Paola was recommended to us by our realtor. At first we were skeptical that we needed a stager (it…read moreseemed frivolous) but we were wrong. Paola met with us for about 2 hours at our house, two months before we were going to sell. She gave us a run down of what she thought should be done. This included changing a carpet, painting a small room a neutral color, chopping down a small bush, getting rid of various pieces of furniture, moving some art work. We decided to go with it as we liked Paola's style. She is very direct and businesslike and we felt that she knew what she was doing. We did what she said and then about 5 days before the first open house she came back and she dressed each room with vases, throws, paintings, decorations. She moved furniture from one room to another, making me wonder why I hadn't thought of doing that while we lived there! In the end, our 36 year old house looked like a new house. We were delighted. I am pleased to say that our house looked so good that it sold the day after the open house for the asking price. It was a nice house anyway, but Paola made it really shine.

Paola was recommended by our realtor to stage our home in Acton which we sold in June 2018. She was…read moreextremely thorough going from room to room and our realtor was kind enough to type up all the notes so we could remember it all! We appreciated that Paola tried to use as much of our own furnishings and decor as possible - moving items from one room to another or simply "decluttering" them. She ended up providing some small decor, pillows, and wall hangings and along with all the changes she suggested, our house showed really well. Our house went under agreement the first Open House weekend. Paola was easy to communicate with even answering last minute decor questions. She was mindful of all the costs of selling the house and accepted her payment when we finally closed. We really appreciated her help!

I indicated I wanted to chat briefly before providing a deposit, and Melissa sent me her number. I called and left a couple voicemails over two days and did not receive a response, so I followed up over email indicating I'd be going in a different direction, and then Melissa called. We aligned on details and Melissa told me my date was "locked" and we agreed I'd pay the deposit as soon as she sent a proposal with the details. Four days went by, then Melissa sent me an email saying she could no longer honor the committed date. Very frustrating when working on short time scales during a stressful home sale process.

She brought in really interesting artwork and various figurines that made our home like a showplace! Even our realtor commented that our beautiful home was brought to next level with her staging. For the very reasonable designer fee, we are convinced that it increased our sales price more than 10x the cost of the staging! I would recommend Serenity Designs/Monique to ANYONE considering selling their home.

Once we had done our chores (mid-May), she was back with the loaner items and they set the house up carefully for the photographer, and gave us instructions about how we should re-create the setting before showing the house. She does exactly what she says she is going to do, with a minimum of fuss and I would work with her again in a heartbeat.

There are many stager's of course but Laura Graziano is the real deal…read more She has staged about a dozen listings for The R & L Home Team and each one not only SOLD but usually in less than 9 days and for over the asking price. The energy Laura brings is contagious & we love how she works close with the sellers to tastefully transform their homes from "living" in it to "Selling" it and get each room to have that "wow" factor. We think of Laura as part of our team and as the saying goes! "The cost of staging is always cheaper than the first price reduction". Many of our clients also use Laura to stage the homes they are BUYING which to us, speaks volume to her ability and approach. She is super genuine and is always upbeat and accommodating! Even when we tell her that we need her ASAP (which is basically every listing..LOL). We feel so confident recommending Laura to all of our clients, friends & family. Thank you Laura for making our listings (& our team) stand out. Rick & Lisa The R & L Home Team Braintree, MA

Coupled with being certain the property was not priced too high, having this level of staging made the photos come out amazing, drawing lots of action to open houses... 10 offers, went well over asking, all cash, and a quick close. Numerous factors at play to make all of this happen, but the staging was most certainly a critical one. The cost to have Santina work her magic paid for itself many times over and really boosted the sale to another level. Cannot recommend her highly enough!
