If Mission 2 Organize is on a mission to change lives, then consider it 'Mission: Accomplished'…read more(for me at least, and for everyone I have already referred them to)! Which is why I am here: to yell my praises from digital mountain tops! I was (very generously) gifted an early Christmas present from my mom of a full day/organizing session with M2O... AND IT WAS THE BEST GIFT I EVER RECEIVED! It is truly the gift that keeps on giving. **Hint hint, people- Christmas is less than 3 weeks away, if you are struggling for ideas. ;-) Schae and Britney were spectacular! They rolled into my place like two boss ladies ready to get down to business (but not in a scary way lol)! They put on a fun playlist and took charge, which is what I like and needed. They let me help (obviously not required, but desired on my part to learn) and taught me helpful tips and tricks along the way to maintain the organization. Best of all, they knew how to prioritize my projects in the order that made most sense, and maximized efficiency and my time with them. Not a minute wasted and no stone (aka leftover crap I didn't need anymore) left unturned! AND, like, how helpful and convenient it is that they haul away as many donations for you as they can when they leave?! At the end of the day (literally), I had the best nights sleep that I'd had in years, knowing that there was (finally!) a place for everything and everything in its place. Not only did M2O grant me peace of mind, they motivated me to keep going and see what I can accomplish on my own with what I learned from them. And the productivity levels on all the DIY projects I've set aside over the years are through the roof! My home is, now, finally the way I want and need it to be- it is first and foremost, my sanctuary. Thanks to M2O! But don't worry, I would never claim to be a 'Master Organizer' like them though- there are still some projects that seem just too overwhelming to undertake myself...like where do I even start?! SO, I've already booked my next session with them. Can't wait for Round 2!

Our kitchen and bathrooms were touched by angels…read more We just moved into our new condo and let's just say we had more than we thought the space could handle. 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.

Got excited to see a big sign in the front yard that said in honor of USA 250th birthday everything is 50% off. So we go in and I'm looking around and I asked one of the sales people so everything is 50% off today? She said that the prices shown are already 50% off. I was thinking "you can't be serious!" They have just lost a couple of customers. Don't go. They are scammers!!! I if I was going to have an estate sale I wouldn't hire them!!!

Gayle Todd, President, is originally from the County of Kent, England and moved to Chicago at the age of 25 to further her career in finance. After meeting her husband and having two amazing children she decided it was time to move on from her career in the corporate world to spend time at home watching and helping her kids grow. Gayle has always loved design and beautiful homes. She watched her family renovate and remodel houses and has now had the pleasure of fully renovating several of her own. Matthew Todd, Gayle's husband grew up in Franklin County, Ohio and became a Realtor in the Western Suburbs of Chicago. Gayle started to assist Matt in preparing his clients homes for sale, getting the homes organized and show ready. After seeing the amazing results clients would refer Gayle to other Realtors and friends and so the business Franklin & Kent Designs was created.

Lisa came here a week ago and made suggestions which all were ones we had never thought of. I was…read morecomfortable with her because she is so easy to talk with and she did listen to me on every single change. She puts a brand new perspective into a home that a homeowner wouldn't even think of!! I can't thank her enough. She came back one week later (yesterday) just to make sure everything was looking good. I so appreciated that because I do believe in first impressions when walking into a home that you are thinking of buying. I now have peace, which is always priceless, because of Lisa. I know that this is the best this home has ever looked!! We love what she did and she uses what you have and the only suggestion was new hand towels, which we needed anyway. Small price to pay for all of her help! So thank you, Lisa. We now can move to the next step; showing all this hard work and selling it:) Susie

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!

It was essential to have furniture in these rooms so people could imagine how they would live. Additionally, we went $25,000 over market price (we were asking $375,000 when other homes were selling for $350,000) because we felt the CV-19 market conditions and low interest rates were favorable. Having a fully staged home helped us get our price! I'm certain that without the staging, we would not be sold at our price. First, our designer met us in the home while we were still remodeling it. She took notes and pictures and could imagine how it would look, even though we were only 50% finished. A week later when we were finished, a truck arrived with several people to "move in". The entire crew was professional and used health safety precautions. They were finished in 6 hours -- imagine if YOU tried to do that on your own!! Everything was sparkling and clean, shiny and perfect. Everyone says WOW when they walk in. They were great to work with and I will use them again if I have to sell another home. https://www.mrmhomedesign.com/1927-westchester

So I called…read morethem and I was surprised by how friendly and acomodating they are, especially given my crazy work schedule. They were not only very fast and affordable, but most importantly the quality of their work was much higher than any other company I had spoken with before. So given that I couldn't sell my house within the past 2 months, as soon as I got it all pretty and staged with beautiful furniture, I was able to sell my house within 10 days and even higher than the price that I originally imagined I could sell. I highly recommend them!
