I have to give a SHOUT OUT TO MY TEAM MEMBERS on this one! On Monday morning myself and my assistants Al and Andrew showed up at this home and began the tedious task of removing wallpaper. My fabulous moving company, All Jersey Movers, were there packing, decluttering and putting the many pieces of furniture I asked be removed, to their storage unit. Tuesday, my painters showed up and Sunday, the best flooring company around, headed up by Michael Vasko installed the hardwood flooring. Yes I said Sunday, and they stayed until it was COMPLETE and the house was ready for it's photo shoot on Monday afternoon. This meant them staying until 10:30 that evening. Now THAT'S A TEAM YOU CAN COUNT ON EVERYTIME...Here are the fabulous results
ENTRY FOYER BEFORE...Long, dark and dated. Not a very good first impression
ENTRY FOYER AFTER...WOW! The staircase is FABULOUS! Always was, but the busy hallway distracted buyers from seeing anything else
DINING ROOM BEFORE...The room seemed more like a library than a formal dining room.
DINING ROOM AFTER...SO MUCH LARGER AND CHEERFUL, YET ELEGANT
KITCHEN BEFORE...Too many things distracted buyers from seeing the granite counters
KITCHEN AFTER...Once the wallpaper, lighting, furniture and decorative items were removed, the granite counters now become the STAR of this kitchen
SMALL HALL BATH BEFORE...Okay it has gray fixtures, but the pink wallpaper DID NOT HELP!
SMALL BATH AFTER...still the gray fixtures, but fresh, clean and updated feel
THE MASTER BEDROOM WAS LARGE BUT TOO MANY DISTRACTIONS KEPT BUYERS FROM SEEING THE SPACE
MASTER BEDROOM AFTER...REMINDS YOU OF A RELAXING WEEKEND AWAY AT A FABULOUS BED AND BREAKFAST
THE GUEST ROOM WAS ACTUALLY MY FAVORITE TRANSFORMATION...BEFORE IT WAS JUST WAAAAY TOO BUSY
GUEST ROOM AFTER....BUYERS UNPACK YOUR BAGS YOU ARE HOME!
THE FAMILY ROOM APPEARED SMALL
FAMILY AFTER...Once the large entertainment center was removed along with replacing the rugs with hardwood flooring, the room is now large, welcoming and updated
THIS FABULOUS HOUSE WAS BEING HIDDEN BEHIND MY WONDERFUL CLIENTS (WHOM WE LOVED) PERSONAL BELONGINGS. BUYERS COULD NOT SEE THE BEAUTY THIS HOUSE HAD TO OFFER. PRIOR TO THE THE RENOVATIONS AND STAGINGS, THERE WERE ONLY TWO SHOWINGS ON THE HOUSE. THE REALTOR COULD NOT GET BUYERS THROUGH THE DOOR.

LR BEFORE....
The clients personal belongings combined with poor furniture arrangement did nothing to enhance the selling features of this home.
LR AFTER..Now this space welcomes buyers in
The Kitchen is opposite this open LR and together they now make a GREAT FIRST IMPRESSION! My team had been at the home one week prior to staging and painted the kitchen walls which were a dark green color. Now the cabinets are the STAR of the room!
Dressing up your Master Bedroom is as simple as crisp, white bedding with a punch of color carried throughout..OKAY maybe the dog should not be on the bed, but SHE REFUSED TO MOVE!
MBR BEFORE
MBR AFTER
Girl's Rooms are usually filled with posters and paraphernalia that screams THIS IS MY SPACE!
When selling your home you need to stage so that ANY LITTLE GIRL will want to call this HER SPACE
BASEMENTS SHOULD NOT BE FOR STORAGE ONLY. THEY ADD VALUABLE SQUARE FOOTAGE TO YOUR HOME AND NEED TO BE STAGED TO SHOW BUYERS HOW THE SPACE CAN BE USED.

