Client Experience & Support
We’ve been transforming homes with expert staging and design since 2017—over 8 years of helping clients achieve their property goals with thoughtful, tailored solutions that make a lasting impact.
Siela "Ela" is the passionate founder behind FIB Home Staging & Interior Design. Her love for design is rooted in a deep belief that home is more than a place—it’s a feeling. Guided by a family-driven approach, Ela treats each project with the same care and attention she’d give her own, blending thoughtful design with a clear vision for your success.
With a sharp eye for detail and a warm, strategic mindset, Ela ensures every staging experience is seamless, stress-free, and purposefully tailored to help your property stand out—and sell with confidence.
Under her leadership, FIB Home Staging & Interior Design has earned recognition as a Best Rated Business and has been featured in various publications—to name a few: the Central Valley Business Journal and Redfin, where her insight and impact have been highlighted among leading voices in the industry.
We proudly serve Stockton, Lathrop, Manteca, Oakdale, Modesto, Lodi, Tracy, Mountain House, Brentwood, and surrounding areas. We've also had the pleasure of working in parts of the East Bay, including Fremont, Union City, and Newark—bringing our home staging expertise to a broader community.
For properties outside our local service area, we offer remote staging and design services tailored to your needs.
To confirm and check if we serve your area, simply complete our Guided Instant Staging Quote or Design Brief form, or reach out to us directly—we’re always happy to assist.
Here are a few reasons why FIB Home Staging & Interior Design stand-out:
Transparent, Upfront Pricing, & Simplified Approach to Serving Clients
Our signature Guided Instant No-Wait Staging Quote tool is first of its kind in providing ease and a detailed staging quote for our clients. It offers a detailed breakdown of your staging plan, timeline, & costs from the very beginning, empowering you with clarity and eliminating surprises. You’ll never have to guess what you’re paying for. We also provide helpful resources and clear service overviews so you can make informed decisions from the start.
Proactive, Thoughtful Project Management
Unlike many staging companies, we believe transparency isn’t just nice to have—it’s essential. From initial consultation to final install, our process is clear, organized, and tailored around your timeline. You’ll always know what to expect, with regular updates and prompt communication throughout.
Data-Informed Design Strategies
Our design approach is backed by market knowledge and buyer psychology specific to the Stockton and Central Valley areas. We don’t just make spaces look good—we strategically showcase your home’s most desirable features to connect with the right audience and maximize appeal.
Tangible, Real-World Results
While success depends on several factors—such as pricing, condition, market timing, and the strength of your listing—staging often plays a vital role. Over 90% of the homes we’ve staged in Stockton and surrounding areas have received offers or showing requests shortly after listing, often seeing far more engagement than comparable unstaged homes.
Although results aren’t guaranteed and outcomes can vary, we aim to give your home its strongest possible advantage.
Family-Owned, People-Focused
FIB is proudly family-owned and deeply rooted in the values of trust, care, and service. We treat every home as if it were our own and are honored to be part of your selling or settling journey. At the end of the day, your success feels personal to us—because it is.
Recognized for Excellence
We’re grateful to have earned the trust of our community and industry peers. FIB has been named one of the Three Best Rated staging companies in the area, received Best in Quality for Home Staging, and been featured in respected platforms like Redfin and the Central Valley Journal, to name a few.
