As a pioneer in virtual staging, Virtually Staging Properties knows how important it is to stay in tune with technology and it’s benefits. Here is our list of 5 must-have mobile apps for home decorating and home staging.

  1. View my Room in 3D: The View my room in 3D feature of the Houzz app lets you shop for furniture the digital way. Using a photo of your room, you can choose from over 300,000 items found in the Houzz Shop and preview what they will look like in your home.
  2. Color Capture: Benjamin Moore’s color capture app is a unique, innovative way to pick the perfect color paint. Inspired by nature? Take a photo of your source of inspiration – flowers, greenery, the sky, an item – and the app will match the color as closely as possible to one of their many paint options.
  3. iHandy: Whether you are decorating or staging, you know how important it is to hang artwork evenly, level, and centered. Take the guesswork out of wall decor with the iHandy app. The iHandy app includes five tools in one easy app that literally fits in the palm of your hand.
  4. Photo Measures: Instead of writing down measurements or drawing out a rough sketch, use the Photo Measures app to draw dimensions right onto a photo of the room you are decorating or staging.
  5. Artfully Walls: One of the hottest trends in decorating is art gallery walls. With the Artfully Walls app, you can use the “Try On Wall” to preview how a gallery wall will look on your wall using a photo of the wall. You can then arrange or rearrange the virtual gallery until you get it just right without putting holes in the walls first.

What Our Clients Say

“After posting the virtually staged photos I saw an increase in showings and we got my vacant listing under contract in less than 14 days! “

PAUL HERRICK, Realtor | Keller Williams Realty – Massachusetts

“The unfurnished townhome we had listed had been on the market for 4 months until we decided to engage in virtual staging.  I had the townhome professionally photographed and then had the photos virtually staged and they were so realistic.  We had a binding contract within 2 weeks after posting the virtual photos!”

ERIC BROOKS, Realtor | Wydler Brooks Real Estate – Virginia

“My vacant property listing sat for about 3 weeks on the market and after posting the virtual photos by Virtually Staging Properties, I saw a 50% increase in buyer traffic and we got an offer just 1 day later.  The buyer’s agent thought virtual staging was a great idea and was going to consider using it for their vacant listings.”

TARIQ THOMAS, Agent | Thomas Holding Group – Pennsylvania

“Virtually Staging Properties offers a phenomenal service!  I have listings that have little to no furnishings and need to be brought to life and VSP does just that.  My clients love the product and my virtual photos get wonderful internet exposure.  I have sold every virtually staged home by VSP faster and will recommend the service to my Realtor colleagues.  Thank You!!”
