Testimonials

About a Staging Consultation:

We have had nothing but the best experience working with Simply Staged! Sharon and her team are extremely professional and thorough. They take the time to get to know the home and the client and what they are willing to do and make suggestions accordingly. The staging report they provide is very detailed and most of our sellers even use it as a checklist to help get their home ready. I have worked with many stagers and Simply Staged is the best by far, I would highly recommend them!  ~Kristin Benyon, Holz Real Estate Group

We have worked with Simply Staged on hundreds of home sales, and have never wanted to make a switch because they are industry leaders, and provide excellent results to our clients at a very reasonable rate. ~Bryan McWhite, Realtor for The Pomerleau Team

Sharon, I wanted to say thank you for your services. You are a delightful person and your passion is evident. Loved all the suggestions. ~Paula Lougee, Lakeville

Sharon has a great understanding of color and placement of items around the home.  She gives you a very detailed list of changes that make your home ready for prospective homeowners.  ~Karen Rao, Stillwater

Our client needed an honest 3rd party evaluation of their property’s interior condition.  Much of my advice had fallen on deaf ears.  The evaluation that was prepared by Simply Staged hit home with my clients and their family memberes.  This resulted in some improvements and a price reduction.  The home sold shortly thereafter.  Thanks for your help!  ~Larry Eberhard, Realtor for Keller Williams Premier Realty

I spent most of Saturday making the changes per your report….THE PLACE LOOKS GREAT!  Thanks for all of your advice.  ~Bob Schlichter, Deephaven

Melanie is awesome.  She’s sensitive to my situation, and clearly knows how to maximize ones efforts.  I’m really impressed with her.  This gives me great guidance to work from! ~Claudia Rudolph, Hamel

Thanks Melanie. This is a great service.  I talked with my wife about it today and it’s really a relief to get some advice from an expert and take some of the decision making off our hands. ~Dave Podany, Ramsey

Melanie, we think the place looks great and wanted to thank you personally for your help.  We implemented every one of your recommendations except re-tiling the bathroom shower.  Again, things look great! ~Mike Gust, Minneapolis

Melanie, Great experience, very helpful.  There was a lot to do and we didn’t get to it all, but we did accomplish a lot on the list and we accepted an offer today! ~Gary Matteson, Zimmerman

Melanie did a great job, she listened to the projects we were already planning on and added suggestions along the way.  I like the fact that the report complimented the different rooms as well as added suggested changes.  The links to the product suggestions and the pictures are really helpful.  ~Terry Brooks, Minneapolis

Jessica was very real in all areas and easy to work with.  She made the experience very pleasant. ~Heidi Russell, Lonsdale

Sharon, I can’t thank you enough for your input today on staging.  You are truly just what we needed!  Thank you for your smart ideas incorporating what is already in place and then bumping things up to a new level.  You are truly amazing.  ~Becky Hanson, St. Paul

Melanie, thank you so much for all of your input, much appreciated and so helpful!  I never would have thought of what you suggested and wish I had done all many moons ago. ~Shelly Babusek, Chaska

Sharon, thank you so very much for coming to our home and helping us with getting our house ready to sell.  Your consultation report was very helpful and  we felt the experience was very pleasant, efficient and informative. ~Bev McMahon, Little Canada

Melanie, I want to thank you for your excellent service while working with my elderly parents. Your command of the consultation was impressive. You seamlessly handled sensitive areas and questions with grace and professionalism. This was a confirming reminder to me why the Pomerleau Team uses you and why I, as a solo agent, will continue to use Simply Staged. Thanks again! ~Jon Speich, JP Willman Realty

Sharon is awesome!  Professional, polite and quick. She went through everything with us, then went back on her own. She made us a list and provided suggestions with links.  Definitely worth doing. ~Craig Brinkman, Woodbury

Good morning Melanie, I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to go through our home to help us make some improvements for our showing. We took the time to go through your list this weekend and we were impressed by your ideas. Keep up the great work! ~Deb Gustafson, St. Michael

About a Staging:

You did a brilliant job!  All my friends and family raved about how good the pictures of the house looked.  We had 40 showings in just 3 days, I think the staging really helped bring them in.  I will definitely be recommending your company whenever possible.  Thank you.
~Joan Norris, St. Paul

Sharon, I want to personally thank you for the wonderful job you did staging our home!  The house sold in 2 weeks and the excitement of buyers and Realtors when they saw the house helped keep the momentum and excitement going!  I am convinced that your personal touch not only helped us reach our sales price, but moved the house so quickly!  ~Peggy McAloon, Eagan

After 5 months on the market, several price reductions, and no success differentiating our house from the others in the neighborhood, we finally struck gold with Simply Staged.  Sharon’s suggestion son home improvements and the tasteful design of the staging really hit home with the buying public – we got an offer after only 3 days!
~E. Ingram, St. Louis Park

Simply Staged did a wonderful job of evaluating our needs, giving us options, and then taking care of everything.  The quality of furniture and accessories matches those anywhere.  ~Chris Reff, Realtor for Keller Williams Premier Realty

After having our vacant house spend about four months out there in a buyer’s market with no bites, we decided to try staging.  Simply Staged was very easy to work with and responsive to our needs.  They made our place look wonderful, especially helping to make a tiny dining room look spacious – this had been a big turn-off for several prospective buyers in the previous months.  The very first couple that saw the home after the staging furniture and accessories were moved in made an offer and bought the house!  This was definitely money well spent.  Thanks!  ~Mike Hurben, Bloomington

Thanks for doing such a nice job.  I believe it helped us get a sale.  I only wish we had done it a few months ago! ~Melissa Munoz, Maplewood

Your service, follow up and use of online tools are great.  Excellent service like yours is rare and greatly appreciated.  ~Dan Jurek, Minneapolis

We did everything Melanie recommended, got multiple offers above listing price, & many positive comments about appearance! Thanks!  ~Jeff and Heather Dahmen, Andover

Sharon has a special eye for the possibilities of a home.  She complemented us on what we’d done well, and then, told – and showed – us how we might do better.  We followed her advice and sold to the second potential buyer to view her/our work. For more than our asking price! ~Patrick Shannon, St. Paul

About a Staged for Living:

We have been in our home for 4 years.  I needed some ideas with color and furniture placement.  I also wanted some help pulling the house together so the rooms, furniture and color scheme flowed.  Sharon did an excellent job in listening to our objectives.  She was able to use our current furnishings and gave us some great ideas on what to look for as we change rooms in the future.  She gave us a plan and I love how our house is pulling together.  ~Vicki & Bill Blincoe, Maple Grove

Sharon came to our home and did a staged for living consultation.  It was exactly what I needed!!!  I was so excited when I got my report that I passed it around to everyone to read during a summer BBQ party that we had.  It was the talk of the whole party!  I have already incorporated many of the suggestions that Sharon made.  I can’t wait to do the rest!  Each time I read it, I get motivated to make more exciting changes to our home.  Sharon has a special talent for visualizing a room and putting that into words.  I would highly recommend Sharon to anyone looking for an interior home makeover!! 
~Shelly Hill, Stillwater

WOW! This is exactly what I was looking for!! Thank you so much for all the insight and helpful information.  I will be making changes in a lot of areas very soon. I keep looking at everything over and over.  Now which area to tackle first 🙂  I truly appreciate your time and expertise!!
~Jennifer Terpstra, Maple Grove

Everything ran so smoothly from the expert advice to the easy payment. You also saved me hundreds of dollars in sourcing the right pieces that I really like, at a better price.
~Barbara Scherer, Eagan
