How long does a Feng Shui redecorating/redesign consultation take?

A redecorating/redesign consultation lasts from one-and-a-half to three hours per room, which allows us to consult on as many rooms as the client desires in just one day.

How many visits are necessary?

Redecorating requires only one visit to the home because everything is done in one day. This saves our clients both time and money.

Do I stay home during the redecorating process?

Always. Our consultations require the client's participation, and therefore we never ask a client to leave their home. We respect that the furnishings belong to our clients and not to us. We involve our clients in every step of the decision-making process. This insures that each client has her/his preferences reflected in the way the home is redecorated.

Will you just rearrange furniture or consult on empty rooms too?

We are paid for our expertise and the information we provide, therefore we frequently consult on empty rooms too (such as when clients are moving into a new home) and provide full-service decorating services.

I'm terrified of making expensive decorating mistakes. How can I save time and money?

Our consultations highlight educating clients. This approach empowers homeowners and renters so they become more independent and relaxed about their projects. We always make sure all of our clients' questions are answered and that they are clear about all aspects of their project before the consultations end. The results help our clients achieve their decorating goals and save time and money.

Can you rearrange a house quickly to help it sell for the best price?

Absolutely. We specialize in transforming homes quickly and easily. Since 1990 the proven Resale-Ready™ Redecorating consultation has helped thousands of homeowners and realtors sell their houses and apartments faster and for much more money by making rooms look less cluttered, brighter, honestly prettier and more comfortable in just hours. Resale-Ready™ consultations support sellers' credibility. Instead of renting props (as in Staging), we remedy decorating mistakes instantly by using existing furnishings most effectively. If any purchases or changes are needed, we give sellers written plans with easy, inexpensive suggestions that can be implemented immediately. This allows real estate brokers to have successful open houses in just days. (Please note: Resale-Ready™ Redecorating is not just for sellers. This advice is automatically provided to all homeowners with every consultation to help them increase the value of their home.)

What if all I want is just a Feng Shui or Color consultation? What about just having my accessories rearranged?

Feng Shui remedies and color selection are provided free of charge with the redecorating/redesign of the room(s). However, if all you need are Feng Shui remedies to existing problems in your home, or help in choosing the right colors for your decor, these services are provided on an hourly rate basis, with a 2-hour minimum. It is the same for the Art and Accessory Consultation, which is an affordable option for homeowners who want to keep their accent pieces feeling up-to-the-minute, elegant and pulled together.

How will I know if you share my style preference? And how will I know what a consultation costs?

We have great respect for our clients' preferences and therefore work in every style, be it traditional, modern, country or eclectic. The basis for every consultation is the feedback provided by each client at the time of her or his consultation. We charge a flat, by-the-room rate for consultations and will also shop for or with a client, charging an hourly fee. We always accommodate full service clients.
