Stage To Sell

We were recently called to stage this gorgeous vacant model town home because it was one of the last available units in a new building. Why wasn’t this one selling? Because there is no separate dining room or defined eating area. So when it was empty, it was very difficult for the average home buyer [...]

As a professional home stager based in Culver City, I was recently asked to stage this adorable Culver City home. The owner had been renting it out for a year and was now ready to sell and relocate to Northern California. First there was some touchup painting to be done, as well as replacing kitchen [...]

We are often asked whether we can stage a property using some of the home owner’s existing furniture. The answer is a resounding YES! In this case, the seller had perfectly usable pieces for her living and dining room that she was willing to leave behind in order to save a bit on the staging [...]

I have had two stagings recently where we’ve showed up to the property, moving van full, staging crew ready to go, and walked into a full-on construction site! Now you would think I would know better, seeing as how I posted this article back in 2008, warning other stagers to make sure their properties are [...]

In early 2008, I staged a beautiful vacant Santa Monica townhome. At the time, it was my favorite staging to date – very contemporary, hip and fun…not to mention, the agent wrote me the most glowing recommendation I’d ever gotten!

Last week we had the pleasure of staging an adorable, but vacant, Mar Vista family home. It had been used as a rental for awhile, so the homeowner invested in paint, new flooring and cosmetic fixes. Then they brought in a professional home stager to make it feel like home! Here are our after photos. [...]

A couple of weeks ago I received a call from a repeat client who had a new listing on Wagner St. I commented on the fact that I myself live on Wagner St, but didn’t think it was the SAME Wagner St. I mean this is Los Angeles after all. There must be at least [...]

Today Stage to Sell completed the partial Staging of a beautiful townhome in West Los Angeles. When we initially previewed the home, we were happy to see that the homeowners had painted the walls a neutral taupe and had done a faux concrete finish on the fireplace. They had upgraded many of the fixtures and [...]

It’s happened 3 or 4 times in the last month. I’ve walked into a Home Staging consultation for a Los Angeles home and the seller says, “Oh, you’ll be happy because we just painted all the walls white!” I just want to know who has been out there spreading rumors that home buyers want to [...]
