Virtual Photo Staging This service places stylish furniture, artwork and décor into photos of vacant properties. It serves as an economical choice for showing your listing as a desirable, well designed space. We can create rooms of any style, from modern to traditional. The most realistic virtually staged houses start with professionally taken photos. If vacant photos are not available for a property, we offer item removal.

We can remove light furniture and clutter from your photo to make the room “vacant” to allow for better staging.

Cleaning and Decluttering Market Ready Cleaning Our cleaning services make sure your home makes the best possible first impression and makes the selling process a snap. With over 35 years of combined experience in high-end residential and commercial cleaning, we know how to efficiently prepare your home for sale with a deep clean.

Decluttering We help neutralize the home regarding personal items or taste. Distractions are removed to allow buyers a blank canvas on which to project their own style. This is an important step in preparing your home for the market to ensure it shows at its very best the first time.

Professional Organizing

Inspired Organizing will lead you through a three step process to increase your level of organization and decrease your feelings of being overwhelmed.

You will learn how to zero in on your goals for the space, identify your organizing style, and learn how to maintain your system. We can also help you establish a system for downsizing items, supply resources for distributing unwanted items and creative ideas for saving treasures. You need a space that functions for your lifestyle and Inspired Organizing can help you create an environment that brings you peace.

Unpacking & Packing Services Our unpacking services help you to seamlessly settle into your new home by thoughtfully placing your belongings and arranging items in cabinets, closets, and drawers. All items are organized according to your instructions, making everything in your home easy to find.

Our packing services are tailored to those homeowners undergoing a renovation project.

We ensure that items are organized and easily identifiable both during the storage and unpacking of your household. Our team will carefully label each container accordingly and provide a corresponding inventory list.

Additional organization assistance available at an hourly rate.

Testimonials “

She has a real gift. Her personality is a great balance of professionalism and fun and she immediately made me comfortable. She was able to quickly remove the over-whelm that I was feeling about getting our house ready to sell and gave great advice about what to change without it feeling like criticism. I highly recommend her services. - Ashley

“

We wanted our house to sell as quickly as possible. Our stager came in and gave us a list of very specific things to do and she selected the best paint color. She came back after painting, moved things around, and our house looked amazing!! The photographs really showed off it’s best features. Our house had two offers within 36 hours and sold at full asking price. Her input and expertise was invaluable in helping us to put our best foot forward right off the bat at listing.” - Laurie

They were wonderful to work with and talented at finding and using things already owned by the homeowner to stage the house for selling. They are reliable, friendly and they enjoy their work and the people they interact with. I was happy to have met them and would definitely recommend them to others looking to stage a home for selling.” - Isabelle Thank you so much! It’s amazing what can be done with virtual staging! - Jane
