"I called Jessica when my regular decorator was unable to help me redecorate my bathrooms and I was not disappointed! Jessica responds to all questions and phone calls almost immediately and I absolutely love her choices. My husband was not excited about updating our bathrooms until he saw Jessica’s mood-boards and now even he can’t wait to get started on the project. My only concern is that once the bathrooms are complete we will want to do more updating! Thank you Jessica and Dani! Would definitely recommend. I am a retired real estate agent so I have worked with many home stagers and decorators throughout my 35 year career and I think Jessica’s talents are among the best."
"I cannot say enough good things about Mauricio and his team. They helped with a house clean out for my mother who is relocating. They were efficient, careful, and most importantly sensitive and caring to this difficult life transition. I cannot recommend their services enough."
"TENACITY TENACITY TENACITY! Instead of the often heard real estate mantra: location location location. Cindy Beline listed our property and did everything in her power to help with its sale, even toward the final haul in which she was doing the work and communicating for both us and the buyer's agent. Cindy is down-to-earth, direct and honest. She is also sophisticated and was very quick to understand our needs and what was important to us in the sale of our home. She made excellent recommendations for the staging of our condo as well. I will work with Cindy again without hesitation."
"My experience was excellent. I have never hired or worked with a Home Staging and Redesign Professional. Mary was awesome she made everything very easy and simple from start to finish. I love it that she has such a passion and professional eye to put colors and rearrange a room that makes it look like you just bought an entirely new room."
"I had my siding and balcony washed. The pressure was adjusted for each type of surface. The windows were also washed. I have a 3 level single family home and it was hard to get to some very tall heights. Mariano was easy to work with. The rate was fair for the size and height of the residence. He even provided some tips for regular upkeep."
"Greg and his team moved my belongings, first into storage then into my new home. They worked very hard, very efficiently and with no damage to belongings or the home. In the new home, the experience was the same. We were so happy to see that none of our belongings were damaged, broken or even scratched. I would HIGHLY recommend Greg and his team for any move, large or small!"

"Treated myself to a Big Deal for $99 (6 hrs of cleaning, or 3hrs with 2 people). This is the 2nd time I’ve had someone clean my house, the previous time was also an Angie’s List Big Deal, about 2 years ago. I was so pleased with their services. Paula and her co-worker worked diligently and left my house sparkling. I have a split level home, about 1,500 square feet, occupied by 4 adults and a furry dog. When Paula arrived we discussed my priorities. They were the 3 bathrooms (one was especially in rough shape) and the kitchen. I told her anything else would be bonus as far as I was concerned. They did a great job with the bathrooms and the kitchen, and on top of that vacuumed the living/dining room, hallway & stairs, and mopped the tile floor in my family room. It was so wonderful to have this taken care of before the holiday season."
The average cost to stage a home is around $1,800, with most sellers paying between $800 and $2,800 for professional services. However, the total cost can vary significantly, ranging from $500-$600 for an initial consultation to $5,000 or more for comprehensive, full-home staging.
The final price depends on several factors, including the home's size, location, and condition, as well as the number of rooms being staged. Other key cost drivers include whether you need to rent furniture, the quality of the decor, the stager's experience, and the duration of the staging services. The scope of the project also plays a role, from virtual staging and simple decluttering to full-service design, which may involve repairs and maintenance.
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.
Keep it clutter-free, ensure bright lighting, and follow staging recommendations to maintain visual appeal.
You'll likely need more than great home staging to sell your home. Now is a great time to get to work on the curb appeal of your home . Hire local exterior painters and landscapers to coat the exterior of your home and bring it new life with some sprucing up.
In most cases, selling a home in as-is condition will lead to a sale price that’s somewhere between 10% and 30% lower than normal. However, it’s often worthwhile to sell at a loss because the alternative would be to pay for the repairs yourself, which could end up costing you more. Even if they didn’t, selling as-is saves you from the time and energy you’d spend coordinating the repairs.
