Testimonials
"Tiffani and Laurie are incredible! I highly, highly recommend them. My experience was that they were working very hard for me. The home was so beautifully presented that multiple offers came in within 48 hours. Their expense was well worth it." - Holly O., Deer Park
"I have been a busy real estate broker since 1986 and have incorporated some form of staging into my marketing plan my entire career. It became even more important as studies showed that 98% of today’s buyers begin their home search online. Great photos are the key to getting a home sold in any market, but especially today when the average buyer is 34 years old. To ensure that my listings shine above the rest, I added Laurie and Tiffani to my real estate team and made professional staging an integral component of my marketing plan. They truly turn mayhem into magic every single time AND my clients love them! They do everything from making what sellers have look its best to shopping for them to ensure the property sparkles. Their long list of skills includes, but is not limited to, paint color selection, furniture placement, finding ideal light fixtures/ artwork/counters/ rugs, redoing entire bookcases, sprucing up outdoor spaces, editing owners’ “stuff,” and more. Many of my sellers appreciate their talents so much that they hire them to make their next home look its very best. They work well with any personality, any type of property, and have made seemingly hopeless causes look inviting and exciting. Their collaborative process is fascinating, and the results always exceed my expectations. Whether you have a vision or are completely clueless, Laurie and Tiffani will transform your space from “OK” to “Oh WOW!”" - Lori Rowe, Coldwell Banker
"Tiffani and Laurie at Engaging Staging are great at taking what I already have and making it look better by moving things around and adding to it. They have a gentle but honest approach to letting you know that something doesn’t work and needs to go! And they work within your budget. They brought in items they purchased at local stores and placed them in my room giving me options. The items that didn’t work they took away with them. It was so fun!! And my home was transformed into a beautiful, comfortable place to live." - Laurie P., Lake Barrington
"I cannot express enough how grateful my husband and I are for the incredible work done by Laurie and Tiffani from Engaging Staging. Selling our home was a daunting task (especially since I was already out of state), and we knew that presentation was key in today's competitive real estate market. From the moment we started working with Laurie and Tiffani, we knew we were in excellent hands. They didn't just stage our house; they transformed it into a dreamy, inviting space that felt like our home, only better. Their attention to detail and keen eye for design turned our property into a showpiece that we could hardly recognize. It was an absolute pleasure to work with them as they guided us through every step of the staging process. The magic really showed in the photography for the realtor’s website. The photos of our home were nothing short of stunning. Their staging helped capture the essence of each room, showcasing its full potential and highlighting its best features, making our house stand out in the online listings. The results speak for themselves - our house sold in a mere 5 days! I firmly believe that the rapid sale was largely due to the outstanding work of Laurie and Tiffani. Their expertise and dedication to their craft are unparalleled, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Engaging Staging to anyone looking to sell their home quickly and at the best possible price. Thank you, Laurie and Tiffani, for making the process of selling our home not only stress-free but also incredibly successful. Your talent and professionalism are truly remarkable, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. You made our house look its absolute best, and for that, we are forever grateful." - Crystal B., Deer Park
"Engaging Staging is AMAZING! Laurie is a gifted consultant who works magically with color and space. She listened carefully to what my partner and I wanted our home to look like and she made it happen! And I LOVE her ideas! Laurie continues to work, even when she's not in our home. She sends links to ideas that she finds so that we can continue to consult remotely. Laurie is a hard worker and very reliable. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who is looking for a decorator/stager/designer. In fact, I have already recommended Engaging Staging to MANY of my friends and family!" - Laura K., Evanston
