Portland Home Staging Services

Room Solutions Staging offers a variety of professional services to homeowners, builders, and realtors; we're flexible and want to work within your time frame and budget.  If you have a service request that isn't listed here, just let us know how we can help you.  

Verbal Staging Consultation (Occupied Home): 

This service is geared towards the homeowner (or Realtor) for an Occupied home that will be going on the market. We walk through the property with the homeowner or listing agent while you take notes of our recommendations for optimum furniture placement, creating focal points, easy cosmetic improvements, paint colors that buyers love, light fixture replacements, window coverings, deep cleaning & de-cluttering, curb appeal & landscaping tips, etc.  We also provide written tips on preparing for the Open House and keeping your home ready for showings. Up to 2 hours of time; within 20 miles of SW Portland – $220. 

Optional Service: After your Consultation, if you'd like us to return after you've completed your "To Do" list, we can return to give your home a final hands-on staging service to ensure that it looks warm and inviting both for the online photos as well as for potential buyers.  Billed @ $85/hr.

Note:  If you prefer a Written Consultation, we can provide one that contains the same information as the Verbal report – the cost varies depending on the size of the house: $300 up. 

Electronic Consultation (E-Staging):  

If your property is located outside our service area, we can provide a detailed Comprehensive Consultation Report. Using photos and room dimensions you provide, we will advise you on which pieces of furniture to keep, which to remove, and how to showcase the space for maximum appeal.  The cost of this service varies depending on how many rooms we're consulting on.

Full or Partial Staging Services:  

We stage Vacant homes using our extensive inventory of quality furnishings.  We also stage  Occupied homes, working with and editing the seller's furniture, and suggesting any additional accessories that may be necessary to create an appealing look for the target buyer. The investment in these services depends on the size of the home, the number of rooms staged and what furnishings are included.  Because every project is unique, we're happy to provide a no-obligation staging proposal for your property.

Full Day or Half Day Home Makeover (ReStyling) Projects:  

If you'd like a fresher look in your home or just don't know how to best configure the furniture, our home makeover service may be just what you need. This service is less expensive than hiring a traditional interior decorator, and very effective! We can help you make your home warm and inviting, and can also suggest where to buy the best accessories (or we can do the shopping for you).  For a no-obligation quotation just give us a call @ 503-246-1800.

 Shopping Service:  

If you're too busy to shop for home décor, or aren't sure what's needed to improve the look of your home, we can do the shopping for you. Using our intimate knowledge of the local furnishings market, we can find the items you need (often at bargain prices), deliver them to your home and properly arrange them to fit the space. We also have Designer Discounts at multiple local furnishings stores that we’re happy to pass on to our clients.  Shopping service is billed at $85.00/hr.

Ready to make your home (or office) the talk of the town?  Contact us at 503-246-1800 or email:  maureen@roomsolutions.com for more information about any of the services listed here.
