Great eye for design, style and colors helped get this house under contract in less than two weeks! Highly recommend. **★★★★★ — Maddy Bowles, May 2018** > Karen efficiently reviews a home and gives room by room suggestions for presenting the home in the "value for price paid" mentality. > We followed every suggestion and received an offer the second day on the market and are now in the inspection phase. **★★★★★ — Lynda Brandes, March 2018** > Our house had been on the market for about 3 months and we had quite a few showings but no offers. I contacted Karen about staging the house and it was a great decision. Karen is professional, prompt, and does a fantastic job. Within 10 days after her staging, we had two offers! **★★★★★ — Sharon Wade, July 2017** > Karen did a WONDERFUL job staging our home in Monte Vista! The house is an older historic home with a different layout and I was concerned people wouldn't see the versatility. Karen was able to place her furniture (very updated BTW) perfectly and show off the homes' historic features while making it look large and roomy. I actually got tears in my eyes when I saw what a beautiful job she did! Best money you could spend when getting your house ready to show. And the perfect testament to her talent and skill is the fact that we sold the house in 5 days! She was a dream to work with! You can't go wrong with Karen Simons and Wow Factor Staging:))) **★★★★★ — bethlang212, Dec. 2016** > Karen and team created a clean environment that will hopfully sell my house fast. It looks great!!! She has great vision and was very helpful. **★★★★★ — Mike Lennane, Dec. 2016** > Karen and her team did an excellent job staging our home. We received quotes from several local stagers, and Karen was the only one to visit our home before providing a quote. She even provided free advice on additional things we could do to spruce up the home and make it more attractive on the market. Her pricing was very competitive and she only required a one-month staging commitment (most others require a 3 month minimum, which drives up the price dramatically). The staging was beautifully done and our house was under contract after being on the market for only one week. **★★★★★ — Ariel Brooks-Stevens, Dec. 2016** > Karen and her team did an amazing job for my client. The transformation was remarkable! It's incredible what she can do in just one day. **★★★★★ — Kathleen G., Nov. 2016** > I was contemplating getting rid of most of my furniture and accessories and starting over but, Karen re-designed what I already had and made it wonderful. Simply amazing. WELL DONE! **★★★★★ — C Shanks, Sept. 2016** > I worked with Karen at WOW-Factor Staging to prepare my house before I put it on the market for sale. I followed her guidance in every room and the result was a fresh, uncluttered space that felt roomy and highlighted the best qualities of my house. It was the best version I could have presented of my home, still using much of my own furniture and accessories. She did a fantastic job and I received great feedback on the showing of the house from realtors. Most importantly, the house sold! Thank you, Karen! **★★★★★ — nraguon, Sept. 2016** > The service I received from Karen Simmons was excellent. She was straight to the point about the process and did not waste anytime getting started. She also made things feel rather comfortable during what can feel like a stressful time. **★★★★★ — Lilian Desmond, July 2016** > Karen is amazing!! She's been able to assist in helping our high paced, fast growing business. She is professional, efficient and overall amazing in doing the work she does. We look forward to working with Karen for the next projects both professional and personal. I Highly recommend her. **★★★★★ — Jeff Everett, July 2016** > Since using Wow-Factor my listings have sold faster and at full asking! She has great ideas to make your client home shine!
