“Hi Laney – must say you nailed it with the brown/blue/silver color scheme and furniture with a bit of a nautical theme. It is trendy and appealing to all age groups — I really like it!
Thank you again for being “spot on”! Please feel free to use this as an endorsement of your good and insightful work. – Marlene D., Caldecott Properties (Vacant Home Staging)

“The quality of materials and color choices made for really attractive photos and the virtual tour looks great as well. Thanks for all your hard work and advice.” – Vyas N., Realtor (Vacant Home Staging)

“We recently moved to a new house and because I saw that the housing market was strengthening I bought the new home before selling the old. As soon as we got the new home we began carting our stuff over and eventually the old home was just an empty shell. It felt soulless and empty and we weren’t getting multiple offers like we hoped we would, so we called several staging companies looking for bids and eventually chose Laney Nelson’s East Bay Staging.” Our choice of Laney was not strictly based on price. We felt she had the most comprehensive and professional bid, and she had a well thought out staging theme and strategy. We could tell that she had an artistic flair and an understanding of how to present our home in the best possible light and within a target budget. We were very satisfied with the speed at which she was able to stage the property (within a week) and reports from brokers were that the home showed fantastically. Within three weeks of staging the home was in contract. I would highly recommend contacting Laney Nelson for your staging needs.” – Ethan Z., Homeowner (Staged to Sell)

“Laney from East Bay Staging was top notch from the first phone call to the consult to the staging and follow up. She worked with our crazy schedule and produced results that were by far worth more than we invested. I am so happy we used a stager and more important that we used Laney at Easy Bay Staging.” – Holly T., Homeowner (Stage to Sell)

“Laney and her crew did a beautiful job staging my condo in Adams Point. We had an offer in 10 days! It had never looked so good. Her team were flexible, considerate and speedy moving in and out. I highly recommend East Bay Staging. Thanks again Laney!” – Cate C., Homeowner (Staged to Sell)

“Laney did an incredible job staging the house for us. We had a very tight deadline between moving and the first showing and she worked very hard to meet the deadlines and only a few days to prepare. Her design sense really appealed to potential buyers who visited and the photos of the rooms convinced many online “lookers” to stop by at the open houses. In the end it was plain from comments to our realtor that her efforts paid off by increasing the interest in the home and ultimately the selling price.” – Howard M., Homeowner (Staged to Sell)

“Laney was very good at staging and organizing my office space. She was very good at her work from the time she saw my disorganized & chaotic office space to the finish of the project. She is very punctual, hard working and had steps for what she planned to accomplish every day. She was fun to work with and this made the work a lot more fun. She is very creative and was able to change my office to a place that was a joy to work in and also very relaxing. I feel at peace being in my new space.” – Jeanie M., Homeowner (Office Redesign)

“East Bay Staging was a wonderful company to work with. Owner, Laney Nelson met with us very early in the process and gave good advice as we began to refresh and update the property and prepare it for listing. Our list date was fluid and Laney was willing to accommodate our needs. Her design brought an elegance and comfort to each room, and gave buyers an honest view of the property. Her staff was terrific and took such care of the home when they staged, and later when everything was removed. They were efficient, respectful, and provided an invaluable service at a reasonable price. I will definitely call East Bay Staging again!” – Margaret G., Joslin Real Estate

“Wish we could give more than five stars to Laney, she is superb. We worked with her to stage our home for listing, and we are so happy with the results. Laney is a true professional, from the first contact to the final key handoff. She was able to quickly determine what would bring out the best in our house, and, more importantly, what would help buyers envision living in the space. Her color choices, style and scale of furniture and accessories were perfect. Everyone coming through our open house commented time and time again on the staging. Among our family and friends there was some doubt as to whether the cost of staging was worth it. Our house sold a few days after listing, bringing in five offers, all over asking price. Now even our doubters sold on staging. Having Laney stage our home was most definitely the best decision we made.” – Mama B. (Staged to Sell)

“In April, I decided to have a professional stager help sell my house. After sorting potential companies online, I called East Bay Staging to come and review what was needed. From the moment Laney walked into the house she was the person I felt certain could get the job done right. She chose the colors for the new paint and carpets, and made a myriad of small inexpensive suggestions that enhanced both the interior and exterior of the house. Her use of space showed the house off so that anyone seeing it could imagine there decorating ideas would work there – The house sold in the first week. Well over two hundred people came through the house and ALL said it was one of the most beautifully shown houses they had ever seen. Laney and her team were consumate professionals from the first visit to the day they came and patched the nail holes in the walls. I would recommend Laney and East Bay Staging to anyone without hesitation.” – Bill (Occupied Home Staging)
