Celebrating Excellence: Nestiny is Awarded the 2024 Best Rising Star in Occupied Staging

We are thrilled to announce that on of our recent staging projects has been recognized with a RESA Home Staging Industry Award, celebrating the transformative design and attention to detail that brought this home to life. This honour reflects the dedication and creativity that we pour into every project, ensuring that every home stands out and captivates potential buyers.

The Home: A Perfect Blend of Character and Modern Appeal

This award-winning home was already a gem with a lot of character, thanks to its caring owners. The property featured tasteful lighting, well-maintained furniture, and a brick accent wall—a highly sought-after design element that added charm and uniqueness to the space. Our goal was to enhance the home’s existing appeal while introducing strategic updates that would attract families, particularly first-time homebuyers.

Our Staging Strategy

While the home already had a strong foundation, we knew that a few key updates would elevate it further. Here’s how we approached the project:

Supplying Updated Furniture and Decor: We supplemented the owner’s existing furniture with modern pieces that complemented the home’s aesthetic. By updating the decor and adding carefully chosen accessories, we created a fresh, inviting atmosphere without losing the home’s natural character.

Highlighting the Brick Wall: The brick wall was a standout feature, so we made sure to highlight it. We positioned furniture and decor in a way that drew attention to this unique design element, making it a focal point for potential buyers.

Appealing to Families: Located in a quiet area with excellent schools, we knew that families would be drawn to this home. To appeal to families, we emphasized the practical and versatile spaces, including the basement, which could be used as a bedroom for in-laws, teenagers, or visitors. Additionally, the basement’s ample storage space was a huge selling point, offering convenience and organization for busy households.

Creating a Cozy, Yet Modern Vibe: The combination of the home’s character and our staging created a cozy yet contemporary feel, perfect for newer or smaller families. We wanted buyers to walk in and feel at home, imagining their lives unfolding in the space.

The ‘Before’

Why This Project Stood Out

What made this staging project particularly special—and award-winning—was the seamless balance between preserving the home’s natural charm and incorporating modern, buyer-friendly updates. We worked with the home’s existing features, like the brick wall and quality accent pieces, while making small, impactful changes that resonated with today’s buyers.

The result? A warm, inviting home that appealed to both first-time buyers and families looking for a versatile, move-in-ready space.

A Winning Formula for Success

This award is a testament to our approach to occupied staging: working with what you already have, enhancing it with expert touches, and designing with the target buyer in mind. We are honoured to have been recognized for this project and are excited to continue delivering top-notch staging services that help homes shine and sell faster.
