We recently completed staging this very chic and modern condo loft in Valley Village, Los Angeles.
My clients are real estate investors who understand the added value that home staging brings to any real estate listing. Since I've staged several condos and model homes in Pasadena and Glendale for themthey've experienced first hand that home staging will help their listings sell faster and for more money. As a Los Angeles home stager, I have to be familiar with all areas of the Los Angeles area and understand who the buyers are and what they are looking for. This loft style condo has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms on 2 floors. I wanted to show there was enough space to have a comfortable seating area and dining table as well as the counter bar in the living room/kitchen great room.
This home is not yet listed. As soon as it is, I'll update this post

The pictures look great. A lot of people don't realize the added value of having a well staged home. In some areas a nicely staged property can increase the sales price by up to 10%.
Great job Michelle, I'm in Portland OR and have an appreciation for your approach to know the Buyer in any given area.

Great looking space - I'm guessing the target buyer is young, vaguely Boho? Julie
Thank you Von!
Carol, knowing buyer demographic is very important info for home stagers to understand so they can stage appropriately. Thanks!
Thank you, Julia. Yes, based on the area and the architectural style, its definitely a more artsy, youthful crowd.
Hi Michelle - Very well done. The place looks clean and bright, and wide open but comfortable. Should sell quickly!
Any seller serious about selling should know that staging is the only way to go. It will most always help sell the home faster and for more money.
Looks very nice Michelle! Should be sold soon!! Great looking kitchen cabinets!
Beautiful staging! Love the colors. You always do such a great job on countertops.
I hope you're right, Susan
John: I agree.
I wish I could take credit for the kitchen cabinets, Cathy Lee :o)) Its always nice to have a nice architectural design to work with.
Thank you, Wanda!
Looks great, Michelle. I particularly liked how you mixed Modern w/ touches of traditional enthnics like the red woven area rug.
Thanks, Connie. I like to mix it up so it creates more interest, and you can't beat that chili pepper red in the rug.
Another incredible home staging, Michelle. I too like the use of all the warm colors. I'm sure the investor was pleased.
Kathy
Thanks, Kathy. The face of the bar was painted a brick color, so I keyed off of that.
Awesome job, great photos! :)
Hi Michelle, I agree that it is so important in these large wide open rooms to show potential buyers where they can carve out some space for a dining area. Great job on this one, as always!
Hi Stephen: Thank you. I take the photos myself and provide them to the listing agent at no cost. We're located in Pasadena and I stage throughout LA County, although I specialize in the 210/134/101 corridor. Since you're in Pasadena, we should meet up.
Diana: Since the unit has 3 bedrooms, I figured children might be involved. I'd like to think people still have sit-down family dinners, even in this day and age so I thought it important to provide a space for that. Thanks!
Just another example of why you are RESA's 2010 Professional Stager Of The Year! Thanks for sharing your work. You're an inspiration!!
Very pretty Michelle, love the colors. Is that a prop TV or a real one?
Barb:0)) Thanks!
Shar: Thank you. It is a prop TV. I purchased about 10 of them when a local furniture chain went out of business a couple of years ago.
Rats, I was going to ask where you got the TV in hopes there was a great website. I haven't found any that were much cheaper than the real thing. I'll have to keep looking.
