Testimonials

From the first meeting to the last, she was professional, helpful, and always did more than expected. I would give her name to all who want great service and a high degree of professionalism.

-Marsha Locicero, Intero Real Estate, Los Gatos

My sellers were dubious about the value of staging. Now they are believers. They were impressed by the appearance of their vacant house after it was staged and they were delighted that it sold quickly for more than expected.

-John Juarez, Realtor

If you want to get a great price and a quick sale, you must arrange for Alice to stage your house. You can’t go wrong. Great people. Great service. I don’t know how the service could be improved. It was excellent.

-Linda Nagy, Seller, Newark, CA

Alice is a great designer. She is proactive, full of high energy, listens, acts, delivers, has pride in their workmanship, has awesome taste and above all, she goes the extra mile. Thank you!

-Maha Najjar, Coldwell Banker, Fremont, CA

The house was gorgeous. Your patient yet firm hand dealing with the seller was great.

-Chuck McCay, Realtor, Campbell, CA

We contracted with Alice to completely renovate our home. Alice made all the decisions and managed the entire project and we were very pleased with the results.

-Jan Craig, Seller, Fremont, CA

My seller and I were completely amazed at the difference that Alice and her team made. Her team went above and beyond average staging which included a comprehensive list of services from performing various repairs, cleaning jobs, and various upgrades. The results speak for themselves. We received over 30 offers and all of them were significantly over list price.

Hi Alice! I just want to say how much I enjoy your blog! My name is Chris Coleman and I am the community manager for Signature Furniture Rental in San Diego. I came across your blog when I was doing some research on home staging. Yours definitely holds more water then most of the others that I’ve seen. The caliber of information that you are providing is exactly the sort of thing that people need to hear in times like these. I especially liked the post about the “3 simple must do home improvement projects in order to sell your home”. This kind of advice is guaranteed to help anyone trying to sell their home that has struggled in the past. In my eyes, its very important to pass on such knowledge because it’s not readily available.

Thank you for making my job easier! With your expertise, skills and knowledge in preparing the property for marketing, my job is made a lot easier and the property more saleable! You’re worth every penny of the investment!

-Faye Carlson, Coldwell Banker, Fremont

Thank you so much for having ‘Staged’ Glenn’s home! Everyone who has seen it has had nothing but wonderful things to say about it ~ especially my husband who is not a man of many words. He said it looked great. Job well done!

- Dania Alvarez-Morroni, Harbor Bay Realty, Alameda

Thank you very much! After looking at the place, I feel like moving back in instead of selling the condo.

-Steven Yamashiro, Seller, Newark via Honolulu, Hawaii

Excellent service, design and complete on time. After staging, my listing sold for $105,000 over asking price in 5 days. I highly recommend others to utlilize Design Partners’ staging services in preparing their homes for sale to gain top dollar!

- Johnson Soong, Realtor, Re/Max, Fremont

They were the best, it is hard to beat the great service they gave us. Alice really knows how to transform a home from start to finish. It was great to have super nice service, thank you very much.

- The Amaral Family, Sellers, Hayward

I have staged many of my listings during the 15 years that I’ve been in this business, but none is better than Alice of Design Partners. She was easy to work with, a consummate professional and the investment I made in her service resulted in 4 offers with one closing escrow at $ 70,000 over list price!

- Dominic Dutra, Realtor

You guys were amazing. We didn’t know our place could look this good. It definitely made an impact on the selling price.

-Rajiv Raja, Seller, Milpitas

Hey Alice, Julie and I just wanted to say Thank You Very Much for all of your hard work getting Tony and Joy’s house ready for showing. Everyone who walked through loved the staging. One guy liked the set up so much he wanted to buy the home with all the furniture in it. The owners of a competitive listing toured the house and the wife was very jealous because her home wasn’t staged as well. Your work truly made selling Tony and Joy’s place even easier. THANK YOU!

-James & Julie Kim, Intero Real Estate, Los Altos

Thank you Design Partners for assisting me with the sale of my home in the Blossom Valley area. When the tenants vacated, the home was thrashed. With the help of your staging services, I was able to generate offers at $90,000 above asking price. Others were amazed as two homes with identical floorplans in the neighborhood had closed a few weeks prior to mine. The only difference was that those had closed at approximately $125,000 less! Thanks Design Partners, and thank you Alice.

- Adam Santana, Santana Realty, San Jose

Design Partners made my clients’ property shine. All who passed through the doors of my listings left saying “The home is so beautiful!” Simple changes made a big effect!
