Design and Staging
What’s included…
More Than an Agent - A Visionary Partner
What sets Michele Rose apart isn’t just her market knowledge—it’s her lived experience as a property investor, her impeccable eye for design, and her deep devotion to the Marco Island lifestyle.
She understands what today’s buyers are drawn to because she’s one of them: she’s walked the properties, made the upgrades, and maximized the returns. Her elevated taste, shaped by hands-on experience, allows her to position each listing not just as a home, but as a lifestyle—beautifully presented, emotionally resonant, and investment-smart.
Sellers benefit from her ability to stage and style a property without the immediate need for costly design professionals, while buyers gain a trusted advisor who can help them see both the potential and the value.
With Michele, you’re not just getting a Realtor—you’re gaining a partner with the vision, dedication, and finesse to help you succeed on Marco Island.
Above and Beyond Staging Touches
Michele is known for her personal, hands-on approach to presenting a home in its best light—often stepping in even when sellers or tenants are absent. She’ll thoughtfully enhance each space with fresh flowers, new bedspreads, plush pillows, kitchen and dining arrangements, and coastal-inspired accents that evoke emotion and connection from buyers. With a keen eye and attention to budget, she often goes above and beyond—even investing her own resources when needed—to ensure your home leaves a lasting impression..
Property Re-Fresh and Pre-Listing Prep
For homes that need a little more than styling, Michele guides sellers through smart, cost-effective improvements. This may include fresh paint, crown molding, updated baseboards, new carpet or luxury vinyl flooring, updated light fixtures, wallpaper accents, or even simple but impactful upgrades like replacing outlet covers and switch plates. These small enhancements, when coordinated correctly, make a big visual difference and elevate the perceived value of your home.
Full Service Project Management
When a home requires full or partial staging—or the seller won’t be leaving furniture—Michele steps in as your project manager. She coordinates every aspect of the process: arranging rental furniture, hiring staging companies on your behalf, with your approval, overseeing contractors, and managing timelines with precision, depending upon the need.
Whether staging the primary living areas or transforming the entire home, she ensures every detail is thoughtfully executed. She also plans showings and broker tours to maximize impact—and utilizes innovative tools that let buyers visualize updates like flooring, paint, cabinetry, or even windows in real time. It’s turnkey service designed to sell your home faster and for more.
