What to Look for in a Property Styling Company

When you’re selling your house, there is an incredible number of tasks and details to manage. From arranging inspections to packing to organising cleaning, it can quickly get overwhelming.

Luckily, you can take some of the pressure off by working with experienced professionals to get your home sales-ready. In particular, hiring a property styling company can ensure that your house looks as appealing as possible when potential buyers view it.

However, property styling is much more than just interior decoration. It requires a range of skills and talents, which is why it’s essential to thoroughly vet a styling company before working together. Below, find our top tips on what to look for when partnering with a professional property stylist.

Design skills combined with market expertise

It goes without saying that your property stylist should have an extensive background in interior design and home staging. But at the same time, it’s just as important that they’re familiar with the current market trends and what’s popular in your area.

Today’s top property stylists evaluate several factors when preparing your home for sale. Not only do they take into account the look and feel of your house, but they also consider what’s current in your particular suburb and what buyers are looking for in the area.

Excellent customer reviews and examples of past work

Similarly, reputable property stylists should have plenty of satisfied customers and examples of their work. It’s easy for someone to talk up their design skills, but as a client, you should request customer references or photos of past projects they’ve worked on.

Specifically, be sure to ask for examples of homes they’ve staged that are similar to yours — whether in size, style, or neighbourhood. Check out the Pabs portfolio of work if you’re interested in seeing property styling case studies.

Personal, hands-on approach

Your home is a special place that’s close to your heart, so you want to ensure that your property stylist takes a caring approach when staging it. As you conduct your research, ask your prospective stylist about their styling process. It shouldn’t be generic or formulaic; rather, it should be customised to bring out the unique features of your home.
