STAGING
Staging is Not Interior Design
make your home stand out with custom staging
Staging and interior design are not the same, in fact, it is almost the exact opposite. Interior design reflects the owner’s personality, their life story and how they see themselves and how they want to be seen. Staging reflects the potential buyers, and in order to work, it must reflect as many potential buyers as possible. Buyers don’t want to buy someone else’s home: they want to buy their home.

We relocated from CA to IL in 2017. Leslie was one of the first people we met and she went out of her way to help us understand Chicago neighborhoods and the dynamics of the real estate market. She quickly understood our preferences and helped us narrow our search to the types of homes we would actually buy. Due to the relocation process our availability was limited, but Leslie worked around our challenging schedules and made appointments whenever it worked for us. After we selected our home Leslie helped us through the offer process until the very end. Recently, a friend also relocated to IL and I recommended Leslie to him without hesitation. She is great!
RELOCATION Leslie works closely with @relocation who has connections with over 50 different relocation management companies, serving literally hundreds of Chicagoland’s top firms. Along with her personal connections with local universities and hospitals. Leslie has access to relocation buyers from all over the world.
