Home Staging

For real estate agents

I work with sellers to know how to prepare their homes for sale.

What’s important to do and what’s not? How do they make their home look its best online? It’s all here. We will discuss every area of the home during our 90 minutes together. (This can be done virtually!) You do not need to be there: you can be out selling homes!

Most homes don’t need more stuff, they need less!

I find most homes do not need staging items in order to sell: they need the homeowners’ belongings curated and carefully arranged to create eye-catching photos for the MLS. I do not stock furniture or accessories.

Need a home ready in a hurry?

My assistant and I roll up our sleeves and move furniture, art, accessories, streamlining as we go to get a home ready for photos. Most homes require 2 to 5 hours to complete. Great for clients who are physically unable to do the work.

Buyers love a good referral

I love helping buyers make their new houses feel like home. Please send them my way and they will remember you forever! (A gift certificate makes a great gift!)

Home staging FAQ’s

Do you cover all of DFW?

My staging consultation with sellers is $399 for 60 to 90 minutes, for clients within 20 minutes of Dallas-Ft. Worth Airport. I can go further, but travel fees may apply.

Do you stage empty houses?

I do not stage empty houses as I do not stock furniture or accessories for staging.

Kind words

"I am a Realtor in the Southlake area and I consider Ann to be my 'secret weapon' for preparing homes for sale! It is so important to know that I can suggest a professional interior designer like Ann to consult with my clients, giving them vision and practical advice to prepare them for home marketing. Ann is very organized and professional during her in-home consultations and combined with an approachable and energetic personality, it's a win! Homeowners appreciate her "before and after" portfolio on her iPad, her creativity and resources! She is a proven success, and for me, I have closed my listed properties quicker, meaning highest possible price when my homes are staged and prepared by Ann! Ann has "Just The Thing" whether it's a spruce-up for selling a home, freshening up tired decor, or a larger, overall design project including custom drapes and furnishings!"

"After months of having our home listed with no offers, we engaged Ann to give us recommendations on strategic updates that would freshen the look and bring in buyers. Ann respected our budget, prioritized her suggestions and connected us with service providers. We followed her guidance and the first week we relisted our home, we got a great offer and closed six weeks later. We highly recommend Ann as an interior design and home staging partner."

"I hired Ann to stage a home for my clients. They needed assistance getting their home ready to go on the market. She did a fantastic job, and was very efficient, working very quickly. Thanks to her great eye, the house showed wonderful and we received 6 offers the first weekend! I would definitely recommend her for staging, decorating or any other home related project!"

"I hired Ann to stage our home. During her 2 hour consultation we accomplished far more than I thought possible and when she left I had a clear game plan. Thanks to Ann our home will photograph well and look its best for showings. Ann gets my highest recommendation. Thanks Ann!"
