Maryam knows how to give a space something extra that makes a buyer feel great when viewing your home. I got offers the first day it was on the market. Hooman was also a dream to work with he was all over every detail of the project. He fixed and repaired everything that needed to be done to make my property stand out in the market. It's clear to me if I didn't hire this team my house would still be sitting on the market. Calling them was the smartest move I made for selling my home!

Working with Janne Anderson Burgio and her team at The House Whisperers Home Staging + Interiors…read morewas an absolute game-changer for one of my recent luxury listings--a stunning 10,000 square-foot luxury estate in Rancho Pacifica. As a real estate agent specializing in high-end properties in Southern California, I've collaborated with various stagers over the years, but Janne's approach stood out for its seamless blend of creativity, professionalism, and market-savvy strategy. From our initial consultation to the final walkthrough, the entire process was efficient, collaborative, and resulted in a transformation that not only accelerated the sale but also maximized the property's value. It all started with a complimentary quick quote over the phone--Janne herself answered my call within minutes, which immediately set a tone of responsiveness and accessibility. She asked thoughtful questions about the home's architecture (a sleek contemporary design with expansive glass walls and ocean views), the target buyer demographic (affluent families and tech executives), and my listing timeline. Unlike other stagers who might push a one-size-fits-all package, Janne tailored her recommendations to highlight the property's unique features, such as the open-concept living areas and custom pool. The staging execution was flawless. Janne's team--a dedicated group of designers and installers who move like a well-oiled machine--arrived on time with everything needed. They transformed the space in just one day, creating high-impact, on-trend vignettes that felt luxurious yet livable. In the living room, they layered neutral-toned sectionals with textured throws, abstract art, and strategic lighting to draw the eye to the panoramic views. The primary bedroom became a serene retreat with hotel-style bedding, subtle metallic accents, and fresh florals that evoked a spa-like ambiance. Everything was magazine-worthy, de-personalized yet warm, and perfectly aligned with the home's style, location, and price point. Janne personally oversaw the details, making adjustments on the spot and sharing tips from her "Secrets of a Stager" talks, like how to streamline furniture arrangements for better photography flow. Throughout the process, communication was top-notch. Janne's award-winning customer service team handled logistics smoothly, from flexible payment options to quick responses via text or email. There were no surprises--just reliable, high-quality work that elevated my listing and boosted my commission. I've since referred The House Whisperers to colleagues for everything from quick-turn investor flips to celebrity estates. If you're dealing with luxury properties, Janne and her team aren't just stagers; they're strategic partners who turn tired listings into irresistible homes. I can't recommend them highly enough--call them at 858-335-9577 for your next project; you won't regret it.

Charged Nearly $2,000 Over Quote -- Breach of Contract, Legal Action Pending…read more We were quoted $4,459 for our project, which we accepted despite our budget being lower. We even cleared the entire space beforehand to help expedite their process and reduce costs. However, we were shocked to be charged over $6,400--nearly $2,000 more than agreed. We understand it's not always going to 100% reflect the quote, but there was no prior notice or written approval of extra charges. When we questioned the overage, they claimed they gave us "their most generous discount to date," which was misleading and unacceptable. We disputed the charge with American Express, but were told the final bill they gave us after the work counted as "written notice," despite no prior communication about the increase. This is unfair and contradicts their own contract terms. After consulting with an attorney, we were advised the company is in breach of contract. If they do not refund the overage and honor the original quote, we are fully prepared to take legal action. This review is a final effort to resolve the matter before going to court. Future clients, proceed with caution--get everything in writing.

I have hired 1st Stage for multiple properties over the years. In the past, they generally did…read moregreat work and I was impressed with their staging style, professionalism, availability, and pricing. That said, my most recent experience was disappointing. I had them stage a modern townhouse in Costa Mesa near the beach. Unfortunately, the staging style they chose did not match the aesthetic of the property at all. I am not a designer, so I typically trust their vision and let them take the lead. This time, I reached out to their team and simply asked if we could swap out a few items to make the space feel more modern or beachy. I was told I would need to pay a restocking fee. That response was frustrating. I had referred them many jobs and clients in the past, and while the fee itself was not a large amount, it felt unnecessary and left a bad impression. They did eventually waive the fee, which I appreciated, but the situation already felt mishandled. Fast forward a bit. The property did not sell, and I requested that it be de-staged. Their team came out a few days later and removed the furniture. A few months after that, they emailed both me and my client, who was the actual party to the staging contract, claiming there was a prorated balance due for a few extra days the furniture remained in the home. The amount was under $400. The contract was between my client and 1st Stage, not me, so I was confused as to why I was included. Shortly after, Mark Sutton emailed me directly asking if I could take care of the payment by the next day. I found that extremely unprofessional. Agents are the ones who bring them business, and asking me to personally pay an invoice that had nothing to do with me showed a real lack of business judgment. I expressed my disappointment with their customer service, and the only response I received was a payment link. If you are looking for a stager who truly feels like a partner and values long-term relationships, I would think twice before using this company. In my experience, once an issue arises, you are treated like just another number, and preserving relationships does not seem to be a priority.

I got the opportunity to work with Kate Griffin on an organization job that I needed for my home. I…read morecontacted her one week & she scheduled our appt. for early the following week. Which was such a breath of fresh air in this very active real estate market. Being a Realtor. I know all companies that are associated with real estate are experiencing lots of volume so that was very quick considering the market. To be honest I was in such need of moving this project forward. What a wonderful blessing we got started right away! I had moved into a new home and with the exception of a desk/chair and a bed. I only brought items that fit in a box. Or went in the closet. I initially contacted Blythe so I can get a design to get some furniture etc. but I had boxes all around the parameter of my home and couldn't get to the design until we went through all the boxes and had everything organized and put away. Over the years we can accumulate so many items that are so precious. IE: just to name one category. I had been saving a variety of keep sake items from over the years that were also in cardboard boxes and felt stuck not knowing what to do with them. I didn't know where to start. When Kate arrived she rolled up her sleeves and got to work. We opened every box and went through absolutely everything. She made what looked so overwhelming a breeze. She was able to help me discern what to keep and what to purge. I had a hard time parting ways with items I hadn't used in I can't even remember the last time I had used them. I even had kept boxes from vacuums and other appliances that she kindly pointed out were taking up space that we could use to organize other items in. Apparently, I needed the permission to get rid of it. Which when I did get rid of them. It felt freeing! We sorted through all sorts of items. Anywhere, from a variety of keep sakes (my daughter trophy's, various photos, bday and holiday cards I had collected over the years), office supplies, to electronics (she helped me discern what to keep - and what to recycle - phew - so nice to know you can recycle electronics), kitchen cabinets, cleaning supplies, cleaning appliances in a closet, to paperwork that needed to be shredded and had piled up over time (which I got done), misc. bathroom items, linen closet to labeling. By the time we were done it was after 6pm and we had lot of empty cardboard boxes to recycle. Even though she had been here for 4 hours on a intense and detailed job.... with a mask on... On a hot day. She wanted to ensure she didn't leave any task for that day not completed. She offered to help me break down and take out every last box (I live on the 3rd floor) which we did. Then we scheduled an appt. for the next day so we could get some containers etc. to efficiently organize the items. Bye bye cardboard boxes. What started off as a 3 hour process. Ended up being a 9 hour job over a span of 3 days. I'm so grateful Kate was available 3 days in a row to keep the flow of the process going. I can go on and on. When you don't know where to start it's sure great to have someone who is a professional organizer help you. Kate is experienced, professional, amazing, friendly, funny, jovial and someone you will feel comfortable having in your home.
