We flip a lot of houses and this was our first time using First Impression. This house received the most positive comments on the stagging ever. Several people asked to buy the furnishings. **★★★★★ — HU-749581181, Sept. 2019** > We met Alina at an open house she had staged & designed. It was amazing how she made the most of such a small space and how she transformed it into such a bright, beautiful place. What drew us to her is how knowledgeable she is and how she made herself available on short notice. Alina went out of her way to help us find just the right place. She works really hard for her clients and responds very quickly when we had questions/concerns. We were very lucky to have her help & we highly recommended her! **★★★★★ — Richard Barrett, Sept. 2019** > Alina is just like a real life Mary Poppins, "Practically Perfect in Every Way." Her positive, "can-do" good nature and well developed aesthetic taste are not to be overstated. Alina's wonderful ability to truly see and accentuate the positive features of every room was amazing and tasteful. She has an absolutely stunning, creative interior design talent. **★★★★★ — HU-600623515, Aug. 2019** > Alina did such a great job I almost didn’t want to sell it. Her staging helped me get top dollar for my condo. She went above and beyond. I would definitely use her again. **★★★★★ — mimi\_\_, Aug. 2019** > Alina was awesome from start to finish. Her staging was incredible and it definitely was what sold our house at the price we wanted. I can not say enough about her and her company. Highly recommended you will not be disappointed. **★★★★★ — Tracy Hrycuna, March 2019** > Alina was amazing! Her energy and drive was never ending and her staging of our home was so beautiful it almost gave us second thoughts about selling it! She was extremely responsive, respectful and just all around fun to work with! I highly recommend her for any staging or interior design project- she will not disappoint, you will love her designs as she listens to all you say and you will enjoy the process. **★★★★★ — HU-151449933, Dec. 2018** > I could not believe the transformation of my house after First Impression staged it. Alina’s use of color and placement all had such purpose - I’m still speechless now in an attempt to describe the results. Everyone that saw her work was literally in awe....she is AMAZING!! **★★★★★ — HU-968101423, Dec. 2018** > Alina, of First Impression Staging and Design is simply the best! She and her crew went above and beyond. Full of great ideas, the staging was amazing.... wanted to stay and live in my own place longer. You will not be disappointed with First Impression Staging and Design! > > Mike Hickey **★★★★★ — Terri Larnard, Oct. 2017** > Alina is a joy to work with. She is knowledgeable and professional. She really knows her business and we feel like we have made a new friend. **★★★★★ — Cindy Bennett, April 2017** > we were extremely pleased with the thorough job we received from First Impression. We needed some design and updating in our small church building and we received more than we asked for. Careful attention was taken to listen to what we needed as a ministry as well as being careful to making our place welcoming to visitors. The colors chosen and simple design were very well received by everyone who came in our door. We are appreciative, and we would also recommend this company to anyone and from all income levels. Our request was to do work on a Very limited budget, however, it is clear the abilities displayed do not seem budget limited but all in good taste and of highest quality. > Quality. **★★★★★ — mbradaric, March 2017** > First impression stage and design staged my kitchen and I was more than impressed. The owner Alina had a fantastic taste and great eye for details. The difference was stunning! She though about many details that made a difference in the final picture, which I would not have thought about. I love her style and friendliness and really recommend first impression staging and design. **★★★★★ — Chris Glenn, March 2017** > Impressive changes made to average home making it much more appealing to buyers. Provided suggestions on how to improve the home and make more attractive at other stages of selling a home. Friendly, easy to work with, very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend. **Comment from First Impression Staging and Design:** > Christ, it was such a pleasure working with you guys!
