Sensational Home Staging & Design

I have been working with Kathy for several years and consider her an integral member of our team. Her vision for transforming a room is brilliant. I am always confident that when Kathy is done staging, my properties will photograph beautifully, sell quickly and for top value...all of which is exactly what my clients want and need. Kathy is a true professional.

Kathy Burke is a pro. Kathy brings not only good design skills, but a keen business sense that few others have. She can advise and consult - offering alternatives to traditional staging assignments without compromise to quality work . She is direct, keeps her commitments and appreciates both budgets and deadlines . Whether dealing directly with the seller or the real estate agent she is "sensational".

Kathy Burke is simply amazing, As a residential real estate broker & professional, I have been working with Sensational Home Staging & Design for many years now. Kathy has helped me get many homes sold for top dollar in the San Ramon Valley area. She is typically involved from day 1 when I'm listing a home for sale. Her initial home consultation sets the stage for an extremely detailed, planned out & organized process. She consistently delivers on time and her finished product is always amazing. Additionally, Kathy does much more than professional home staging. She assists in the over all design and all the important decisions on potential or desired home improvements prior to staging. This includes lighting, paint colors, kitchen & baths, yards and much more! Kathy will continue to be a go to for me in 2019 and beyond.

Kathy is an amazing home stager. I am a Realtor and Kathy is the best. I always get great results when Kathy stages my listings. She and I discuss wall colors, flooring, carpeting and lighting. All of this ties in to the style of home we are selling, and what we think will appeal most to the buyers of these homes. From there, Kathy does her magic, and brings in the perfect pieces of furniture and decor. She even matches the furniture to area rugs and lamps. Kathy transforms an empty house into a beautiful home. Kathy is an excellent communicator, and is very reliable. When Kathy makes a commitment, I can count on it to be done, and done to perfection.

Kathy is the best in the business! She is a true pro! I have used Kathy several times over the year, and will continue too!

Kathy is an exceptional stager. If you want to sell your home for the best price obtainable, Kathy is "the" go-to stager. Hands down, every one of my clients who executes Kathy's recommendations sells strong and immediate. Be ready to detach and remember it's not about what you like-- it's about what buyers like-- and it's about what 'sells'. Consider Kathy your partner in profit. I most certainly do!

I cannot rave enough about Kathy and her "sensational" design services! I contacted Kathy in a desperate pinch to makeover a guest room that had been taken over by my college age son as I was expecting house guests in three weeks time. I needed help and I needed it fast! Kathy didn't bat an eye about the timeline and was willing to work within my budget to create something that would reflect my own color and style preferences while incorporating an updated design aesthetic. The room has now become a welcome retreat for our house guests and is one of my favorite rooms in the house thanks to those special features and touches I would never have considered were it not for Kathy. She has an incredible eye and her recommendations are absolutely spot on. I've enjoyed working with her so much that the initial one-room project quickly morphed into a full home makeover and she is helping me transform and fall in love with my house all over again. Kathy's approach is as hands-on or hands-off as you want or need it to be and she has access to a host of vendors, contractors, artisans and other specialists many of whom I've had the pleasure of working with. I've referred her to several other friends who are in various stages of design/decor updates and would not hesitate for one moment to recommend Kathy or Sensational Home Staging for any type of staging or design project.

I have worked with Kathy Burke of Sensational Home Staging for years now and she never ceases to amaze me with her professionalism, creativity and ability to work so well with clients. She always seems to have the vision to approach situations in multiple ways and execute the design plan to the liking of all. Just sold another home staged by Kathy, in just 4 days and way over asking! I would and do recommend her often!

I've known Kathy Burke for over two years since we are colleagues in the same industry and belong to the same professional association. I've observed her work first-hand and recognize that she is one of the best. Kathy was awarded "2012 Best Occupied Staging Company in the USA" by the Real Estate Staging Association (RESA) and if you look at her photos you'll see why. Kathy provides her clients in the East Bay area with a varied menu of home staging and design services. Her decorating talent can make any home look chic and stylish.
