It amazes me, but I still hear comments from individuals who do not believe that staging can work for them. My response: "How do you know if you never try?"
If at the end you still don't believe staging can work for you, I encourage you to check out this month's FREE Staging offer at the bottom of the page!
These are testimonials from our very own community sharing their experience with home staging. Please read on...
"Jessica, Thanks for your staging tips that you provided during your consulting visit. Just wanted to let you know we sold our house in one day for the full asking price of $236,800. We implemented most of your ideas, from the new "welcome mat", right down to the birch logs in the fireplace." Thanks again, Mike Chmela, Realtor State College
"The list of suggested changes you provided us was daunting at first--so thorough for EVERY room!--but as we went through and cleaned, moved, updated and changed things, we really saw things come together in a fresh new way and wished that we'd had you with us when we were first setting up our home! Overall, our changes cost around $750 and a lot of elbow grease, but netted us a sale in two weeks at 98% of our asking price--well above the average for our area. Thank you!! I've been recommending you to all my friends." Best, Jen Rand, State College
"Hello Jessica, I am still in the office tonight getting caught up on some paperwork and just read your kind email to my seller. You are so sweet. I want you to know how much I appreciate all you have done for them and for the other listings that I have. Again thanks for your kindness and keep up the good work!!!" -Keller Williams Agent
"Many thanks for all of your suggestions. The feedback was very positive. I am certain that your help made a substantial difference in the type of comments made by realtors and potential buyers as they looked at the house." Best wishes in all of your endeavors. Elaine Wickersahm, State College
"Jessica, It was wonderful to hear from you and know that you "checked us out". We tried very hard to make many of your suggestions work. As it turns out, we had a contract on the property after the first showing a day after it was on the market! Rich and I enjoyed our walk through with you and were impressed with the suggestions and recommendations that we would like you to come sometime to our "new" home and help to organize and get the most out of our home. This is such an exciting AND stressful time in our lives. Thank you so much for helping us and aiding in our home sale." With much appreciation, Jolene and Rich Tyrone
"Thanks, Jessica. If all goes well with inspections, my house will belong to another. I mean it when I say I couldn't have done it without you. All best for your coming adventures. I am indeed amazed that the place looks so good--in no small part to your enthusiastic advice. " Paul, State College
You were so helpful in staging our house for sale! I was pretty sure I knew how to stage our house, but you showed us things that I never thought of. The house looks really good now." Ruthie Carlson, Bellefonte "As first time home sellers, we were rather unsure of the required preparation for sale. Jessica offered clear, inexpensive advice on how to best prepare our home for sale. Also, in the potentially hectic and stressful time of having a home on the market, Jessica was easy to discuss our preparations with. Jessica deserves some of the credit that we had 2 offers and our home under contract for sale within 10 days of going on the market. Thank you." -Steve Johnson, State College
"Hi Nina, I want to thank you for getting a buyer for my house so quick. I really appreciated all of your time and hard work you put into this. My house was only on the market for a month and you had a buyer for it. I am so happy. You know how scared I was, you kept telling me to put my trust in you, and I did. I really feel a lot better now.Every time I had a question you always got back to me. You were even here until 9:00PM one night. I also liked the way you explained everything to me "in my language" Ha Ha. When you brought the lady [Jessica Dolan - Room to Breathe] in to rearrange my furniture, [it] really helped sell my home. And also when I was interested in looking at other houses you were right there to get information on them and in no time we were on our way to look at them. I thank you again for all your hard work and effort. I really am going to recommend you to anybody that needs some help. You are a dedicated employee." Gloria P. State College
"Hi Jessica! I meant to email you right after you sent us this plan, but we jumped into working on it right away, and I completely forgot!
Thank you so much for meeting with us and putting this together. I wanted you to know right away...we did just about everything in the plan, and we sold our house last night - after only 3 days on the market! Thank you so much for all of your help. Your suggestions definitely made the place look great, and I'm sure helped to sell it so quickly (and for less than a $1000 under our asking price!).
Thanks again...hope to see you again soon!" Shannon Bishop, Bellefonte
"Dear Jessica, After reading several of your newsletters about staging, I thought it was time I jump on board. In particular, when I first met with Kathy, who was referred to me by one of her neighbors, there was a lot of clutter around. There were many things I knew she needed to do before her home hit the market in order for her to sell at the highest price in the shortest amount of time. I decided to give you a call to meet with Kathy before her home hit the market. You came in and prepared your Sure Sale Plan. You did this quickly. I appreciate that you came when you said you would come and did what you said you would do. Kathy worked on all the items on the list. She spruced up landscaping, replaced the flooring you recommended, repaired items that you suggested, took down posters in her daughter's room, removed furniture that made the rooms crowded, she rented a storage unit, she cleaned and staged as you recommended. She received and offer in just one week! Thank you so much! I will defintely use you again! I wish all my sellers would be as receptive and willing to change as Kathy was! Now Kathy and her family can move quickly into their next home. They are so happy!" Sincerely, Nyssa Smith REALTORĀ® Kissinger, Bigatel & Brower Realtors
