At Heidi Ross Design, we specialize in staging luxury homes for sale. While not everyone has a million dollar home, staging houses for a real estate sale might seem like an unnecessary expense and hassle. But, staging your home doesn’t have to be hard—our professionals are with you every step of the way and help you maximize your profit in the greater Memphis area and get your home off the market quickly.
But it’s one thing to hear about what we do, and another to see it in action. That’s why we’re inviting you to a Realtor Open House on March 23rd 2021 from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm—to let you see what our staging services can do. This open house at 6500 Wild Oaks Drive in our home base of Memphis, TN was organized with James Harvey of Keller Williams. This open house is special not just because of the beautiful home, but because of how it was staged. For this open house, we used the homeowner’s own belongings. You might wonder: why do you need staging when you have a furnished house? What’s special about this kind of staging? Let’s break down these questions that many sellers might have. If I have furniture in my house, why do I need to hire a stager? When you think of staging, you might think of local home stagers bringing furniture into a totally vacant house—something that’s just not feasible for many people, today especially in the hot seller’s market. Often, the homeowner can’t leave the home before it’s sold. That’s why at Heidi Ross Design, we don’t just offer vacant home staging, but occupied house staging as well. But if you already have furniture in your home, why do you need a stager at all? There are a few reasons. The first: staged homes sell faster and for more money than non-staged homes. If you’re looking to sell your home and prevent it from sitting on the market, staging will get you the biggest bang for your buck in the shortest amount of time. Why might this staged home sell faster and for more money? One reason is that staging can give you an edge over comparable houses. Another is because a professional home stager knows how to make a space appeal to a variety of potential buyers. If you look around your home now, you’ll likely see evidence of your personal taste. But buyers often have trouble seeing past decorations, and may feel that they don’t like the space—when in fact, it’s just not styled the way they would design it. When it comes to home staging, living room areas can be a good example—while a lot of seating organized close together might work well for your family, a buyer might see the room as tight and small. How does occupied home staging work? Occupied home staging is different from the staging practices you might imagine right away. Rather than starting from scratch, occupied home staging uses the principles of interior design to reimagine the inside of the home. We use some of your special home furnishings, while also making the space appeal to potential buyers—whether that’s rearranging objects in the house, removing some furniture or decorations for storage, or adding some outside pieces to supplement or complement the existing furniture. This process helps potential buyers to imagine themselves in the space even while you continue to live there. At Heidi Ross Design, we also offer interior decorating services—that means you know our team has the experience and expertise to guide you through the process of staging an occupied home. Another great feature about hiring professional home stages is the peace-of-mind you get knowing that your home will photograph well. Without staging, it can be hard to take a picture that shows your home to its full advantage—but with staging, you can rest assured that buyers will get a good impression online. Come see what we do! If you’ve been wondering which company can provide staging for sale near me?, or considering staging prices, the Open House on March 23rd 2021 is a great way to get to know what we do.

At Heidi Ross Design, we stage luxury homes for sale—and this means keeping up with the trends that help sell houses for the maximum profit. One of the things that helps to move a house on the market? Besides the furniture and décor, color can have a big impact on how much a home sells for. Painting can increase your home’s value by over a thousand dollars. Why does paint matter? What colors can help sell your home? And how can we help? Here, we’ll break down these common questions that sellers have as they approach putting their homes on the market, and let you know what we can do to support you. Why do paint colors matter? When staging your home, you (or the stager you hire) are helping buyers to envision themselves living in the space. A bright orange room might be to your liking, but a buyer might cringe—and, worse, might think that they don’t like the house—when in fact, they just dislike the paint. Neutral colors that unite spaces in the house can be accented with fun pops of color, and can help buyers to imagine living in the home. Because whites, grays, or beiges aren’t distracting, buyers can take in the space and imagine styling it to their liking—which helps move your home. What colors are on trend for 2021? Every year, Pantone chooses a color of the year. This major US-based company standardizes colors across the design industry—this means that creators in web design, fashion, and interior design have a universal language to talk about colors, and know that they mean exactly the same shades. Pantone’s experts start early in the year to search for a color that reflects the year that’s gone by and speaks to the year coming up—not an easy task in the taxing year that was 2020. In response, Pantone has chosen two colors of the year for 2021, something the company hasn’t done since 2016, when they broke with their lone color tradition and selected pale blue Serenity and soft pink Rose Quartz. This year, Pantone has chosen two bold colors: a neutral achromatic shade called Ultimate Gray and a bright sunshine yellow called Illuminating. These colors were chosen for the feelings associated with the shades. The gray calls up images of nature and solid, dependable, earth-based elements, and the yellow calls up images of hope, warmth, and optimism. The two go well together, too, and when used in tandem, may remind us of the resilience that got us through 2020 and the hope that better things lie ahead. These two colors, as Pantone’s Color of the Year always does, will have a major impact on style in the year to come—expect to see muted grays and greiges and sunshiny yellows filter down from high fashion to everyday design. How might these colors be used in my home? When staging a bedroom—especially staging a small bedroom—greige can be your friend. Airy whites or grays can make the space look larger, soothing, and welcoming. The same goes for staging a bathroom for sale—a small space can be opened up with neutrals, or made welcoming and calming with a soft blue-gray. In home staging, living room and kitchen areas, especially when part of an open floor plan, can have a big impact on buyers, and soft, neutral colors can be a benefit—and trendy gray or greige might be a good choice. These neutral colors can help a buyer envision their own furniture and accessories in the space, and can lend a welcoming touch—one that can be accented with pops of color (like a bright sunshine yellow or orange). These on-trend colors appeal to a lot of people—another big plus when selling—and help avoid overwhelming the space with the seller’s personal style. Where can I find a luxury home staging near me?
