When it comes to timing or evaluating the real estate market, I will leave that to the Realtors and other experts to dissect and analyze, from my “Stager’s” point of view, we see the demand of staging goes up and down in respond to many factors; in the uneasy economy of today, the demand for our service actually picked up quite a bit, and as people get ready for the holidays like the Memorial Day we just had, the demand of staging falls sharply; and when K-12 schools goes on break, having kids hanging around at home definitely alter the parents’ plans on putting the house on the market.

Perhaps someone out there can help enlighten me, how come after a relatively flat May, we are seeing a huge spike for staging in June? We had 6 staging appoints yesterday, 3 today and 3 more tomorrow, all want to be staged in early June. What’s going on? Spring and summer have always been good month for the staging business, but such drastic difference between May/June is a bit unusual…

Curious about the market, and very happy to work on all those new projects.

Victor and us have collaborated for few months now, and he (www.victorlinphoto.com) impresses us every time! Don’t let Victor’s rather young age fool you, he has been playing with cameras before he even started Algebra! Victor’s passion has been with outdoor photography, he has set foot in countless national parks and who-knows-where deserted places around the country. According to him, his favorite thing to do is to take panoramic photo of beautiful landscapes… well, I am glad he is applying his years of experience to real estate photography. Don’t forget to checkout few virtual tours he created recently (near the bottom of the post).

We are not sure how he does it, his exterior photos capture the deep blue sky with whitest puffy clouds, and his interior shots are able to grabs all the details inside the room AND the sharp image of outside thru glasses, the range and dimension of his photos are amazing!

Photography service is always FREE with any staging with us, and for a limited time only, Victor is offering a $125 virtual tour package for One Two Six Design's clients!

Well, each of these 5 sets of photos are really showing the same stuff: burger, gown, celebrity, dining and family room, respectively; the difference is really how the subject was presented.

If the burger company can spend who-knows-how-many-$$$$ for Paris Hilton to sizzle up their burger, shouldn’t you do something to properly showcase your home? Remember, presentation is everything, you are not only selling a home, but a lifestyle!!

De-cluttering, cleaning, painting, staging and photographing, we are here to help!

Hope we’ll be spared from such mishaps, and hope no home owners will have to go through such nightmare, selling a home is already stressful enough…

2009 has been fast paced, and March has been especially exciting! We worked on brand new construction on a historical lot in Los Altos, new homes in Pacifica with great views of the ocean, fantastic condos in Palo Alto, and huge mansion in the hills of Saratoga… all these and many other memorable projects all throughout the Bay Area!

I spent few hours to pull out and organized some photos for these projects, and used them to updated our main site’s front page, the Before & After section, as well as the Portfolio section of this blog. I just love looking at the before & after photos, the transformation is always amusing to me! I need to put up more of them on our site…

Okay, that’s it for now, just wanted to write a quick update. It is going to be another busy week ahead, we just got the words over the weekend that few more properties (we staged) are sold! Love hearing these great news!!

Happy Monday everyone!

Star Employee Juan (left) Celebrating His 31st Birthday

In his 10 year tenure, Juan has helped staged well over 3000 homes all around the Bay Area; He knows the every short cut and back road from Peninsula to East Bay and can point out homes he help staged at almost every intersection. Juan has an amazing memory and is the master of our warehouse, he knows exactly where to find anything, and can pull out any specific painting from our collection of ~1000 prints stored along the 120′ long wall!

Juan’s experience is a huge help to our business, he remembers which painting looks well with the furniture the designers picked and can literally stage a home all by himself! It is hard to find anyone who works harder than Juan. He is always punctual, always upbeat, and always pays attention to safety and details. Juan and the rest of our team of designers and installers are the soul of our company, they are One Two Six Design, they are the reason why we are still around after 10 years!

Thank you Juan for you hard work and dedications!
