“I had a charming Carmel type cottage listing that was vacant and in need of complete staging. Key Impressions staged the home beautifully, paying attention to even the smallest detail. I enjoyed doing open houses and hearing the “WOWS”. Kim and Adrienne checked on the home often while it was listed to assure that everything was perfect. Most importantly, Kim and Adrienne love what they do and they were a blast to work with”.

“We hired Kim Furman to decorate our office in Carmel. The building was a historic adobe and we wanted the interior to feel more like a home, rather than an office. The building was taken to the bare walls and Kim became involved from the beginning of the project, interfacing with our architect, contractor and painter. Kim’s ability to interpret our needs and desires, with attention to every detail is apparent throughout our office. We would not hesitate to recommend Kim Furman for any project she would undertake”.

Paul and Sandy Hazen

“Their consulting services are invaluable. I would prefer Key Impressions tell my clients what changes are essential to get the most from their investment. That way, my relationship remains intact and their expertise and suggestions are greatly appreciated and tactfully delivered. I’m always impressed with the outcome as is the client”.

WHAT IS HOME STAGING?

Home staging is the art of setting a home to look it's best for sale. It is a proven marketing tool to sell homes faster in a slow market and for more money in a hot market.

Staging is more than furnishing an empty home. It also involves consulting with owners of occupied homes assisting them with preparing their home to sell, de-cluttering, de-personalizing and quite often rearranging the existing furnishings making the home more spacious. This method allows the prospective buyer the ability to visualize himself or herself living in the home.

As the real estate industry stresses, “the first impression is the key factor in selling a home. Typically a potential buyer makes up their mind ten seconds after they step in the front door. They are already forming an opinion as they pull into the driveway. That doesn't leave too much room for fault. To achieve the greatest possible outcome, a home should always be presented at its best the first time around”.
