Are you thinking about selling your home and want to make it marketable to more buyers? ellie jane design studio can do this and more.
Home staging is arranging and enhancing your home so it will appeal to others. It is a known fact that staging WORKS and it will help your home sell faster. In a matter of days, elliie jane design studio will transform your home into a "product" that will motiviate buyers to make an offer. This is especially important in today's market place, where homeowners are aggressively placing their homes for sale.
With the increasing number of homes available for sale, buyers can afford to take their time and be more demanding about what they buy.
When buyers have time and selection on their side, they know they are in control of the situation and can be very picky. The only way to motivate them to take action and make an offer, is to make the home so desirable that they do not want to risk losing it. And, that is exactly what Home Staging and ellie jane design studio can do for you - help buyers to make an emotional connection with your home!!!
Home Staging is important for vacant homes too. Statistics show, that on the average, a Buyer only spends 5 minutes in a vacant home BUT the Buyer spends 40 minutes in a furnished or staged home.
The Home Staging process with ellie jane design studio begins with a 2 hour consultation. During this time, Janie will meet with the Homeowner and go room to room making recommendations regarding the placement of furniture, how to de-persoanlize, tips for de-cluttering and paint color plus many other suggestions. Recommendations will also be made for the exterior of the home. After the consultation, Janie will prepare a step-by- step and room-by-room written plan for her client so the Homeowner does not feel overwhelmed by the staging process.
In addiition, at the Homeowner's request, Janie will continue the Home Staging process beyond the consultation. For example, ellie jane design studio will rearrange furniture, purchase new bed coverings, purchase and hang new shower curtains. She will also come to your home before an Open House to help with the necessary accessorizing to make your home really "POP" for the special event. Of course, all of these changes will be accomplished by staying within the Homeowner's pre-determined budget.

My husband and I had our house on the market to sell for about two years. We had moved out of the house and it was empty at the time. We held several open houses and lots of people came to see the house and we had a couple of nibbles, but nothing ever happened to get the house sold.
We contacted our friend, Janie Allardt, and explained our situation to her to see if she had any ideas or suggestions that could help us get our house sold. Janie suggested staging, which is something we had never really heard about. Janie came to the house and made some wonderful suggestions. We repainted some of the rooms and took down some wallpaper. With Janie’s help, we brought in some pieces of furniture and placed in some of the rooms to give people an idea how the house looked with furniture. After the staging was completed, an open house was held and the house was sold within two weeks! Even though we thought we had the house in “ready to sell” condition, it’s helpful to get another perspective and Janie was the answer. She came in and immediately made simple suggestions that added color and style to the house that we didn’t see or think of. Janie has a wonderful eye for style and design and it made a huge difference for us! It was fun, easy, and worth the time effort. We owe it all to Janie!

A couple of years ago, the real estate market was a little slow. I had just listed a very nice home, which was also vacant - totally empty rooms that needed something to attract potential buyers and give them an idea of what these spaces could look like.
Janie Allardt staged the home beautifully, giving the empty home a warm and inviting feeling which resulted in a timely sale for the sellers.
When selling a home, staging really makes a difference!
Thank you Janie!
