Staging isn’t just showing up with furniture—it’s an intensive, multi-phase operation. Before we even arrive on-site, our Team has already invested 50 to 80+ hours behind the scenes preparing your property for a flawless, photo-ready transformation.
Here’s a breakdown of the time, Team, and effort involved in Staging a single property:
- 2 hours (Lead Stager): On-site visit to take photos and measurements after contract signing. This ensures your Staging plan is accurate and tailored to your property.
- 3 – 5 hours (Lead Stager): Creation of a custom Staging plan. This involves reviewing notes, photos, and measurements to develop a comprehensive design strategy aligned with Buyer psychology.
- 12 – 20 hours (Lead Stager): Inventory pull and prep. We hand-select furniture, art, and accessories from our warehouse (and purchase additional items if needed), ensuring the design plan is cohesive and complete.
- 8 – 12 hours (1–3 Assistants): Packing and Staging prep. All accessories are bubble-wrapped, labeled by room, and placed with furniture at the loading dock. Furniture is wrapped for transport.
- 4 – 5 hours (2 – 3 Movers + Truck): Physical moving to the property. Transporting all Staging items to your home. For high-rise condos, this can take longer due to freight elevator access or door removal—this is why a Condo Mover Surcharge may apply.
- 18 – 28 hours (Lead Stager + 2 – 4 Assistants): On-site design and installation. Our full Team arranges every piece—furniture, wall art, lighting, accessories—for a cohesive, magazine-worthy finish.
- 4 – 6 hours (2 Assistants): De-staging. Our Team carefully repacks and prepares all items for return transport.
- 4 – 5 hours (2 – 3 Movers + Truck): Physical moving back to warehouse. The Team unloads all inventory and furniture back at our warehouse.
- 7 – 12 hours (2 Assistants): Restocking and organizing. Accessories are unpacked, bins cleaned, and furniture restocked onto our warehouse racks.
