Staging a condo can be like constructing a well-designed roadway. When it comes to furniture, it matters that it is attractive, but it also matters that it all flows together nicely and that traffic is natural and well-planned. That means placing furniture in ways that make sense. It can affect how large the space appears and can turn one room into two or two rooms into one. Just like that.

Are you in the process of selling your home? Are you hoping to get as much money as possible for your property? If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, there is one word that should come to mind: staging.
While some people don’t understand the advantages of staging, others are aware of the benefits due to information they have picked up from their realtor and/or a past experience.
Often, there is one major hang-up: the cost of hiring a professional home staging company.
While you may have some initial concern regarding the cost of home staging, you should never overlook the potential return on investment. In other words, you are going to put out a little bit of money upfront for the chance to earn a lot more on the back-end. This is a tradeoff that most home sellers are more than willing to make.

In a recent blog we highlighted some statistical data on the selling success of professionally staged homes. "Great" you may think to yourself, "but why don't I just stage my home myself"? Good question. After all, you keep a good home, have great taste, and can de-clutter with the best of them, right?

Redesign...A new Twist on Traditional Interior Decorating. Typically when we think of having our house decorated or staged by a professional Interior Decorator or Home Stager we envision living with our homes being invaded by countless trades people, having to endure months of renovations and parting with most, if not all of our familiar furnishings and prized possessions, not to mention our hard earned money. It is an overwhelming thought and not one that most homeowners are comfortable with.
