Staging for Resell:

Vacant or

Owner Occupied

This 2 car garage wouldn't allow for even 1 car to be parked inside.  The homeowners found it increasingly difficult to locate or access their belongings. Cost:

Labor + $77. in supplies = $347.

Customized Projects and Pricing

(After all, who doesn't love transparency?)

It all sounds great!  But, how much is it going to cost? Candidly, that's going to depend on a lot of factors, mainly the scope of the project. Such as:  The homeowners' length of decision making process for each item in need of a new resting or storage space. (Does the item get tossed, recycled, re-purposed, donated, gifted, stored...?).  Storage space availability - at or away from your home. Level of homeowner assistance, etc... Labor can be paid for by the hour and/or by the project - even as a combination of the two! 

​

Organizing. De-cluttering. Downsizing:

The hourly rate is $35 to $65 per hour, project scope dependent. If a lot of discussion between resident and labor team is anticipated, or if the project is quite large / very time consuming, we are happy to quote and bill you by the project. 

​

Staging:

Occupied home:  This is a project most likely requiring 'de-cluttering', organizing, some packing, and possibly some decorative enhancements being brought in. Pricing will depend on:

* The size and the level of 'readiness for staging' of your occupied home.

* If / how many enhancements need to be brought in. (Items to be removed prior to close of escrow.)

* The amount and size of furnishings requiring movement, etc. (Most commonly, this is only a consideration with over-sized furnishings.) When a home is relatively clutter-free and fairly organized, on average the process will take 1.5 days at a cost of $565 (includes up front 'to-do report). The service fee can be paid at project completion, at the close of escrow, or a combination of the two.

Note: We also provide re-staging services prior to an Open House at an average cost of $55. per visit.

​

The staging of vacant homes is priced on a case by case basis with the client's budget, the home's architecture, and the needs of the real estate market in mind. In order to reduce the rental fees to our clients, we supply the decorative enhancements. (There may be fees for furniture rental.)

     We are also happy to provide partial home staging. This typically includes the living room, master bedroom, dining area, laundry room, kitchen and bathrooms. And, of course, we suggest you include 'difficult for buyers to define' spaces (such as; large nooks, rooms without closets, converted rooms, overly wide or narrow rooms, etc.).

(Note: Due to the decorative enhancements being provided from our inventory at little or no charge, the cost is typically 30% to 50% lower than our competitors!)

​

Unpacking, organizing and staging for every day living:

Pricing will depend on two major factors; the amount of belongings, and the level of organization of the items being unpacked, organized, arranged and staged.  An average sized 3 bedroom, 2 bath home on average will cost $750. and will take +/- 3 days.

​

Consultation for:  Space organization. Do-it-Yourself (DIY). Staging for every day living:

Up to two hours on-site consultation / evaluation includes detailed written report =  $165. If client chooses to have The Efficient H.O.U.S.E. do some (or all) of the work, a quote will be provided.

​

​

Note:  Third party contractors (cleaners, painters...) may be suggested. You will be billed directly by them.

​

As with all of our services, pricing and billing can be customized.

Simplified staging is a way to reduce cost while still creating impact!

            (As seen in this mountain top owner-occupied home.)

Staging is needed before going on the resell market!
