Born and raised in San Jose, CA, I remember at a young age always re-organizing my bedroom furniture, switching out pictures season to season, re-organizing my clothes. Being young and not really thinking I could make a career out of this, I instead got my degree in Hospitality Management and spent many years coordinating events at hotels, country clubs, tech companies and in the public sector. While I enjoyed the many places I worked and the events I was involved in, I never had that fulfilling feeling inside.
During Covid, I unfortunately lost my job due to budget cuts. In the biggest leap of faith of mine and my husbands life, we decided this was our time to leave the Bay Area and move to a smaller town with a slower paced life and that was more family/community oriented. In the two years we’ve been here, we’ve found an amazing community, friends, and our own little piece of paradise in Rescue. This was one of the best moves we could have made for our family.
At Illuminate Home Staging and Design, we believe that every home has the potential to be beautiful and inviting. We strive to set the standard for excellence and innovation in every project we undertake, and we are committed to delivering exceptional results for our clients.
We take a collaborative approach to every project, working closely with our clients to understand their goals and preferences. We combine our expertise with their vision to create a space that is both beautiful and functional, and we always strive to exceed their expectations. We believe that home staging should be accessible to everyone, regardless of budget or style.
We are a small, family operated business and are passionate about creating stunning spaces. We are committed to ongoing education and training to stay at the forefront of our industry and bring the latest trends and techniques to every project.
We will walk through your home room by room, taking note of our first impressions, what grabs us, what glares at us, and what gives us a feeling of home.
The packing starts now; as we pack away a good percentage of everything in the room in order to create a more clean, open and spacious feel.
Finding your beautiful focal points, we will emphasize what we love about the room and hide or distract the negative aspects of the rooms.
Focusing on lighting and color, we will make each room into a bright, warm and inviting space buyers can respond to. Paint and light fixtures are key elements to buyers.
In order for a buyer to "feel home", they need to not be reminded of this being your home. We'll depersonalize the space while retaining the warmth and fun of photos.
The dirty work speaks for itself but is often overlooked because you've lived here for so long. Let's get rid of any potential inspection issues and the buyer's mental repair list by doing it ourselves.
This involves updating your style and building simple accessories out of what you already have to create clean lines and form. We will recommend critical purchases not only as valuable investments in the staging process but to modernize and refresh your current items.
This is the fun part and is a huge focus of our positioning strategy. We'll show you how to build in these subtleties in order to make the buyers subconsciously desire to live here and "feel home". The "emotional connection points" are where marketing strategy really comes in to play.
