeat. Hire them sooner rather than later." Lance M., Carmel
"It was an absolute pleasure working with Linda and her company, Home Matters. I was a bit nervous about the whole process of home staging and decorating, but she made everything so much easier than I'd ever imagine. In short, she outlined a fair and reasonable budget and she stuck to her proposal. This to me is professionalism of the highest caliber. Our friends can't believe the difference and we've received many comments about the transformation. It is hard to believe this is the same house we've lived in for so many years, as all the little dings, scratches, wear and tear seemed to vanish overnight. We look forward to working with Linda again in the near future." Jane and Kevin C., Indianapolis
"Thanks so much for you help in getting our home ready to put on the market. It was amazing how you could see exactly how to arrange our furniture and accessories and what we needed to get to make it extra special. I could not vision this, but I've learned a lot through you. I'm glad our Realtor recommended you to us." Ruthi F., Plainfield
"We are in a real estate market where homes typically do not sell in one or two weeks. Based on the comps, I had prepared my sellers for up to 80 plus days on the market, but after your staging service, they shined over their competition and their home sold in just 13 days! They actually received 98% of their asking price. Linda, we will definitely be doing business in the future. Thank you so much for bringing something of such value to the Indianapolis market. Best wishes and much success." Chris C., F.C. Tucker
"I just wanted you to thank you and your team for doing the staging on my listing. This was a very nice setting, but the home was a little rustic. The way you and your team made the house look was remarkable. It really helped to clean out excess bedrooms with too much stuff in them. My sellers just raved about how the home looked and were very appreciated of all of your hard work. The best news was that we had multiple offers and the home sold in 33 days, after being on the market 6 months prior with no offers. As an agent, I really appreciate what you did and do intend on using your services in the future. Thank you." Dianna C., Carpenter Real Estate
