MARY PENNEY, OWNER
Professional home staging in Northeast Ohio serving the Greater Summit, Portage, Medina and Cuyahoga Counties
I am an experienced real estate professional based in Northeast Ohio. I have been working as a home stager since 2019, but have been a REALTOR and real estate Broker since 1990. My background in selling and staging real estate for over 30 years helps me to see properties as a commodity that should be displayed to maximize return.
Did you know that prospects will stay in a staged home for around 40 minutes, versus 5 in an empty house? (According to REALTOR.org) My goal is to help buyers envision themselves in the home and what lifestyle they could have there. Professional home staging helps the property appeal to the greatest number of buyers and that helps sellers to get top dollar for their home.

FINISHED ROOMS
Limited home staging starts at $2,040 (Please see detailed pricing below) Through my 30+ years of experience in real estate, I have learned exactly how a house should show to attract the most number of buyers. Selling a property means selling a lifestyle. At MAP Home Staging, we strive for a fresh and welcoming look that is not taste specific. This is the difference between interior decorating and staging to sell- and there is a science to it!!!
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
EXCEEDING YOUR EXPECTIONS IS OUR JOB
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU CONSIDER STAGING WITH US:
We own all of our staging furniture, rugs, art and accessories etc. All items are purchased new, except for a very few unique and high end vintage pieces and custom artwork. We are a vacant homes only staging company. The cost of our ever evolving inventory is almost $75,000, and all items are carefully selected for beauty as well as taste level. We do not use repurposed or "up-cycled" items. Because we do not rent furniture or moving van (we have our own) you will not have other contracts or costs to worry about. We strive for perfection in our home staging, and hope you will not mind if we showcase the finished product on social media.
