WHAT IS A PROFESSIONAL HOME STAGER?

Professional home stagers are highly skilled are creating stylish spaces that appeal to potential buyers. They are experts who help prepare your home to appeal to a broader audience which translates to a quick and profitable sale. The expertise begins with the initial consultation—neutralizing your home, simplifying, problem solving, designing and planning a layout that will appeal to a lifestyle that buyers are looking for.

From a small scale staging in an occupied property—where they refine the sellers design—to a large scale staging in a vacant property—where they bring in all furnishings and accessories—professional home stagers will work with you to create the "welcome home" feeling buyers are looking for.

Staged homes spend half the time on the market than non-staged homes.

Staging a home will:

  • allow your home to stand out to competitors
  • make more money
  • house will sell faster
  • make your money back

    We contacted Trish at Home Staging to prepare our large empty house for sale. Trish brought in just the right amount of furnishings that fit perfectly in our home. Pictures came out beautifully. She has a great knack for taking a difficult situation and making it work. We are so happy with the photos our realtor used and grateful it helped our home sell.

    Trish has an eye for style and attention to details!  That is why I recommend her highly when choosing a stager.  She staged an estate in Rockport that I listed and the photos came out amazing.  Her professionalism and “can do attitude” instantly puts sellers at ease!

    Trish did a great job staging a home for me to prepare it for sale. She brought warmth & personality to the home. The home went under contract with the buyers the first weekend. Trish has a great eye & style.

    Trish has the most amazing taste in decorating. Trish has never staged my house, however, I have been in her house on many occasions and absolutely love her flair for decorating. I always seek her advice and would use her to stage my house not only for a sale opportunity but for interior design services.

    "Trish has spectacular taste and a knack for decorating. When my daughter wanted a room redesign, Trish transformed the room into a cool space for my daughter and her friends to hang out. She was mindful of budget and found unique pieces to incorporate with existing furniture and utilized the space to its best advantage! If you want good taste combined with great customer service, Trish is the person to choose."
