ABOUT THE FACULTY & BEAUTIFUL STAGED HOMES
As accomplished, certified home stagers, Beautiful Staged Homes views homes objectively - with "buyers" eyes. The company benefitted from the rigorous training of Barb Schwarz (who started the staging industry over 35 years ago) of StagedHomes.com. Experienced in using time-tested, cost-effective techniques that have worked on a national level, Linda Leyble and her team have staged many homes on Long Island - most of these sold in less than a week. In addition, as trained decorative painters, the company can magically transform dated countertops or cabinetry into designer showpieces - for a fraction of the cost of demolishing and buying new. Linda's decorative painting company (www.studio ofdecorativearts.com) was awarded the "Best of Long Island 2008" award - and has been nominated again for 2010 by the readers of the Long Island Press.
Marty Wiesehahn: Aside from a 35 year career as a decorative painter/artist, Marty also owned and operated a successful real estate “virtual tours” company. Marty’s decorative work has also been seen in many Designer Showhouses in New York. He worked with many interior designers during his long career – and was designer Claudia Dowling’s decorative artist for over 32 years.
Linda and Marty recently designed a room for the Designer Showhouse at Caumsett State Park this past summer. The room was wonderfully received. After the experience of doing this - we can honestly say that there's a huge similarity between designing a showhouse and staging a home for sale. Presentation is everything!
