As a professional Los Angeles Home Stager, it is always a pleasure to work with clients who take your advice and roll with it! Such was the case with a recent listing in Cheviot Hills. The couple living in the home were retiring and moving to Palm Springs, so they wanted to sell their beautiful Spanish style home…quickly!
The agent, Randy Troup of Coldwell Banker Brentwood West, often hires me to do Staging Consultation reports for his sellers. I preview the property and spend a couple of hours giving the sellers detailed recommendations of low-cost things they can do to (using mostly what they already have in the home) to Stage their property for sale.
I met with this lovely couple and gave them quite a list! Their home was beautiful to begin with, but there were several things I recommended they do in order to enhance its appeal to buyers.

I recently got a call to Stage a “cute little bungalow” in Hollywood. Whenever you hear those 3 words together in LA you have to know this is going to be a tiny place. But I was completely unprepared for just how small this one was! At 500 square feet this is now officially the smallest home I’ve ever Staged!

Spring is my absolute favorite time of year in LA because the jacarandas are blooming, showcasing their gorgeous purple flowers all over town. I just love walking down streets like this one in my neighborhood at this time of year.
Towards the end of the blooming season, however, trees tend to get sparser and most of those purple blooms end up on the lawns and driveways of their owners. In fact today on my morning walk I spotted many a lawn completely covered with fallen flowers. Loving the jacaranda as I do, I happen to think of this carpet of purple on the lawn as beautiful, though perhaps a bit melancholy as it marks the end of my favorite season. However, today I began to think about it from a home buyer’s perspective.

Since we have been so busy Staging lately, I was remiss in posting about our latest project - a lovely condo in West LA that we Staged on May 15th. Blogging about it was on my “to-do” list for today, but when I checked my email this morning I got the following email from the Realtor:
“I am happy to tell you that I got an accepted offer on the Pelham condo in the first week. It’s in escrow & inspection and I’m looking for a backup offer.”
It must have been fate that I hadn’t yet blogged about this project, because what better news to share than this Staging Success Story! It’s one for the record books.

There’s nothing I enjoy more than Staging close to home! If you happen to forget something, it’s just a short drive to storage, and you’re never stuck in traffic on the way home. So I was thrilled when Stage to Sell was hired to Stage a model unit for a beautiful new townhome development in my very own Culver City!
When I first previewed this property, my biggest concern was the size of the 2 main living spaces. The townhome had both a formal living room and a family room on the main level, but both rooms felt very small, especially without furniture in them.
Click here to see how we solved these problems and created a beautiful Model Home that felt open and spacious to buyers!

Want to sell your Los Angeles home fast and for a great price? Stage it with Stage to Sell.
"Stage to Sell is the third staging company that I've used over the years, and the third time is the charm in this case. Annie, the owner, has won me over with several factors: attention to detail, follow-through and the overall quality of her work. Stage to Sell is now the only staging referral I give to selling clients when taking a new listing. Her company's efforts have clearly helped our mutual clients sell faster and get better prices. Plain condos and houses are transformed into warm and inviting homes that people want to buy right away."
- Chris Gordon Clark, Keller Williams Santa Monica
"Although I was reluctant at first to consent to hiring a stager to sell our property, I am so glad that I did. Annie blew me away with her suggestions. The best part was that she worked with what we already have, so there is no need to buy anything. I thought her suggestions might be obvious, but they weren't -- they were subtle changes that make a huge impact. I am so eager to implement her brilliant suggestions. Not only am I glad I hired Annie to stage our house to sell, I want to hire her to advise me when we move to our new home.
-Courtney Alban, Los Feliz
"Annie’s staging of my project was absolutely spot-on. She understood the buyer mentality so well that we had all three staged units in escrow within 2 months, after having had them on the market for over 7!"
- Dana Ehrlich, Keller Williams Santa Monica
"Your staging of 1533 18th Street meets and exceeds my highest expectations based on my experiences with almost all of your competition. Not only is the installation spectacular - the price, timing and level of professionalism raises the bar for your competition. Thanks for being extraordinary!"
- Anthony Hitt, Sotheby's International Realty
"Wow what a difference! My sellers and I are so impressed with how wonderful the house looks. It's a million times better and has surpassed all of our expectations. I will definitely use your services again and again. Thank you for coming on such short notice and doing a top notch job. Fantastic!"
- Vicky Mirisch, Pinnacle Estate Properties
"Annie just staged one of my listings that had been empty for almost two months. We had at least 40 buyers through with NOT ONE offer. She staged on Friday. Within 4 DAYS we had two offers!!!"
- Dana Ehrlich, Keller Williams
"Wow! It looks great...The photographer was ready to buy it! Thank you for putting all my doubts to rest. I was hesitant to spend the money on staging but you’ve proved that it is a must. Thank you very much!"
- Melissa Macfadyen, Keller Williams
"I just want to thank you for being so awesome and responsive to my client and me. That home was a mess and you made it look livable. You are the best and I am glad to be in business with you. You are truly one of the best stagers out there!"
- Thomas Khammar, Keller Williams
"I hired Annie to help me stage a property which had been on the market for 7 months with another agent, and had undergone $300,000 in price reductions over the course of the listing. I re-listed the property with a fresh pricing strategy and staged it before we shot any photos or showed the property. We had an accepted offer within 2 weeks. My clients were absolutely thrilled with Annie's practical and economical advice."
- Dana Ehrlich, Keller Williams
"Annie is wonderful and does a great job! You should consider using her to stage your house regardless of whether you are looking to sell or not. I have received so many compliments on the work she did on my listing!"
- Revi Mendelsohn, Coldwell Banker
"My condo had previously been on the market for one month with little interest and no offers...When I first saw my condo after it had been staged, I was amazed...The previously cramped rooms looked light and bright with the furniture and tasteful, contemporary accessories that Annie selected. The house looked as if it had been professionally decorated...At the open house the response was great. Within a week we had multiple offers and ended up accepting one for $21,000 over asking price. I was thrilled!"
- Cherry Norris, Brentwood
"Well, I think staging works. While we were putting up the for sale sign Tuesday, a couple came through. They loved it and made an offer the next day. After a few counter offers, we sold it today. So we’re claiming it sold in 20 hours. They want a 3 week escrow, but we’re game, and of course we still have to get through all the formalities. Anyway, thanks for all your help!"
- Dennis Newell, Murietta
"I cannot thank you enough for doing the staging for my condo...I had so many compliments from both friends and potential buyers. Your ideas were very creative and really helped to enhance the appeal of each room. My condo looked like a model home. I highly recommend you for anyone considering selling their home. It was well worth the money. I firmly believe the staging helped me maximize the selling value of my condo."
- Kim Itakura, Culver City
"Thank you again for your work. I barely have sufficient verbal skills to express how happy I am with the transformation of the house, and the enormous increase in its market value."
- Holly Browde, Beverly Hills
"I wanted to thank you again for the fantastic job you did in staging the condo in Marina Del Rey. I especially appreciated your professionalism, and going out of your way to make things happen within our time frame."
- Jake Ptasnik, Marina del Rey
"Thanks again for what I'm convinced resulted in the sale of my house!!"
- Marla McGuire, Reseda
"You did such an amazing job, Annie. What a difference you made, not only with the pieces you brought, but the recommendations you made to update/change/prepare for your Staging. Everything looks amazing! Thanks again!"
- Dian Reid, Van Nuys
"The place looks awesome!!! I can’t wait to take pics tomorrow...I’m so happy! Big difference!! You are a great resource!"
- Lorin Ruttenberg, Keller Williams
