Behind the Scenes: Our Home Styling Process from Consultation to Installation


When you’re preparing your home for sale in Brisbane, every detail matters. From the curb appeal to the artwork on the walls, how your property presents can directly impact how fast it sells—and for how much.

At Sold on Staging, we don’t just place furniture—we craft a buyer-ready experience that’s tailored, professional, and stress-free. Wondering how it all works?

Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at our home staging process in Brisbane—from the first phone call to final installation.

📝 Step 1: The Initial Styling Consultation

Every successful styling project begins with a personal touch.

We’ll meet you onsite to walk through the property. During this consultation, we:

  • Assess the layout, lighting, and architecture

  • Identify the target buyer and tailor a strategy around them

  • Discuss timelines, budget, and occupancy (vacant or lived-in)

  • Take detailed photos or video for design planning

  • Review your existing furniture (for partial styling)

This initial visit gives us everything we need to start creating a bespoke styling plan that works for your home.

Timeline: Consultations typically last 30–45 minutes. You’ll receive a tailored quote within 24 hours.

🎨 Step 2: Concept Creation and Styling Strategy

Back at our warehouse, we review your home’s visuals and start mapping out the best way to present your space.

We consider:

  • The property's layout and flow

  • Buyer psychology and emotional triggers

  • Trends relevant to the Brisbane market

  • Your home's architectural features

Then, our stylists carefully select furniture, art, rugs, lighting, and décor from our in-house collection. Because we own all our inventory, there’s no waiting on hire stock or compromises on creative direction.

This is where the magic happens. Every styling choice is made with intention—from cushion textures to colour palettes.

📦 Step 3: Packing, Scheduling & Coordination

Once your design is finalised, our team prepares for installation. This includes:

  • Carefully packing all furniture and accessories

  • Coordinating with professional movers

  • Organising access with the real estate agent or vendor

If additional services are required (such as cleaners, painters, or handymen), we help coordinate those too using our trusted trade partners across Brisbane.

Bonus Tip: Need to store your furniture while we style? We offer easy storage solutions via our TAXIBOX partnership.

🛋️ Step 4: Professional Installation Day

Installation day is where your home transforms.

Our team of stylists and movers arrive onsite and work room by room, ensuring:

  • Furniture is correctly scaled to the space

  • Artwork is hung at eye level for impact

  • Cushions are fluffed, beds are dressed, and every vignette is styled with precision

The result? A cohesive, inviting home that feels aspirational yet attainable.

Timeline: Installation typically takes 3–6 hours depending on property size and accessibility.

📷 Step 5: Photography-Ready Finish

Once the styling is complete, your property is photo-ready. We ensure every room looks perfect for your marketing campaign, whether you're organising your own photographer or using our preferred partners.

Note: Even if the property is uplifted later, you keep the professional photos for continued online advertising.

🔁 Step 6: Post-Styling Support & Flexibility

Selling timelines can change—and we get that.

If your property hasn’t sold by the end of the initial hire period, we offer:

  • Flexible weekly extensions

  • Discounted monthly rehire options

  • A quick and professional uplift process once your home is sold

We’re also on standby to re-style if needed, especially for properties that didn’t sell the first time around.
