As a professional home stager in Atlanta, Georgia, I'm frequently asked what the home staging process is like. The questions range from "how long does it take?" to, "how do you select the furniture and accessories?." Fair questions, for sure. Before I elaborate on these two questions, it's important to understand that the process will vary by stager. The best advice I can offer is to ensure you ask these questions of the stagers you've reach out to.
As for my answers:
- How long does it takes to stage? We do it in a day. We typically arrive in the a.m. and leave when the home is completely staged. The amount of hours will depend on the size of the home.
- How do you select the furniture and accessories? I gain insight into the demographics of the buyer. Knowing whether they will be young, old, with kids or without kids is important. Next, I match the selection based on the style of the home. A contemporary home will get more contemporary pieces. A traditional home will be matched with traditional furniture and accessories.
The selection of the furniture and accessories is absolutely my favorite part. After deciding on the furniture, and the day before the staging, I'm physically inside my warehouse and hand selecting each of the items. When I make those decision on the accessories, I've also visualized exactly where that piece will go and pack-up, by room. I've found that it makes the physical staging so much easier.
So without further ado, here's my latest Atlanta Home Staging Before and After Pictures:
