Columbus Home Staging
WONDERFUL!! Susanne did such a great job from beginning to end. By the time she was finished our house it looked 50% larger and like something you would see in a magazine. It sold in 2 hours at $15,000 over list. Can't say enough good things about Susanne and her team PLUS her prices were much lower than most other stagers. Well worth every penny

sSharon Wong does a fabulous job helping my sellers prepare their homes for market. She provides inexpensive ideas to make the home really "Pop" for buyers. She also provides a punch out list of items for sellers to repair. Staging helps the homes sell quickly and for more money. I happily recommend Ready Set Sell

A Change of Space LLC
Debbie and Carol were great to work with! Selling a home in January is no easy feat; however, A Change of Space rose to the occasion and did an excellent job with the task. I highly recommend this company.

Element One Home Staging & Redesign
My husband and I hired Lori Murphy of Element One Home Staging & Redesign to assist us in preparing and staging our four-bedroom, two-and ½ -bath home built in 1991 to sell. We wanted it to have an updated, fresh design that would have universal appeal to buyers. Our goal was to spend some money up front to make a great first impression with the hopes of a quick sale close to our asking price. Lori helped us achieve these goals and exceeded our expectations! Prior to hiring her, we had finished bathroom remodeling and a partial kitchen remodel. First, Lori performed a consultation and proposal during which she walked through the home with me, gave some suggestions for staging and fine-tuning the remodel, and then performed an example staging of our family room. I also asked her to perform a color consultation and she selected paint colors for the various rooms in the home. Prior to her visit, my husband and I attempted to select colors, but were not happy with our test results. She quickly gave recommendations, some of which we had not considered, but all of which were very fresh, appealing, and easy to coordinate. Everyone, from our family and friends, to the professional painters who performed the work, to the realty agents, and the potential buyers admired her color selections! My husband and I even plan to use some of the same colors to re-paint rooms in our new home! We were so pleased with her color recommendations and the written proposal that she presented, that we opted for her First Impressions complete staging package to stage our entire house prior to listing. Lori was very professional throughout the process, had excellent communication and follow-up, was creative, and was just very enjoyable and pleasant to work with. I especially like her flexibility ? she is willing to perform as much or as few of the steps as we wanted, based on our time availability, interest, and budget. She is very conscientious about budgets, which we also appreciated. She worked with many of our existing furniture and décor items and supplemented when needed with new or rented items. For new items, she either shops for the client or provides examples if the client prefers to shop ? we did both. Prior to her staging appointment, she provided an action plan for us to follow to maximize the two days of staging. She worked extremely hard and absolutely transformed our house on a very reasonable budget! For the first time in 12 years, we loved our home! The realty agents we interviewed appreciated the flow and openness of the house and were optimistic about selling the house quickly. We were able to list our house above our goal price, had multiple showings and multiple offers within the first 24 hours, and were in contract the next day at our list price! Lori played a significant role in helping us sell our house much more quickly than we could have anticipated! We had placed an offer on another home and were in contract with the sale of our home as a contingency. This quick sale helped us to remove the contingency before another buyer could place an offer on the home we wanted. We definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking to stage their home prior to a sale, but also highly recommend her for re-design in general ? we wished we would have utilized her services years ago when we would have had time to enjoy her work and would like to hire her again to help with the layout of our new home

Columbus Home Staging
She did a really great job! She only had to use a little of my furniture and knick-knacks. She most of her own items. She transformed my home! I received an offer for my home within 1 day after re-listing it and I had it listed for 6 months with another Realtor before that. I inquired with her about interior design last month. She has an excellent eye for color and design. It was amazing

Columbus Home Staging
Suzanne was quick to follow up with my initial inquiry and was quickly able to come out and perform a quote. Her team moved everything in without any issues and everything looked great. I noticed almost an immediate increase in scheduled viewings. Within 2 weeks I was in contract to sell. I dont think I would have sold this quickly without having it staged. I have referred Suzanne to my realtor and will also use in the future myself

Diane is a high energy, get-to-work, and hands-on person. She gave me lots of input, then actually helped move furniture and hang pictures. She was great on answering my follow-up questions quickly and accurately. The feedback I've gotten thus far from others seeing what she's done and recommended has all been very positive. I highly recommend this company

SILVESTRI INTERIORS LTD
Karen showed up on time during one of the worst snow days of the winter. Karen has great personal style, and I felt comfortable with trusting her judgement on the best way to present my house for sale. She spent about 30 minutes showing us a video presentation (which I think most of it is on her website if you want to review in advance). Karen then walked through our house from room to room, starting with the most important rooms first (1st floor). I took notes about her suggestions so that I could implement changes later. She suggested furniture moves, which we did on the spot, suggested removing decorative items, furniture pieces, etc. She spent about 2 hours going theough all of our rooms. We did every single thing that she suggested, even taking down decorations that I didn't want to take down. Luckily our house was very neutral in colors, clean, updated cabinets/woodwork, and maintained very well. We didn't have any major repairs or even painting. All of her changes were purely cosmetic. We sold our house in 3 days for almost full asking price. We felt we had a very nice house, and with the changes Karen suggested, it looked the best that it could

