Great looking spaces, inside and out.

Let's talk

Michelle Maurice is a Certified Staging Professional with over 25 years of experience owning and running a successful business.
Combining her business expertise and her passion for design, she will work with you to understand your needs, budget and timetable.

Why Choose Us?

Every staging professional has the same goals - create spaces that highlight the special details of a home, downplay perceived negatives and get the home sold quickly and for the best price.

I, of course, do this as well, but I feel that my approach to the staging process is what sets me apart. Nothing is more important to me than my relationship with my clients. I approach each job with compassion, practicality and humor.

One of my clients said “You’re like Dr. Phil with good taste!” Selling a house is very stressful. Every suggestion I make is geared towards the demographic of the potential buyer but also the realities of budget, timing, and actuality. I do not believe in over staging or forcing a certain look. I want your home to look warm and inviting. No detail is too small from what actually goes in to your house, to how we behave in your house. Above all else, I believe in fostering a respectful and mutually beneficial relationship.

I had never sold a property before and had no idea how to stage my house for resale. Michelle arrived promptly on time, surveyed the space and quickly offered suggestions to make my residence marketable. She is easy to work with, enjoys a good laugh and made me want to incorporate the changes she recommended. Her creative eye and flair for putting pieces together proved successful in this challenging real estate environment. My house sold in 5 days! I would highly recommend Michelle for selling a house or decorating a home. Thanks Michelle and I look forward to working with you again!

Thank you so much! Without your advice, the house wouldn't have showed the way it did or received an offer above asking price. It was a pleasure working with you. I can’t recommend your services enough!

Carlisle Homeowner

We loved working with Michelle and would highly recommend her. Staging our house had the highest ROI compared to the many other updates we did in preparation for selling. Michelle was really great to work worth, and helped us strategize on the most "bang for our buck" while staying within our budget. This was one of the easiest and best parts of the home-selling process and so thankful we chose Michelle to help guide us and position us in the best way possible.

Michelle Maurice is a true professional. She is always timely, extremely personable and professional. Her work speaks for itself and because of her guidance and staging ability, she has helped us sell our client’s homes in a shorter period of time. We have had rave reviews from our clients on not only her staging, but also on her staging consultations and how involved she is. They have all appreciated her taking as much time as needed to successfully walk them through either the staging process or simply to provide a consultation on decluttering, shifting furniture or recommendations (paint colors, removing items, changing shower curtains, etc) to be able to show a home in it’s best light. We would highly recommend Inside Out Staging and Design and the services they provide, as they will get the job done with a quick turnaround time and it will be tastefully done. We can’t thank Michelle enough for always being flexible with her schedule and being willing to work hard to hit our quick and sometimes challenging deadlines in this fast pace Real Estate world!

For over 10 years Michelle has been my favorite statger. As a listing broker, I would not list a home without her staging expertise. In every case, Michelle's, exquisite attention to detail, charming personality and roll her sleeves up attitude has yielded my sellers more money in a shorter period of time. Michelle is not only well-loved by myself and my real estate team, but my sellers also adore her and often say they have never liked their home more than after she adds her magic touches. She works well with all sellers, the neat, the needy, the messy and even the non-believers. She is tactful and current on the look that today's buyers seek. Michelle is simply the best, the one factor in any transaction that never fails is Michelle from Inside-Outside staging. She is simply the best!!

Michelle was essential to preparing our home for the market. She has a masterful eye for interior layout and design combined with expert planning, prioritization and resourcefulness. The result is a project realistic in time and budget. Not only is she fantastic to work with, but through her efforts we added considerable market value to our home.

Bedford Homeowner

Michelle was great! I was faced with a relocation and wanted to put my home on the market quickly. Michelle came in and made specific suggestions for how my house would show better. She worked tirelessly with me and then on her own to be sure the house was ready in my (very aggressive) timeframe. I highly recommend her!

THANK YOU" The house looks great, all of your ideas were fantastic and most importantly you motivated my husband! The last home you staged for us (which, if you remember, sold for FULL PRICE, in one week) it was like pulling teeth to get him to do things, but because YOU said it, he listened! He's out buying a rug, picture and plant, as we speak! We already had a great home but you made it better and we appreciate that!

Michelle was out of this world fantastic!!! Michelle showed a genuine concern for my best interest in selling my home quickly with minimal expenses. Michelle has a keen eye for taking a room from blah to WOW with a few quick and uncomplicated changes. My house sold in less than 24 hours of being listed on the MLS with 9 qualified overbid offers! You have to see her magic to believe it! Simply incredible!!! I wouldn't attempt to sell another piece of property without her expertise and I am looking forward to using Michelle when I purchase my next home for her design services.

Michelle‘s eye for design and the products she supplies not only beautifies a property it also helps to increase the end value of that property. Many of my clients have asked for Michelle’s contact information so they could request her help with decorating their new homes.

Frequently asked Questions

Does Staging work?

Yes! The average increase in selling price for a staged home vs. an unstaged home is 6.9%. Staged homes also sell 2-3x faster than an unstaged home. It is common knowledge that the longer a house stays on the market, the further the price drops. Couple this with the holding costs of your mortgage and it is a sound investment in both time and money.

What is curb appeal and why is it so important?

Curb appeal is what your house looks like from the outside. More than 76% of buyers do a drive by, either virtually or in person. As they say, you only get one chance to make a first impression and this is it! A potential buyer will drive right by a house that is unattractive from the road. Your house could be picture perfect inside but you will never get that opportunity. The front of your house, and even more specifically the front door area, is extremely important to the overall impression of your house. We will look at EVERY aspect of your house both inside and out.

Why would I put money into a house that I want to sell?

Consider this. 80% of potential buyers cannot see beyond someone else’s clutter and style choices. Distracted buyers don’t see the home, but the stuff. Buyers want to move into a house that is low maintenance and hassle free. Any perceived "work" will turn them away.

But I really like my house and the way it looks. Why should I change it?

Potential buyers make a decision on whether they like your house or not within the first 15 seconds (see curb appeal)! They spend the remainder of their tour convincing themselves, either positively or negatively, about that decision. Although you may really love French Country, your potential buyer might be Minimalist Modern. Your house needs to be gender neutral and "model house" ready so that ANY buyer, regardless of their taste, can imagine themselves in the space and how "their" stuff will fit.

Is it a lot of work?

Think of it this way, you will eventually need to pack your belongings anyway. This is the perfect opportunity to donate, throw away or pack anything non-essential. It will help you in the long run and your home will appear larger and clutter free to potential buyers.
