Spruce-to-Sell & Full Vacant Staging | Southern California

From Walkthrough to Sold: A Full-Service Pre-Listing Transformation

When a Southern California homeowner needed expert guidance to prepare his property for market, he called on Michele Sprauer of DomaStyle Design for a complete spruce-to-sell and vacant home staging solution—one that would elevate the home's appeal and take the stress out of the process.

Michele began with a detailed walkthrough, evaluating the space from a buyer’s perspective. She provided the homeowner with a customized list of recommended improvements to maximize value and visual impact. Once approved, she handled everything—from hiring and managing all tradespeople to overseeing the work from start to finish—allowing the homeowner to step back and feel confident the home was in expert hands.

The updates included:

  • Interior painting

  • Refinishing tubs and sinks

  • Cleaning and refreshing exterior railings and patio cushions

  • Updating dated light fixtures

Once all improvements were complete, Michele fully staged the vacant home, carefully curating and installing furnishings, art, décor, and bedding to showcase the property’s layout, natural light, and potential.

The result was a beautifully presented, move-in-ready home that stood out in the market—and sold with ease.

Testimonials

  • Earlier this year, my realtors and I hired Michele Sprauer of DomaStyle Design to prepare our home for sale.
    After interviewing and receiving proposals from several top staging companies, we chose DomaStyle because of the quality of their proposal their competitive pricing, and their innovative “spruce to sell” services.
    Michele and her crew ended up doing an amazing job! They cleaned up a wide range of “blemishes” (paint, plumbing, electrical, wood work, etc),  staged our property with stylish furnishings, and made our beautiful beach house look it’s absolute best!
    Thank you Michele - I look forward to working with you again!

  • Michele was a tremendous asset and an excellent partner in the sale of our property in Hermosa Beach. She expertly supervised the repairs, painting, color choices, and needed renovations. She was open to suggestions, but also fully capable of deciding on a lovely vision she thought fit our home, and then she executed it flawlessly with sophistication and elegance. Everyone who came through during open houses raved about the charm and beauty of the home, and they all loved her style and presentation.

    Michele also worked with excellent tradespeople - which is incredibly valuable. You could tell she was a well-respected and favored designer by these skilled craftspeople because they would reschedule other jobs to complete her jobs first. That meant they did great work, ahead of schedule, for reasonable prices. Michele and her team all worked efficiently and cost-effectively, which was outstanding for us.

    Michele’s contribution was so much more valuable than the cost of her services. I would heartily recommend her to anyone selling today. You will be amazed by the transformation she magically creates.
