Amanda and her team were fabulous. Not being sure we would use a stager we are so glad we did! Amanda new exactly what would make our home shine. She was able to mix our furniture with hers and than decorated perfectly. We sold our home 3 days after placing it on the market. I really feel that Amanda was huge reason for the success of the sale.

Amanda is wonderful to work with every time! I use her to stage my listings before the photoshoots and putting it on the market. She is timely with her communication and meets my deadlines which are crucial in my line of work. All the homes she's staged for me have been exquisite and the attention to detail is impeccable. I highly recommend her and her company!

My condo was in escrow 9 days after it’s on the market. All thanks for Amanda!! She made my home look like a million bucks.
Amanda was referred by my realtor. During our initially meeting/property walk-through, Amanda was very personable and listened to my vision for the staging. My goal is to sell the property quickly during the slow season (November). I communicated that with Amanda, and she was onboard and shared how she was able to achieve the same result with her other listings.
Overwhelming comments from the visitors talked about how good my place looked. Amanda’s staging not only elevate the look and feel of my home, and also help me sell my property at the top dollar I asked for!

Amanda did a fine job staging our home for sale. She was responsive, flexible and worked hard to come up with creative solutions that fit within the budget. We had a good end result and accepted a full price offer quickly. I'd gladly hire Hom Staging & Design again.

I have worked with Amanda as a professional realtor when she staged clients homes. I have also had the opportunity to work with her when she assisted me in staging my own home before I put in on the market. Each and every time the experiences have been outstanding and the results exceptional. Amanda has an incredible eye for the appropriate use of color and texture to enhance the features of any property, regardless of size or location. She has a wonderful personality and her fees are very much in line. . In every case my clients have been very satisfied ( as was I personally) and the properties have sold quickly at record prices. I therefore very strongly recommend you consider using Amanda for any and all of your staging need!

As always it was pleasure working with you. Thank you.

We originally hired Amanda to help with outside staging of our home, That soon moved to a complete staging of the inside - which resulted in the rapid sale of our home! Amanda has a great "eye" for what works in the home, is up to date on the current trends in what home buyers are looking for their next home. Lastly, she is easy to work with - she tries to accommodate schedules, she listens, suggest and explains her suggestions.

We had our home for sale in San Clemente for about a year and 4 months. While we had many offers, most of them were unacceptable because they were on the low side. In January we signed with Ryan Schramm of Creatus who convinced us to "stage" our home and he highly recommended Amanda at Hom Staging & Design whom he had successfully used on several other home sales. I was reluctant to because of the cost and thought "how could this make such a difference"?. We decided to move forward. Amanda and her crew arrived with a myriad of ideas. We compromised on some, but followed her directions. She and her very professional staff, including the movers, made this much simpler than I thought. Our home was successfully sold within a couple of weeks of showing for more than the asking price which covered the expense of staging. I know that Hom Stafing & Design were responsible for the positive response. They say "the proof is in the pudding", and the cost of staging proved not to be a cost, but an investment. I would not hesitate to recommend her.

I cannot say enough good things about Amanda and Hom Staging & Design. Her extensive experience, attention to detail, reliability and eye for what works made our home selling experience a win win..
I really believe we sold our home for more because we chose Hom Staging and Design.
We received countless compliments from shoppers at our open houses and the subsequent buyers absolutely loved the look and feel of our home.
Amanda really went the extra mile for us with color and material selections during our remodel and well as recommending a great contractor.
We would recommend Hom Staging & Design to anyone looking to maximize the sale of their home.
Thanks Amanda and we look forward to working with you again soon!

Hom Staging & Design was awesome. It really did make a difference in how our home showed for the sale. Our house sold the first week on the market. Amanda has a great eye for design and I will use her again in the future. Actually thinking of having her help decorate our new home when we get it. Thanks Amanda!

Amanda is the consummate professional and such a dream to work with. As in all things real estate, the staging of my listings usually needs to be fulfilled yesterday and Amanda is always there for the job. Her calm and cheery nature make things so much more enjoyable and here design esthetic is spot on and very on trend. Amanda and her team are definitely my "go-to" when it comes to staging my listings!

Hom Staging and Design staged a vacant listing of mine in Coto De Caza. The furniture and interior accents were consistent with those that any homeowner would have purchased for a home in this price range (between $1M and $1.5M).
I had certain time restrictions, and Amanda and her team did a great job of not only meeting the time requirements, but going above and beyond to insure that they "under-promised and over-delivered".
The majority of agents and brokers that showed the property all had extremely positive comments regarding the staging, most being amazed that the property was even staged, as the furniture and accents all blended so well with the home.

We used Hom Staging to sell our south county OC home and it sold in 2 days!! Amanda will come to your home and make suggestions on paint colors, furniture placement, color palettes, etc. We repainted the children's rooms, dining room & family room to appeal to a wider buyer audience based on her advice. We moved out heavy furniture to make room for updated, tasteful staged furniture. She even staged our backyard! In fact, the new homeowners purchased quite a bit of staged furniture also. Amanda is professional, experienced and her rates are very reasonable for the results you want. We will use her again in the future!

Hom Staging & Design crew finished the job on time, did a great job, and were very willing to come back and add several items home-sellers requested after completing the job (towels which had mysteriously disappeared). Were also timely and professional about removing staging items after home had sold. Would recommend and will use again.

Over the years I have worked with a variety of different vendors. It is always a pleasure to find someone who is not only talented with their trade but a pleasure to work with. When it comes to staging a home there are so many details to consider, manage and execute and I couldn't be happier with her performance and service from start to finish.

Home Staging and Design provided professional, timely service to my clients on the staging of their home. Amanda's advice was exactly what was needed. The home shows like a model and receives many complements. She was able to work with the homeowners personal items and add furnishings where needed. This was all done within the owner's budget. We are all very pleased.

Amanda and her team delivered a professional and well-presented real estate staging, straight out of a magazine. She is a talented designer that works with realtors and FSBO's alike! Do not list without first calling her. I was very pleased with the outcome of her work, as were many showing appointments. We got multiple offers within three days! Additionally, HOM staging stands out from its competitors because they do not just repurpose existing decor and furniture, but they also supply decor, art work, plants, and even furniture when I requested it - even patio furniture! I am very happy with their work; I'm planning on calling her again after the move. Best money we ever spent.

We used Amanda Rugg with Hom Staging & Design to stage a few areas in our home prior to putting it up for sale. Amanda was extremely flexible meeting our timeframe. She came with a plethora of ideas -- repurposing our accessories and furniture in our "hot spots" as well as adding her own items to the mix. She has a keen eye for creating an environment that will allow prospective buyers connect with the home, and envision themselves there! AND! To top it off, she is just a doll! Warm, engaging and fun. Highly recommended!

We hired Amanda to stage our home and she did a fantastic job. While most homes that were listed in our neighborhood remained stagnant, our home sold within 1 week! Her pricing was very reasonable and her service was outstanding. I would highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking to stage their home.

Amanda Rugg did a fantastic job "staging" our home and it looks amazing! Our decision to stage our empty home has definitely created more interest and has brought in more "potential buyers" to see the property in person. Many buyers also rely on first impressions, based on pictures they may view online or on flyers, and will make a decision on whether or not they want to take the time to tour a home by how great it looks. I strongly believe that our home will sell in a shorter period of time with staging than without.
Our home is approximately 3400 sq. ft. We had 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, kitchen, dining room, living room, extended family room and our backyard space all staged. We would highly recommend Amanda as she was professional, timely and very easy to work with!
