2. Thanks Renae!

   We had so many positive comments about how well our house showed. Your ideas for staging our home were wonderful! They made our house look the very best and we are sure they contributed to our successful sale!

   Also, thank you for the use of the sofa cover. Not until we took it off, did we realize how much a difference it made! You have a very special gift.

   Thanks so much & best wishes.

3. Renae, 

   I just wanted to let you know that the home on 59^th St is Sale Pending! After being on the market for 3 months with another Realtor and almost 60 days listed with me they decided to give staging the home a try. The best decision the seller made (other than hiring me) was having you come in and “Set a Scene” as your company name suggests. Within a week they had two interested parties and received a full price cash offer. You made it easy and had practical suggestions allowing the seller to take it from there. I truly feel that you not only helped make the sale happen but the sellers received a fair price for their home. In the current recovering real estate market, a seller needs an advantage over the competition and I feel “Set a Scene” is the answer.

   Thank You so much!

4. Renae looks at your home with a loving, objective eye. She listens to your needs. She tells you what you need to hear. If you are willing to put in the time and do the work she suggests, you will LOVE the outcome. The results are outstanding! Our home sold to the very first buyer!

5. During the few years of working with you on listings, I must tell you the importance of your staging is paramount in today’s environment. It is one of the 3 major elements for success, equal to the others of marketing and pricing.

   I believe it’s not a question of if you should stage (I know it’s imperative), but a question of to what degree one needs to stage. I appreciate our working relationship as you fully understand my thought process and agree with my approach. You may already know, but our percentage of listings sold versus taken is 50% greater than the overall Multiple Listing Service average.

    

   Thank you, and keep up the good work.

   I just wanted to send you a letter of thanks for staging my house while it was for sale. With all my furniture moved out, the rooms were just too bare to impress the buyers.

    Along with the other pieces of furniture you brought over, your cardboard furniture was just great. Setup was fast and no one could tell that the cardboard pieces were not real furniture. What a great idea!

   I would highly recommend Set A Scene Home Staging and Interior Design to anyone getting ready to sell their home. Your prices were very reasonable and you were very accommodating and fun to work with.

   We do want to thank you for so tastefully staging our home.  You definitely have an eye for giving a home the right look and feel. Thank you for adding your own pictures and plants to make it complete. Your positive, sweet personality was an added bonus. It paid off, because it sold in two weeks!   Best wishes!

   Renae did a fabulous job staging our home prior to us selling it.  She went through every room to ensure it appeared welcoming and large.  We believe that our home sold for a better price and time period because it was professionally staged by Renae.  We would highly recommend her to our friends and family.

   Facing a challenging seller’s market and a tight time frame, we looked to our realtor for guidance on how to strategically prepare our home for immediate sale.  From a presentation standpoint, our realtor referred us to Renae Kranz, who then nicely guided us through the staging process of our home.
   
   We are convinced that satisfactorily selling our house in 4 days had everything to do with presenting our house to potential buyers through this staged approach!  Therefore, we recommend without hesitation the utilization of Renae’s talents and services when selling your home.
