What Clients Are Saying About Limelight Home Staging

Limelight Home Staging came out and talked with us about our vision and worked up a design recommendation that we gladly accepted. The result...we have a BEAUTIFULLY furnished gallery that has been so well received. Thanks to Limelight Home Staging our gallery is inviting and comfortable and has been dubbed "The New Heart of Carmel" by Carmel Magazine.

~Mountainsong Galleries, Carmel-By-The-Sea

Thank you so much for your recent staging on my Carmel listing. This home had a difficult floor plan. I had requested another staging company when I first took the listing and the sellers turned them down as being too expensive. You were recommended to me by an agent/friend. You were extremely reasonable in asking price and performed the work almost immediately. We got an offer with a 10 day close of escrow! I will definitely use your services again.

~Judy, Realtor, Carmel, CA

My father's house needed to be sold as quickly as possible in a bad market. Once I met Sarah and saw what she had done in the past, I felt very comfortable with her and confident in her abilities. The end result was that the house sold the FIRST DAY the buyer saw the virtual tour on the internet!

~Carol Quinet, Santa Cruz, Pasatiempo Golfing Community

Sarah Meads of Limelight Home Staging was extremely thorough in her design, meticulously documenting the new layout. Our home looked amazing when she was done, and we received an offer by the end of the second week...which is very unusual in this market. Thank you, Limelight!

~Brenda, Boulder Creek, CA

Not only was your creation fabulous, but your natural design ability provided a welcoming and warm atmosphere for potential buyers to view. It was actually hard to decide to still sell the condo because I loved the transformation so much! Within 2 weeks, 2 offers came in when other homes were sitting on the market for months. The buyer loved the staging so much that they requested some of the items be included in the sale! I am a very happy and satisfied client!

~Christina, Capitola, CA

My property under Sarah Meads' inspiring staging ability was transformed from an average property on the market to an eye opening, well lit, beautifully arranged magnet for home buyers. At a time when properties were staying on the market for months, my staged home had competing offers in a week! We sold soon after for our asking price. Unbelievable. That would have been impossible had Sarah not staged our property.

~Phil, Santa Cruz, CA

Sarah Meads with Limelight Home Staging was very responsive to my request for a staging bid on my Los Gatos listing… she was worth every penny! She was professional, accommodating and worked around a schedule that was tight at best. I am truly grateful for her efforts and I can honestly say that her staging really made the home come alive!

Limelight Home Staging Services

Basic Consultation

A Basic Consultation begins with an overall evaluation of your home and your staging needs. Initially, we will usually take anywhere from 1 1/2 to 3 hrs. to walk through and document the needs of your home. The time investment is dependant on the size of your home. Shortly after, we will provide you with a detailed report which outlines your staging goals and the time frame for completion. The fee for this service varies and is dependant on the square footage of your home and our hourly rate. Once you receive your detailed report, you can then decide on how much – or how little – Limelight Home Staging can support you in implementing the suggested changes.

Staging Services

Once the pre-staging suggestions are implemented, Limelight Home Staging will come and complete the staging project through rearranging your furniture, dressing up and accessorize your rooms with your furniture, adding additional rented furniture and accessories (if needed) and through putting the finishing touches on your home before the open house. The fee for this service will be an all-inclusive flat fee that will cover all the costs associated with the final staging project.

Vacant Home Staging

Empty homes often feel cold, dead, and expose every flaw of the property. When buyers walk through a dry, empty space, they have a hard time envisioning themselves living in it. This experience distances them further from your property and from your asking price. For vacant homes, Limelight Home Staging can put together a staging plan that meets your budget requirements. Furniture rental prices can fluctuate for various reasons. Limelight Home Staging has earned a reputation for coming up with a variety of stylish furniture options that can reduce the furniture rental cost to fit within the client’s budget…without reducing the quality of staging. Tell us your vacant staging budget needs and we will make it work for you, our valued client.

Accessories & Inventory Rentals

Limelight Home Staging has an extensive inventory available to enrich the spaces of you home. Silk plants and accessories will help set the stage for a successful open house.

Redesign

Limelight Home Staging offers the following redesign services which can enhance any living environment:

One Day Makeovers

Limelight Home Staging can transform your home in one day using your own furnishings! Design and shopping services are available as well if you would like to change or supplement your existing décor.

Redesign – Re-create – Re-energize!

We use our expertise to recreate your home. By remixing your furniture and accessories, we can make your home feel new again. In the March 2006 issue of Real Simple Magazine, in an article entitled, “Fix Your Money Leaks” the author suggests an alternative to pricey renovations. He states, “A wiser option is hiring a professional who can give your home an inexpensive makeover. ‘A home stager adds furnishings, decorative touches, and details.’” By adding a few select pieces to “round out” your existing furnishings, we will dramatically reenergize your home for a fraction of the cost usually associated with redecorating!

Move-in Staging and Furniture Placement

Limelight Home Staging has had many clients who have been so pleased with their staging service that they have asked to have their new home staged. We are always happy to set you up in your new home with an excellent staged home look.
