We know that selling your home can be a very exciting time! It is very important when prospective buyers come to see your home for the first time. It takes only a few seconds for a buyer to form their opinion!  Those defining moments can begin the sale process.   Remember: First Impressions are the only impressions!   and Staging provides a great first impression!

 

What is home Staging?  Staging is enhancing and presenting a home in the most appealing way to the largest number of prospective buyers.  The goal of staging is to show a buyer how they can utilize the living spaces in a beautiful, yet practical way.  Most buyers (upwards of 90%) can't visualize, so when you stage it, the buyer will see it! Effective staging satisfies a need for a buyer and... Staging provides the vision!

To Stage or not to Stage...

Staging is a strategic decision that will help to...deflect lower offers, accelerate the sale process and reduce your overall cost of sale.  Staging is a business decision, not a personal one.  If you are considering staging and want to "test" the market to see if your home will sell without staging...don't!

If you already believe that our home would benefit from the staging service process, then do it before you place it on the market.  Why wait a few months paying the extra mortgage payments and costs of ownership. We all know that old adage...We always have time to do it over again, but we never have time to do it right the 1st time.  Time is money and your time and money is the most valuable commodity in this transaction!

 

Staging Fees

Walk through Consultation Service: This service would allow the do-it-yourselfer to consult with Interiors Within Reach and acquire a recommendation list only, thereby allowing the home sellers to perform the work themselves.

Walk through Consultation Fees of $125.00 per hour would be applicable.  A four (4) hour minimum would apply for this service only. A detailed report would be provided to the home seller listing our recommendations.  Most reports can be completed in four - five hours.  We will visit the property and provide a quote at no charge!

 

Staging Vacant Homes...Yes, we stage vacant homes by infusing the home with the necessary furnishings to enhance the features of the home.  Empty rooms actually appear smaller than those furnished.  Ideally, you want buyers to feel the home's spaciousness and with the proper furniture and placement, it will! 

Staging Occupied Homes...When we stage an occupied home, we have more options at our disposal in that we are able to use all or a portion of the existing furnishings.  If the home has adequate furnishings we can approach the staging thru a combination of our Staging Service and Redesign Process.  This takes less time and will, therefore, be more cost efficient.  We find that most home sellers have sufficient furnishings to stage successfully.  (Pricing is bid based on each home's individual needs.)
 

Adding Furnishings & Accessories to the Occupied Home...Yes, we can infuse the home with additional furnishings to complete the staging.  We will recommend completing the home with additional  or alternative furnishings but, only when needed.

Furniture Purchase Option...Yes we can negotiate a current market purchase price with your buyers should they have this interest.  In today's times, homeowners are so busy with their businesses and lives that it makes sense for a buyer to buy a home "move-in ready". And...who wouldn't want to buy a home that is professionally decorated?  Think about the added value of this service for your buyer!

TESTIMONIALS

Dear Debbie, I wanted to thank you so much for helping me with the sale of my listing.  I can't emphasize how pleased the seller and I were with your work.  It definitely accomplished our goal of getting her place sold in less than a month since it went on the market in November/07.  Being in a tough market with lots of inventory, we knew we had to do something different to get the listing sold.  My seller had already bought another place and was very anxious about selling her home.   There were 14 other like properties that had been on the market anywhere from 30 - 180 days and despite continuous price reductions, were not selling.   After interviewing with other staging companies, she believed that you were the right person for the job.  You certainly proved her right and delivered everything and more than you promised!   Simply put, you were honest, caring and had all the necessary resources to get the job done and more importantly I feel you are very passionate about your job...therefore, you deliver excellent results.  I will definitely recomend you to all the other agents that I work with and look forward to using your services with other listings.  Please feel free to have any potential clients contact me if they have any questions in regards to your services.  Good luck in everything you do!                    Flunda Youil, Evergreen Realty, Irvine

                                              

 Dear Debbie, We wanted to thank you for the outstanding job that you did at our home! We just love it!  We really appreciated your efficiency!  I have to say that I was a bit skeptical in the beginning-we thought it would take quite some time...You proved us to be wrong!  We went to work one day and came home to a different house...amazing!  We have much respect and appreciation for the talents you hold!  We look forward to working with you again and again!                                             
Best Regards, The Fleckensteins

Interiors Within Reach , I own an ocean view duplex in Dana Point & invested time & money in the renovation in preparation of a quick sale. The remodel turned out fine, but overall it was a bit too neutral without furnishings.  I have always believed in staging a property wherever possible & the duplex was a prime candidate for a discriminating & talented staging company to work some magic.  After interviewing several staging groups it was clear that Interiors Within Reach and more specificially, Debbie Muccillo, was the obvious choice for the job.  Deb walked in and immediately established herself as a design professional with extensive knowledge, creative ideas and a vision.  I felt very comfortable with Deb & quickly learned she communicates effectively, (and with enthusiasm) outlined the entire staging process & set my expectations as to the final results.  Her team showed a true committment to excellence & displayed the necessary attention to detail to make this transformation successful.  True to her word, Deb completed the job on schedule & all I could say was WOW!  The duplex looked so good that I had to do a double take to make sure I was in the right place!  In the first week on the market I had over 80 agents preview the property.  Their reaction was overwhelming & their positive, enthusiastic comments reinforced my decision that Interiors Within Reach was the right choice.  As an added perk and valued added service, Deb provided professional "post staging" photographs to enhance my MLS media listing.  Deb's passion & pride for a job well done puts her in a class of her own.  Her business acumen is second to none & I wholeheartedly recommend Deb and Interiors Within Reach for any staging project that requires only the best!  There is no doubt I will use them again for future listings & have no doubts the results will be equally impressive!                           Mike Didelot, Tarbell Realtors
