Frequently asked questions
Starting is simple:
1. Fill out our free Home Staging Consultation form
2. Send us clear photos of each room and floor plans (if available)
3. We'll contact you within 24 hours to discuss your needs
4. Note: We can only send an accurate proposal if the information shows your property's layout and current condition clearly
To provide a precise quote, we need:
• Clear photos of each room (including problem areas)
• Floor plans with measurements (if available)
• Your target listing price
• Desired timeline for listing
• Any specific buyer demographics you're targeting
Yes. Our initial consultations are complimentary and include a basic assessment of your property's potential. This gives you a clear understanding of the recommended services and approximate investment before making any commitment.
Our streamlined process ensures exceptional results:
• You submit floor plans and current property photos
• We provide a customized proposal with clear pricing
• Upon approval and deposit payment, we schedule your staging day
• Our team delivers, installs, and styles your property
• Professional photographers capture the transformation
• Your property hits the market with maximum impact
• After the sale, we remove all staging items (unless the buyer wishes to purchase them)
Always before listing. We prepare, stage, style, and deliver all marketing materials so your property launches perfectly from day one. Starting strong prevents the market from perceiving your listing as "stale" after a few weeks.
• Consultation and proposal: 1-2 business days
• Scheduling: Typically 1-2 weeks from deposit (faster for rush jobs)
• Installation: 1-3 days depending on property size
• Photography: 1 day (delivered within 48 hours)
• Duration: Staging remains in place for 3 months (extensions available)
Yes. Many buyers fall in love with the complete look we create. Buyers can:
• Purchase selected staged pieces
• Blend them with their own furniture
• Work with us for complete furnishing solutions
• We offer special pricing for buyers who wish to keep the staged look
Beyond faster sales and higher offers, staged listings:
• Generate 3-5x more online engagement
• Create stunning marketing materials that elevate your brand
• Reduce time spent explaining away flaws or empty spaces
• Enhance your reputation for delivering premium results
• Lead to smoother transactions with fewer buyer objections
Our staging creates a consistent standard of excellence across your listings, positioning you as the agent who delivers a premium experience. This reputation attracts more high-end sellers and qualified buyers to your business.

Yes, dramatically. Our staged properties consistently sell for 5-20% above non-staged comparables. A recent client invested €30,000 in renovation and staging, resulting in a €400,000 higher final sale price compared to their original listing—a 13x return on investment.
Absolutely. The math is clear:
• Your first price reduction typically costs 5-10% of property value
• Our premium staging services cost:
• Light restyling with your furniture: 0.1-0.3% of asking price
• Full staging with our luxury inventory: 0.3-0.7% of asking price
• Complete renovation and staging: 1-2% of asking price
Professional preparation almost always costs significantly less than a single price reduction.
Empty spaces appear smaller, highlight flaws, and lack emotional appeal. When buyers can't envision themselves living in a space, they offer less—if they make offers at all. Our staging creates an immediate emotional connection that transforms "just looking" into "must have."
Most occupied homes benefit from professional restyling. Personal taste rarely aligns with broad market appeal. Our designers expertly declutter, rearrange existing pieces, and add strategic elements to highlight your home's best features while helping buyers envision themselves in the space.
