Fees:

A Property Staging Consultation costs $195.  This includes an in-depth property interview with the seller, an extensive report of recommendations, and a bid proposal for hands-on staging.  If painting is needed, a color consultation is included.

Virtual Property Staging Consultations are also available.  Contact me for details if you are outside the Greater Nashville area.

Speed Staging is only for those with up-to-date furnishings and decor items already in the home.  For $260, 2 Stagers spend 2 hours staging your home at break-neck speed, using only what the homeowner already has to get a home ready for sale instantly.  If updated paint colors are required, a Color Consultation is also included.

Full-on Staging with props is charged at $100 per hour for 2 stagers to rearrange furniture, identify architectural focal points, hang artwork, and create vignettes.  Goals include making the space appear as large and light as possible, correcting any perceived design flaws, drawing attention to the positive aspects of the property, downplaying the negative aspects of the property, and creating emotional attachments for prospective buyers.  The Decorologist has an expansive inventory of on-trend staging props including artwork, lighting, bedding, pillows, dishes, and decorative accessories.  The hourly staging rate also includes staging props (as much as needed) that will be hand-picked to best compliment and enhance your specific space at no extra cost for the first month.  In addition, professional quality photography of the home is included and provided to the Realtor and/or homeowner to use on MLS and on any marketing material.   Most homes can be fully staged in 4 to 6 hours.
