Vacant Home Staging

Make Empty Spaces Feel Like Home

Unfurnished homes can leave buyers feeling uncertain. Without visual context, rooms may appear smaller, colder, or lack purpose. Our vacant staging service brings scale, warmth, and design cohesion to help buyers clearly see how they could live in the space.

What’s Included:

Full design plan customized to the property and its ideal buyer
Professional delivery, setup, and styling
Carefully selected furniture, rugs, artwork, lighting, and accessories
Rental for a standard staging term (typically 30–60 days, with extensions available)

Best suited for:

Vacant staging turns a blank canvas into a vision buyers can connect with — and act on.

Occupied Home Staging

Enhance What You Have. Elevate the Entire Home.

Selling while living in your home? Occupied staging allows you to maintain daily life while still presenting your space in its best light.

We work with your existing furnishings to enhance flow, minimize visual noise, and highlight architectural features. If needed, we integrate supplemental items from our own inventory to elevate key areas without overwhelming the space.

What’s Included:

Best suited for:
