Welcome to the Next Step in Your Staging Journey!
Now that you've reviewed your personalized proposal and service details, let's just confirm everything's good to go. Please confirm your agreement below, and we'll be ready to proceed and get things moving for you.
OUR AGREEMENT: SIMPLE TERMS FOR A SMOOTH STAGING EXPERIENCE
1. What We Provide
We offer full-service home staging as outlined in your Custom Staging Proposal. This includes space planning, delivery, setup, styling, furniture and décor rental, and final removal once staging is complete.
2. Securing Your Booking & Payment Options
To reserve your staging date, the full staging fee (as listed in your Proposal) must be confirmed before staging begins.
We offer multiple payment methods to fit your preference:
💳 Credit Card Pre-Authorization (Recommended)
A temporary hold is placed on your card. Once your staging plan is reviewed and approved, the card is charged and your booking is automatically confirmed. If updates are needed, we’ll reach out before charging.
🏦 Zelle or Digital Check
Pay directly with no processing fees. We hold a card on file to secure your spot. Payment must be received within 2 days of approval.
💼 On-Site Cash or Check Pickup
We’ll coordinate a secure drop-off or pickup at the property. Your card will remain on file until the payment is confirmed. No processing fees apply.
🧾 Klarna (Buy Now, Pay Later)
Split payments into installments. We’ll place a temporary hold to reserve your date, and Klarna finalizes payment once approved.
Klarna terms and conditions apply.
📄 Notable Pay-at-Closing (for Sellers with Agents/Listings)
Defer payment until your home sells. Notable pays us directly through escrow at closing.
A card is held on file until Notable confirms approval. Subject to their terms and processing.
3. Payment Confirmation & Timelines
Once your plan is approved, we’ll send instructions specific to your selected payment method.
You’ll have up to 4 days from approval to finalize payment. After this window, priority holds may be released.
By Payment Type:
-
Credit Card Pre-Authorization – No action needed unless updates are required. We’ll confirm once charged.
-
Zelle / Digital Check – Submit payment and email a screenshot for confirmation. If sending a check, include clear photos of front and back.
-
On-Site Payment – Prepare exact cash or a cashier’s check in a sealed, labeled envelope. We’ll coordinate pickup (lockbox access may be used).
-
Klarna – Complete the approval form via our link and email us a screenshot of your confirmation.
-
Notable Pay-at-Closing – Submit the Notable form promptly and email a screenshot. Approvals are typically instant.
📧 All confirmations must be sent to: FIBHomeStagingDesigns@gmail.com
4. Card on File & Security
For all payment methods except Credit Card Pre-Authorization, we securely store your card on file to:
-
Hold your staging date
-
Cover any agreed-upon charges like rental extensions or damage fees
🔒 We may process a $1 test charge to verify your card. This is refunded automatically. No charges will be made without prior notification.
5. Refund & Cancellation Policy
We only collect full payment after plan approval. Here's how our refund policy works:
5.1 Standard Refunds
-
Partial Refund – Cancel 12+ days before staging to receive 50% back (if already paid).
The initial 50% deposit is non-refundable. -
No Refund – Cancellations made 11 days or less before staging or after setup are not eligible for refunds.
💡 Why? Staging involves advanced prep, reserved inventory, and dedicated crew time. Cancellations close to the staging date limit our ability to fill your spot.
5.2 Klarna Refunds
Klarna transactions follow our same refund schedule.
Refunds are subject to Klarna’s policies and can be initiated after we’ve received full payment and cancellation notice from you.
📌 You are responsible for managing your Klarna installment plan.
5.3 Notable Pay-at-Closing Refunds
Once approved and paid by Notable, this method is final and non-refundable.
We recommend reviewing Notable’s terms before applying.
📌 Please confirm directly with Notable regarding any eligibility for changes or cancellations.
6. Staging Design & Revisions
We have full discretion over all staging design decisions (furnishings, decor, layout) to best showcase your property. As this is a staging service, items may not be altered, removed, or added without our prior written consent.
-
Changes/Revisions:
-
Requests for changes require 48 hours' notice.
-
If approved, changes are billed at $125 per hour per stager (2-hour minimum), plus any additional rental or delivery fees.
-
We take before-and-after photos/videos for marketing, documentation, and inventory tracking.
-
7. Responsibility for Staging Items (Damage, Loss, Misuse)
While your home is beautifully staged, we ask that all furnishings and decor are treated with care. You're responsible for the full replacement value of any items that are damaged, lost, or stolen during the staging period—unless you're covered by our optional Staging Risk Management (SRM) policy.
7.1 Inventory Documentation
For everyone’s peace of mind, we take detailed photo and video documentation of all staged items at the time of installation. This helps ensure transparency, accurate inventory tracking, and smooth resolution if anything goes missing or is damaged.
7.2 Replacement Costs
If an item is lost or damaged and we don’t have a receipt on file, we’ll determine its value using the current fair market price of a comparable item from trusted retailers (like Wayfair or Amazon), or through a certified appraisal if needed. This is a standard industry practice to ensure fairness. The maximum replacement cost for any single item is capped at $3,450, and full documentation will be provided if an issue arises.
7.3 Care & Use Guidelines
-
Please don’t move or use any staged furniture, decor, or accessories—they’re designed to elevate the look, not for daily use.
-
Any unauthorized relocation, modification, or use may result in early contract termination and removal of our inventory without refund.
7.4 In Case of Theft or Vandalism
-
If anything is stolen or vandalized while staging is in place, a police report must be submitted within 24 hours.
-
If we need to restage, a fee of $125/hour per stager (2-hour minimum) will apply.
8. Your Property Insurance
You are responsible for ensuring you have adequate insurance coverage for your own property and belongings during the entire staging period.
9. Optional Staging Risk Management (SRM) Policy
For an additional $250, you can opt for our SRM policy. This covers up to $20,000 in inventory loss due to theft, fire, vandalism, or water damage for 60 days, subject to a $500 deductible.
10. Staging Removal (De-Staging) & Extensions
10.1 De-Staging Schedule:
-
A de-staging date is initially scheduled when you book.
-
We'll send a courtesy reminder (text/email) 14 days before this date. Please confirm your de-staging or extension request within 24-48 hours of this reminder. If we don't hear back, we will proceed with the pre-scheduled de-staging.
-
For early de-staging requests due to a sale or offer, 14 days' notice is required.
-
Urgent de-staging (requested with 6 days or less notice) will incur a $350 emergency fee.

-
If the property becomes unsafe (e.g., broken doors, structural damage, active leaks, security issues, squatters, police activity, mold, pests), we reserve the right to immediately remove all staging inventory.
-
We will notify you immediately and provide photos/details of any hazardous conditions.
10.3 Other Removal Triggers:
-
If you file for bankruptcy, we reserve the right to immediately reclaim all staging inventory.

If the property is removed from the market without notice, we reserve the right to de-stage with 7 days' notice.
10.4 Rental Extensions:
-
Staging fees are not prorated if the property sells early.
-
Rental extensions beyond the initial eight weeks require our approval. Payment for extensions must be received at least 5 days before the initially scheduled de-staging date.
11. Abandonment
If you fail to respond, communicate, or fulfill your obligations under this agreement for more than seven (7) days, we reserve the right to take appropriate action.

12. Property Access & Security
-
Continuous Access: You must provide continuous access to the property throughout the staging contract.

-
Access Issues:

If access is denied or obstructed, a $500 rescheduling/inconvenience fee will apply.
-
If staging inventory retrieval is prevented (e.g., lock changes, key removal), you will be charged the full staging estimate plus a 50% recovery fee.
-
13. Force Majeure & Health Safety
13.1 Unforeseen Events:
-
We are not liable for delays or disruptions caused by events beyond our control ("Force Majeure"). This includes natural disasters, extreme weather, fires, pandemics, strikes, government restrictions, cyberattacks, software failures, or internet outages.
-
If a Force Majeure event prevents scheduled staging, you may reschedule based on our availability. Refunds will not be issued in such cases.

