Local Real Estate Stager Named Finalist in the Prestigious Home Staging Industry Awards
2024-07-08, Kingston, ON – The Real Estate Staging Association® (RESA®) is thrilled to announce that Susan Poffley, home stager and founder of Design Style Kingston, has been recognized as a Top Ten Finalist in the Rising Star Occupied Staging North America category for the 2024 Home Staging Industry Awards. This accolade highlights the exceptional talent and dedication of Poffley and her contribution to the real estate staging industry.
For the past one and a half years, Susan Poffley has been transforming properties in Kingston and the surrounding area, helping homeowners and real estate agents achieve top dollar for their listings. According to RESA® statistics, professionally staged homes sell 73% faster and for up to 10% more than non-staged homes, underscoring the value of working with an award-winning stager like Poffley.
Working with an award-winning stager not only brings aesthetic appeal but also strategic value. With buyers making decisions within seconds of viewing a property, the expertise of a top-tier stager can be the difference between a quick sale at a premium price and a lingering listing.
“We would like to thank everyone for their participation in the awards process, without the support of our membership we would not be able to recognize so many well deserving people in our industry. All of the finalists in all categories can be seen at www.HomeStagingIndustryAwards.com. All of the winners will be announced at RESACON during the awards premier July 26, 2024.” said, Shell Brodnax, CEO Real Estate Staging Association.
Design Style Kingston is a home staging company that has been serving Kingston, Ontario and the surrounding area since January 2023. Design Style Kingston works with home sellers and real estate agents, “setting the stage for your successful home sale”. As a certified staging expert Poffley makes homes look bigger, brighter, and more inviting for prospective buyers. Services usually start with a home staging consultation, where Poffley tours the property and shares what needs to be moved, removed, and updated (before the home enters the market). Design Style Kingston has a beautiful inventory of furnishings and accessories which is utilized for staging both vacant and occupied homes.
Professional Home Staging is an excellent marketing tool. Home staging showcases the best features of a home using furniture and accessories that appeal to the majority of buyers. Staging reveals an aspirational lifestyle to buyers (so buyers can envision how THEY can live in the home). Importantly, home staging focuses on fostering that desired emotional connection for the buyer, as they walk through the property.
