What's included

Everything you need for one flat, transparent fee.

Every staging engagement includes the same baseline. We scope the room count and inventory size to the listing during our walkthrough.

On-site consultation

Walkthrough with the agent or seller, notes on each room, and a written staging plan within 48 hours.

Full furniture rental

From our curated inventory of warm, editorial pieces — no flat-pack-and-rental-art formula.

Textiles, lighting, accessories

Layered, not decorator-staged. Every surface photographs well and reads as lived-in, not merchandised.

Professional install + style

Our team stages the home in a single day, photo-ready. We stay until it's right.

Listing-duration rental

Staged pieces remain in the home through the listing period. Standard term is 60 days with month-to-month after.

Coordinated de-stage

We pull everything out within two business days of the closing — zero logistics for you or your agent.

How we work

Five steps, start to close.

Our process is the same whether we're staging an 1,800 sqft bungalow or a 4,200 sqft family home. What changes is the inventory we pull, not how we work.

01

Walkthrough

60-minute visit. We look at the home, talk about the buyer, and identify the rooms that need the most attention.

02

Proposal

Written staging plan and flat-fee quote within 48 hours. No line-item furniture spreadsheets.

03

Install

One day. Our team handles delivery, furniture placement, styling, and the final walk.

04

Listing period

Pieces stay through the listing. If anything needs touch-up before showings, we come back.

05

De-stage

Once you've closed, we pull the inventory within two business days. Clean exit.

Frequently asked

Questions we hear most.

How much does staging cost?

Every listing is different, so we quote per home. Fees depend on square footage, room count, and whether the home is vacant or occupied. Submit a quote request and we'll send a proposal within 48 hours — no pressure, no lock-in.

How far in advance should we book?

Two to three weeks before photography is ideal. For peak listing seasons in the Triangle (March–June, September–October), we recommend booking four to six weeks out. We'll always try to fit last-minute listings, but can't promise same-week installs.

Do you stage occupied homes?

Yes. For occupied listings we edit, restyle, and supplement — working with the homeowner's existing pieces and adding from our inventory where needed. Great for homes that photograph as 'lived in' rather than 'listed.'

What's the rental term?

Our standard term is 60 days from install, month-to-month after that. 90%+ of Triangle homes go under contract inside 60 days, so most stagings never roll.

What areas do you serve?

Durham, Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Cary, Morrisville, Hillsborough, Pittsboro, Apex, and surrounding communities. We have city-specific guides for our four busiest markets — see the section below. If you're staging elsewhere in North Carolina, ask — we travel for the right project.

What if something gets damaged during the listing?

Inventory is insured through our business policy. Minor issues — scratches on a coffee table, a stained throw pillow — we handle at no cost. Anything beyond that, we'll walk through together before the closing.