We follow safety protocols to minimize risks related to COVID-19 and other infectious diseases.

All staging concepts, designs, and photographs remain our exclusive property.

We may place small, tasteful marketing materials (e.g., framed signs, business cards) at the property while staging is in place.
-
You grant us permission to photograph and film staged areas for our marketing, portfolio, and reference purposes. All photos, videos, and related materials remain our exclusive property. By agreeing, you waive any claims related to their use, distribution, or publication.

-
All pricing, processes, and business information shared in this agreement and your Proposal are confidential and may not be disclosed to third parties without our prior consent.

-
Before taking any formal steps, both parties agree to try to resolve any issue through direct communication—whether by phone, email, or written message. If we can’t resolve it within 21 days, either party may move forward with arbitration.
-
Private Arbitration (Not Court) If needed, any unresolved dispute will be handled through private, binding arbitration (instead of going to court). This will take place in San Joaquin County, California, and follow the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA). A neutral third-party arbitrator will help sort things out fairly.

The arbitrator can only award actual damages, and neither party will be entitled to consequential, incidental, or punitive damages. Our total liability remains limited to 1.8 times the total fees you paid as stated above.

-
You and the homeowner agree to release and hold us (and our employees, agents, etc.) harmless from any claims, damages, or expenses related to property access or our services. This includes property damage, personal injury, and third-party claims.

We are responsible for damages we cause during staging or de-staging. However, we are not liable for damages that occur once the property is listed for sale, under contract, or during property showings.
-
Pre- and post-staging video walkthroughs and photos will document the property and inventory condition.
16. Independent Contractor
FIB Home Staging & Interior Design operates as an independent contractor. This agreement does not create an employment relationship, partnership, or joint venture between us.
17. No Guarantees
While staging enhances visual appeal and marketability, we do not guarantee the sale, speed of sale, or final price of your property. The outcome is influenced by factors beyond our control (e.g., pricing, market conditions, buyer demand). No verbal or written statements should be interpreted as a guarantee of results.

-
Do you offer virtual staging?No, we specialize in tangible, in-person staging for vacant properties. While virtual staging can help with visualization, we believe that real, professionally staged spaces create a stronger, more lasting impact on potential buyers.
-
How is your approach different from virtual staging?Our approach involves physically staging the property with real furniture and décor, creating an inviting atmosphere that buyers can experience firsthand. This method helps buyers connect emotionally with the home and see its true potential.
-
If you offer 3D rendering for design and redesign, why not provide virtual staging?While we offer 3D rendering and e-design services for interior design and redesign projects, physical staging is a different experience. Our 3D renderings help you visualize future design changes, but staging a home—especially a vacant one—benefits from real furniture and décor. This tangible presence helps buyers connect with the space on a deeper level, something virtual staging can’t fully replicate.
-
How do 3D renderings differ from virtual staging?3D renderings are primarily for envisioning future design changes and redesign services. They provide a visual blueprint of what a finished space could look like. In contrast, physical staging involves setting up actual furnishings that buyers can experience in person, creating a more immediate and impactful emotional connection.
-
What if I prefer virtual staging, or what are my options if I live outside your service area?We understand that virtual staging can be a more budget-friendly option and is often chosen for its convenience. However, while virtual staging can enhance listing photos, it doesn’t provide the immersive experience of walking through a beautifully staged home. If you live outside our service area but are still interested in physical staging, we recommend reaching out to a RESA-accredited professional in your region to achieve the full benefits of a professionally staged home.
-
Wondering about vacant versus occupied staging? Let's clarify.Vacant Homes: If your property is currently empty, our vacant staging service will furnish and style the space to help buyers envision its potential. Occupied Homes: If you're still living in the property, our occupied staging service will strategically utilize your existing furniture and decor to maximize its appeal and create a welcoming atmosphere for showings.
-
Do you work with real estate agents, flippers, or investors?Absolutely! We regularly collaborate with real estate agents, investors, and flippers to stage properties that stand out and attract serious buyers. Whether it’s preparing a home for sale, highlighting its best features, or enhancing its marketability, our goal is to elevate your property's appeal and support your marketing efforts—ensuring it makes the right impression and stands out in a competitive market. We understand the importance of maximizing ROI, and we’re here to help you create an environment that attracts top offers, quickly and effectively.
-
How do I know if staging is right for me?If you’re thinking about staging, you’re already ahead. You understand that selling a home isn’t just about putting it on the market—it’s about presenting it with intention. Staging is a smart, strategic step that not only supports a faster sale and stronger return, but also makes the entire process easier for both buyers and sellers. At FIB Home Staging & Interior Design, we recognize that your home is likely one of your biggest investments. That’s why we take a thoughtful, tailored approach to every space—whether it’s vacant or occupied. We focus on highlighting what makes your property special, while aligning it with what today’s buyers are truly looking for. Unlike virtual staging—which, although helpful for online listings, is limited to photos—physical staging creates a real, tangible experience. It transforms how your home feels the moment someone walks through the door. That physical connection helps buyers envision themselves living in the space, forming an emotional bond that often leads to stronger, faster offers. We don’t just style rooms—we craft a sense of home that resonates. If your goal is to stand out, inspire serious interest, and move through the selling process with clarity and confidence, our staging services provide the strategic edge you’ve been looking for.

