Savvy Redesigns takes the guesswork out of what needs to be done in order to get a house ready for the market. Since every house is unique and homeowners’ needs differ, a range of services is offered. Many homeowners are under the impression that staging their home will be expensive and not necessary. Staging services do not have to be expensive and are always less than a price reduction. In addition, a staged home gives an owner a competitive edge over other houses on the market. Savvy Redesigns will do as little or as much depending on the homeowner’s skills, time and budget.

 

 

 

 

It is important to remember that when you are selling your home, you want potential buyers to feel comfortable and be able to visualize living in your home.
To do that, they need to remember the space ­ NOT your personal belongings.

Staging to Sell Consultation - Occupied House
This is a great place to start for all Home Owners. For the true “do it yourself” homeowner that has the time, skills and desire to complete the recommendations before the house is listed, this provides a detailed list of what to do. For others, it provides a starting place in order to know what they can handle and where help is needed.

This service begins with a brief walk through of both the interior and exterior of the home with the owner to discuss general objectives and scheduling. Working alone, Savvy Redesigns analysis every room, as well as the exterior. A Comprehensive Home Report is prepared with recommendations that will best market the home to a wide range of potential buyers. This is not a generic “to do list” taken from a book or web site. Rather it is a specific checklist prepared for each home in order to showcase the home’s strongest features, downplay those less desirable and create strong curb appeal. Items may include: rearranging and/or storing furniture, accessories & artwork, de-cluttering bookshelves & closets, new paint or flooring suggestions, and repairs which need to be handled prior to showing the home.

A follow up visit is made once the work is complete or near completion to do any final finessing and approve if the house meets the Staging Criteria. Houses that meet the Criteria are advertised on StagedHomes.com at no additional charge.

$250+ Pricing depends on size and contents of house. This includes the initial visit to analysis the home, Comprehensive Home Report preparation, availability by e-mail or telephone for questions, and follow up visit.

Hands-On Staging - Occupied House
This service may be used in conjunction with the Staging to Sell Consultation or by itself. Using proven techniques and design skills, Savvy Redesigns prepares the home for sale. Best for the homeowner that does not have the desire, resources or time to complete the needed projects before the house goes on the market. The most popular service we offer.

Every room is evaluated to determine which features will be highlighted and which to minimize. Working with the homeowner’s existing furnishings, each room is transformed so it appeals to a wide range of buyers. This is accomplished by arranging furniture to maximize flow, use of proper lighting, grouping art work and accessories to add interest, packing items not needed, as well as organizing and de-cluttering where needed. Occasional additional items may be needed. Those items will be noted and the homeowner can decide if they want to purchase them, have us do it or rent items from Savvy Redesigns’ inventory. Houses that meet the Criteria are advertised on StagedHomes.com at no additional charge.

Fees are based on the home’s square footage, number of rooms, and condition. A site visit is made in order to determine pricing prior to the actual staging. If a Consultation is done, an additional site visit is not required. Realtors and investors – contact us about additional marketing and pricing packages available.

The ideal time for Hands-On Staging is after repairs are made. However, we understand that is not always possible. We will leave a detailed plan for each room where repairs may require items to be moved when requested.

Stage to Sell Consultation – Vacant Home
Many times buyers only know what they see, not what the room can be.

Some homeowners believe a vacant house is easier to sell than an occupied one. While the challenges of keeping an occupied home neat and organized are removed, a vacant home can come across as cold and uninviting. Many times potential buyers have a hard time visualizing how their furnishings can fit in the rooms since there is nothing to compare them to.

Savvy Redesigns will evaluate each room, as well as the exterior. A Comprehensive Home Report is prepared with recommendations that will best market the home to a wide range of potential buyers. This is not a generic “to do list” taken from a book or web site. Rather it is a specific checklist prepared for each home in order to showcase the home’s strongest features and downplay those less desirable ones.

$175+ Pricing depends on size of house. This includes the initial visit to analysis the home, Comprehensive Home Report preparation and availability by e-mail or telephone for questions.

Hands-On Staging – Vacant
Many times potential buyers have a hard time visualizing how their furnishings can fit in empty rooms since there is nothing to compare them to.  The goal is to create inviting spaces by showing potential buyers how the rooms can be used, highlighting strong features throughout the house, as well as creating strong curb appeal.

Savvy Redesigns first meets with the client to assess needs, furnishings the owner may have available for use and the budget. The exterior and interior of the home is then evaluated to determine which rooms need to be staged. It is not always necessary to fully stage every room in a house and those options will be presented to the client.  A bid is prepared for staging services and recommendations for furnishings

Staged homes that meet the staging criteria will be advertised on StagedHomes.com at no additional charge.

Bids are free.
Staging services and rentals are based on the size of and needs of the house.

Color Consultation - Occupied and Vacant
This service is perfect for the home owner that is planning on selling their home in the next year or so, yet not quite ready for fully preparing the house for the market.

Savvy Redesigns offers Color Consultations for both the exterior and interior of your home.  Painting is one the least expensive updates with the most impact a home owner can do.  A visit to the property is made to evaluate colors best suited based on finishes, lighting, surrounding homes (for exterior) and other items unique to the home. A list of color options are made which list the manufacturer, color numbers and names. 

$50+ depending on number of interior rooms and/or if for exterior.
