What is Staging?
Our answer is simple.
​
Home Staging is NOT decorating. Simply put, decorating is turning a house into a home, while staging is turning a home into a house. Essentially, staging transforms a property into a commodity which is intended to market and appeal to the largest amount of potential buyers. We bring out a property’s truest potential, so that the buyers fall in love with it right when they walk through the front door, but more importantly; fall in love with the lifestyle of living in that particular property.
