LET'S STAGE IT
staged-living-room

Having your home professionally staged is the first step in connecting with buyers. Gorgeous marketing photos will make your listing stand out from the rest and help buyers emotionally connect to your space.  

Don't have a lot of money to invest in staging your home? No problem!  I specialize in using what you already have to make your home shine.  The investment in a consultation alone will set you up for DIY success without having to bring in all new furnishings.


SO WHAT EXACTLY IS OCCUPIED STAGING? 

It is the critical first step in preparing your home for sale if you will be living in it while it is on the market. Staging is an art form used to market a home by highlighting its positive features while downplaying imperfections.  It starts with pre-packing personal items & excess furnishings, refreshing paint and décor & rearranging your furniture for optimal placement and flow.


HOME STAGING IS ALSO PROVEN TO WORK! 

Staged homes sell faster & for more money than unstaged homes, so don't leave money on the table.  You will have the benefit of working with an award-winning, professionally certified home stager.  I understand the buyer demographic, real estate market & current trends in our area, helping you to get top dollar for your home.  


THE TOP 10 REASONS TO STAGE YOUR HOME

Yelp Review

The advice on what not to alter vs what projects to tackle was a game changer.

Jodi provided excellent staging advice for the sale of our home in an extremely organized and complete manner. The advice on what not to alter vs what projects to tackle was a game changer. We followed her initial written direction over the course of the 6-month period we prepped, and it helped result in multiple offers 10-20% over asking within three days of the house hitting the market.

I believe that her suggestions on renovations to perform, paint colors to use, plants and decor to purchase, and how to choose a single purpose for each room were the keys to success.

Then her final 'staging' prior to photos and showings was really worth it, as she applied her design knowledge to artfully place items such as plants, vases, books, candles, towels, blankets, pillows, trays, fruit and drinks to elevate the look of the outdoor and indoor spaces.

Jodi was an absolute professional and joy to work with and contributed a huge amount to the success of our sale.

Jodi was instrumental in helping me prepare my home for sale

As a result of her advice, I was able to get myself organized, understand the process, and best of all, my home sold within 3 days of being on the market, at 30K over ask! She was precise, responsive, and having her come to my home on photo day made things much easier.  I would recommend her services without reservation.

We were completely blown away by her recommendations!

We took notes in the Home Staging Report and Checklists packet that Jodi provided. She gave us incredibly useful pointers and suggestions, reminding us that it wasn’t necessary to go out and buy new things - we could simply make use of, repurpose and move around items we already had in our home. We ended up following ALL of her recommendations! Our house truly sparkles and is a home we are now completely proud to showcase! It’s so beautiful we wish we weren’t selling!

I highly recommend her services, you will not be disappointed

I hired Jodi of Kelly Home Designs to guide me in choosing paint colors for my living and dining rooms. This was money well spent! Everyone knows how daunting it can be choosing color schemes... and you get frozen with indecision. Jodi came in, listed to my needs and worked with me to come up with some really perfect color schemes. She was very friendly and super easy to work with. She has experience with older homes and that was a huge plus for me. Colors were chosen and advice given based on my preferences and not what colors were "in" for the season. I also appreciated her non-judgmental demeanor. I've had other consultants in my home and frankly felt judged as if my project was beneath them. NOT the case with Kelly Home Designs.
