FAQ

Venice questions, answered.

Which areas do you serve?

Sarasota, Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch, Venice, Siesta Key, Longboat Key, Anna Maria Island, St. Petersburg, and the surrounding Florida Suncoast. If you are just outside that list, ask — we travel for the right project.

How much does home staging cost in Sarasota?

Most vacant staging projects on the Suncoast run from around $2,000 for a focused, few-room package up to $6,000+ for a large or luxury home, billed as an initial design-and-install fee plus a monthly rental period. Occupied staging that uses what you already own costs considerably less. Every quote follows a walkthrough — we do not price a home we have not seen.

How quickly can you stage my listing?

Once we have walked the property and agreed on scope, a typical vacant staging is installed within one to two weeks, depending on inventory and access. If you are working against a photography date, tell us at the first call and we will tell you honestly whether we can hit it.

What is the difference between vacant and occupied staging?

Vacant staging means we bring in all the furniture, art, and accessories for an empty home. Occupied staging means you are still living there and we edit, rearrange, and supplement what you already own. Vacant is a full installation; occupied is closer to a professional restyle.

Who will I actually be working with?

Betsy Mincey, the owner, runs every project personally — she does the walkthrough, builds the design, and is on site for the install with her team. You are not handed off to a rotating account manager.

What is the first step?

Send us a note with your address, timeline, and a few photos. Betsy will come back to arrange a walkthrough, and after that you receive a written proposal with scope and pricing. There is no charge for the conversation.
