“I never thought that staging was something that really applied to commercial real estate. But I am a convert now for sure. We asked Cathy and Sandra and their team to stage the penthouse floor of a downtown office building we had for lease (and that had been empty for nearly a year without offers) and the first showing we had after they finished (just 15 minutes later), we got an Offer” (read the complete article)

“As a real estate agent, I have had the opportunity to work with home stagers in the past. Stage it to MOVE came to our offices and with a very professional, refreshing approach to this business, I engaged them with a Client of mine who builds and sells homes. His life style poses interesting challenges to having a home listed for sale. The Sisters, approached this individual with care, respect and the attention to detail that was required for this In-home consultation. This truly was a case where I needed a third-party to provide the “obvious” feedback, while I preserved my repeat client relationship. I would not hesitate to use Stage it to MOVE in the future.

Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that the property you staged at 1340, Avenue T in Ottawa sold very quickly…within the first week…and at 99% of asking! I know that the staging was a crucial part of the sale, and without the help of your talented team, this would have taken quite some time to sell! Thank you again, we look forward to the next project! cheers! Wendy Bell, ABR, E-Pro, Broker of Record, Best Ottawa Homes Team, Keller Williams VIP Realty, Brokerage, Ottawa, Ontario.

We really needed a Staged for Living Consultation. Cathy provided me with tips on new paint colour selections. She was gentle in guiding me into the NOW and away from my 80′s decorating flare that I had carefully completed for my Kitchen/Living and Dining room. My children are now proud to bring their friends over to our home, as it is now the home that reflects their generation but allows me to feel at home as well. Thank you Cathy for your design suggestions and Paint colour selections.

Our cottage when we purchased it was something out of Martha Stuart’s handbook. Unfortunately, this did not suit our tastes, but we could not quite capture what we wanted while searching through magazines and endless trips to our favourite shops. Cathy worked with our ideas to bring a fresh new look to our Cottage that reflected our lifestyle and design tastes. Her Stage for Living consultation was valuable for our busy family. Stage it to Move offered us a turnkey project, by program managing all the aspects of our renovation. Her personal shopping allowed us the time to arrive at the cottage on the weekends and enjoy the fruits of Stage it to Move’s efforts. We now have the WOW factor we were looking for thanks to Stage it to Move.

We have rented this cottage for two years in a row…All I can say is WOW! When we came back for our third season… This is a totally different place. It is warm, bright and spacious. The dark panelling closed everything in, but the new painted walls and decluttered interior made us want to move in for good! I am going to have Stage it to Move come to my home for a consultation and a “Stage for Living” recommendation. Thank you for making our summer holidays even more memorable.
