The Open House Was A Huge Success!

By
Home Stager with Dramatic Home Staging

This Open House was a great success!  This was a unique staging project in that the home is a product for a community revitalization project in Houston.  Due to some concerns of the owner, I did not bring in any furniture except two parson chairs.  There was a dining room table (no chairs) and a china cabinet where the hutch lacked the glass shelving (We removed the hutch and staged it as a buffet).  I was not allowed to hang curtains or wall art, either.  So my staging was limited to mostly the kitchen and bathrooms, as you can see from the pictures (MLS #4702302).  But it was fun - the broker, Andrea Cooksey of Quality Properties and the agent, Courtney Williams are great to work with, too.  The  broker was so impressed and pleased with the outcome, that she is scheduling an agent's open house.  For that event, we will furnish the living room and two of the three bedrooms.  But, the open house was a success and I know they'll get an offer soon.  As for the second staging job that was scheduled, it was re-scheduled to be staged later this week, for another open house on next Sunday.

Hi Beth, thank you!  It was a challenge not being able to bring in the furniture, hang drapes, or artwork.  But it impressed the realtor and buyers so I was happy about the turn out of the project.  And, the master bath, that's my favorite, too.

Hey Debra - Thank you for the feedback.   Even with the limitations, there is an offer on the house.  This property has been on the market for over 7 months - Two days after staging it, there is an offer.  The agent told me that everyone that attended the open house liked the vignettes - and, especially the master bathroom!  Seems I did ok with that one. :)
