Home Staging is not an expense but an investment!
Consultation and Proposal
The Refined Design will walk through out your home and
determine what a buyer’s first impression would be in each
room. This can be a sensitive moment for you! We will then
determine how we can bring each room to its fullest
potential. This is our goal! To use each room in your home
as a marketing tool to sell your home. These recommendations
may require repairs, painting, and updates. We will end with
a proposal based on how much work the home needs and which
home staging package will fit that need. This process can
take up to 2 hours.
Vacant Home Staging
Package (Free Consultation)
Vacant homes do
not show well since only 10% of homebuyers can visualize the
potential of a home when it is empty. The Refined Design
vacant stage is a four phase process:
1) We spend up to 2 hours
reviewing the home, taking photos, and room measurements. We
will then submit a vacant staging bid to you. If accepted;
2) We will coordinate and
select furniture rental and accessories that coordinate with
the style of your home.
3) We insure smooth delivery
of the furniture rental and set up the home in a unique
style. You will love what you see!
4) De-stage the home at the
request of the Owner/Realtor. Keep in mind the idea of
having the house staged through the final walk-thru. Empty
rooms reveal negative aspects of the home such as a crack in
the wall or a scratch on the hardwood floor.
Half Day or Full Day of
Home Staging OR Interior Redesign
Your budget, the size of your home, and depending on the
amount of “stuff” you have will determine the cost of
staging. You won’t believe what a difference a day can make!
Our artful eye will work to create warmth in each room of
your home so that it appeals to all potential buyers. Our
first goal is to work with what you have. This sometimes
involves moving your furniture, artwork, and accessories
around through out the home to create flow and balance. We
may need to address issues such as; eliminating clutter,
excessive furniture, cleanliness, pet odors, and other
issues (don’t be sensitive about this...whatever it takes to
sell your home!) We may suggest investing in purchases for
you to make such as; new bedding (you can use it in your new
home) or towels for the bathroom to enhance the look. We
will bring in our own accessories in order to complete the
look if we think it is necessary. We will take photos of the
home for your Realtor’s marketing efforts.
