I was so happy with Amy's staging talent, I copy and paste here part of my personal text to her: "Good morning Amy. I would like to let you know that we have achieved our goal, and we achieved it fast, above and beyond our expectation --we have entered into a final purchase agreement without any more contingencies and we wouldn't have accomplished it without your superb staging talent." The value that she gives you is nothing compared to what you get in return. The investment is totally worth it. She made it easy for people to fall in love with my home and make it their dream home. As a result, I sold my house 45,000$ over asking in 8 days. Actually the buyer who eventually got it, made their offer 2 hours after it got posted on MLS. I can never thank you enough. read more

When it came to staging my parent's home in San Mateo I met with nearly a dozen staggers. I knew the big impact staging could have and wanted to be sure to find a stagger that could highlight the best features of the home and it's open floor plan. Staging Artists was at the higher end of the range of quotes I received but having seen their beautiful work, I decided to go with them. I couldn't have been happier with the decision. Staging Artists is worth every penny!!! I worked with Julie directly who was phenomenal. I live in Los Angeles and wasn't able to meet with her personally but she was always available to answer my questions by phone. She went above and beyond and helped me pick out paint colors and offered advice on updating fixtures. Though I had high expectation during booking, when I walked into the home after staging was completed, I was blown away. The home looked amazing and exceeded my expectations in every way!! I highly recommend Staging Artists and staff member Julie!!! read more

Amy West of Staging Artists came to our house for the initial consultation. There is a fee for this consultation and it was very reasonable given the proposal package we received when she was done. We had not decided at that time on whether to have Staging Artists do the work or to take some of the ideas suggested by Amy and attempt to do them ourselves. Amy spent at least an hour and a half with us and we jotted down ideas that she shared with us. Amy provided suggestions for both inside the house and the yard. She took pictures and said she would provide all suggestions in writing for us in the final proposal package in the event that we decided to try to stage ourselves. Once we received the proposal package (the same day) from Amy we reviewed the suggestions, we reviewed the costs to have Staging Artists do the work for us and compared it against all the stuff we would have to buy or borrow to accomplish the recommendations. It was a hard decision but we decided to attempt the staging ourselves based on the recommendations provided by Amy in the package. We felt we could do the work ourselves but I wouldn't recommend it for everyone! We spent a lot of time and had several talented friends come over to help with the decluttering and staging based on the recommendations by Amy. It didn't hurt that the friends were extremely creative as well. It took a couple weekends of cleaning the house, moving things to storage, and then staging with either purchased items or friends loaned pictures, vases, art, furniture, furniture pillows, carpets, etc. One very talented relative staged the outside with furniture, flowers, plants, and created several distinct "rooms" outside for resting and enjoying the yard and beautifully staged plants and flowers. Wow! What a difference!! Our small team thought the place looked totally different and it looked fantastic. We were ready to put the house on the market. We lost count of the number of realtors and prospective clients that came through and asked our realtor who staged the house and how beautiful it was. There were so many positive comments and according to our realtor when he asked for any other additional staging ideas or things that could be improved, the answer was always, no, it was perfect the way it is. "It really shows well." We believe that the staging and the specifics that Amy suggested directly correlated to the strong interest in the house and the property. We also wanted to thank our very special and talented friends for helping us implement Amy's suggestions as well as bring their own creativity into the mix. We sold our house! We believe that Amy West of Staging Artists deserves so much of the credit. There are no hesitations in highly recommending Staging Artists and Amy West for your home staging needs. Good luck! read more

I use Staging Artists as my primary stager for my SF listings and they consistently make my client's properties shine. Amy and her team really understand how to make the most effective use of space, color and lighting. They are flexible, responsive and a trusted partner. I highly recommend them. read more

I couldn't be more thankful to have found Staging Artists. Besides the fact that they did an excellent job in staging the properties (inside and out), they went out of their way to help me resolve a very difficult situation at one property... I was working with a very unethical buyer's agent (I can provide details if interested) who created a lot of challenges for us, one of which is arranging pickup of the staging company furniture. I called Staging Artists and Gina worked with me on various options, went out of her way to arranging exceptional scheduling (they are so busy but she took the time to explore what could be done), and made my battle so much easier. On the day of pickup, I met Fia and Sua - they are so professional and kind (even though the buyer/agent again created challenges for us in entering the house), not to mention they also made the process much much faster so I can put this nightmare behind me. Thank you again for being a great company with excellent personnel/service! What a great team! read more

Amy and Sylvia do a nice job at staging our listings. She's competitive in her pricing and does help us with clients who don't quite "get" why they need staging. They are good about using the client's own furniture and supplementing with accessories. Overall they are great to work with. read more

Amy West has been great to work with. She's helped me stage many homes this past year. She's also helped me create strategies to maximize the value of a house based on it's particular attributes. She's become an important member of my sales team. And my clients love the results. read more

Unable to recommend Staging Artists. I recently contracted SA to stage my home for sale. Two major issues occurred. 1) SA soiled an expensive brand new carpet during the initial furniture staging process, and, repeated the same issue during removal of staging furniture at the end of the contract. Furthermore, newly painted walls were scratched in several places by SA's furniture movers. 2) SA's management completely unresponsive and failed to reach out to me to discuss the reported issues and didn't implement corrective actions. Concluding, my customer experience with Staging Artists was very disappointing at best. read more

Staging Artists were wonderful in preparing our house for sale. They know how to make a house look its best and were thoughfu and careful to ensure things go right. We were not at the house and they moved our items to the gerarge and completely update the house for sale. I think they are great and the buyer will be using them to stage the house they are selling. read more

Amy and her team were fantastic. I initially brought Amy in to consult on paint colors, light and bathroom fixtures 45 days before our open house. I was so pleased with the results that we used Staging Artist to completely stage the house three days prior to going on the market and what an amazing transformation; our neighbors were blown away. Amy and her team are experts. I highly recommend. read more

I couldn't be more pleased with the results of Staging Artists to stage our townhome. They did beyond what I requested, which was make it nice but keep it simple so others can see how their home can be yet not get distracted and not see their own stuff there. So Staging Artists made it look simple, yet elegant. They even heard me about my favorite color, though I told them to use their best judgment. I just couldn't be more pleased with how everything turned out. Karla did the initial design preparation and Kathy and her team did the final layout. It looks fantastic! What an impact without being overwhelming. Just perfect! Thanks, Staging Artists! Highest recommendations! read more

Be sure you go look at something in person they have staged before you use them - don't rely on pictures in their promotional materials or on the internet. The furniture and accessories they brought to our house were not just cheap quality, but were damaged and badly worn. This is not accurately reflected in pictures. They also did not provide us with all of the items they agreed to and still charged us the entire amount. They were completely unresponsive to my complaints and concerns, either ignoring my e-mails and phone messages completely or taking days to respond. I have dealt with different stagers in the past and have never had a negative experience before. read more
