What Our Client Said . . .
 
"Patty and Set The Stage did an amazing job on my home.
 
It was truly better than I expected - and I expected it to look great.
 
Patty exceeded my highest hopes. I really believe that my home will sell much faster becuse I staged with her."

The Inspiration for Our Business
 
If you've received a personal note from us, you may have read this already -- it's printed on the bottom of every note.
 
It is also what I believe:
 
"The secret of happiness lies in taking a genuine interest in all of the details of daily life and elevating them to art."
 - William Morris
  
  
At Set The Stage this is what drives our passion, along with the knowledge that we offer a valuable service to our clients, concretely helping them to achieve their life goals. 
 
Work with us today and you'll be glad you did tomorrow.
 
 
Greetings!

Today, more sellers are staying put while their home is on the market.  Unfortunately, an occupied home can look a bit too "lived in" to effectively show.
 
The National Association of Realtors (NAR) says that 92% of all homebuyers shop online for their next home.  Strong online photos have never been more important.
 
We Can Help.
We offer convenient, affordable staging packages for occupied homes.
 
$150 - One Hour Staging Consultation to give clients a plan.
$750 - One Day Stage: a flat fee to polish up the entire home.
 
We'll also bring additional furniture pieces and accessories when we stage if needed. Prices vary, but are affordable.

A Note From Patty
Let's Talk!   
 
You may not know that I graduated from college with a triple major of theatre, speech and secondary education.  That training makes me a very effective presenter and helps me in my business every day.
 
I'd love to talk to your office.  Ten minutes to a half hour or more; tell me what you need, and I'll deliver a fun and informative presentation. 
Call me today!  206.910.9314.
 
With sincere thanks,
