“We were absolutely thrilled with Staged Ryte! We are firmly convinced our house sold so quickly (6th couple that saw it) because of the wonderful look and feel Staged Ryte brought into the house. We had never moved in and we were at a loss of what to do. They were totally professional and flexible and the new owners are also now using Staged Ryte to help decorate. I highly recommend them!” - Homeowner Client

“I can’t speak highly enough of Dawn Trachtenberg and her team at Staged Ryte. Working with us on our budget, they managed to make our own home feel unified and charming in a way that expressed our own sense of aesthetics; then they did a start-to-finish renovation and decoration of a rental property, with Ms Trachtenberg expressing the exact vision I had tried to describe! She selected every detail down to paint and cutlery and lighting, and we could not be happier. Our guests feel inspired in the space. She worked miracles on a budget on this project as well, managing to create an elegant, artistic and unified home and event space. All with thorough professionalism, great communication, and on time! A gem.” - Naomi Wolf, Homeowner

“Staged Ryte was a critical component to the selling my house in such a short period of time. They staged the place beautifully, with excellent choices from the colors to the pieces of furniture. If the opportunity ever comes up to work with a staging company, I will both recommend them and work with them again!” - Homeowner

“Dawn and her team did a wonderful job. In fact, the staging looked even better in person than the professional photos (which were also fantastic). We had several offers above asking price within a few days of hitting the market. What more can you ask for?!?!” - Alan O'Doherty Sotheby's International Realty www.alanodoherty.com

“I did research, saw Staged Ryte’s positive reviews, and their professional approach. Dawn’s eye for design and large inventory helps to put homes in their best light. We’ve closed on houses because of what she created. She knows her audience. It’s like smoke comes out of her ears when she’s assessing a house. She doesn’t settle on a design until it’s perfect. We work collaboratively together so we’re all part of the same team.” - Elyse Harney Morris, Elyse Harney Real Estate

“Thank you for the beautiful way you staged our family home. You clearly had the magic touch! Within one week, we had an offer and have just completed the inspection contingency period with that buyer. It has been a whirlwind! We are grateful to you and your team for all of your creativity and hard work.” - Deborah and Diana, Homeowners

“Our wonderful but quirky house didn’t sell. Our Realtor called Dawn in for a consult and she was terrific right from the get go. We took her advice about what to clear out and then she and her crew came in and moved some of our things around, added furniture and accessories from Staged Ryte and we got over asking after a near bidding war. Plus, Dawn was a joy and so was her team. 10 out of 10.” Katherine Tighe - Homeowner

“I am 100% certain that we would not have gotten the fabulous Beachwood cottage sold as quickly if not for the keen eye and professional attention to each and every detail that Staged Ryte brought to this recently renovated project. They did a super job of creating warm and inviting living spaces while showing how this 884 sq. ft cottage could easily accommodate a gathering of friends and family. Beautiful color palettes befitting a lake cottage. Full price offer on the first day!” Lori Rose, Stonehouse Properties

“Grateful for their communication, style, design work & ability to transform a space beautifully! Looking forward to recommending & working with Dawn & her team in the near future!” Laiken Rapisarda, Home Sweet Home Real Estate

"I highly recommend Nancy and Dawn at Staged Ryte! Working under a very short timeline they transformed an almost empty space to a beautiful, stylish home. Every person who came to see our listing commented on the furniture. Some even asked if they could buy it! (Which Staged Ryte offers as well.) These ladies can work in a variety of styles and will make your property look stylish not sterile. Much attention was paid to the details. They staged with fresh fruit & flowers, but my favorite touch was the hand-painted abstract artwork!" Anna Kolberg, Corcoran, NYC

"Staged Ryte did yet another awesome job staging one of my new listings. They use modern high end furniture and accessories and had the home looking impeccable. 16 showings and four offers on the first day, they’re the only way to go to help sell your home. Not only are they professional in everything they do, but gracious and always open to your suggestions, loved working with these ladies and I will again.” Fin Hanley, Berkshire Property Agents

"I believe the staging done by Dawn and her team contributed to the success of my home’s only open house which garnered 20 appointments and 10 offers including the one I took - 58K above list price. My home is a colonial reproduction with many beautiful and unique architectural details, so my realtor and I worked with Dawn to achieve a “less is more” staging approach. Dawn brought her vision to my home and then graciously took the feedback I offered to pare down the scale and number of pieces she put in the house in combination with a curated collection of my antiques. The finished product was quite lovely and allowed the house’s features and setting to shine through. Dawn excelled at empathetic and careful communication during the process. Thank you, Staged Ryte!" Home Owner

“Compassionate professionalism. Everything from conception through completion was clearly communicated and efficiently executed. Even while working tirelessly to meet (sometimes unrealistic) schedules everyone from the Staged Ryte team was respectful and compassionate to all involved. The transformation of our home after being staged for sale was nothing less than spectacular. Very artistic and creative, it truly feels like you are being walked through the home as if were made for you.” Stephen Mader

"We were very impressed with the courteous service, the attentiveness to detail, and the quality of the furnishings provided to stage our property. All your work resulted in a full price offer for the property within literally minutes after it was posted by our broker on the internet." Dennis Lynch

