What can I say? I reached out to Creative Staging and they came from Sacramento to Dublin to stage my house. Creative Staging did a great job and I believe that it enhanced my house and help in getting my house sold in 11 days. I highly recommend them!

Karie and her daughter were so kind and professional to work. They made sure to take my input into account when designing the space for staging. The staging was warm, comfortable and suited the vibe of the place. Would highly recommend her.

I found Karie Dunahay at Creative Staging & Interior Design through a web search, and I’m so glad I did. Even though we never met in person, Karie made the entire process smooth, professional, and incredibly effective.
From our first phone call, she was responsive, clear, and had immediate availability. Her pricing was very competitive, and she kept me informed every step of the way. The staging looked fantastic and really highlighted the strengths of the home.
Thanks in large part to Karie’s work, my home went under contract in less than two weeks. If you're looking for a home stager who is reliable, efficient, and great at what she does—even remotely—I highly recommend Karie. She exceeded my expectations and played a big role in the successful sale.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
If I am your Realtor and list your home I will provide "FREE" Staging. Otherwise, if your home is vacant and you just need staging my pricing is:
Partial Staging starts at $500-$1,000.
Full Staging starts at $1,500-$3,000 (Depending upon the size of the home.) This includes entranceway, kitchen, bar area, living room, dining room, family room, all bathrooms, hallways, fireplace mantel etc.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I offer "FREE" complimentary consultation. Where I can come to your home and we can meet and discuss my services that would be the best fit for you.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been in business for over 14 years and have my Real Estate license. All 14 years I've received the prestigious 5-Star Real Estate Award in the Sacramento Magazine. Also, I have worked as a Project Manager for clients that flip homes and/or previous tenants have left their rental in horrific conditions. Then, I Supervise the Rehab of a home. I have a team of workers that I bring in such as: contractors, painters, flooring installers, roofers, landscapers, handymen, Etc. I get all estimates for the owner's and supervise all work to the owner's satisfaction. Once completed I provide staging, professional photography and list your home for top dollar!
