Courtney has earned the Accredited Staging Professional designation (ASP). As part of her approach when listing homes, she consults with the homeowner about what steps they should take to ensure that their house looks its best when it goes on the market.
Staging is often confused with interior design - they are not synonymous, and a good staging plan works on many levels. Buyers will often make unconscious judgements about a house based on what they perceive the moment they walk in the door. When she stages, Courtney defines spaces and reduces visual clutter, which can mean either removing items from the home or harmonizing the home's interior by minimizing the variety of layers perceived when looking at the space (wood tones, wall color, etc.). A well-staged home is bright, clean, welcoming, and gives home buyers a positive first impression. Besides knowing that her staging work can help her clients sell their homes faster and for a higher price, Courtney loves doing it!