"Transformation extraordinaire! I have been working in real estate for about 16 years. Until recently, I had not thought too much about staging...what a mistake. Last year, I had a nice listing priced in the 5's. This property was located in a very good neighborhood on a private road. I supported this listing every month with ads in various mags and newspapers. After three price reductions, and as winter approached, my client decided to rent until the Spring Market. When the lease ended, and having seen a number of homes staged by Staged Ryte, I convinced my client to increase the price by $30,000. Staged Ryte came in and staged two of the four bedrooms, the living room, the dining room, the family room, the kitchen, and the deck. What a difference! Every room had impact. The new photos were outstanding. I began to get showing requests within minutes of the listing going live. So, there is a saying, "the proof is in the pudding." Here is the proof of Staged Ryte's talents: first showing = full price offer! Closed in 30 days." - George M. Cain, Realtor

“Dawn and Nancy were wonderful - the staging was very creative and contributed to the successful sale of the apartment I listed. The presentation and arranging of furniture really highlighted the positive aspects of the apartment and the quality and design of the furniture and accessories was superb. I would highly recommend them and look forward to working with them again.” - Tami Wasserman, Broker

“Staged Ryte is the way to go if you want to sell your home fast . The exceptional finishing touches to their staging is irresistible for buyers. Sellers who were hesitant to spend the extra money on staging were thrilled when their house went under contact right away. The last 3 properties that Dawn and Nancy staged went under contract the very first day and this is in a market were the average property sale takes 12 months. They always nail the style furniture to the client and style of house in such a quick time. It's a real pleasure to work with them.”  - Christian Deckert, Broker

"Sold! The words that every broker, seller and buyer want to hear. Within two weeks of staging by Staged Ryte the house sold. The house was on the market for 3 months before being staged. Dawn and Nancy of Staged Ryte transformed every corner of the house, giving it the  feeling that the house was lived in and loved. The attention to detail was incredible down to the keys by the door to the nail polish in the “girls” room. Their ability to create an atmosphere that appeals to buyers made all the difference. Each room was designed with an eye towards style and usability, one that made you want to move right in. Real furniture, real attention to detail and real imagination sets Dawn and Nancy apart. Having Staged Ryte in our area will help the selling process and I will not hesitate to recommend them to my clients.  Staged Ryte made SOLD happen!" - Mary White, Barnbrook Realty

"Staged Ryte created a clean, fresh mid-century design for our newly renovated second home. Dawn and Nancy collaborate to produce a decor that catches the eye and invites people "home." We love the clean, uncluttered look. Apparently, so do a lot of other people since we have able to attract a steady short term rental market off season. Staged Ryte's creativity has not only produced a comfortable home for us but also a secondary source of income." - Doris Kroll, Second home/Rental Property Owner

"Dawn and Nancy were a complete pleasure to work with right from the first phone call. They have such genuine passion for what they do and it shows in the results. They really went above and beyond and are true profectionists; every least detail was attended to. We were not only thrilled with the way the house looked, but the energy they brought to the project was that of a true partner, with a sincere mission to help us market and sell our home. In terms of design, they were able to create a look that was in keeping with the character of the house itself ands also on trend, but most importantly felt warm and welcoming. I would work with Staged Ryte again in a heartbeat and will recommend them to anyone I know trying to sell their home!" - Abby Burke, Homeowner/Seller

"Thank you Staged Ryte! After only a week staged, our house went under deposit and has since closed. We definitely believe the staging was extremely beneficial in allowing buyers to envision the potentials of the house, and was the reason the house went under deposit so quickly. We would highly recommend their services!” - Candace, Homeowner/Seller

"I can definitely attest to the impact of Staged Ryte's services! A few months ago I brought buyers to a small home in Great Barrington. Walking through the unfurnished house, the couple seemed to have a real challenge imagining themselves in the space. They questioned if their bed would fit in the bedroom and how to lay out their living room furniture. Small imperfections stood out to them. They decided to pass on the house." 

A month later I brought a second couple to the home. It had been newly staged by Staged Ryte. Wow, their reaction couldn't have been more different! They immediately found the home warm and inviting.They could easily visualize their belongings in the space, and more importantly, they could visualize the lifestyle they would enjoy there. They bought the house!"  - Vashti Poor, Lance Vermeulen Real Estate

"Dawn & Nancy have a phenomenal eye. I have used them now for several of my listed properties and the results are amazing. The houses sell quickly and the feedback is overwhelmingly responsive. The quality of furniture, creativity and design will far surpass your expectations. As a real estate agent I strongly advise you to hire these ladies for a listing because it will sell your house quickly. Home owners, make the investment. A Staged Ryte house, is a house that sells."   - Elle Villetto, William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty

"I would just like to say what a pleasure it has been to work with Staged Ryte on both of my houses. I believe that Staged Ryte did an excellent job of both setting up the houses as well as making them feel like they were very homey and lived in. It also happened without any real inconvenience to anyone. Moving in and out seemed seamless with their attention to all the little details. Of course, the proof is that both houses sold in under a week and I guess that tells the entire story." -  Jon Halpern, Homeowner/Seller
