Hassle-free furnishing solution

 

Selling or letting, Lis Altman finds the answer

 

 

 

GEORGIA BEDDING spotted a gap in the market when she started to develop properties.

The gap was for a company which could provide a full “staging” service.

Georgia found she had to buy all the furniture and accessories herself – and then she was left with them when the property was sold or rented.

“It was a huge hassle and a huge expense,” she said.

So in 2005, in partnership with Alison Morrill, she set up Rossclare Interiors to offer “a bespoke and cost-conscious solution to clients’ furnishing needs”.

The company offers a wide range of services, from home staging – which is about making your home look as appealing as possible to potential buyers – to furnishing packages for buy-to-let owners and project management of property renovations.

“It’s especially important in today’s competitive market to make sure your property looks the best it possibly can,” said Alison. “There’s no doubt that a staged property appeals more than an empty one.

“It’s difficult to judge the size of an empty space, and viewers worry if their furniture will fit. Staging is about giving people the correct perception of space.”

 

 

Most of Rossclare’s furniture is sourced from privately-owned Scottish companies. The target market determines the style and price range (Rossclare provides a detailed breakdown of costs.)

Furniture is hired for a minimum of a month, and then on a weekly basis.
