Several months ago, I was in the challenging situation of trying to sell my current house, and buy…read morea new house. I was first exposed to Spade and Archer because I attended an open house for a home that was BEAUTIFULLY staged. Seriously -- the staging stood out to me more than parts of the actual home did! Needless to say, when it came time for me to try to sell my home, S&A was top of my list. I knew staging my home would be challenging. It's an old house, and a lot of the rooms are narrow and long. I also knew it would be important to stage the home in such a way that the furniture would complement some of my home's turn of the century features. Well, reader, Spade and Archer absolutely, 100% delivered. They were friendly, easy to work with, and seamless in their set up and take down of the staging. Plus -- my house sold in 4 days! I would happily work with them again, and have nothing but great things to say about their aesthetic choices and approach to business.

If you want to sell your home for above asking price, hire Spade & Archer. If you'd rather show…read moreeveryone your cool house and your favorite things, don't and good luck competing. This agency understands buyers and how to manufacture demand. Combined with a good agent, you'll be successful. Our experience was great. The designer provided frank suggestions but left final decisions up to us and our budget. He was upfront and crystal clear about the process. Our eclectic taste was complimented but neutralized in order to get us a fantastic return in the sale. That funky light we love? 80% of buyers don't love it and the buyer is the one who counts. The buyer wants to see THEM in the space, not YOU. The execution team was on time, professional, and thorough. Lovely people. The result: Sold in 7 days after a bidding war for $45K over asking. We beat every single non-Spade & Archer staged comp in a 1-mile radius in a red-hot market. If and when we move next, this will be my first call after my agent.

I was referred to Simply Staged NW by a fellow flipper in the Portland Market. We had been using…read moreOn Stage previously, and their prices and inflexibility the past year was getting to be too much. While Simply stage NW's prices are competitive to the market, it's their customer service, attention to detail, and their creative designs that have me using this company for our listings, as well as rehab projects. The owner of the company is the driving force behind why they have been this successful in my opinion. A woman who is dedicated to her craft obsessively. She works long hours to ensure we are taken care of. This is high class staging at an affordable price in my opinion. I certainly hope as this company grows, they maintain that edge by continuing to be affordable. IN addition to staging, I took a chance and had them design my flat. The process took about 2 weeks with constant communication regarding furniture colors, artwork, and even down to kitchen/bathroom decor. Being a newly single dad needed a design that would encompass both a modern feel, but also fluid to feel like home for my son. Once this was all done, she and her team came to my home, assembled the furniture, and removed all the old items. I probably could have sold the other stuff, but the convenience of her team removing was well worth the time it would take me to post the other items online. What impressed me the most was the high level of communication, and their obvious nature to please. There were a few towels I wasn't too thrilled about in the bathrooms, she had new towels replaced within days. Anyway, that was my experience....

If you are invested money in projects where you are hiring this company and are looking for…read moreprofessionals... this IS NOT the company to go with. Im still trying to understand. I worked with Margret, the owner of the company on both consultations. I'm a return customer. 1st time was to pick out interior colors and was satisfied with receiving them with in a couple days. I was told it was nice to work with me and looked forward to helping further on my remodel. I had a second consultation to pick home exterior paint colors as our home was being resided a month. During the, "consultation" this timeline was explained to her and she said no problem. After waiting over a month with no response I contacted the company and the owner, Margret, sent me this email... "Got your message from the office and sorry - this has been unfinished in my drafts and I just have been too busy with consultations and remodeling to wrap up. No charge for the visit and sorry - I just am better to focus on the work I have lined up and here." I replied to her I had the contractors her putting up siding and really needed the color choices. She replied "sorry, I'm going on vacation and cannot help you." In an email response. I'm honestly just floored. Agains, if you have money invested in projects and are looking for professionals... this IS NOT the company to go with. I truly just thought they forgot to send the colors over, not she just decided like a game without telling me she had no intentions on helping me after I took a day off to to meet with her at my house consultation. ‍‍‍‍ I will definitely update this post including recommendation to a professional company patrons can use for staging and remodeling choices because you deserve better!

We paid for consulting fees and the cost of furniture, they disclosed the cost last time but this time refuse. Furniture does not match the house, we asked for organization and things wer just randomly crammed in odd spots with no organization. They had us look at most of the furniture in advance, one of the pieces they did not have us look at we asked to be returned since it is out of place, they refused. Poor painting on accent walls, crooked picture, uncentered pictures, empty walls. They will only stand behind their work if you pay more. We had to hire out to have the job done correctly. Run far away, they do not stand behind their work.
