Staging/Design

“Originally we engaged Erin just to advise us on remodeling; no strings attached. Their suggestions added significant value when it came time to sell. And their staging service was a true differentiator. Our home received 9 offers.”

— Arv Kretz, seller

“Erin came in and worked her magic to stage the house. All the rooms were presented in absolutely the best manner, and it made us feel very proud of our home as it hit the market. We received an offer within 48 hours.”

— Dan and Debi Keen, sellers

HOME STAGING
AT ALL PRICE POINTS

Home staging helps sellers get the highest possible price in any market.

Staging in Marin County typically requires sellers to invest between $5,000 and $20,000. But our clients are in a unique position because Erin McGinnis, in addition to being a Realtor, is an accredited home stager, and she stages all of our listings for a fraction of the retail price. And, you’ll pay nothing until closing! You’ll benefit from Erin’s expertise, which includes more than 15 years of home preparation, ranging from color consultations to project management to the full staging of a vacant house.

We have our own inventory of current furnishings, located in a warehouse right here in Novato. We can supplement what you have, or furnish an entire empty home.

Home staging is the act of preparing and showcasing a house for sale. Professional home stagers apply their knowledge of real estate, home renovations and creative design to attract a buyer.

Preparing a property involves all or part of cleaning, de-cluttering, updating and repairing, while staging is the process of arranging furniture, accessories, art and light.

Another service we provide is helping you, the homeowner, choose improvement projects that will give you a high return on your investment. Maybe you aren’t planning to sell for another year, or five, but you’ll want to choose finishes that appeal not only to you, but to buyers as well.
