No, staging is for all price points. With only 30 seconds to impress your client, let us teach you our proven steps. It doesn’t have to cost a lot of money to give a great first impression!

17. Why is it important to stage homes?

Staging can cost anywhere from a few hundred dollars to thousands of dollars. We will show you how to streamline your cost.

This depends on your goals and how you deliver your value proposition. You can charge the entire amount to the client, contribute a partial cost amount or cover the entire cost.

Not anymore! KW Style to Design has the leverage you need to streamline any project, whether it’s staging a home to sell or helping buyers with furnishing their new home.

21. What if the furniture I want to order is out of stock?

We understand that this can be frustrating. Unfortunately, we don’t control inventory, so we launch ten new designs weekly. You can also go through the design boards and see if you see anything similar to the item you love and purchase from that click-through link.
