Testimonials

Nairn, you are the best! I don't think I will ever stop saying that. We sold in four days for $300,000 more than the only other offer we had received in 6 months before your staging. Thanks again for all your help, decorating, showcasing and most of all, your fun and enjoyable company.

Nairn's repositioning of our furniture to better highlight the architectural detail of the house and removing unneeded drapery to better showcase our landscaped one-acre property was inspired. The buyer said it made the difference for her and that it might have been overlooked if not "staged" for a high impact, first impression. I now find myself taking a more edited approach to our new home and incorporating Nairn's "less can be more" furnishing philosophy.

Thank you for the stunning transformation of my brownstone. There isn't a single person who has come in and just been bowled over. This is a very, very tough market right now and I give you and your team a full measure of credit for the fact that we have two bids on the table. Thank you, thank you!

Many, many thanks -it was three weeks from the first open house to a signed contract- unbelieveable! It was on the market "undressed" from August to December with only the most meager nibbles and many complaints about the enormous amount of work that needed to be done. What a difference your staging made!

Thank you so much for your spectacular work on our apartment. We think it's dramatically better and will implement the changes you recommended. We think the changes you made in the media room are fantastic. The room appears so much bigger and is easily understandable as a guest bedroom. We also adore both of the entryways. Thank you so much for your tremendous help. You're truly gifted.

Nairn's impeccable taste and design skills turned my somewhat drab 550 square foot apartment into a breezy open space full of light and warmth. Staying well within a reasonable budget, she totally transformed my home. I can't say enough about how incredible the difference was! Thanks to her, the bidding war grew heated, and the final offer came in at $26,000 more than the asking price.

Hi Nairn. We did it! We signed a contract today and now we can co-ordinate with the close on our new place. I cannot thank you enough for all that you did to help me prepare. There is no way I could have done it without you!

It was a real pleasure working with Nairn. She is very practical and efficient and her ideas on how to make our NYC apartment and terrace more inviting and glamorous were fantastic. I thought I was going to have to put in a new kitchen, but with a few changes that cost under $200, Nairn helped us transform the kitchen so that everyone loved it - one buyer even told us the kitchen and terrace reminded her of a villa where she had lived in Rome!. Nairn's eye for staging was invaluable.

It is such a pleasure to work with you and see a space transformed before our eyes. You have a way of presenting facts to owners that is very straightforward but also so diplomatic, that they are ready to hear what needs to be said.

Nairn Friemann is amazing. I have her stage every listing that I get. She has done miraculous things with listings I have had, and made the amount of time on the market a fraction of what it would be if the apartment were not staged. She is excellent with difficult sellers who are stubborn and feel that staging is a waste of money. After they see the transformation she can make on their property, they are always glad they listened to her, and they are always pleased with the higher price they ultimately receive.

As a Real Estate Agent it is essentially important to me to work with professionals who will give my clients the level of service that I have built my reputation on providing. Again and again, Nairn has exceeded my expectations; I have never worked with a stager that has gone above and beyond for their clients as much as Nairn. When I recommend Nairn to a customer I know not only will they get a good product, but they will get their money's worth and she will ultimately help me in getting for my clients the highest possible price for their apartment. She is not afraid to tackle the challenging projects; she comes up with creative solutions where others might have seen the issues as road blocks. Nairn is able to give amazing attention to the largest most sophisticated jobs as well as the small jobs that just need a consultation. If you decide to use Nairn you won't be sorry!

I would not think of putting a property on the market without Nairn's "magic"...I had the saddest, most claustrophobic, depressing 1 bedroom apartment on Riverside Drive. I was sure this apartment would be a lifetime project to sell. It took Nairn approximately four hours to transform this apartment into a happy, calm, Zen-like apartment... At my 1st open house I got six offers and it went into contract in 1 week!!!

Nairn is one of the very few stagers that understands the difference between staging and decorating. I want my listings to have a happy and calm feeling, with an attractive look. She totally gets it...I am selling space and wonderful environment ... I am not a decorating showroom in the D&D building.

Wow. You are a God send. I don't know how you do it. Thank you very much! You have a way with people. Priceless.

It is very rare in this business that I come across a service or a system that garners me both immediate, eye-popping results and a reduction in stress and anxiety for myself and my clients. Thank you for all the work your do. You are a credit to your profession.

I held a broker's open house and the agents who remember the old home loved the new home. We will now appeal to a broader spectrum of buyers, including a younger set. The homeowners are thrilled with the success of your work. You made me look great in the eyes of my clients and I thank you for that too.

Nairn can tell your clients exactly what they need to do to get the most for their apartment and does so without offending your client. She is a value-added service you can offer your sellers, and one that they cannot afford to turn down.

It gives me great pleasure to recommend Nairn Friemann, a Certified Staging Professional and President of Ingenuity & Pizzazz, Inc. Her expertise is extensive including the superb work performed on an 800 square foot terrace that was beautifully and professionally landscaped. Best of all my listings sold within several weeks after she had worked on the apartments!
