"We wanted to let you know how pleased we were.

A friend summed it up with these words- Restful and luxurious upstairs, elegant, upmarket with a lovely pop of colour on the living level.

So thanks to all the team that put it all together."

"Hi Anita,

All items were collected today by your team in a timely manner.

Can you please just pass on a big thank you to all the team for the excellent styling and efficient processes. We have sold the house and your work certainly made some of the process much simpler for us. I will certainly recommend your company to others for their excellent work.

Thanks again and best wishes to everyone for a peace-filled Christmas."

- Anne

"Dear Anthea and the Homebase team,

We wanted to thank you for the excellent service you provided for our recent house sale.  Your valuable decorating advice was simple and achievable for non-decorators like us and made a huge difference to how our home was presented.  The addition of the items we could hire from you at a very reasonable cost really enhanced our opportunity to promote our home in the best possible light.  Your team was so helpful and easy to work with – nothing was too much trouble and the result was very pleasing.

With thanks and kind regards."

- Mark and Glenis

"Hi Anita,

I just wanted to say thank you to you and your team.

WOW  – that’s all my husband could say over and over again – we were so thrilled to see the staging and interestingly we both said that is exactly how we wanted our home to look, its simply stunning

And the colours are the colours we love, you have a talented team – its just brilliant

So again a very big thank you for making our home look so very special.

I will enjoy it for the next few weeks and I really hope those that view the house like it too."

"Hi Anthea, Anita, Tate and the staging chaps.

Just want to say thank you for the amazing job you did on our apartment. We are so happy with the result. You took my brief and executed it to perfection! Our land agents from Barfoots are very impressed both with the look and the price. They asked who had done the staging as it was so much better than other apartments that had been staged in that block.

Thank you again."

- Ali Clarke

"Dear Tate,

I would like to say, what an outstanding and brilliant job you and your stylist have done.

The Mandalay Penthouse has reached its prime, looks amazing, Furniture and accessories well selected, well placed, detailed, coloured (thanks for not using the turquoise) so appropriately and using textures to give it a warm feel.

Thank you too for being so accommodating with the second styling on Tue morning.

With Jill’s selling and writing skills, this place will find a very happy owner.

Warm regards."

- Brigitte Richards

"Thanks for the beautiful staging in our property, it really created the feeling of heart and soul to make our empty house a home.

I highly recommend the team at Homebase, they were totally professional throughout the entire process of set up, to removal, ensuring we achieved the asking price in a flat property market.

Thanks again."

- Chrissy, West Harbour

"Hi Melissa,

Hugh and I also wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who was involved in this job.  You did an amazing job at this home (9 Castleford St).  We had so many compliments from buyers on the way the home was presented (perfect pieces & proportions etc were great).  The vendor was also very very impressed.

We’ll certainly come back to you again in the near future.

Kind regards."

- Paul & Hugh

"Hi Anthea,

The townhouse looks fabulous. You and the team have done an excellent job. You chose just the right furniture to make the living/dining area look more spacious than it actually is and kept a large area open in that area so one’s eyes and feet naturally head out to the ranch slider and deck and garden outside.

So once again, many thanks indeed.

Kind regards."

- Ronnie

"Dear Melisha,

I would like to take this opportunity of thanking you, your company and Anthea for the seamless effortless and creative staging of our apartment at the Hereford residences. I can honestly say that it aided and abetted a successful sale at the right price, and Liana and I are thrilled at the outcome.

I would not hesitate in recommending your company to anyone contemplating staging.

Kind regards."

- Terry and Liana Slade-Baker

"Hi Melisha,

Just to let you know the Stagers did an awesome job with the house yesterday. Mark and I are delighted with what they have done – hopefully prospective buyers love it as much as we do. Please pass on our thanks to the team involved."

- Claire

"Hi Anthea,

I couldn’t let another week go by without saying thank you for the terrific home-staging at my mother’s home in Sunnynook.  It looks super and I’m sure that it will make all the difference in presentation to prospective purchasers.  The company staff were incredibly organised and very pleasant to deal with so I was more than happy to leave them to wave their magic wands about the place!

Thanks again."

- Diane

"Hi Anthea,

Anita and Hannah did an amazing job, the house looks way better than we could have imagined

Thank you so much for all you help and advice, we are delighted with how it has turned out!

Cheers."

- David

"Hi Anthea,

I just wanted to drop you a note to give you some fantastic feedback.  I LOVE what you and your team have done at 83 Fisher Point Drive – it looks sensational and I will definitely be recommending you.

