Vacant staging
We bring everything: furniture, art, rugs, bedding and accessories. An empty house becomes a home buyers can picture themselves living in, from the listing photos to the first showing.
*Starting rates. Kitchen and bathroom styling is included and not counted in square footage. Luxury listings may be priced higher due to luxury furniture or longer install time. Your final quote is confirmed after your walkthrough consult.

Book Vacant Staging ConsultHow vacant staging works
Walkthrough
We tour the home with you or your agent and plan which rooms to stage.
Design
We pull furniture, art and accessories from our inventory, chosen for this home and its buyer.
Install day
Our team delivers and styles everything, so the home is ready for listing photos.
Home is live
Listing photos, open houses and showings. The home stays staged until you're under contract.
Take-down
Once you're under contract, we take everything down and pick it up.
Staging consultations
We walk through the home with the homeowner and/or listing agent and give you a clear plan to get it market-ready: cosmetic fixes, furniture placement and styling advice. We take comprehensive notes so you have everything in writing.
You can take it from there and do it yourself, or bring us back to handle part or all of the work.
Occupied staging
Still living in the home? We style it using mostly your own furniture, then layer in our rugs, art and accessories, plus a few key pieces where they're needed.
A typical occupied staging can include:
- Living room
- Dining room
- Kitchen
- Primary bedroom
- Up to 3 bathrooms
- Powder room
