Before and after with staging

March often ushers in an eager pool of buyers, making it an opportune time to list. We’ll stage your home using your own furnishings to craft an inviting atmosphere that highlights its best features. Staging with your furnishings not only saves costs but also adds a warm, lived-in feel that buyers love. If this is not an option then professional staging is available.


With strategic marketing and the robust online presence of Eaststreet.properties and Compass, your listing will be poised to capture the market's attention. From professional photography to compelling listing descriptions, social media marketing and much more, we'll ensure your home tells its unique story.
