Client Testimonials
"Thank you Kathy for staging our home, you are amazing!
The things you came up with were things we never would have thought of. We had friends come over and said that our house looked like a model home. Having someone who could honestly see our home’s potential made all the difference in the world. First we resisted some of your recommendations, but only after following through on everything we were able to see what "Your expert eye" had already seen. We honestly feel that your staging/decorating of our home had a huge impact on its sale. We would like to also add that we will be naming our first child Kathy. Now would you please come and decorate our new home?
I would recommend Kathy with unbreakable confidence that she will make your “house” a “home” Thank you Kathy!"
I forgot to mention that our house is sold :)"

"Meeting with Kathy was great. Some of her ideas and comments really made a major difference in getting the house to sell quickly. She pointed out that the house was no longer a home but an investment and that it wasn't personal but instead was an investment decision to remove personal items and de-clutter. This reframing made making the changes much easier. She also mentioned that de-cluttering was a great way to get an early start on packing. She moved a few things around and rooms looked totally different. We put the house on the market and the first day we were willing to accept offers, we got an offer and sold our house. The work up front sold our house quickly and easily since we didn't have the house on the market for long. I would highly recommend her services and would definitely use her again if I were to move."
Sincerely,
Julie, Newmarket

"This was my first experience with home staging. I was pleasantly surprised at how smooth the process was. Having Kathy stage my home created a lot of attention which contributed to the very quick sale of my home. I was still receiving phone calls from agents even after the house had sold. I look forward to working with Kathy again in my new home as I appreciate her ideas and recommendations."

"My house was listed on and off with different realtors for over one year with no offers. After Kathy staged my home, it not only sold in six days, it sold for $118,000.00 over asking price! I loved everything that she did to my home. In fact, I asked if I could keep her accessories for a few more weeks even though the house had sold because it looked so good. I have asked Kathy to help me with recommendations in my new home. I highly recommend Kathy to anyone that is in the process of selling their home."

"Dear Kathy:
I am writing to thank you for all your effort and expertise in getting our house ready for the 'staging' recently. The Open House was a great success and the house was sold quickly.
To begin with I would like to be quite honest with you. Your taste in furnishings and accessories and mine are not the same. I am much more traditional (old fashioned) and love the antiques and inherited pieces of furniture and pictures that give the house a certain cosiness. You are more modern and eclectic which I recognize is what the general public like.
However, having said that, I would like to congratulate you on the design you came up with which was so successful. I appreciate your enthusiasm, insight and hard work on our behalf. You certainly have a good 'eye' for what is required when putting a house on the market.
Thank you, Kathy.”

Kathy:
"Thank you so much for your wonderful touch in helping to transform my
clients "batchelor style" home into a warm and inviting family space. He
really appreciated how you were able to combine many of the furnishings he
had, with some special touches, to help pull it all together. You were able
to work within his limited budget, but still managed to help him get more
for his home than originally expected. You made my client feel comfortable
and confident through the entire process! Great job, Kathy!"

Dear Kathy,
"Just a note to let you know how grateful I am that you responded first so
fast in coming to stage the home in Aurora. From a home that was cared for
but dated and crowded, you changed it into a bright spacious home. The
transformation was lovely without too much out of pocket expenses for my
client. We sold the home in approximately a month in a slow market at a
fair market price. You definitely have proved to me that staging a home
is important. Many thanks for your valuable services. I look forward to
calling upon you again… "

Dear Kathy,
"In order to sell a house you should show all the great features of the house and not the furnishings, this is what staging is all about". That is what Kathy said when we first met her. Yes Kathy you were right, you changed our house completely with very minimal time and cost and the house has been sold without any problems.
Thank you Kathy for your prompt response and for your professional look. I highly recommend Kathy for anyone planning to sell a house.
Ghassan and Mouna, Markham

"Kathy's consultation and advice regarding a color choice for my office has inspired me and has given me a clear sense of direction in redecorating it. She was also great in suggesting how to use existing pieces of furniture to emphasize the desired look so that I could stay within my budget, rather than the expense of buying new items. Kathy was also very knowledgeable in suggesting the final touches to pull it all together and where to find these items at a reasonable cost.”

"We would like to let you know that you have done a marvelous job redesigning our rooms. This house (when I moved in with Mike) felt cold and empty. Today, thanks to you, it feels wonderful, warm, cozy and full of love. We appreciate every single detail. You easily combined our favourite things and our mix of furniture. Thank you very much for making us feel soooooo good in this space.”
Patti & Mike, Oakville
”Thank you for redesigning our home. When we purchased this new furniture we didn’t realize how big it was and were so frustrated by trying to make it fit without looking crowded. You managed to do just that and now it feels right. You also managed to expose the hidden potential of our older pieces and for this we are truly grateful!”
Claudette & Larry Herron, Brampton
"I’m very pleased with my new look. Everything feels lighter and more streamlined in the rooms that were redesigned. Even where furniture wasn’t changed much, the rearranging and new placement of my more “arty” pieces and accessories shows them off to their best advantage. Definitely way better than the previous hodgepodge!. But most of all, my newly redesigned living room is so much more welcoming. In fact, a friend of mine dropped by the evening of the redesign and his first words as he entered my home were as follows: “This is much more inviting than how it was arranged before!”