How far in advance should I book my staging appointment?As soon as you know you'll need staging, it's a great time to reach out! We recommend booking at least three weeks in advance for the best chance of securing your ideal timeframe and giving us space to plan thoughtfully for your property. While we do our best to accommodate quicker turnarounds, our calendar fills up fast—especially within that final two-week window. And because staging involves coordination and prep, we require at least 8 days’ notice ahead of your target staging day. The earlier you complete our staging quote form, the better we can tailor things to your timeline and ensure everything flows smoothly. We’re here to make it work for you!
-

-
What is your process for staging a property?While we’re currently developing a seamless booking system to make things even more efficient, here’s how our process works at the moment: Submit Your Staging Quote Request – Start by filling out our staging quote form. Within 24 to 48 hours of submission, you’ll receive an initial quote. Property Preview & Assessment – If the quote feels like a good fit, we’ll schedule a property preview to assess the space and confirm staging details. Pro Tip: For quicker turnaround and quote confirmation, providing access—such as a contractor lockbox—can help speed things up. Proposal & Agreement – After the preview, we’ll send over a detailed proposal. Once approved, just sign the agreement and submit payment to secure your booking. Staging Day – On your scheduled date, we’ll handle everything to stage the property and bring out its full potential. We’re always working to refine and simplify our process. Our goal is to make staging smooth, efficient, and tailored to you—from start to finish.
-
What’s the difference between a staging consultation and a property preview walkthrough?We offer two services to help you get started: Staging Consultation ($150): This is a detailed, in-person visit where we provide expert advice on how to prepare your property—everything from paint colors to flooring and other design elements that can enhance appeal. Staging Quote (Property Preview Walkthrough) – Complimentary: This is a quick, no-cost visit to assess the space for staging. We typically access the property via a contractor lockbox, take photos and video references, and use those to confirm your initial quote. It’s short, efficient, and designed to align on the best staging approach. We’re happy to help you decide which option best suits your situation.
-
Do you offer staging for high-end homes?Yes, we do! We understand the unique appeal of high-end homes and offer tailored staging packages to match. Our goal is to enhance the inherent luxury of your property, attract the right clientele, and ultimately drive successful sales

