A1A Home Staging Blog

I just finished working on a fun project in Flagler County.  Almost 1.5 acres reaching from A1A to the Intracoastal (Fox's Cut).  A winding driveway through palms, oaks, and palmettos brings you to the 4 BR/2 BA home with 2 car garage.  Listed at only $435,000!  Click on the link below for photos...

I recently staged a wonderful home that had been on the market for 9 months.  During that time, there were a lot of showings, but little feedback and not a single offer.  The home is located in a very desirable, upscale neighborhood, where properties are still selling, but there is a lot of compe...

I am a homestager in N.E. Florida.  I attended an open house this past weekend (Memorial Day weekend) in a gated resort community that also offers vacation rentals.  I asked the realtor how the open house was going because my experience and word on the street was that open houses just aren't gett...
