STAGE IT – LIST IT – SELL IT
At Seattle Staged to Sell & Design, our focus is to design with intention. From the first visit to your home, we create a custom concept, thinking of every possible aspect of the design.
Boutique home staging is about more than placing furniture in a home--we run with your concept to create a design that is unique to your specific home and targeted buyer. No homebuyer is generic, so why should your design be?
While price creates interest, home staging brings offers!

VACANT STAGING
Creating a customized lifestyle image that targets likely buyers
- We bring in carefully chosen furniture and accessories from our extensive inventory that highlight the most desirable qualities of your home based on demographic research, homestyle trends, and the targeted buyers for your neighborhood.
- We introduce lifestyle themes designed to appeal to targeted home buyers.
- Vacant staging is ideal for home owners who have already moved out of their home and wish to sell quickly.
- Options include staging the entire house or just a few strategically selected rooms.
- Pricing varies based on square footage of areas to be staged, access and location.
PRE-LISTING CONSULTATION
Providing an individualized plan of action for occupied homes before staging
- A professional design consultant will discuss your sale’s goals, budget and timeline with you and/or your agent.
- The home’s exterior will be evaluated for improvements to enhance curb appeal.
- A comprehensive walk-through of the home will be performed to assess furniture, furniture placement, flow, clutter, lighting, color, accessories and any needed repairs.
- Focal points of the home will be identified as well as any problem areas.
- Following an evaluation of the property as seen through the buyers’ eyes, we present detailed options for preparing your home for the market.
- We provide a complete list of our recommendations designed to get the most money for the home in the shortest time possible.
- This consultation usually takes between 1.5 to 2.5 hours and is a different service from our complimentary walkthroughs.

- A pre-listing consultation is required for all occupied homes prior to staging day.
We also provide effective strategies for keeping the home show-ready for those who will be living in the house while it is on the market. This is particularly beneficial for busy families.

- Pricing varies based on the number of rooms and pieces used from our own inventory, the access to the home and its location.
- This is usually a great option for sellers who are looking to save some money by using some of their own pieces and blending them with our expansive inventory.
RE-DESIGN STAGING
Transforming the look and feel of your home
