Occupied Staging...



Fun fact... Home Staging costs are usually 
​tax-deductible! 
Check with a tax professional in your state.

Occupied Consultation     $175
       with Detailed Staging Report   $250
After this intensive and fun (2) hour Consultation, clients will feel more educated, encouraged, and empowered (no judgement zone!) about the process to get their home market-ready and sold quickly! Is it overwhelming? Of course! But this is where SOS Designs shines... providing expert solutions for every time frame and budget.
  • Starting outside and then moving through the home, we assess each space, focusing on how best to showcase the fixed assets of the home.
  • Our goal is to not only provide staging suggestions, but to explain why we make any recommendations. There is a lot of science behind what we do and we love to share that with our clients! 
  • Often, we recommend purchasing new accessories or other items to help solidify the professional staging look and ensure the online photos really POP! These items can be great additions to take with you to your new home. In the event you simply do not want to purchase anything new, we also offer Staging Enhancements, on-trend accessories that we can provide for a minimal monthly rental fee.
  • Every room will get High/Medium/Low Priority recommendations that help clients decide how BEST to spend their time and money. They can do as little or as much as the budget provides.


​Virtual Consultation     $100
This is an abbreviated (1) hour Consultation via FaceTime, Zoom, or Google Meet. Perfect for the busy family or for those with limited availability, this shorter virtual meeting allows the owner or agent to "walk" us through the home and get feedback in real time.
  • We still cover everything, from curb appeal to room layout to recommended updates.
  • A second person to take notes or handle the cell phone/laptop is highly recommended as there will be a lot of information, tips, and tricks that you won't want to miss.
  • This is a great alternative for those who are worried about COVID-19 and prefer not to have an in-person appointment.
  • A helpful option for agents who have some basic knowledge of what may be needed, but who are looking for additional staging expertise to ensure the home sells for top dollar.
  • This option does not include a Detailed Staging Report.

Photo Prep      
Ideal for the DIY client who wants to complete the staging on their own, but who still needs help prior to professional photos. Let us come perfect each room to create strong marketing photos and get buyers in the door! Perfect furniture placement, wall art that's too large or small, exposed cords, pillow tags, crooked bedding, etc. may not be very noticeable in real life, but they really stick out in photos. 
  • We will spend up to (2) hours refining what has already been completed using our Consultation recommendations to perfect each space.
  • We will provide creative, organizational solutions so that clients are able to prep the home within 30 minutes for those late notice showings!
  • If Staging Enhancement rentals are required, an additional fee will be charged.
  • Any additional hours will be charged an hourly rate.
  • Previous Consultation required.
  • Home must be prepped and cleaned prior to stager arriving.
  • A professional photographer is highly recommended to take pictures immediately after Staging Refinement. SOS Designs is happy to arrange a professional photographer at the client's request.

HALF Day Occupied Staging  
After the initial Consultation "homework" (pre-packing, painting, and furniture editing) is completed by the home owner, we will return to stage the main areas of the home. This is a great budget saver as we are experts in creative solutions that are sure to WOW!
  • We will spend up to (4) hours making IMPACTFUL transformations to make the most of each space. After all, it's about creating amazing photos that help buyers connect to the home!
  • We will focus on the main "money rooms" of the home and, time permitting, spend any remaining time in secondary rooms. 
  • We will utilize any of the new staging accessories that were recommended in the Consultation (like crisp, white sheets, towels, or pillows, etc.).
  • As an additional service to our clients, SOS Designs offers our Selection Services where we shop for the recommended critical accessories for your home, often using our to-the-trade discounts and a keen eye for the best deal! 
  • If the client is unable or would rather not purchase any of the recommended accessories, SOS Designs also offers Staging Enhancement rentals (i.e., lamps, throw pillows, greenery, art, etc.) for an additional fee.
  • Any additional Hourly Staging or Selection Services will be charged an hourly rate.
  • Previous Consultation required.
  • Home must be prepped and cleaned prior to stager arriving.

FULL Day Occupied Staging    
This is the Get it SOLD approach... great for the main areas of larger homes, or for smaller homes who want every space to be picture-perfect! 
  • Our team will spend up to (8) hours making IMPACTFUL transformations using what you already have to make the most of each space!
  • ​For larger homes over 4000sf, we will expertly stage and perfect the main "money rooms," and, time permitting, spend any remaining time in secondary rooms.
  • For homes less than 4000sf, we will expertly stage every room, time permitting.
  • We will utilize any of the new staging accessories that were recommended in the Consultation (like crisp, white sheets, towels, or pillows, etc.).
  • As an additional service to our clients, SOS Designs offers our Selection Services where we shop for the recommended critical accessories for your home (often using our to-the-trade discounts and a keen eye for the best deal!). 
  • If the client is unable or would rather not purchase any of the recommended accessories, SOS Designs also offers Staging Enhancement rentals (i.e., lamps, throw pillows, greenery, art, etc.) for an additional fee.
  • Any additional Hourly Staging or Selection Services will be charged an hourly rate.
  • Previous Consultation required.
  • Home must be prepped and cleaned prior to stager arriving.

Additional staging services that we love to provide...
Hourly Staging   
If needed, additional hours can either be added on to an existing appointment or scheduled for another staging day. It's much better to stay a little bit longer and do it right than to rush through critical areas and risk a less-than-professional-looking outcome. Yikes!
 
Staging Enhancements    
We often make recommendations for additional accessory purchases to complete the expert look. For those clients who simply do not want to make any new purchases, we have a selection of accessories and light furnishings available for a monthly rental fee. This is the perfect way to give your home that on-trend and cohesive look without having even more stuff to pack and move when your house sells. 

​Selection Services  
For clients who don't mind making the purchases that will greatly enhance their home staging, but who have no desire to actually shop and select those items on their own, SOS Designs is here to help! We are happy to offer Selection Services where we take the guesswork out of the decision-making for the client and do the shopping for them! 

​Project Management  
For clients who are willing to make the necessary upgrades to their home but who may not have the time to oversee the project, SOS Designs is available to help secure, schedule, and supervise any contractors hired by the client. Things like new paint, lighting, tile, carpet, etc. can catapult your listing to new heights... but who has the time?! We do!
