The Finer Stage Makes the most of your time and investment

The Finer Stage helps you make the most profit on your single largest investment— your home— and expertly guides you through this stressful time of transition. After all, company president Traci Sampsell has moved 11 times in 18 years herself!

Whether you are planning to list your home in the next weeks or months, or your home has been on the market for some time, staging is critical in making the most profit.

You may even sell above the initial asking price after staging! In addition to getting the most for your money, the time that your property will be on the market will be decreased. This means less time involved with inconvenient showings.

The Process and Results

During your initial two hour consultation your property will be thoroughly assessed. Based on this assessment, a plan will be developed for getting your home to turn-key condition with a warm and inviting atmosphere. After the consultation you can opt to have The Finer Stage execute as much or as little of the plan as you wish.

If you choose to have The Finer Stage assist you in completing the staging, you will have available to you a variety of resources that will simplify the staging process. Using these resources will make this stressful time go smoothly because The Finer Stage will handle the details.

From start to finish, after an approximate two week period, the result will be a home with it’s best features on display. Home staging builds “You’ve got to see this house!” excitement about your property, and increased traffic of potential buyers who will feel at home in your house.

Remember, it is always more cost-effective to have your home staged than to take your first price cut.

Living Room Staging

Before

After

Prior to staging, this living room contained too much furniture. In addition, the dining room table in close proximity to the sofa and chairs could lead potential buyers to be confused about what the space is actually for and fearful that the house will not contain enough space for their own belongings. By removing the dining table as well as other large furniture and arranging the remaining furniture to make the fire place the focal point, the room is left feeling spacious, orderly and cozy.
 
Kitchen Staging

Before

After

This kitchen counter contained too many appliances and personal items. This situation can lead potential buyers to be unable to imagine the space as their own and fearful that there may not be enough storage. By removing several appliances and items with a personal feel and upgrading the hardware, potential buyers feel that the space is large with a modern edge…a space they can imagine living in.
 
Office Staging

Before

After

This 'spare room' is small and uniquely shaped which made it difficult for the home owner to designate it with a specific purpose. By depersonalizing the space and using items available in the home, the room was easily transformed into a comfortable office with adequate storage. This transformation demonstrates to potential buyers that this difficult space may be used effectively.
