"Looks just like a model home!"  Those were the Realtor's words used to describe this charming home in the Ballantyne area of South Charlotte when it was listed on the market after home staging by Carolina Spaces.


After a fresh coat of paint and a kitchen facelift, this previous rental was still lacking a "wow" factor.  The vacant rooms appeared small, and felt cold and uninviting.  Carolina Spaces furnished and staged the main living areas, the master bedroom and two secondary bedrooms to showcase this home in its best light.  The results were immediate!

 
 
Within 2 days of staging, this $289,000 Charlotte area home was under contract.  
Staging success!


Don't let your property sit on the market un-staged, undergoing price reductions while you're still paying the carrying costs.  Let our award-winning home staging help your home sell faster and for the most money possible!

Charlotte, NC's leading home staging and interior design company, Carolina Spaces, recently had the pleasure of assisting the homeowners of the historic home "Mint Hill" in Concord, NC with staging their home for sale.

The owners of this 5,000+ sq.ft. historic home had previously listed the estate for sale twice, for a total of 462 consecutive days on the market with no offers.  Joan Inglis, owner and lead designer of Carolina Spaces, was called in to help.  She walked much of the 15.24-acre grounds and toured the main house and outbuildings with the sellers, making recommendations on what needed to be done to the interior and exterior of the property, including landscaping of the grounds, to prepare the estate for sale.  Carolina Spaces was also brought in for hands-on staging of the main home, as well as providing appropriate furnishings for some of the vacant rooms.

Carolina Spaces took some time to reflect on the past 3 months and all of the home staging projects we had the honor of completing.  During the second quarter of 2016, our team had the opportunity to:

  • Provide DIY home staging consultations to sellers and Realtors®
  • Furnish and Stage beautiful vacant properties (resale, new construction and model homes) with our inventory of new and name brand furnishings
  • Stage lived-in properties using the homeowner's own furnishings - supplementing where needed
  • Provide renovation recommendations and material selections to homeowners, new home buyers and real estate investors
  • Create working relationships with new clients! 

After reviewing our successes - and with many projects to choose from - our team picked our favorite Home Staging project of Q2!

The Realtor® for this resale property in Charlotte reached out to Carolina Spaces to help get the lived-in home market ready.  Our team viewed the property to devise a staging plan and make updating suggestions.  In this case, a new paint color was recommended to freshen up the space. 

As part of our staging plan, we determined which furnishings would stay, which would be better relocated in another area in the home, and which needed to be moved to storage.  

For lived-in Staging, Carolina Spaces uses the homeowner's furnishings wherever possible to save the homeowner the cost of furniture rental.  In this case, it was agreed that some supplemental furniture pieces and accessories would be brought in to complete the rooms.  At Carolina Spaces, we fill in the blanks! 


Our staging was appropriate for the style, location and the $205,000 price point of the home.  And it worked!   This Charlotte, NC home received multiple offers immediately and was under contract within 24 hours!  And it sold for $1,000 over list price!

Professional home staging by Carolina Spaces can help your home sell faster and for the highest price possible!  Don't risk losing money with a price reduction!

The Carolina Spaces team saw our home staging services lead to many successful sales during the first quarter of 2016. With dozens of homes staged and sold, it was hard to highlight just one. So, we've picked our top three favorite home staging projects of the quarter!
The Bronze goes to a Rock Hill, SC home staging project!
 
The homeowner of this $224,900 property in Rock Hill, SC recognized the need for professional guidance to get this home show-ready. Carolina Spaces came in, toured the entire property with the homeowner, and created a step-by-step DIY home staging plan to show off the home's features and attract potential buyers. Home staging worked, and this property was under contract in less than 25 hours!
 
The Silver goes to this Charlotte, NC home staging project!
 
 

This stunning $674,900 new construction in Charlotte, NC sat on the market for 9 months as a home builder's vacant spec home. Feedback from over 200 showings all came back consistent - the family room was too small. So, Carolina Spaces was called in to help! We brought in our stunning inventory and staged the property, paying close attention to the family room. Buyers have a hard time visualizing size and scale in a vacant property (truly, only 10% can visualize the potential of a property!), so we ensured that our staging showed room function and potential furniture placement. Our home staging worked, and this property was under contract in 19 days!

And...The Gold goes to this Charlotte, NC home staging project!
 
 
Both the homeowner and Realtor of this $242,000 condo in the NODA area of Charlotte, NC understood the importance of properly staging a home prior to listing on the market. They trusted Carolina Spaces' full-service home staging to transform the vacant condo into an appealing space to the NODA buyer.  Within hours of listing, multiple offers poured in, and this property was under contract in 0 days!