It actually sold today – someone who saw it at the first open home, fell in love and bought it for what I wanted.  Quite unexpected, but I have a feeling your wonderful work helped seal the deal.

Thanks again & have a fantastic week. Warmest."

- Melanie

"Good afternoon Melisha, Anthea, Anita & Marie and the boys in the truck – and anyone else I may have missed.

Just a note to thank you so much for a really stunning staging at Wimbledon Way. You have done us proud and the vendor and we are both extremely happy with what you achieved.

Also, may I say how pleasant it was to have you arrive on time and complete the job so quickly and efficiently.

A big thank you from all of us. We look forward to a successful sale and will certainly recommend you to others.

Kind Regards."

- Joneen Smith, Bayleys Real Estate Ltd

"Hi Anthea,

I didn’t go to the house until Saturday..what a fantastic surprise.

MAGNIFICENT..I was so delighted with your furniture selection and accessories perfect to the brief ..I loved the painting.. perfect.

A great big thank you to Anita and Hannah for placement and set up.

I will have no hesitation to refer the company to friends who are looking to sell.

ITS SO PERFECT THAT I DONT KNOW IF I REALLY WANT TO SELL IT. IT LOOKS TO GOOD!!!.

All the best with future business. Kind Regards.

- Heather Pierce

"Anthea went above and beyond in her approach and service. Her company is only slightly dearer than most but trust me it was worth every cent. I cannot stress to owners enough the importance of house dressing and Anthea was very flexible about what things of ours could stay and what she could compliment.

TEN out of TEN."

- Neil & LeAnne

"It is with thanks to the staging of Homebase that we were able to achieve a premium at auction. Buyers throughout the marketing campaign consistently commented on how impressed they were with the presentation of the home.

I was totally impressed by the professionalism of the staging team and how they transformed the home. I would not hesitate to highly recommend their services, and look forward to working with them in the future."

- Jackie Ostrowski, Barfoots Titirangi

"I was a little dubious at the whole staging idea. My partner convinced me that we should do it. I am SO glad we did. It certainly made a huge difference in the attention our house received, and the end result in the sale at auction. Homebase did a fantastic job, and from our perspective it made a stressful time very easy. I will certainly recommend you to anyone considering staging."

- Beth Morrison

"Thank you and Anita for the wonderful job you did at our house. You were all so easy to deal with and the guys picking up the furniture were great, they are a good asset to your team! Will definitely use you again and recommend you to my friends."

- Wendy Lumley

"I just wanted to say how happy I am with the staging of the house! It really looks fabulous and I love the pieces that you chose. You really listened to the style and colour scheme I had in mind and to be honest it exceeded my expectations!!"

- Bronwyn Steptoe

"Just a note to say thank you so much for dressing the upstairs of the Box home. It looked fantastic. I will certainly recommend you in future."

- Claire McCall

"I’ve been meaning to get in touch to thank you for the amazing job you did with our house. It sold in six days and the price went beyond our wildest dreams. The agent reports everyone who came through the house, without exception, commented on how beautifully decorated it was…thanks to you guys.

One woman asked if I was an interior designer? A couple of people asked if they were the successful bidder at auction could they buy some things from us, including your hide rug that was in the media room!

I think the reaction from prospective buyers tells me you got the look and feel just right…it wasn’t like a display home that no-one would ever live in, yet it was stunning enough to produce that WOW factor and a genuine desire to live here.

We are so pleased we used you and believe it was the best investment we could have made to ensure top dollar at auction. Thanks again girls …you were all a pleasure to work with and you really know your stuff!"

- Neva and David Sinclair

"Thanks for the great honest and reliable service and we will definitely recommend your superb service to all."

- Craig and Sydney

"Thank you to you and your team also! The staging certainly enhanced the property and made it much more appealing for sale. Will definitely keep you in mind in the future if we need something similar again."

- Toni

"We have had a number of wonderful comments from various people regarding the furniture staging you have done for us at Millhouse Homes, it has totally transformed the terrace houses into a lovely warm living environment which I believe will help our clients to make an easy decision to want to purchase. Once again great job."

- Dene Moss-Mason

"Thanks Homebase, a pleasure working with y’all. All the best to Anita and the rest of the team that helped! The house looked great and we are more than pleased with the results."

- Aaron Eparvier

"We have sold in just one week! An absolute feeding frenzy, I’m sure helped greatly by the beautiful staging you put together. Thank you so much."

- Sarah

"I have had the pleasure of working with Anthea and her team at Homebase for many years now.

Homebase has the wonderful ability to adapt to each individual situation offering exciting solutions for each clients particular needs, style and budget.