How long does it take to complete a staging?Staging typically takes 1–3 days, depending on the size of the property and the scope of the work. For vacant staging, we usually schedule a two-day window. Most of the work is completed on the first day, but the extra time allows us to fine-tune the details and ensure everything is just right. For occupied staging, the process is usually completed within a single day. Our goal is to keep things efficient while making sure your property is styled to its full potential.
-
What if I have pets or young children during staging?We get it—juggling staging with little ones or pets at home can feel like a lot. As parents and pet owners ourselves, we completely understand the need for extra consideration. We offer thoughtful options to help make the process as safe and convenient as possible for everyone in your household. Whether it’s recommending temporary adjustments or suggesting family-friendly staging timelines, we’ll help you navigate it all with care.
-
Do I need to leave the house during the staging process?For vacant staging, we require the property to be unoccupied during the two-day staging window. This helps our team work efficiently and ensures the setup is completed smoothly without interruptions. For occupied staging, leaving the house is not mandatory, but many clients find it easier and more comfortable to step out—especially for our full-service occupied staging. We understand that every situation is different, so if you prefer to stay home, we’re happy to accommodate by having you stay in a separate area, like the backyard, garage (if there’s a lounge area), or a room farther from the work area. This keeps the main living spaces clear for staging, making the process faster, more effective, and more convenient for you.
-
Do you offer any guarantees for your staging services?While we don’t guarantee a specific sale price or timeline—since the final outcome depends on several factors beyond staging alone—we can confidently say our approach is rooted in strategy and results. Our staging isn’t just about making a space look nice. It’s built on a deep understanding of buyer psychology and current market trends. We create environments that help potential buyers emotionally connect with the home, which is often what turns interest into serious offers. Although outcomes vary, about 90% of the homes we’ve staged receive offers or showing requests shortly after going live. When a property is priced well, has good bones, and is supported by a strong listing agent and marketing plan, our staging often becomes the difference-maker that tips the scale in your favor.
-
What happens if my home sells quickly? Can I get a credit back on my staging fee?If your home sells quickly, it means we’ve done our job in positioning your property for maximum appeal! While we’re thrilled to see the results of our work, our staging fees are based on the services provided and are not refundable, regardless of the timeline. However, a quick sale is always the ultimate goal, and we're here to help ensure your home is showcased in the best possible light to attract the right buyers fast.
-
Do you bring in all the furniture and decor, or do I need to supply anything?We bring in all furniture, decor, and accessories to create a cohesive, inviting look that enhances the property.
-
How do I prepare my vacant property for staging?To ensure a smooth staging process, we ask that you have the property cleaned and free of any debris, especially in areas like the driveway if construction is ongoing. This ensures that our team can begin working efficiently and avoid any delays. Please make sure that no one is present at the property during the scheduled staging time, as it allows our team to work without interruptions. We don’t want to charge additional fees for rescheduling, so having everything prepped and ready on the scheduled day is important. Once the property is prepped, we’ll handle the rest—furnishing, decorating, and styling to make your home stand out!
-
Do you stage all rooms or just certain areas?We focus on staging the gathering areas and key spaces that make the biggest impact—like the living room, dining room, kitchen, and primary bedroom. These are the areas where buyers tend to spend the most time, so they need to shine! We may also stage additional rooms depending on your home’s layout and market trends. While these are the core areas we stage, we're always open to enhancing other spaces—whether it's a laundry room, bathroom, home office, or any unique feature that adds value. You can also request additional rooms to be staged. Our goal is to make sure every room works together, creating a harmonious, welcoming environment that captures potential buyers’ attention!
-
What is occupied home staging?Occupied home staging enhances your space by rearranging and adding decor to complement your existing furniture and make the home more buyer-friendly.
-
How do you stage an occupied home with my existing furniture?Depending on the level of service, we’ll optimize your current furniture layout, add key decor items, and make thoughtful adjustments to highlight the home’s best features. Our goal is to make your space feel more cohesive, appealing, and move-in ready for potential buyers—using your existing pieces as the foundation!
-
Do I need to remove any furniture or decor for occupied staging?We’ll carefully assess your space and provide personalized guidance on what to remove or rearrange to maximize its potential. Our goal is to create a balanced, open environment that highlights your home’s best features, so we’ll suggest removing any items that might clutter or distract from the overall appeal. With our help, we’ll make sure everything works together to create a welcoming, buyer-friendly atmosphere!
-
What if my furniture doesn’t fit the space as well as it could?We’ll rearrange your furniture or add select decor to enhance the flow and maximize the space, ensuring it appeals to buyers.
