home staging west palm beach: Cover your clients hole when de-staging - 07/14/09 07:59 AM

Were stagers, we hammer, screw and display lots of different forms of art on the walls of our clients. We do make it look picture perfect!
A long time ago I wrote about this but I recently had an experience I want to share with everyone. Every time I do a contract for a staging I make sure I word that the Property will be staged until it sells or client gives a15 day notice. Well, this client informed me that he was going to keep half of the monthly rental until we destaged their property they would give other … (12 comments)

home staging west palm beach: It's SPRING and Home Stagers are blooming all over......OMG - 06/10/09 05:20 AM

Im writing this refering to the South Florida Home Stagers situation. When I first started Staging a bit shy of 3 years ago, clients would call ask for quote and then staged with us. I have noticed that has changed drastically during the past year in my market. Now clients are getting 3-4 quotes for stagings , they take the lowest one and have another stager  see it and they ask to improve it to give them the job. This has caused the staging fees to go down considerably!!! .
 You know how we all google for stagers in your area … (15 comments)

home staging west palm beach: Are your listing's windows so dirty they are obstructing the view to a SALE ? - 03/28/09 07:00 AM
 
   I had the pleasure of working with a family that is selling their own property. Prior to my staging  I gave them a list of to do things. They only complied with half of the list. One of the most important things on that list was cleaning all windows..I meant Q-Tip clean.  Something that really needed to be done.

 I mean imagine wearing glasses to be able to see everything, but if the glasses are dirty  everything looks, blurry, blah!  But when those glasses are clean its an entire different perspective. Are the windows in your house so … (9 comments)

Then you are probably thinking something is wrong with this picture!

home staging west palm beach: How do you do to Stage odd areas ? by Eclectic Home Staging of the Palm Beaches - 09/25/08 05:01 AM
Sometimes we are asked to go and give a Staging Bid on a vacant and you bump into an area that even the owner has no clue what to do with it. This 27 story Condo has gorgeous views of the Intercoastal and beautiful Singer Island. The floorplan is very open and this area is next to the living and Dining area.

I came up with the idea of making this into a Bar/lounge area.
This is how it turned out after Staged
