Testimonials

Betsy, The house looks great. Thank you. You & the resident stagers were very instrumental in getting this listing sold. I would happily refer your staging services & I look forward to working with you again.  ”

– Forrest Higdon, listing agent, Keller Williams

I just want you to know how much I have appreciated your help in the past and look forward to working with you in the future.  Dawna Cekuta and I are still in awe of the way you jumped into  the middle of the burst pipe event at the house in Seven Oaks. You were just spectacular and  we just thank you again and again.  If you ever need a reference, don't hesitate to call.”

– Jeanne White, Amelia Bullock Agent

When we decided to sell our [$4,500,000] home on Lake Austin, we interviewed several companies to manage the staging of our home.  We selected Austin Home Staging and were very pleased with the experience. Betsy Richter brought forward creative ideas and made the house look beautiful for showings.  We appreciated her professionalism and dedication to assisting us with every aspect, both inside and outside, until our home sold.  We believe our home sold more quickly due to the efforts of Betsy and Austin Home Staging.”

– Paul and Julie G. Home Owner

Betsy, I want to thank you for being so great to work with. Austin Home Staging exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a staging company.”

– Robert J. Home Owner

It was wonderful working with Betsy. She is a true professional and always had our clients best interests in mind. We will definitely work with her again.”

– Darian Rowlett, Listing Assistant to Susan Griffith, Amelia Bullock Realtors

Betsy has stagers in one of my listings.  She has been wonderful to work with.  I have had several occasions where I need the home ready for an Open House, a video shoot & a photography session.  Betsy not only responded quickly to my requests, but she made sure the stagers had everything ready on time.”

– Jana McCool, listing agent, ReMAX

Betsy does an excellent job, highly recommended.”

– Doug Clark, Realtor, Russell Eppright Custom Homes

We have staged several homes for Betsy and it has been a pleasure to work with her.  In our case we sold our own homes and by staging a beautiful home it provided us with time to look for a new residence without having to sign a long term lease.  The flexibility for us worked well.  We like the professionalism and experience that Betsy has. She is up front on the expectations....no surprises.  She often has a terrific inventory of lovely homes to select from. We can highly recommend Betsy and Austin Home Staging.”

– Linda and Frank F., resident stagers

Our family of five, which included three children under the age of 8 at the time, staged homes with Austin Home Staging for approximately a year and a half.  We were in the process of building a home, sold our home, and needed somewhere to go quick.  We staged 3 GORGEOUS homes and had a wonderful experience.  The program had so many benefits for us. We were able to save quite a bit of money in this program for our future home and live in homes with yards, pools, great neighborhoods and live a normal lifestyle not cooped up in an over priced apartment.  It's an amazing opportunity and we tell everyone we come in contact with that finds themselves in a situation where they need temporary housing, to contact Austin Home Staging.”

– Michelle L., resident stager

Staging a home with Betsy has been one of the most pleasant experiences of my life.  She has a great eye, a wonderful sense of humor and patience of Job.  She always responds quickly to any questions I have and is extremely helpful.  I know it sounds like I am gushing with praise but seriously I do not have a negative thing to say.  I have always been a home owner and was between residences and I can honestly say that I have become a believer in home staging both for the stagers and for the owners and their agents.  It is simply a win/win and Austin Home Staging makes it easy.”

– Deborah H., resident stager

Betsy was a life saver for one of my high-end listings! She came to the rescue when the stager I was using didn't work out. The concept of having a home manager is perfect. The property appears homey and always looks great. It's easy to schedule appointments and property is always ready for showing. Betsy makes sure the furniture suits the home, and adds her own touches to make it perfect!  It's a 'win' for the Sellers as well - the property is occupied and the utilities are paid. I would highly recommend Austin Home Staging.”

– Gail Crann, listing agent, Private Label Realty

Austin Home Staging may be the most professionally run business I have ever worked with, because they did everything that they said they would do. I have used them twice and would not consider trying to sell an empty house ever again. The first time I hired a furniture only staging company before contacting Austin Home Staging. Although the house looked nice, I still had to pay the utilities, take care of the yard, manage the property plus pay the monthly staging fee and… it was still empty and I didn’t get any offers. Very soon after the Austin Home Staging moved in a resident stager, our house sold. I would highly recommend using them and would use them again without hesitation.”

– Cassie W., seller

We have been staging homes for Austin Home Staging for about a year and a half since moving here from the Houston area. Not wanting to jump right in to buying again with an unsure economy and a questionable real estate market, we fortunately knew a couple who had been doing this, and said "Let's try it out". Boy, we are glad we did. Being able to live in upscale homes without the upscale cost (like they say about Resident Stagers on their website) has been very enjoyable if not "A dream come true!". It also has given us an opportunity to live in different areas around Austin which will help us to decide where we will want to live when we are ready to buy. You won't regret giving it a try either, and the people at AHS are there when you need them.”

– Bob and Eva S., resident stagers

Staging my vacant listings with Austin Home Staging has been an answered prayer. Several listings [that did not seem to appeal to anyone] went under contract in a few short weeks after they moved in a home manager and staged the property making myself and my seller very very happy. They are also very efficient and excellent at taking care of major and minor problems that can occur. My sellers have also been completely pleased with the service and assistance they provided. Austin Home Staging has an eye for bringing out the best in every property they work with.”

– Jo Carol Snowden, listing agent, Moreland Properties

Betsy Richter with Austin Home Staging always exceeds my expectations. I continue to be thrilled with her work, professionalism, dependability and attention to detail. I have been just as nervous as my Sellers about having a resident stager care for each property. But every time they have staged one of my listings, it has “worked” and I am convinced that their efforts were an integral part of the entire package. Homes properly staged sell faster and for more money.”

– Kay Andrews, listing agent, Amelia Bullock

Hello Betsy. I have to say to you that you have been a jewel, the way your company has handled all this horrible mess with the plumbing problems at my house… You have been incredibly professional and I am completely impressed… I will forever talk about the wonderful people at Austin Home Staging.”

– Marina A., seller

I worked with Austin Home Staging to furnish a very upscale home as the owners were moving overseas. Betsy and her crew were organized and accommodating to our every need. Their attention to detail and the quality of their work made the house look fabulous and it sold! Thank you Betsy for making what could have been a tough job an easy one. ”

– Lori R., representative for seller

Betsy, not only did you make the process flow smoothly, I have to think your setup made the house sell!! It’s always a pleasure to recommend people who actually perform as advertised.”

– Cathy W., seller

I love the photos, the house looks so much better than I ever would have dreamed of. You did such a wonderful job. Thank You!”
