We moved into a house on Munjoy Hill in Portland. We contracted with Huffington House to provide…read moreinterior design services and supply furniture for our 3 story house. What an awful design experience we had in dealing with Bronwyn Huffard, the firm's owner, and the Huffard House. After charging us a $3000 "retainer", Bronwyn Huffard, the owner, delivered a page of cut-out photos and images representing the interior design deliverable after two months. The work product that we received from the Huffard House after waiting a couple of months to receive our interior design could have been done in a few minutes, not weeks, and certainly not at a cost of $2,100. After specifying priority areas, we never received a design product. We are extremely dissatisfied with Huffard House, and cannot recommend Bronwyn Huffard or Huffard House for any future project. If we could leave a negative 2 star review for Huffard House, we would. We remain extremely disappointed and have made overtures to Bronwyn Huffard to get our retainer money back. Our overtures and offers have been rejected. Based on our terrible experience with Huffard House, we would not recommend wasting money and being frustrated by expensive, "pad & paper" services of Huffard House. Instead, in our opinion, it would be better to just go to Ethan Allen in Portland center, where they will quickly (as in a matter of hours), visit your home, take photos, and then create a custom interior design for you ... in hours and for no charge

Anne was dedicated to the sale of our home, Liz was dedicated to the purchase of our new home and Kristine assisted in the office coordinating all communications and made sure nothing was missed. They offered staging advice which was very helpful. They gave us insight as to what needed to be done, which we did, which allowed for a very quick sale. In addition, they hired an amazing professional photographer and put a sign on our for sale sign that gave our home its own website. We were under contract 2 days after listing with a formal back up offer too! As if selling a home isn't stressful enough, the day our home went under contract, we also found our dream home which we went under contract with too! When we first met with the Cianchette Group, we were simply wanting to know what they could offer and were simply blown away by their knowledge, experience, and professionalism.

When we initially spoke to our realtor (Catherine Allen - Allen Realty Group) about putting our…read morehouse on the market, she scheduled some time to do a walkthrough with us. I was very confident that she would be super impressed with our home and the way it presented. Although she loved our home, she softly recommended we consider "staging" our home in order to bring out the best in it. Within a day, Shari came through and immediately had some great ideas to enhance the flow and completely improve the overall appeal of our home. From my perspective, Shari's unique talent is her ability to put you in a positive frame of mind and open up the many creative possibilities in presenting your home. After she completed the job and I was walking through our home, I was amazed how great everything looked and how much better it made me feel as a the owner. This was the "POP" I was looking for and I was much more optimistic about our chances of selling our home. Sure enough, we had good traffic through our home for a couple of weeks and the feedback on the staging was fantastic! Within three weeks we had a full price offer which included a request to purchase a few pieces of furniture in the house from Shari's staging. We highly recommend Shari & her team to stage anyone's home. It was literally "the breath of fresh" air our home needed to put it over the top!!!

The best part was seeing the payoff, we got many offers, over our asking price, and I genuinely credit a lot of that to the staging. I was amazed how effective it was and highly recommend her if you're selling your house!
