Compliments
"Elizabeth is an absolute godsend. She guided me through the intricacies of a major bathroom renovation, with amazing results. When necessity required we sell our home, she then assisted with a practical update to the kitchen and staging of the home for sale. Elizabeth amazed me with her ability to remake my cluttered home into a beautiful space. Very much looking forward to our next chance to work together to make our forever home a beautiful reality." Anne Stephens, Dartmouth, NS "I can't tell you how many people commented on the staging! Everyone loved it. The house sold because of the staging, without a doubt!" Vanessa Roman, Realtor, Dartmouth, NS From a staging client who may not sell after having their home staged "...everyone who visits wants to use our decorator for their next project". Sandra J., Tantallon, NS From a staging client whose home sold in the first month of listing after previously being on the market for over 6 months "...WOW, thank you, thank you - it looks awesome". Jason B., Halifax, NS From a decorating client "...thank you, I would like to tap into your experience again for more talented creative ideas". Raylene O., Sackville, NS From a Realtor whose clients' property sold in the first week of listing "...without home staging we may not have received 4 offers and got more than list price - thank you for your good work". Sylvia Large, Realtor, Dartmouth, NS From a decorating client on a bedroom transformation "...it looks wonderful. Thank you again for your guidance". Patricia B., Dartmouth, NS |