They are so accommodating offering many options and greatly assist in maximising a properties attributes, ensuring the best possible presentation is achieved."

- Lisa-Maree Wallen | Ray White Ponsonby

"This was the first time that we have ever used a homestaging service and I must admit we were a bit sceptical about it in the start.

However, we decided to give it a go anyway and must confess it was one of the best decisions we ever made. Thank you so much for the wonderful job you and your team did and that too at such short notice!

The colours, theme and items you chose for our house definitely made a big difference. The house is now sold and we are convinced that your homestaging was one of the key factors that assisted in the sale of the house.

We would certainly recommend your services to other people trying to sell their property. Staging works!!"

- Sonia and Les

"Thank you so much for going the extra mile staging Wiseley Rd. The house looks amazing. You really delivered more than I expected.

The combination of colours is just perfect, I feel confident that we are going to attract big numbers of buyers with the ambience and atmosphere you have created. Thank you very much!"

- Analia Gentile | Barfoot and Thompson

"I found your company both friendly and professional and would have no hesitation in recommending you to friends and family. Best regards."

- Katalina

"I am so thrilled to report that we have sold our house in Remuera! The way you dressed the house made it shine and we had incredible feedback. So thank you so much for helping us sell our house in 1 week from when we put it on the market. In the end we didn’t go with an agent. We took photos and put it on trade me!"

- Libby Weaver

"Homebase have made the difference between selling and not selling for me. My property was on the market for 3 months before I employed them to ‘dress’ it. They did this with efficiency and flair and within a week it was sold. The choice between a well-furnished home and an empty has one result – get it professionally furnished by this team. Thank you."

- Susy Bretherton

"We have sold, and I want to say that I am positive that the staging really affected the price, particularly as it all photographed so well and our buyers were from overseas and didn’t go through the property, rather relied on their parents viewing and the internet. So thank you."

- Clare Cryer

"Just wanted to say a big thanks for the tremendous job you did with the staging of the home. It really pulled the whole project together and the feedback from the owners, team and buyers alike has been so positive.

We will certainly be recommending your company to other potential vendors that require the polish to their product that you so professionally provide. Thanks once again."

- Stuart & Tony

"I am writing to express our appreciation of the recent homestaging of our newly built house. To be quite honest we did not imagine that a professional company that does home staging as a business would do so with such care and excellence.

Every detail was exquisite – certainly well above and beyond the call of duty! As a result of staging, our house was presented to the market in the best possible way. We have recommended Homebase to others and will continue to do so."

- Mary & Bill Ashby

"I valued the way that Anthea listened to what I wanted but also extended me. She added her knowledge and expertise, and I got a real appreciation for my own sense of style.

The creativity and flair she had was fantastic, but it was her ability to make the whole process so seamless, simple and stress free that was so great.

The value of my home increased instantly. I only wish I’d used Anthea when I moved into my house rather than when I was selling – I almost didn’t want to sell the place after I’d seen how great it could look."

- Jacqueline Smart

"Thanks again for helping me stage part of my home. We were having open homes in order to sell our house, and the comments prior to staging were that my office looked too small for a double bed.

I rang Homebase and you did a fantastic job choosing items to set up and quickly transformed it into a cosy bedroom. The next open home went very well and we sold in short order. A professional and friendly outfit all around."

- Whit Preston

"Thank you for the time you spent selecting pieces of furniture to enhance the look of my home when putting it up for sale. Some of the items that you suggested, particularly the desk and chair that turned an awkward space into a little office, really enhanced the home, and the value to potential buyers.

Your suggestions on what items to tidy up, remove from the property, along with buying some colourful flowers for pots were also very cost effective and made for a better presented home."

- Kirstin

"We would like to thank you very much for the friendly and professional service that you provided to us recently, when we were preparing our house for marketing.

You have all been very friendly and always willing to help. Nothing was too much effort – even our difficult stair access! It was great being able to hire pieces using your Pick ‘n’ Mix option, rather than being forced into taking a package of a house-lot of furniture.

Our living room was transformed and looked quite the part for the marketing photography and open homes we held. It certainly gave the house the added extra that it needed, and we have had a lot of interest in the house."

- Yvonne and Kieran McLean

"I am an artistic person and I didn’t want to turn my home into a show home, it was important that it still reflected my personality as we were still living in the house. I wanted to feel that I was listened to and this is exactly what happened.

Anthea didn’t bulldoze me, and we were able to work together with my personal style which we elevated to appeal to a broader target market. We were totally thrilled as we achieved well over our dream price. The house looked blooming brilliant, Thanks so much for your guidance."
