I'm so glad I called in the pros instead of winging it myself. They walked through the space, asked smart questions about my cooking habits and daily routines, and came up with a layout that actually makes sense. Pots and pans exactly where I reach for them, a pantry system that keeps everything visible, drawers that don't turn into junk catch-alls. It's the kind of organization you don't realize you need until you have it. On top of the great work, they were easy to communicate with and respected my timeline. I'd absolutely book them again for another space in my house.

There was no way we could have unpacked and organized our kitchen and bathrooms over the next few weeks, which is what their team excelled to do in less than a day. Mackenzie was very responsive starting from original quote to appointment day. Because of this they came fully prepared and we feel every minute they used here was optimized to the fullest. It's our first time using this kind of service and Mackenzie, Chloe, Brittany, Mary and Melanie have officially spoiled us for all moves to come. Our home brings us so much joy now.

I cannot recommend Sizzle Staging enough!…read more Sizzle transformed my 100+ year old condo into a stunning and inviting space that attracted multiple offers above list price. Their attention to detail and eye for design completely changed the feel of the rooms, making them appear larger and more functional. SN: As an empty unit, many loved it but commented the rooms were too small. So after a month as an empty unit, it was staged. When I saw it, I seriously contemplated moving back in. The team at Sizzle Staging was incredibly responsive, organized, punctual, and professional throughout the entire process. Their pricing was competitive and the results were worth every penny. I was so impressed with the final product that I actually wanted to move back into my own condo! I highly recommend Phil and I would not hesitate to work with them again in the future.

My real estate agent's firm highly recommended Phoenix Rising Home Staging for luxury condo units…read more So, I requested this company and another to come out and sell me their ideas/terms/prices. Both companies work with ultra-high end real estate, and have designers on hand to attractively style the home with furnishings. I was particularly partial to Phoenix because of Hannah. While the prices of both companies were comparable, the contractual terms were less favorable with Phoenix; however, I really liked Hannah. She has an art background, and does design for a living. She was impressed by the art in my unit, and knew a good deal about quite a number of them (impressive!). I had to commit to 5months of rent for Phoenix's furniture, at about $2200/month, even knowing my unit would sell in a month or so. 2 of the 3 bedrooms were staged, along with the public rooms. The alternative high-end staging company had a one month commitment of $5K, with each subsequent month being prorated by day (@ $2K/month). This alternative company didn't have Hannah, though, and her design eye. I took the bite and committed to Phoenix knowing my gorgeous unit would sell in a month (it did!), and I am glad I did. Thank you Phoenix Rising, and Hannah!

One of your employees / partners who says his cousin works at your warehouse, Wilbert Rodriquez,…read morelied and scammed me of $2,700 of rental income, leaving my luxury condo unit damaged and a mess and not paying his February rent on purpose while I actually was on an international trip! He is a liar and thief who uses your company to scam and convince people to let him live there rent free and bring your furniture to their properties! To gain their trust! He had occupied my condo with your furniture, then left my condo damaged! I actually allowed him to buy a "house for his family" without credit as a favor and he used my kindness to financially abuse me and my own new business income! Instead of kindly telling me he couldn't pay before I traveled so I could have my rental ad up for my OWN marketing! We are now at a risk of losing $5500 because he cannot MAKE honest decisions! Based on this type of lying and behavior for your employees, I give you a ONE STAR for quality of talent and how they use their "employment" to secure rental properties then deplete the owner's finances! I will ONLY remove this post once he has paid me the FULL amount of missing income he stole from me! If this is the kind of business you operate, a family of thieves shame on you!

Linda recently staged our home for sale. It was amazing to see the transformation of our home with…read morethe touches and changes she brought in. Me and my husband thought, "Why didn't we do such-and-such change to the house before?" about many of the changes she made. During her initial walk-through, she noted some changes she would make based on how a buyer would think about certain things--things I have not and would never even have thought about! Our home received eight offers and quickly went under contract after the first weekend of showings. I have no doubt that the home showed so well due in part to the wonderful touches that Linda made. I would highly recommend anyone selling their home to get in touch with her!