Today we staged a lovely home in Newark, NJ. When the sellers first called me, they were in the middle of doing many extensive renovations of the home. My client thought that she may want to stage the property herself and she actually called rental companies and had received quotes based on the items she thought she would need.
When I did my consultation, I found many key items in her basement and then ONLY ORDERED pieces that would compliment their furnishings and home. I ACTUALLY WAS ABLE TO SAVE THEM MONEY AND GET MORE ITEMS FOR THEM.
LR BEFORE: A long and narrow room leaves buyers wondering how to set up their furniture for intimate conversation
LR AFTER....I found this couch and area rug in their basement. The client had the fabulous piece of artwork which tied the whole color scheme together. I only needed to order accent chairs, table and lamps. My accessories mixed with the clients accessories completed the look
The KITCHEN BEFORE....The clients had done a beautiful job on renovating the kitchen, it just needed some pizazz..
Red will do it EVERYTIME..
The Parsons Chairs were also in their basement.
The Master Bedroom came to life when we found the beautiful wrought iron headboard and oriental screen. The client also had a great wicker rocker and decorative trunks in the basement, all we needed to bring in was bedding, nightstands, lamps and accessories to complete the master retreat.
If you think that you cannot afford the services of a Home Staging Professional, think again..by unlocking the HIDDEN TREASURES IN YOUR HOME, we will actually save you TIME AND MONEY.
Staging your house to sell is more affordable than you think. Call on The Team of ReStyled to Sell at 732-995-3425 to schedule your initial in home consultation. Together we are changing the way buyers view homes.
When the Team of ReStyled to Sell is called on a Home Staging Consultation the first thing that we look at is HOW CAN WE MAKE THEIR HOUSE COME ALIVE BY USING THEIR ITEMS...That is the most fun that we have as we search diligently through basements, closets and garages. Here is what we came up with on a house we staged this weekend.
The clients had some vacant rooms that they were looking to stage. They opted to purchase some of the larger items like couch and chairs for living room. The other items were either purchased by me for a minimal fee or we found them around their home.
The Living Room Before had no appeal to a buyer as they entered the front door. The client purchased the Sofa, Chair and Lamps, while the other items were taken from other parts of the house
The Dining Room Before lacked drama. The client purchased the tablecloth and centerpiece. Everything else was found throughout the house.
The white curtains were removed to showcase the beautiful windows. In the after angle you cannot see that but I wanted to show you the view now from entering the home.
The Kitchen was beautiful, but appeared cluttered and cold. By adding color, swapping out chairs, table and artwork (also found from around the house) the room appears much warmer and inviting.
KITCHEN AFTER...
The Family Room presented a challenge as the clients had a large TV and couch, winding staircase, and a curved wall of windows...
FR BEFORE did not highlight any of the home's selling features.....
FAMILY ROOM AFTER....Did you notice the fireplace before??
The first part to selling any home is getting people in the front door to see it. WHICH PHOTOS WOULD HAVE MADE YOU CURIOUS ENOUGH TO COME SEE THIS HOME??
Call on the Team of ReStyled to Sell Home Staging Experts @ 732-995-3425, before you list your house for sale. Together we are changing the way buyers view homes.
Well when the walls are bare and flooring is not in you cannot stage the house. So how do you show buyers how beautiful the space can be?? SIMPLE, DRAW IT OUT FOR ALL TO SEE!
ReStyled to Sell Home Staging Experts are the only staging company in NJ that offers Design Illustration.
My assistant and design specialist, Al Iacono, was called in to consult on this home which was being sold PRE CONSTRUCTION. The builder has all his design elements chosen but to date none of them have been installed. He gave Al all the details and colors and Al put together the following for him.
This is what a buyer has been looking at. Would you buy this home?
From this picture it is clear to see that this house is going to be difficult to see because VERY FEW BUYERS will actually be able to envision what this space can be. CAN YOU??
Well maybe this will help? We are getting warmer....and YET...
LOOK AT THE FINAL ILLUSTRATION...This illustration LEAVES NOTHING UP TO BUYER, but clearly lays out the builders plan for all to see
From the tiniest detail, Al was able to bring the builders kitchen to life. Notice the mosaic tile behind the range. The pendant lighting and hardwood flooring are just some of the details that are displayed fabulously in this illustration. Granite countertops help buyers imagine the wonderful evenings of preparing meals for loved ones.
This fabulous drawing will now be displayed in the empty space for all to see. The realtor no longer has to explain to buyers that the counter will be here and the hardwood flooring and granite counters will be this color. The buyer can now see it all!
The Team of ReStyled to Sell Home Staging Experts has always advised builders NOT TO SELL THEIR HOMES WITHOUT STAGING THEM. We have helped many builders stage their vacant properties and saw them receive offers very quickly.
The worst thing a builder can do is to try to sell a vacant property. BUT NEVER SELL PRE-CONSTRUCTION HOMES without giving the buyer some kind of vision.
DESIGN ILLUSTRATIONS takes STAGING to the next level, by revealing your homes hidden potential. Please visit our website at www.restyledtosell.com and click on DESIGN ILLUSTRATIONS to view some additional projects that Al has helped clients with. Please note that DESIGN ILLUSTRATION is for the occupied home as well.

