Occupied Home Staging
Staged to Sell Packages & Pricing
About 80% of houses for sale are lived in, or "occupied" while selling.
Many occupied homes can be amazingly transformed, often USING ONLY THE OWNER'S ITEMS, into spaces that buyers are looking for.
"Staging" them involves a customized Action Plan utilizing the "FEEL At HOME" acronym, with the goal of highlighting key features that will attract more buyers and make more money for the sellers.
We also can bring in additional small furnishings and accessories to supplement what will be in the house.

Let me show you what the key MONEY-MAKERS are in each room of your house!
OVERVIEW
During this powerfully transformative Consultation, I will explain specifically how to transform each room into a marketable space that appeals to most buyers so the house is ready for photos, showings, and offers! After following through on the plan, you will be amazed at how the house looks in the important MLS marketing photos. I'll apply data and facts about what buyers want, using your items and with your timeline and budget in mind.
DURING THE CONSULTATION
We'll follow our unique 9-step FEEL-At-HOME process during our (up to) 2.5 hours. I'll conduct a thorough walk-through with you while you fill out the Seller's Action Plan with my specific recommendations, removing the guesswork about how to get the most money out of your house.
From curb to closets, we include:
* curb appeal
* highlighting the fixed features and downplaying distractions
* pre-packing recommendations
* optimal furniture, art, and accessory arrangement
* solving common issues such as repairs, pet situations, cleaning etc…
* paint and color decisions
* a low-cost, high-return shopping list for updates
* a priority list so you feel confident in knowing where to start!
We provide guides as needed such as closet organization, light bulbs, styling examples and more!
When completed, you'll have a prioritized plan to make your house as marketable as possible, and feel confident in the next steps you need to take to get there.
