Our Rates
We offer home staging services to real estate agents and their sellers between Tacoma and Edmonds, and between Seattle and North Bend. Our staging service includes furniture, art, and accessories delivered to your home and styled by our creative professionals. It includes an initial term of 45 days’ rental of all items delivered. Staging usually takes one full day, but can extend to two days if needed.
We require an initial home walk-through where we decide what style, colors, and furnishings will be best for your specific property. We asses these factors by the era and style of the home, taking into consideration any existing architecture or furniture we are asked to work with/around. Our goal is to merchandise your home to sell at the highest dollar and within the shortest time span.
We then schedule your stage and return to create a stylish, impressive home that will inspire prospective buyers. Rental of the staging pieces is charged on a monthly basis following the first 45 days. Staging rates begin at $2000
What can I expect to pay for 45 days of staging?
We price our stages by adding up 3 factors:
1. DESIGN • The cost it takes us to design, plan, pack, and travel to your listing.
We assess this by size of property, based on an hourly rate of $120. Below is an example of time per square footage:
2. DELIVERY • The cost we pay to have your stage delivered and picked up again upon destaging.
This generally ranges from $850-$1400, depending on size of the property, and the distance to & from our Southcenter warehouse.
This rate is based on travel time and size of property. We use a dedicated third-party moving company, Northwest Small Moving, who we have partnered with for over 6 years. This rate reflects what they charge us. We do not pad this cost… we simply pass our cost on to you. We are based in South Seattle, so the farther the trip, the higher the cost.
3. INSTALLATION • The cost to stage per room.
This rate is based on two things: the cost of inventory each room requires plus the cost of labor for the time it takes us to install each room.

What if my listing doesn’t sell in 45 days?
While most listings in the Seattle area tend to sell within far less than 45 days, to accommodate for a longer rental period we charge the 50% of the initial quote for 30 days, invoiced monthly at the start of every subsequent term.
Can I pay at closing out of Escrow?
We offer a deferred payment option to save on the up-front cost of staging. This invoice would be submitted by the seller or representing agent to be paid in full from seller's closing costs by the closing date. The extra cost for this payment option is 20% of the original invoice amount. We do not offer a deferred payment for partial invoices, and this must be discussed upon acceptance of our quote.
I need advice on how to prep my house to sell. Can you help?
We love helping sellers understand and implement the updates needed to maximize sale value! We offer consultations, at your home, where we tour every space of the house and discuss everything that could be fixed, mended, painted, cleaned, or replaced to attract the most interest. After out consultation, we follow up with a laundry list of what we discussed, in order of priority so you can decide with your real estate agent what to focus on. Our rate for listing prep consults is $150/hour, with a one hour minimum, including travel.
