Ever have a desire to completely change a room? Change your whole house? Are you looking to sell? Don’t have the time? Think you can’t afford it? Whatever is holding you back, Design By DesAnn can   TRANSFORM THAT DREAM INTO REALITY!

I’m sure you have heard of the new and exciting Interior Redesign and real estate Staging concept of decorating that is sweeping across the country.

Just like people you’ve seen on HGTV’S Decorating Cents or Oprah, you too can experience the transformation of a room in your own home, usually for less than the price of a new chair, and done in only one day!! Showcasing your own treasures you have lovingly accumulated in a manner that looks "designer" done but without the " designer" price. Whether your budget is large or small, Design By DesAnn can help.

Whether your home is on the market yet or not there is professional staging available for our customers. Homeowners and realtors can benefit greatly by a professional stager. A professionally staged home increases the homes appeal and therefore sell 15% faster and for the original asking price. National Realtor Association statistics have proven that professional staging works. TRANSFORM WHAT YOU OWN INTO SOLD!
