"Everything went well, all additional services were scheduled as needed, they just handled it. Communication before, during and now even after the Whole House inspection has been phenominal. The gift package delivered prior to the inspection date was a very nice touch. Another nice touch was tagging all shutoff valves in the basement with tags clearly marking what each valve controls. During the inspection Steve was polite, profession and easily communicated what he was doing and why. Very personable and the way he presented himself instantly put me at ease. His report was delivered on time and was easy to read and understand especially with all the supporting photos. Lots of follow-ups post inspection with additional information and links to services home buyers would be interest in. Great information and not so much of it that it is intrusive. I'll recommend Steve and Bulldog to everyone needing these services."
They said it was a good house, but a closer look revealed a property that was hiding 2 major defects that made my buyers walk away after negotiations - hail damage and termite damage so extensive they were even in the attic.  Can you spot the issue in each photo?

"The only problem I had was in the beginning, trying to get the work scheduled.  I am not sure if it was because they had so much work, or if the scheduling people weren’t very organized."

"I was doing a photo shoot at a clients house,
however the house was completely empty since it was being in the process of
being sold. I decided to call up Homemade Design to see if they could stage the living
room and dining room for us. Amanda picked up the phone and said they would be
happy to help us and gave us a very comparable quote so I decided to go with
them. Their team showed up right on time and got to work immediately. I was
extremely happy with the results.  All of
the photos looked amazing! Thanks Homemade Design! I will be using you again in the
future.

Did a good job, providing 2 layouts to choose from.  Completed design and sent email and snail mail paint and furniture samples in a little over a month from starting the process.  The previous estimate was 2-3 weeks so it wasn't so late.  My only disappointment was the design was not for the complete room.  They told me that the missing area was considered an entry way or hallway and could be designed for an additional fee.  I did not want to pay an additional and accepted their explanation, but on second thought, in my opinion, it isn't really separate.  There is a large archway one-third of the way into the room, but I have never considered it as two separate rooms and no one visiting my home has ever mentioned it.  Every room has an entrance.  I wouldn't call the way to get into a room as a separate room. Other than that, I would say a got a great deal overall.

We started Elevate Kansas City because we realized how challenging it is for homeowners to find dependable and professional service with commitment to excellence and dedication to thoughtful and respectful customer relations. \n\nWe manage all sizes of projects, but the majority of our work is in surface preparation which includes painting, drywall, texturing, flooring, tile work, and wall paper removal. We also have a resident master carpenter for framing, trim work (baseboard, crown molding, door and window trim, and cabinet customization and install)\n\nWe provide design and color consultation if needed and only use the highest rated paints. We can also use any paint you provide. If you need kitchen cabinet or bathroom cabinets and vanities refinished, we can prep and spray paint your cabinets for a super smooth finish. \n\nOur estimates are free and our project plan is accurate and realistic, which allows us to work around your schedule and plans, as well as minimize disruptions.

Home Staging questions, answered by experts

Fresh baseboards can increase a home’s value because they refresh the look of your walls. This can make a good impression on buyers and potentially boost your home’s resale value. This is particularly helpful if your existing baseboards are in bad shape, which can age the look of your walls. 

Consider also investing in the cost to install shoe molding for an extra-polished look that can further boost resale value.

Yes, staging a home really works and can help your home sell faster, potentially for a higher price than if you did not use a home staging service. According to the National Association of Realtors, 48% of seller’s agents reported home staging decreased a home’s time on the market. 

Plus, 20% of buyer’s and seller’s agents claimed home staging increased home sale prices by 1% to 5%. Although decluttering and cleaning help a home sell, staging can take your home’s curb appeal to the next level, helping to expedite the process and increase your profit.

Professional home staging services can vary between companies and properties, but the primary goal is to set up a house with aesthetic furniture and decor to entice potential buyers. Many stagers offer customizable packages, and you can often pay for additional services. Common offerings include:

  • Design and Planning: Color design, planning each room's layout, and professional interior design services.

  • Furniture and Decor: Choosing and renting furniture, decor, and artwork. This also includes the setup and takedown of all rented materials.

  • Arrangement and Organization: Rearranging existing furniture, decluttering, and organizing the space.

  • Ambiance: Creating a welcoming atmosphere with strategic lighting and accessories.

  • Repairs and Maintenance: Minor repairs, home maintenance, and addressing visible issues.

  • Curb Appeal: Improving the home's exterior with services like painting and garden bed management.

It's best to connect with a professional home stager to see what’s included in their specific packages or to request a custom service.

It is generally better to stage a house than to leave it empty, as it can help the home sell faster and for a higher price. Staging helps potential buyers envision themselves living in the property. According to the National Association of Realtors, more than 75% of buyer’s agents report that staging makes it easier for buyers to build a connection with the home. Furthermore, a 2018 survey of over 4,200 professionally staged homes revealed that most sold for 6% to 25% more than their unstaged counterparts. Using a professional staging service can improve a buyer’s opinion of your house and may lead to higher offers.

In most cases, staging a home is expensive but worth every penny. According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), 81% of agents representing buyers stated that staging made a positive impact on the buyer’s perception of the house and made it easier to visualize it as a home. The value of your home—which is to say the amount buyers are willing to spend—is based on perception alone and not the inherent value of the land or structure. Therefore, improving the appeal of your home through staging is likely to make your home more enticing during a home sale.
