Full Service Staging Consultation for Real Estate 
starts at $175
A complete 2 hour evaluation and walk through the interior and exterior of the home while utilizing a comprehensive checklist which will translate into a type-written report. The report provides cost effective, detailed, practical instructions for homeowners. Paint colors will be suggested where needed. Typed report is completed in approximately 48 hours and copies are sent to both realtor and seller. Fee covers up to 4 bedrooms, 2 ½ baths; fees vary for larger properties; call for estimate.
During a staging consult, I advise on a number of areas including:
- Assess the interior and exterior
- Color analysis room by room
- Assess lighting for interior/exterior
- Facilitate furniture/accessory rental
- Facilitate sub-contractors
- Furniture placement & editing
- Organizing & de-cluttering
- Pre-flip consultations & vacant home staging
"Quick Fix" Staging Consultationstarts at $145
Our most popular service...This walk through service is 90 minutes and covers all the areas listed above but without a written report. During the assessment the homeowner takes notes of all the changes and ideas discussed for the project. Great for those on a tight budget but really need advice on what they can do in terms of staging (prepping the property for sale). Seller will also receive a COMPLIMENTARY kit with lots of tips, instructions/handouts on staging and getting ready for an open house. Offer good in Orange, Rockland and parts of Dutchess counties; fee covers up to 4 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths; fees vary for larger properties.
Home Highlight Service - NEW
I am very excited about this new "value-added" feature. Simply put, my new Home Highlight service is one that offers a COMPLIMENTARY e-postcard with every staging consult. My most important goal as a stager is to do everything possible to enhance and propel the sale of a home. So, to that end, I will be offering a FREE e-postcard for every staging consultation. The postcard will feature the address, price, ML#, # bedrooms, # baths, finished sq. ft., and lot size. Agents, I can also add photos or a virtual tour link, whichever you choose.
A 'Home Highlight' will blast to my entire database which is over 400 contacts. I believe this "value-added" service sets me apart from other stagers and will also increase and broaden the exposure of the homes that I stage and consult on.
Home Staging Install $75 per hour
For those selling a vacant or occupied property…I will return to your home after you have received your report/consult and perform the staging/stylizing that you have requested from start to finish. I will ‘stage’ the rooms discussed and make those items on the report come to life. Most homes require an average of 2-4 hours to complete the transformation and to get the desired "photo ready look" to show to prospective buyers. Entire home or partial staging/styling is available to suit any budget. There is a 2-hour minimum and staging installations can vary (in number of hours to complete) depending on the scope of the project and what needs to be addressed.
