STAGED . TO . SELL .


Vacant Staging 

Our expert team fully furnishes the rooms being staged with one goal in mind: showcasing your home at its best. We highlight key features, merchandise the highest-impact areas, and strategically downplay flaws so buyers see the full potential.

The result? A home that photographs beautifully, shows at its finest, and attracts quicker sales with stronger offers.

It’s important to note that staging is not interior design. Interior design is about customizing a space to an owner’s personal taste. Home staging, on the other hand, is strategic merchandising—transforming the property so it appeals to the widest pool of buyers and helps it sell fast, and for top dollar.

Pre-Listing Consultations

We start with a full property walk-through and provide actionable steps to get your home market-ready. Our goal is to help you address even the smallest details that could affect your bottom line and ensure you secure the most equity possible.

Remember, your first showing is online—92% of buyers start their search there before ever stepping foot inside. That’s why it’s crucial your MLS photos capture attention instantly.

By following the professional recommendations from RUEcovery Staging, you’ll position your home to sell faster and for top dollar. In fact, a recent survey found that 63% of buyers are willing to pay more for a move-in ready property. The more you do to prepare, the quicker and more profitable your sale will be.

 Occupied Staging

Even when a home is lived in, staging makes all the difference. Buyers don’t just purchase a house—they buy into the feeling of home. Occupied staging ensures they experience that emotional connection from the moment they walk in.

  • Neutralizes Personal Style
    Your taste is beautiful, but buyers need to picture their life in the home. Staging tones down personalization so the space feels universally appealing.
  • Maximizes First Impressions
    Clutter, layout, or too much furniture can distract. Staging simplifies and highlights the best features so buyers focus on the home, not the stuff.
  • Creates Flow & Function
    We optimize furniture placement to make rooms feel larger, brighter, and more functional—transforming lived-in spaces into market-ready showpieces.
  • Boosts Value
    A staged occupied home feels “move-in ready.” According to NAR, staged homes sell faster and often for more, because buyers fall in love.

Staging FAQ's

Although professional staging is a relatively new industry, people have been "fixing up" their homes to sell for decades.  These days due to HGTV home buyers have an "expectation" and are willing to pay quite a bit more for a home that is "model home" looking.

If you could get 10% more on the sale of your home, how much would that be?

What is home staging?

Home Staging is the preparation of a home to sell by a professional who specializes in this form of design and has been certified and trained on the art of home staging.  Many definitions you have seen no doubt stop after the word “sell” and that is part of the big misconception and devaluation of home staging. A professional home stager has the resources and can objectively view the home as a product and highlight its assets while downplaying its flaws. The home seller cannot view their home objectively, while many successful Realtors do not have the time or trade resources to properly stage a home.

How much does home staging cost?

For as little as a few hundred dollars you can have a detailed list of what you can do to maximize the value of your home!  

Why can't I stage my own home?

Home sellers are usually incapable of successfully staging their own home. Why? Because our homes are like our children, we don’t always see all of its flaws. We’ve gotten used to the way it looks and in fact it is difficult emotionally to change it. If you can’t view something objectively then you are unable to market and package it effectively. Not to mention most home sellers don't "stage" homes everyday for a living. That’s what HSR Certified professionals are for and that is where the greatest returns come in.

Why do I need to stage?

Even if your house sells quickly in a good market, it doesn’t mean it sold for the amount it would have sold for had it been professionally staged. Remember, HSR Certified professionally staged homes sell on a conservative average for10%+ more in a good market (see the Latest Home Staging Statistics).

Can't home buyers use their imagination and look past my decor or empty rooms?

Only a mere 10% of home buyers can actually visualize the potential of a home and most of these folks are "investors" or "flippers" who will hammer you on price.  In our Consultation walk through, I will identify those "price eroding" factors of your home, so that you can do the simple fixes that maximize returns. 

This is also why having a vacant home professionally staged is so important. Buyers cannot visualize size and scale so furniture helps to give them a frame of reference.
