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.

All I can say is, WOW! My husband and I were looking for a home for quite some time and when we…read morecame across a house that Eclectic Home had staged, we absolutely fell in love! It really made the house feel like home- we could totally picture ourselves living here. I know that this was a major reason we ended up purchasing it. We loved it so much that we even contacted the designer and asked if we could purchase some of the items for ourselves. She was extremely friendly and professional! We are so happy with our new furniture, and I would highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking to sell their home while having it look it's best.

Love Dawn and Diane! They are incredibly responsive, professional, and wonderful to work with…read more Before staging, they came and scouted the house and took photos to determine what furniture needed to be brought in to make the rooms look warm and welcome. During the day of staging, both of them were here for the whole day (I staged 70% of my house) to ensure that every room is styled nicely. Oh, all the lighting was set on timers to turn on and off at a certain time. I'd definitely use them again. If you are looking for a staging company, you should check them out. You will be happy with their services!

I have to…read moresay I have worked with quite a few stagers, but Dawn and Diane really shine through in my mind. They were a new business I believe in the past couple years and have really grown due to great service. I have seen their inventory almost triple as they are very diligent in planning every home uniquely to give it the best potential to be sold. Unlike some stagers who just put the same furniture together every time to make it easier. Dawn and Diane go out of their way. After they set up the home fully I always feel like I'm in a magazine because it all looks so perfect. Keep it up ladies! Oh and I remember asking them if they still rearranged at home after starting the biz. I knew the answer would be of course, quite often and it was because it always feels like they have fun staging the homes:)

Poor quality. High price tag. Staging was dirty and dingy. Really disappointing. See photos.read more

Having sold several vacant properties in the past, we believe that staging a vacant home can…read moreenhance its appearance to prospective home-buyers. This was our first experience with On Stage. Their furniture and furnishings, though not high-end, were adequate and the few rooms which they did furnish, worked well. But our issue is this: They knew our budget and they promised to work within that budget. What they essentially did was a bait and switch on the price and the number of rooms we agreed that they would furnish. The wanted more money at the last minute. This underhanded tactic was employed by the company two days before the house was to be listed and available for showings. And, only three days before its Open House; Something On Stage was acutely aware of. Further, the company's rep misrepresented the daily rate should the furnishings be in the house over the term of the 30-day contract. The amended deal was now $6 more for each day! Our realtor, who was equally displeased, said that because of the late date, it would be impractical to try and get another staging company to come out the house with a new offer. As a consequence, we felt that On Stage coerced us into signing an agreement which they knew was not what we initially consented to nor what we mutually agreed upon. There are other staging companies out there which I have to believe are more ethical when dealing with their clients than is On Stage

They used furniture that was infested with moths (hundreds of them), and left behind a MAJOR moth infestation in my otherwise empty new home. When they picked up their furniture, they left chipped paint all over my floor and left all of their nails (what staging company uses actual nails in the walls?!) and holes in my walls. Instead of moving my things in, I'm having to spend time cleaning up their messes. My real estate agent, the sellers agent and I have attempted to reach them multiple times and through different means, and they have completely ignored us- literally no response at all. Please do not use this company unless you want bug infestations and piss poor customer service.

My business was in the beginning stages and things were stressful and extremely overwhelming for me. Laura jumped on board and took control down to the smallest detail, which in turn allowed me to relax a bit. After seeing how thorough she is, I hired her personally to help organize the back end of my business. Organizing starts within a calm mind and Laura knows just what pathways to go down to make sure every detail from macro to micro is taken care of. Laura understands the value of systems and working on deep psychological and emotional levels to create real, long lasting change. Laura and I will continue to work together on all kinds of projects as we both leap forward as individuals in the same industry helping one another. I love reading her blog/ Facebook posts as they continue to inspire me on my journey both in my business and at home. I highly recommend Laura for any organizing project you may have. Whether it be home, business or other related- she is a woman that can handle it all!
