Tax Deductible

Did you know you can deduct the cost of staging from your capital gains? The IRS' position is that staging costs are a legitimate selling expense for both primary and secondary homes and are therefore tax deductible.

About Us

Experienced and Creative Home Stagers

Hi! Michele and Elizabeth here! We are the faces (and brains and strong backs) behind Curated Columbia. We are certified home stagers with backgrounds in design, retail merchandising and real estate. It's our education and combined backgrounds that help us understand what drives buyers and how to set your home apart from the competition. Understanding the mindset of buyers for your specific home is a key part of our design plan and how we tell the story of your home. This design story resonates into great offers for our clients. When we aren't busy staging homes you can find us at Soda City Market on Saturday mornings or grabbing coffee at one of our many local coffee shops.
