Absolutely! While professional organizing is at the heart of what we do, we also offer home staging, move concierge services, and space strategy consultations. Whether you’re preparing to sell, settle into a new home, renovating, or simply looking for expert guidance before making changes, we’re here to help you make confident decisions and create a home that work for you.

We are open to working with our clients, depending on their working style. We often work side by side with clients, so there’s a transference of skills, and we give occasional homework to help you reach organizing goals. Other clients prefer us to do the work from start to finish, and the client has little to no input on the project. We also offer DIY services for clients who need a little direction or are budget-conscious.

Yes! As a Home Staging Expert® as well as a Professional Organizer, our approach is to efficiently makeover your space, remove clutter, and stage to appeal to a broad range of buyers. We keep your budget in check and focus changes on strategic areas for a return on investment. A typical price reduction occurs after a home is listed for a month, which can be a reduction of thousands of dollars. The homes we stage typically receive an offer within days of being listed — saving you time and money!

Professional home staging is an effective and proven marketing technique for preparing a home for sale by combining current design trends, buyer psychology, and visually presenting the property to sell a lifestyle. It maximizes the home’s features, potentially removes any negatives or distractions, and improves flow and value. Professional home stagers know how to optimally and affordably create a market-ready property that stands out in online photos and creates an emotional connection for buyers.

Organization is a continuous process. Partnering with a Professional Organizer helps you return to an organized state and learn skills and techniques. Our process helps you have greater success and is easier and faster than you think. The time it takes to complete your organization project depends on many factors, such as the project's scope, the amount of clutter, decision-making, commitment to the project, and having the right materials and supplies. We work at your pace and recommend a minimum of weekly sessions to move your project forward. Our projects are typically whole homes that take 20-45 hours and smaller projects in a day or two. After that, there are maintenance strategies and ongoing maintenance support so that you can stay organized; this comes as welcome news to our clients who have battled clutter and disorganization for years.

Our minimum session is 2 hours. We can help with one organizing task, one room, or a whole house. We always begin with an In-Home Assessment to determine the scope of your project. Then, you’ll receive an estimate to complete it, no matter how small. Many times, the In-Home Assessment is just the motivation to get you started! We’ve also worked with clients through 20-40 hours worth of files, keepsakes, and photos.
