Poor Quality/ Overpriced

This company is overpriced. We payed 3000 for home staging. Annie didn’t even provide beds or full furniture and charged us full price. The carpet was dirty and smelly. Don’t waste your money on this company they use the same things at every home staging. Nothing is unique of different. When asked to get carpet replaced she didn’t even bother to send the correct one for the living room.

Company Response

I am surprised and saddened by this review. Anum, I really wish you had fully expressed how you felt back in April when we staged your home so we could have rectified the situation better for you and your family. I had no idea you felt this way, as you praised us when we finished and told us how great everything looked and how happy you were.

I don’t feel this review is an accurate depiction of what truly happened and I am so sorry you feel the way you do. You said you were over charged for the service you received, but we furnished nearly the entire house. The only pieces of yours we did end up using were the beds. The picture you posted is only one room; the living room, which was previously used as a bedroom/ office for your father. You asked us to reduce our fees and keep the cost low, which is the reason we used only the minimum in this room.

We brought in beautiful pieces but on your review you make us sound like we used cheap and dirty items. With regards to the rug issue, we did offer to switch the rug out immediately after you mentioned the odor, but you said you would clean it instead. I was surprised with your suggestion, but agreed to this option. Then when you asked again if we could switch it out, we did so as soon as we could. You originally mentioned that it was the rug in the "living room", when it fact it was the rug in the "family room". That’s where the confusion happened. We followed your instructions and acted based on your request.

Again, I thought you were very pleased with the staging we provided in your home as you never said anything otherwise until now. 😔. Your home did sell relatively quickly, and the virtual tour looked amazing. When you compare the before and after pictures, the outcome was night and day.

We are a small company that has successfully been operating for over 14 yeas. And to be honest, we have never received a bad review like this.

If I could post the before and after pictures on this review I would, because honestly the home did look beautiful. Instead, I will post a link to our Instagram profile where viewers can see our work for what it was, not what is mentioned in this review. https://www.instagram.com/hdstaging/

I do want to add that I did reach out directly to this client by email days ago but have not received a reply.

Home Staging

I am a Realtor in Mississauga. I often use Annie and her team when I list homes for sale on the market. She provides myself and my clients wonderful suggestions, and offers to take care of all items for my clients if they are unable to complete the tasks themselves (ex: painting, moving furniture). Annie offers full staging for properties, and it looks absolutely amazing! Really helps to show the home to buyers, and create the "WOW" factor. Annie is incredibly friendly, easy to talk and work with. I highly recommend Annie and her team, and I will continue to use Home Designs.

I've had Annie meet with my clients a few times over the years. Each and every time the response has been very positive. I completely trust that when I send Annie, things will be done properly, professionally, and the outcome will help me get the home sold quicker, and for a higher amount!

Home Staging

My husband and I are realtors. We thought we knew what had to be done. Annie showed us what more we could do to make the house show a 10+. She provided a detailed plan on what to do, keeping us within a budget that we were comfortable with. Annie has a great eye for the smallest of details and tweaks until she is satisfied with the vision she has. She is undoubtedly the best designer we have worked with. Liz and Ian

Home staging

Annie and her team at Home Designs recently staged my home in the Etobicoke area. I was amazed with the great job they did! I had no idea my home could look so fabulous! My home was sold within 2 days on the market! Annie was very efficient, helpful and informative during the whole process. I'm so happy I decided on Home Designs and would definitely recommend Annie's service to anyone who is looking for an amazing home staging service.

Home Staging

While in the midst of a complete home renovation, we were faced with the dilemma of whether we should put the house on the market totally empty. We looked into home staging without having a clue what to expect. We contacted several companies and ended up going with Home Designs because Annie was so very personable, helpful and willing to assist. She clearly explained the process and when the time came to stage the house, Annie was there on time, when promised, and delivered a service that far exceeeded our expectations. Annie is definitely talented. She made it so easy to get things done. It is obvious that she loves what she does. She really does care. We had an offer within 3 weeks of listing the house and it was sold 3 weeks after that. Home Staging made the difference. Potential buyers could better visualize themselves in the space. I would definitely recommend Annie at Home Designs to anyone selling their home. You don't have to have an empty house like we did. She can do wonders with your existing furniture too. I strongly suggest that you contact her at the beginning of your project. She took the guesswork out of choosing colours and styles. A definite time-saver. You can see the work she did for us at www.richmondhillhouse.com.
