FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Home staging is the process of preparing a home for sale by highlighting its best features, maximizing its space, and creating an inviting environment that speaks to potential buyers. The goal of home staging is to sell the property quickly and for the highest possible price.

  • According to the Real Estate Staging Association, homes that are staged before going on the market sell 76% faster on average compared to non-staged homes.

    In a 2018 HSR (Home Staging Resource) study of over 4,200 homes, 68% of the staged homes sold for at least 9% more than their “un-staged neighbor’s” home.

    Home staging offers a relatively cheap way to gain an edge in a competitive selling market. The investment to stage your home is a fraction of the cost compared to a price reduction on sales price.

  • Our staging fee is based on a number of factors including (but not limited to) square footage, number of bed/bath, access type, and location of the property.

    Our pricing includes our staging/removal/labor/trucking fees, and rental of furniture and accessories for a 2-month contract term. You may contract for a longer period of time at a set monthly rate. Since each home is unique, we like to personally see each property before providing a formal quote. Our rates are highly competitive within industry standards. Staging packages start as low as $2,000.

  • Yes, we require a minimum of a 2-month contract for our staging services. From our experience, even with an all-cash offer, clients often prefer to keep the furniture until the escrow process is further along, which typically necessitates the second month. This policy ensures that your property remains beautifully staged during critical stages of the sale process.

  • Yes, our company is licensed through the State of Hawaii DCCA and insured through VillaNova Insurance Partners. COI can be provided if requested.

  • Staging your home with OASIS STAGING + DESIGN is simple. On our website, click the ‘GET QUOTE’ button and fill in the form with all required information and any other information you would like to include.

    Upon review, we will send you a ballpark estimate. In the case we are unable to come up with an estimate, we will schedule to preview and assess the property in-person. Once the pricing has been finalized, we will send an invoice for 50% of the project total and contract to complete in order to secure an installation date. Remaining balance will be due 2 days prior to scheduled staging date. On staging day, just sit back, relax, and let us do our magic!

  • At OASIS STAGING + DESIGN Hawaii, we are proud to offer our expert home staging services throughout the entire island of Oahu.

  • The best time to stage is prior to listing the property on market. You only get one chance at a first impression! When your home is listed, you want to be sure that it is ready to show at its best, both in MLS pictures and for in-person showings.

    Staging takes place right before the photography. All renovation, cleaning, and moving needs to be done prior to us coming in to stage the property.

  • Our team works fast and efficiently, we can usually get most homes finished within one day. Typically, we start in the morning and finish in the afternoon.

  • The more time we have in advance is always the best, but we try our best to accommodate our client’s needs even with a tight timeline. Typically, if you can give us at least 1-2 week’s notice, we should be able to fit you into our schedule.

    We do not secure installation days or plan until a 50% deposit and completed contract are received.
