Our Home Staging Services in Miami
Showhomes offers staging, short-term rental styling, interior design services, and e-design for your home. Our home staging services in Coral Gables and Miami help you make the most of your home.
The majority of the homes we stage and style are for sale. However, we also work with homeowners who intend to rent or remain in their homes. The goal, no matter what you intend to do, is to create a welcoming living space that’s appealing to potential buyers or anyone else in your home.
If you’re considering listing your home, it’s essential you make it as marketable as possible.
Home staging services in Coral Gables can help.
Post-pandemic, Miami is now one of the most desired cities to live in. In 2021, the city broke its record for most homes sold with $30.3 billion in sales. This is a 103.4 percent annual increase in sales.
The median price of a Miami home has increased 20 percent and home rentals have almost doubled. This increase in the average purchase price is pushing more people towards renting. This means rental properties are the most viable investment strategy.
On the other hand, investors, contractors, and developers are also capitalizing on their investments due to lower borrowing costs, lower risk of vacancies, cash flow potential, and historically high home values. These investors are using Showhomes to get top dollar for their remodeled properties.

Marisa and her team are totally AWESOME! We got endless compliments and sold the home immediately for WAYYYY over asking! I then rehired her to stage another home I was listing. Again, her staging efforts produced multiple offers immediately upon the home going on the market. It also wound up selling over asking.
She has made me a believer!!

Marisa and her team did an excellent job staging my mother’s home for sale. Everything was done in a professional manner and the results were over-the-top! We received 12 offers and sold for 20% over asking price and I know the staging from Show Homes played a huge part in that success. We will be using them again!

Wonderful experience. Had our home empty and listened for four months but no firm offers. Had home staged by Showhomes Home Services and offer by a couple who saw house immediately after staging. Home is sold!!! A beautiful staging with gorgeous furniture, art work, patio decor and exquisite details. Could not be more satisfied. Strongly recommend for all.

The Showhomes team consistently over delivers on what any other stager does in the industry. Selling luxury real estate in Miami for nearly eighteen years, I’ve had the opportunity to try many other companies. But none comes close. And to think that they also charge less than their competition is mind blowing. Your only call to a staging company whether it’s $200,000 home or a $20,000,000 mansion should be ShowHomes Coral Gables. You will be so glad you did!

I wasn’t sure what to expect. But i was so surprised to see what they had done. This seemingly plain house was transformed into a fresh, airy, modern looking home. It was perfect! In fact it was sold within a week. And i know that part of that was due to the furnishing.
Thank you so much for your hard work in showcasing my home.

We had a couple of empty rooms when we wanted to sell our house. Marisa took her time to really look at our home and see our style. She was super nice to work with. The furnishings she selected complimented our style perfectly. After getting our listing on-line we had an offer on the second day!! I have no doubt we could not have done it without Showhomes.

As soon as my Realtor listed my house for sale she recommended your Company to best show the house with modern, appealing furniture, so we gave away our old stuff and the house now looked beautiful, I honestly believe that if we had not contracted your services perhaps the house would still be in the market.

frequently asked questions
- What is home staging?When a home is "staged", it's furnished and decorated in a way that's carefully designed to maximize the home's appeal to prospective buyers.
- What benefits does home staging offer to a Homeowner?A properly staged home has just the right quality and quantity of furnishings for a buyer to understand how rooms function and how spaces flow. Staging creates warmth, life, and positive emotion. Good staging avoids clutter or overly personalized decor that might be a turn-off to some. It maximizes the home's strengths while minimizing any shortcomings. Staging engages prospective buyers, increases their interest and perception of value. A prospective buyer becomes more likely to buy!
- Do you provide staging services for owner-occupied homes?Yes, we are a full service staging organization and can provide help for homes that are occupied either for sale or for those who just want to update the look of their property.
- What is a Home Manager?A Home Manager is an individual or family who assists Showhomes by living in a Showhome and caring for it while it's on the market. Showhomes painstakingly selects and trains each Home Manager in accordance with the system we've developed through three decades of experience.
- Why would I use a Home Manager to help sell my home?A Home Manager benefits the Homeowner by caring for the home and reducing the Homeowner's carrying costs. Some examples of carrying costs that a Home Manager would cover would be utilities, gas, water, and the ability to take advantage of the savings of our national insurance program. The Home Manager helps in the sales effort by readying the house for showings and through the added life and emotional appeal their belongings contribute. Homes staged with live-in Home Managers typically out-perform vacant homes by large margins.
- Is a Home Manager present during showings?No, Home Managers are not present during showings. Prospective buyers won't know that your home is even staged; it will simply look and feel like a homeowner lives in and loves the home. Everything is in its place and your home shows as well or better than it would if you still lived there.
- How is Showhomes different from others who offer staging services?Life sells homes. Buying a home is an emotional decision for most people and Showhomes is unique in the way it helps to sell homes. Using a live in Home Manager assures you that the entire home is staged to perfection and that it is always tuned up and in show-to-sell condition. Because of this, your home is far less vulnerable to low-ball offers than it would be if it were simply staged with furniture.
- Does Showhomes act as a Realtor?No. Showhomes provides staging services that make your home far more attractive to prospective buyers. Almost all Showhomes are listed by full-service Realtors. Showhomes does not represent buyers or sellers in the real estate transaction; that is the service your Realtor is trained and licensed to provide.
- Does Showhomes offer staging services without Home Managers?Yes. If you are interested in staging services without a Home Manager contact your local office. Pricing varies by location.
- Is smoking allowed in a Showhome?No. Our promise to homeowners is a smoke free home that appeals to the largest percentage of prospective buyers.
- What happens when a Showhome sells?As soon as you accept an offer, we begin the process of relocating our Home Manager. Unlike a tenant, our Home Managers are under contract to move on short notice and once we succeed in selling your home, we are often ready to begin staging another home. We return your home to you in as good or even better condition than when we received it and the new buyers get a fresh, clean home to move into.
- What are the benefits of being a Home Manager?Flexibility, low housing costs, short or long-term housing solution, no long term committment.
- Who provides the furnishings for a Showhome?A critical requirement of Home Managers is that they have an inventory of fine furniture and accessories that meets our quality standards that they move from house to house. Showhomes supplements furniture as needed for each home.
- How can I find out about becoming a Home Manager?Visit the Home Manager section of our website or click on "Locations" to talk to your local representative.
- How can I learn more about your services to Homeowners?Click on the locations page to contact your local representative for a free consultation.
- How do Showhomes services benefit a Realtor?Showhomes helps homeowners and their Realtors sell vacant homes faster and for higher prices. In today's market, staging a home with a live-in Home Manager can steeply reduce the amount of time the home sits on the market and bring in offers far above what a homeowner would get if the home remained vacant. For a Realtor, this means less hassle, faster sale, higher commission and a happier homeowner.
- Is there any cost to the Realtor?No. Showhomes is free to Realtors.
- How can I learn more about your services to Realtors?Click on the locations page to contact your local representative for a free consultation.
- How are home showings arranged?Realtors who use us often comment that Showhomes are the easiest to show; often they are easier to show than owner-occupied homes. All Showhomes are available to show by appointment. Simply call the local Showhomes contact and make the showing appointment and we'll ensure that the home is available to show.