I cannot say enough about my experience with Restyled to Sell. My house was on the
market for a year before my realtor recommended Phyllis to come and help. She and her husband,
Mike, came in and knew exactly what buyers were looking for. They did not come in and just
decorate, as I had originally thought. They surveyed my house and found any "issues" buyers
would have. Phyllis and Mike did not cover anything up, which would cause problems in the house
inspection. They fixed everything the right way so our buyer would be able to move right in. After
making these repairs, they repainted with beautiful colors and very simply decorated certain rooms
making the whole house look absolutely incredible. We put the house back on the market and had
6 written offers within 4 days, all well above asking price! Our inspection was basically flawless
because any problems had been taken care of. Furthermore, Phyllis was very sympathetic to the fact
that we had two mortgages and did not want to pour money into our vacant house. She worked
within our budget, was not pushy about anything and it was worth every dime. We agreed to all
proposed repairs and ideas and we are confident that is the reason we sold so quickly.
Restyled to Sell was the best decision we made regarding our house and we wished we made this
decision 6 months earlier. I would recommend Restyled to Sell to anyone selling a house!

Dear Phyllis
Thanks for your expertise. I really believe it helped sell the house. We had nothing but compliments
on the house and how it looked decorated.

I cannot thank you enough for how you helped me. I had completely redone my mother's home and
listed it. Everything was brand new and yet no offers. I asked about staging the home with the
realtor and was told it did not matter. Ha, it sat for 6 months with no offers. As the listing expired
I gratefully found you. You came so quickly and staged the home beautifully. You were so easy to
work with. I signed with a new agent you had suggested and within the first 3 hours I had a
contract. For all those people who are on a fence wondering if staging could help, all I can say is
call Phyllis Pafumi of Restyled to Sell, and close on your house now! If I had found you earlier I
would have saved thousands in carrying costs and interest. The most cost effective thing I did was
to find you. You made a believer out of me and many realtors too.
Thank you, thank you, thank you

Hi Phyllis,
Our home sat on the market for 9 months with no offers and the day we left for Greece,
(4 days after staging) while in the airport, we received a phone call from our realtor that we had
an offer. Thanks again,
Eddy & Nancy

Dear Phyllis
When people try to sell their house they really have no clue as to what they're doing.
I for one knew my house needed to look better, but didn't really know how to achieve that goal.
Then my agent asked if I'd be interested in hiring someone to "stage" my house. Sure builders hire
someone to stage model homes, but it seemed like nothing more than an added expense.
In reality, hiring you wasn't an expense, it was an investment! Staging made the sale of my house
possible!
I thank you for all the hard work you put into my house. You treated me as if I were your only client
and never once asked for anything more than the original price you quoted. Because of your work,
I was able to get a price greater than what I had originally asked for. Thus, proving the money spent
was an investment not just another expense. Thanks again.
