What is property styling?
Property styling (also called home staging) involves preparing your home for a successful sale by using curated furniture, artwork and accessories to enhance the space. Our goal is to create a warm, inviting and aspirational feel that appeals to buyers and helps your property stand out during the campaign.
Why should I style my home before selling?
Buyers shop with emotion. Beautifully styled homes photograph better, feel more spacious and create a stronger emotional connection, which often leads to more interest, more competition and a higher sales price. Styled homes also tend to sell faster.
Is property styling worth it?
For most homes, yes. Styling helps your property stand out online, creates emotional connection and often leads to stronger buyer competition. While results vary, many clients find styling deliers a strong return through faster sales and improved price outcomes.
What areas do you service?
We are based in Belrose and primarily style homes across the Northern Beaches and North Shore. We also take on select projects across wider Sydney depending on scope and availability.
What is the difference between Full and Partial styling?
Full Styling is ideal for vacant homes. We furnish and style the entire property using our premium furniture, artwork, rugs and accessories.
Partial Styling is perfect for lived in homes. We work with your existing items and enhance the space using our curated selections, providing guidance on what to keep, move or remove to achieve a cohesive, market ready look.
Can you only style certain rooms?
Yes. For partial styling, we often focus on key areas such as the living spaces, main bedroom and dining area. We will recommend the rooms that will deliver the greatest impact and return based on your home and target market.
How does the styling process work?
1. Onsite consultation (or we can use a floor plan)
2. Personal quote (full or partial with our suggestions)
3. Furniture/ accessory selection and planning
4. Install day- we style your home beautifully
5. Hire period begins
6. Pack up and collection- once the campaign is complete (usually a 6 week styling contract)
​
We manage everything from start to finish to make the process simple and stress free
How long does the installation take?
Most installations are completed within 3-4 hours. Larger homes may take one day. We always aim to minimise disruption and leave your home photo ready as efficiently as possible.
Do I need to be home during the installation?
No, many clients choose not to be home. We are trusted by both homeowners and agents and coordinate access with your sales agent if preferred.
Do you work with my real estate agent?
Yes. We work closely with your sales agent to coordinate access, installation timing and campaign requirements. Styling is most effective when it aligns with the sales strategy and we are experienced in working seamlessly with agents to ensure everything runs smoothly.
Hire period and extensions
How long is the hire period?
Our standard hire period is 4 weeks (paid) and 2 weeks complimentary (6 weeks total), which aligns with most sales campaigns.
​
What happens if my home does not sell within the hire period?
You can extend your hire period for a weekly extension fee. We will send a reminder before your hire ends and can arrange additional weeks or collection, depending on what best suits your campaign.
​
How much notice do you require for an extension or collection?
We require three business days notice to schedule an extension or organise collection of our styling stock
​
Preparation & Practicalities
What do I need to do before install day?
For full styling, the home should be clean, empty and ready for us to style.
For partial styling, we provide guidance on decluttering, editing furniture and preparing each space.
​
Do you hang artwork and mirrors?
Yes, all artwork and mirrors included in your styling package are hung by our team. We use a nail hook most of the time, or drill a hole with a plug if concrete /brick walls
What if something gets damaged?
Normal wear and tear is expected. Any significant damage will be assessed case by case, but we always approach this with fairness and understanding.
Please refer to our terms and conditions which will be provided to you with our quote.
Pricing and Payment
How much does property styling cost?
Pricing depends on the size of your home, whether it is a full or partial styling and the amount of furniture required. We provide a clear, personalised quote after viewing your property.
​
Do you require payment upfront?
Yes. Styling is paid upfront to secure your installation date and furniture/ accessory stock. Payment is made via invoice
​
Is GST included in your pricing?
Yes. All pricing includes GST unless otherwise stated in your quote or invoice
​
Results & Expectations
Will styling guarantee a higher sales price?
While no one can guarantee a price outcome, styling significantly increases buyer interest, helps your home shine online and typically leads to stronger offers. Our clients regularly achieve faster and more competitive results after styling.
​
How quickly can you install?
Ideally we request around 1- 2 weeks notice, depending on availability and campaign timing. If you have a tight schedule, please reach out as soon as possible, we will do our best to accommodate urgent installations
​
Do I get to choose my furniture?
We select all furniture and accessories to suit your home's architecture and target buyer demographic. This ensures a cohesive, professional result that presents your home in the best possible light.
​
Do you use real or artificial plants when styling a home?
We primarily use high quality artificial plants so your home looks fresh, polished and consistent throughout the entire sales campaign, without adding maintenance or stress for the vendor.
​
In some cases, we may incorporate real plants, where conditions allow. As with styling decisions, we choose what best supports your home and the strongest possible sales result.
​After the Sale
What happens once my home sells?
Simply let us know and we will organise collection at a mutually agreed time.
