Successful Staging (Gallery)
We love and utilize staging with our clients extensively; it plays a huge role in our success for you!
​
To see what we do for you, check out the properties we've listed and put under contract recently. We work with decorators and stagers to ensure our home are relevant for the current trends.
​
We also provide Virtual Tours for all our homes, to better engage and entice prospective buyers. (Note that after a house closes its virtual tour is only active for 6 months.)
​
The key is to generate excitement and encourage buyers to fall in love with the home before they even step inside. Thus we pay careful attention to all the details from the start. That requires great staging and quality professional photography.