Caroline Wefel-Fort
Caroline did an outstanding job selling our condo in a difficult real estate environement. She came in and gave us a thorough and accurate description of our condo and an asking price that seemed optimistic. She told us what things we could do to add even more value to our place and helped us stage it. My wife and I left for a 4 month trip leaving a power-of-attorney in another state and Caroline did everything. She even came out to let our carpet installer in and took care of the staging with her own furniture. She found us multiple buyers and we had our first offer in less than 2 weeks. She e-mailed us every update and within 2 months found us the perfect offer. She handled all of the inspections herself and when one of the inspections revealed the need for more work she arranged all of the contractors herself and had it up to code within one week. We were extremely impressed. Most of all she is extremely pleasant to work with and always made herself available. If she has any weaknesses we certainly did not find them and she really went above and beyond our expectations. Our Power of Attorney said that she did everything herself and that they even handled the closing via fax

READY SET SELL
Our realtor uses Sharon to help stage her clients' houses prior to listing. So, in full disclosure, we didn't actually pay for the consultation, but after having used her and hearing what she would normally charge, we would definitely do so in the future. Sharon was flexible with scheduling, came on fairly short notice, was very professional and organized and she really does know her staging stuff. She made really good suggestions, wrote everything down so we could refer back to it when we were actually ready to list, and didn't ask us to do a bunch of silly stuff. And, we had our house on the market 2 years ago and had no offers after 4 months. This time, we had multiple offers in less than 3 weeks. I know there are a lot of variables at play when selling a house, but I can't help but think Sharon's staging played a big role. We received a lot of favorable feedback about how the house showed, too

SUZY'S HELPING HANDS LLC
Suzy explained the process. Family members were encouraged to takes items important to them. She introduced us to an auctioneer that we worked with to sell items that had sale potential. Her crew then sorted items to be donated and items to be thrown away. She took care of both. She introduced us to a contractor (separate contract and cost) with whom she worked very closely. The contractor repaired, painted, and re-carpeted the house. This same contractor also worked some outside issues doing an excellent job. Suzy's crew then returned and cleaned the house, washed windows, staged the house and did a beautiful job restoring the landscaping. Suzy is an excellent communicator. She showed compassion, care and really wanted to serve the needs of our family. She and her crews worked diligently and efficiently to complete the job on our tight time schedule and at a very reasonable cost for the work accomplished

Element One Home Staging & Redesign
Elements One Home Staging is NOT just for staging your home to sell it, but to stage or redecorate a home you are moving into or continuing to live in. By the time I found Lori Murphy we had already done the best we could do on our own to get the old home ready for sale and showings. After looking at only four homes, we unexpectedly found the perfect home for our needs. We had a week and a half to get it ready for sale and viewing. My realtor was a big help in going through our home and giving us ideas to get it ready for sale. Get rid of a lot of decorations and make it look as much as possible like a nice hotel room. Lori Murphy from Elements One Home Staging is at the top of my list as the best part of our recent move. We were moving from a 4-level split home situation into a one floor plan condo with about the same square footage (2400+ square feet). After 24 years in the same home built in the mid 1960's and remodeling parts of it along the way we moved into a 10-year old completely different floor plan. We went from 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, a large pantry, 3 linen closets in a pretty typically build home with separate living room, dining room, basement laundry, three season room/porch and family room. Our new home is 2 or 3 bedrooms with an open floor plan between the kitchen, living room, and dining room. No linen closets, no pantry, 2 full baths, and we were only using two bedrooms in that capacity. I simply couldn't decide where to place my furniture and pictures and what colors to paint the new home. A mistake in paint color could cost me both the money spent on paint and the painter's fees as well as regret and unhappiness. The old home had rooms painted different colors for each bedroom and other room spaces during the course of our 24 years there. I now wanted to start fresh with paint throughout the new home before I moved in. The new home currently was painted a goldish green flat paint with typical wear marks on all walls throughout along with lovely white woodwork and built-ins that didn't need anything but a couple of touchups in an area or two. The current paint in the home was simply depressing and didn't even begin to show off the beauty of the new home. Lori Murphy first came to my current home and saw my decorations and furnishings. Then we were off for a visit to the new home. Lori brought with her a number of full size paint samples (not the typical tiny chips from the paint store). She identified a fantastic combination of 3 colors to be used in the home. One color for all the common areas, one color for the bedrooms and another for a lovely front living room. I felt such relief as I knew that there was not going to be a mistake made with the paint. I felt complete confidence in the paint choice we decided on and could move on to other moving tasks. At my request, she helped me chose a paint sheen and a level of paint to use from a well known brand of paint. When I told my experienced painter what paint I was using, he was extremely happy and he did a wonderful job on all the walls and touch-up on a little woodwork. It of course took two coats on all wall surfaces. Everyone who has seen the results of Lori's work are loving it as are we. The home has simply been transformed. So fresh and modern feeling. She had some very fresh ideas on furniture arrangement and art placement that I would have never thought of and I feel that I am pretty creative in many ways. I have to give her the credit when I get compliments on the decor and furniture placement or I feel guilty. For a relatively small amount of money, she made the whole difference in our moving experience and may have saved us hundreds of dollars in mistakes. Lori Murphy from Elements One is so friendly and down to earth and is wonderful at her chosen profession. She is willing to work on your budget and keeps her costs as reasonable as possible. What a fantastic experience it was working with Lori Murphy during our recent move

