The Value of Organizing  

Home organization is on trend! Just look at the many Netflix programs, books, and seminars promoting a simpler, more organized life. Editing & styling personal belongings makes your home look & feel bigger. It elevates your living spaces so that they can perform better for you and your lifestyle.  Excess belongings can make a home feel cluttered and cramped and heighten anxiety. Having everything in its place saves time and money. Creating negative (empty) space allows the eye to travel & rest and highlights your home's most beautiful features. After all "the secret of happiness you see, is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less" -Socrates

The Value of Styling

So many times we wait until we are ready to sell our home to edit, paint, make small repairs, redecorate, and fully enjoy our most valuable possession. A Sense of Place will create beautifully styled spaces for you, while you are living in your home, so that you can enjoy your home's full potential. Our mission is to help you edit, organize, & style your belongings so that you don't have to be a "stuff manager" and instead, can focus your energy on your passions, family, and goals.  My goal is to create aesthetically pleasing spaces in your home that encourage rest and enjoyment.

The Value of Staging

Staging your home is an important and valuable step in preparing your home to sell quickly and for top dollar. Homes that are staged typically sell for 20% more on average than homes that are not staged (National Association of Realtors 2021). Staging also helps buyers to imagine themselves living in the home, increases perceived value, and minimizes any negatives, while accentuating the positives of the property.  Choosing neutral colors for walls and furniture that is sized and scaled to fit a home creates a more spacious and inviting living space. The average investment for vacant staging is 1% (less for occupied staging) of the sale price while the average return is 5% to 15% over asking! (RESA/Real Estate Staging Association)
