Darlene and Jason are a creative powerhouse. They don’t just stage, they create. Your home will show a cohesive theme throughout, a subtle appeal that most buyers don’t recognize but will ‘feel’ good when they walk through. And of course, it will be stunning and beautiful. I have used two stagers previously and Simplicity by far exceeded my expectation. No comparison. Have them do your home, you will be thrilled with the results!

I hired Simplicity Design Services (Darlene and Jason) to stage my house and I couldn't be happier. I am not their typical client and they knew I had a tight ROI so they really tailored their advice and estimate around my needs. They really provided me with a package that was the best bang for the buck and ROI. I really felt that they listened to me and delivered an amazing service for my unique needs.
Everything that they recommended that I do (minor stuff) painting a few rooms, to grout, to general cleanup was spot on. The staging and furniture choices were perfect and they were a lot of fun to work with. The furniture company they used were extremely professional and everything was in great condition.
So all of the above is great but how do I know hiring them really helped me. Well here is where I know that choosing them paid off BIG TIME. The day before listing Jason asked me what I was going to list for. I told him and he said I think you should add another 10k. I was reluctant because I knew the market, my realtors are the best in the area and told me I was at the upper end of the search range and I wanted to price it to sell. I took his advice and my house sold in 8 days, with 1 full list offer and another for 10k over list. No open houses, only 8 days being on the market so not a lot of disruption for my family AND because of their advice and guidance I recouped the money I paid them + more. Reason 2 that I know I made the right choice. A house on my street, same model, year built, superior house because of new kitchen, 1 extra bedroom and superior location was on the market for 60k more. That house was not staged. They took 90+ days to sell and sold for the exact same price as mine, even though it was a superior house and should have commanded AT LEAST 40-50k more.
Thank you Darlene and Jason, I'll be referring a lot of friends and family your way!

These two are not only a pleasure to work with as people, but their styling work is fresh, chic, clean, and very Zen. Not only are they extremely creative in their approach but they go above and beyond as they also build custom pieces where they see fit. On one shoot, they had designed and hand built a beautiful headboard. I was thoroughly impressed by their innovation and dedication to the job. Their work is truly beautiful.

Darlene and Jason did a spectacular job staging our new house. Their labor of love augmented the elegance of the house. Their creativity and attentiveness to detail highlighted the spaciousness and uniqueness of the design, while maintaining our budget. Interacting with them was a pleasure, they were easy to communicate with, and receptive to our suggestions and needs. We would strongly recommend Darlene and Jason to anyone thinking about staging their home.

Darlene and Jason are the absolute best! Their approach to staging services is unlike any other. They are up on all the latest trends and have background knowledge in real estate so they know how to attract buyers. Simplicity simply delivers results. I don't think twice about having them consult on every listing and I encourage my colleagues to do the same.

Darlene & Jason did an amazing job staging a property for our clients. They transformed the property. They were very easy to work with and provided valuable insight into the decision making. They were available to explain their reasons for proposing certain ideas. The end result of their work has been greatly increased traffic to the property.

Darlene and Jason are very insightful, clear and gentle with their ideas. More importantly, they are RIGHT! And they use resources effectively and frugally. With great patience and attention to detail, they staged my house in preparation for sale. They know how to open up a home, make it inviting and give it purpose. They turned an awkward extra bedroom into an exercise room. They uncluttered book shelves and turned them into gorgeous displays that were subtly done so as to enhance and not weigh down the space. They detailed items on desks to make the office come alive. Prospective buyers frequently commented that it felt like such a welcoming home.
Additionally working with Darlene and Jason is actually stress reducing and that's what I certainly needed! I highly recommend Simplicity Design.

Without a doubt, we would not have been able to sell our home without Simplicity Design Services fantastic work. When they were through, we were wondering why the heck we were selling the house to begin with! It looked that great. In fact, our buyer wanted to buy some of the pieces. They were technically brilliant, always delivering as promised, and professionally in every way. Look no further!

As a busy real estate agent covering Somerset, Hunterdon and Morris Counties I have used Simplicity with great success over the years, as have many other agents in our 5 office company. Darlene and Jason are great at keeping me in the loop with progress reports. They have been instrumental in many sales both in the luxury market and the non-luxury market. My seller's love them.

I have referred Simplicity Design Services for home staging within the last six months. They have a keen sense of style and what is required to stage a home for maximum return on investment. I recommend them highly.
