At The Perfect Edit, our mission has always been to help homes look their absolute best before hitting the market. But lately, we’ve taken things a step further, by joining forces with our trusted in-house contractor (who also happens to be my husband!). Now, we’re not just staging homes—we’re helping homeowners transform them through strategic, design-focused renovations that increase their market value and get them sold faster.

Whether it’s outdated flooring, tired kitchen finishes, or a paint color that screams 2009, we’re helping clients make smart updates before listing, so they can walk away with the highest possible return.

The Problem With “List As-Is”

Too often, sellers put their homes on the market thinking buyers will “see the potential.” But the truth is, most buyers can’t. Instead, they scroll right past that dark kitchen or dated bathroom. First impressions are everything, and in today’s market, homes need to show up turnkey.

The good news? You don’t need a full renovation to make an impact. Minor cosmetic updates, new lighting, fresh paint, updated hardware—can completely change the feel of a home. And when paired with thoughtful staging, it becomes irresistible to buyers.

Why Strategic Design Matters

It’s not just about updating for the sake of it. Every change we recommend is intentional, rooted in buyer psychology, current design trends, and what’s moving homes in your market.

We help homeowners:

  • Choose paint colors that brighten and modernize
  • Update kitchen and bathroom hardware for a quick, stylish refresh
  • Select light fixtures that elevate a room’s entire vibe
  • Reimagine layout and flow for functionality and impact

This design-forward approach ensures that every dollar spent before listing is an investment—not a guess.

Staging + Renovation = A Powerful Duo

By combining our design expertise with in-house renovation services, we’re now able to offer clients a one-stop solution. That means:

  • No more coordinating with multiple vendors
  • No confusion between what to fix and what to leave
  • No missed opportunities to increase value

We can walk into a home, recommend the exact changes needed to get it market-ready, handle the updates, and stage it to perfection—all under one roof.

Real Results: A Recent Example

We recently worked with a homeowner whose property had been sitting unsold for over 60 days. After a consultation, we recommended new flooring in the main areas, a fresh coat of paint, updated light fixtures, and a partial stage.

Within two weeks, the updates were completed. The home hit the market—and sold in 4 days for well over asking.

That’s the power of renovation + staging, done right.