She was able to come the day after Thanksgiving on short notice. She was extremely professional, organized and personable. She took the fear out of staging our home. Her suggestions were reasonable. With one of her suggestions we immediately removed a piece of furniture from our We removed other things as soon as she left that took away from the appearance of our home. We saw our house through different eyes. Some things we were aware of and others we did not know. Her suggestions gave us a practical plan to work with. She left here suggestions in an easy to follow room by room assessment. Within a week, we have assessed the cost of replacing lighting and plumbing fixtures and carpeting for a couple rooms. We visited one of her referrals and they offered us a discount for their services when they found out that she referred us. Within 15 minutes we had the samples of what we needed along with an appointment for the next week! We are excited about the process, because we have a thorough plan, a reasonable outlay of money, manageable expectations, a room by room assessment, joint agreement with the suggestions and the confidence that it can be done. We plan to call her again as soon as we complete our customized plan

Lauer Realty Group
Liz Lauer helped my husband and I purchase our first home as well as sell it. As a buyer's agent, Liz was extremely knowledgeable about the area neighborhoods and houses. She was very easy going and fun to work with. Liz was also very good at identifying what kind of house we wanted and forthright about the conditions of the houses we saw. She helped us find and obtain the exact kind of house in the neighborhood we wanted within our budget. Five years later when we sold our house, Liz helped us efficiently and effectively stage the house. We accepted a respectable offer in one week of the house being put on the market. One week before the closing, a major problem arose on the buyer's end that would have jeopardized the sale of our home and impeded our ability to purchase the home in which we were about to move. It was midday Friday on the start of a holiday weekend, with a mere four business hours remaining prior to closing, and Liz ensured the problem was resolved on time. Our house sold as scheduled thanks to her tenacity. Liz even helped us find a realtor to use in the city we moved to by speaking with agents until she found one that would be able to best understand our needs. My husband and I highly recommend Liz Lauer and will use her services again should we ever move back into the area

Home Stagers Near Me FAQs
The average cost to stage a home is around $1,800, and most home sellers pay between $800 and $2,800 for professional staging services. Your total could fall outside of this range, though, depending on a few factors:
Whether or not you need to rent furniture
Size of your home
Home’s location
Condition and style of your home
Whether you choose virtual or physical staging
Whether you choose decor yourself or add-on design services
Stager’s experience
Quality of the items and decor
Length of home staging services
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.
Professional home staging services can vary widely among properties and professionals, so most experts have customizable packages. Some common services home stagers offer include the following:
Furniture and decor rental
Set up and take down of rented materials
Professional interior design services
Decluttering for occupied houses
Exterior painting to improve curb appeal
Garden bed management to improve curb appeal
Minor repairs and home maintenance
You can connect with a professional home stager to see what’s included in their packages or ask for a custom service.
Choosing a high-quality home stager can mean the difference between your home flying off the shelves or sitting on the market for weeks or months, and it all starts with verifying the stager’s experience. You can start by asking how long the professional has been in the business, and you should also ask for references and examples of past work in your particular area. Ask the stager about your options, including virtual staging, furniture rental, and other preparation services.
It is usually better to stage a house than to leave it empty. There’s some psychology behind home staging, as buyers are more likely to be able to envision themselves living in a property if they see it furnished. 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 between an empty structure and a place they call home. Professional staging services can help improve a buyer’s opinion of your house, potentially prompting them to offer more.

Did you know?
If you’re planning to put your home on the market, staging it will help you close a sale 88% faster.
Why? Staging makes it easier for potential buyers to picture themselves living in your home. Sellers can disguise awkward-looking rooms and spaces by staging them in an attractive manner. And because most buyers start their home search by looking through online listings, staging allows you to post attractive photos.
How to hire a home stager near you:
Use the above list of nearby home staging pros to find the best in your area. All of the reviews and grades are free so you can quickly find the top companies. Be sure to get three estimates for a competitive price, but if you feel comfortable with a company, read a few of their online reviews before getting started with contract signing.
Two tips for staging your home:
Identify the most relevant rooms to stage. Staging is all about drawing attention to specific areas of the home. Decide which rooms will be the selling point of your property (such as the living room, kitchen, and master bedroom) and prepare them for staging. Also make sure you stage any awkward spaces- such as large, empty areas or tiny rooms.
Focus on walls and clutter. De-cluttering is the most important step when staging your home. Remove all clutter from targeted areas and make sure everything is clean and neat. You should also add some life to plain walls by hanging a few pictures (to make it look homely) or using a lively paint color.
How much does home staging cost?
Many home staging services charge $300-$600 for an initial consultation, followed by a monthly fee of about $500 per room, per month.
