Northwest Staging & Redesign

Home staging is the process of preparing a home for sale in order to appeal to a targeted buyer. Its goal is to depersonalize so that buyers can envision living in that home without being distracted by the seller’s personality. The furnishings are placed to show the spaciousness and highlight key focal points. The house switches from being a home into being a product.

Interior Redesign however takes into account the same architectural focal points, while capturing the homeowner’s personality, lifestyle, and their unique treasures. Its goal is to focus on telling the story of the people living there, while giving a polished, coordinated look with items they already own.

We will first schedule a one hour consultation appointment that costs $100.00. This process starts with interviewing you to get a clear understanding of your objectives and lifestyle; to find out what you like and don’t like about your room(s); and to find out the intended purpose for each living space. This is a time to get acquainted with one another and for you to find a level of comfort and security with us. We then do a cursory evaluation of each room and determine our approach based upon the existing furnishings that are in the home. Once completed, we will provide you with an Estimate for what we believe the Redesign services will cost based upon an estimated hourly time frame. We will then schedule an appointment for our team of professionals to return. Depending on the size and scope of the rooms being redesigned, it can take anywhere from two hours to a half a day or even a full day to complete the transformation. We literally “shop” your home while redesigning, and incorporate your treasures along the way. We are happy to work while you are out shopping, at work, or if you prefer to be there and join in the fun – we welcome that as well! The very best part of our job however is seeing our client’s reactions at the big “reveal”. For additional information on our services and fees, please see our “Menu of Services”.

We understand how it may be uncomfortable allowing someone else to come into your personal space and move everything around. We want to assure you that as professionals, we are very mindful of your belongings and will treat them with the utmost respect and never criticize your personal tastes. We take the trust you have given us very seriously, and our main goal is to provide you with an inviting space to come home to. We are fully insured for any damages that may occur.

Sometimes there are fixed items that can't or should not be moved. In such cases, we incorporate them into the Redesign plan. If a particular item can’t be moved on the day of the Redesign, but could be moved later with additional assistance, we will clearly identify for you where an item should ultimately be placed. In some cases, we can move the item temporarily to help you visualize how your finished room will look, and then move it back for you until you can make the arrangements needed to enjoy the change permanently. Items such as grand pianos should always be moved by a professional piano mover. In the case of audio visual equipment, we suggest you contact your cable operators or other service professionals for final hook-up.

We are happy to provide you with Relocation services that work in conjunction with your move. We can come in prior to your packing and assist you with any downsizing and/or purging that you may need. We can help plan how to furnish your new home in advance which will save you time and expense of moving items you no longer need. Once you have completed your move, we will help place your belongings in their new locations. We can assist you with hanging your art, placing your accessories, and adding the final touches that will make your new house… a home!

As with all our services, we request a 50% deposit and signed agreement in order to secure a date on our calendar. Once the project has been completed, we ask for the remaining 50%. We prefer payment via credit card, and accept all major credit cards for your convenience.
