What clients are saying....

By far the local EXPERT in her field. Jody & Lovitt by Design do an outstanding job from start to finish. One of my sellers had a Condo that had sat on the market vacant for over two months. Before even taking the listing, we discussed the possibility of staging and how it may be needed on this one. After Jody and her team finished staging, we had multiple showings and then offers started coming too (within two weeks of getting it staged and back on the market). Long story short we took an ALL-CASH sale and it just so happened to SET A NEW RECORD for the subdivision.

I sell a lot of homes (and set a lot of records). None of that would be possible if I did not have a solid team working with me on every listing!

If you have ever been hesitant about the idea of staging, believe me it works (if the staging is done right). Thanks, Jody, for all that you do, and I look forward to breaking even more records in the future!

The Condo looks wonderful. The furniture all looks perfect and the way you have it arranged makes it look especially spacious. Thank you, Jody!

We have always loved the uniqueness of each room of our house, and you have graciously brought out how beautiful the house can become in many different angles of presentation. The house is not large, but you have presented quite nicely how spacious each room can become for any function in a family’s life. The house is not only a great-looking house for any age group, but it can also be a wonderful home for anyone. Thank you for bringing out the best in the house.

I absolutely love everything you have done to make our new Airbnb comfortable for my family as well as for the guests we have. Buying this home in Michigan was a risk because I live in Texas, but you have made it seamless from start to finish with me being far away. The visit was great! I love, love, love the house – so comfortable. We’ve had a few renters and there are more already scheduled.

Jody and her team were so helpful during our selling process. She takes her time to really see how your unique home could be staged using her pieces mixed in with yours. She made this so easy during the most stressful time of selling a home. Truly trust her process and your photos and showing will be fantastic! We received multiple offers the first weekend on the market and made tens of thousands more than our asking price! Staging with Lovitt by Design is definitely worth it!

Consulted with Jody on exterior colors for our residence. Extremely pleased with her suggestions. Will be contacting her when project is completed and look forward to working with her again. Thank you, Jody.

Jody, we are so grateful for your help. You have such a unique gift. There are some things we are all going to encounter in our lives where we just don’t even know what we don’t know. This was the case for my husband and I when it came to staging our home. Thank you, Jody, so much for your tips and recommendations. When we purchase our next home. I’m going to seek your help on the front end so that I truly get to maximize and bring out the best in our space. Many thanks for all your insights and expertise.

Jody is just what I needed for my business! She’s amazing and has earned her keep. As a realtor, she helps me sell homes FASTER and FOR MORE MONEY. Her service pays for itself. She has an eye for knowing what works, consistently delivers a quality product and meets deadlines. I truly don’t know how she does it. Together, we’ve created some great success stories for our clients. I’m honored to be along for the ride. 🙂

Jody is tremendous. I’ve been working with her professionally, and recently engaged her service personally. Our clients LOVE her, and we always receive wonderful feedback. Personally, I’ve been impressed with even the small things she’s helped with in our house that have made us love our home even more. She’s perceptive, motivated, and gentle with her delivery (which is a special thing when someone is coming into your home and telling you how to change it!). She’s also been very conscious of our budget and navigated those waters gracefully as well. I highly recommend Jody to anyone looking to make their space comfy and fabulous, but maybe don’t have an eye for it yourself.

Jody and her team are a great staging company, they get their work done in a timely efficient manner. Jody is very creative with her décor ideas and always seems to find the perfect fit of furniture and accessories for the space regardless of the size or style of the house. Many times, the new homeowners ask to buy her furnishings after seeing how well she decorated the house. I would recommend Lovitt by Design to anyone who wants to work with a creative and energetic designer.
-Simony Silva

Jody is always professional and has a great sense of style. When we have used her to stage homes, we immediately get more shows and often an offer. She is always willing to help and has great ideas. Her attitude is infectious. We deal in a lot of high-end homes, and we know she is always available to help us out.
-Angie Schweickert

I have used Lovitt by Design to stage two different houses. They do such a beautiful job and make the rooms look even bigger. I am convinced that it helped me sell these houses faster. It definitely gives people an idea of what all can fit in each room instead of looking at just empty space. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Thanks, Jody, for doing such a great job.

My house sold on the first day in the market! The staging by Jody was amazing! I wish I’d had her outfit the house for me to enjoy in the first place before I ever planned to sell!!

Jody Lovitt is an outstanding home stager. With an eye for balance and beauty, expertise in color coordination, affordable prices and a network of trusted service providers, she is certainly an asset. Her pleasant and prompt approach to work, along with her ability to enhance value and reduce marketing time, make her highly recommendable.
-Jane Weasel
Danberry Realtors

When we decided to sell our home, we were skeptical about the additional expense of having our house staged – after all our house was in a great neighborhood. Our realtor recommended that we have our house staged by Jody. His experience had been very positive, and he felt staged houses sold quicker and for more money. He was absolutely correct. In two days, we had 7 offers and sold our home for $25K over the asking price. So, if you ask me, is staging with Jody worth it? My response is, absolutely YES!!!

I have had Jody stage home for me serval times and her décor always look fresh, up-to-date, and original. Her accessories are creative and unique, and she has amazing ability to visualize a room in new ways using existing furniture as well. I wouldn’t think of selling a home without using her! I loved what she did so well with the houses I was selling, I now use her at my own home to help with décor needs. She’s simply amazing.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jody, an incredibly talented home stager. Her expertise and eye for design transformed my property into a warm and inviting space. Thanks to Jody’s efforts, my house sold faster than I could have ever imagined, way over list price. I’m grateful for her outstanding work and highly recommend her staging services for anyone looking to sell their home.

We live in California and purchase a second home in Ohio – sight unseen (other than online pictures). We LOVED working with Jody to get our new home ready. After lots of texts, FaceTime, and phone calls with Jody, we arrived at our new home with freshly painted walls, new carpet, furniture, a bed to sleep in, even TV’s. She has a keen eye for color, design and aesthetics and considered our likes and dislikes. We would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. She works tirelessly to make everything just right – so when she is done – you LOVITT!

Jody has the magic touch – or shall I say, the “Lovitt Touch!”  She cared about the presentation and outcome of my home for sale as much as I did.  Jody is pleasant, flexible, talented, and communicative.  She delivered a captivating experience, full of whimsical accents and vibrant color palettes – when walking through the stage home.  Indeed, we had multiple offers, all above list price within hours of listing the house.  Now I see real estate listings without staging and immediately think, “this needs Jody!”

Totally worth it.  Don’t hesitate – hire Lovitt by Design and watch your properties fly off the market!

I am a house remodeler.  After meeting with several local stagers, Lovitt by Design stood out with their attention to detail and refined taste.  I did not have to explain much about how I wanted the house furnished.  They had great ideas that came to life more beautifully than I had imagined.  They even cleaned up some of the left-over debris from the construction without being asked to do it or charging extra before putting in the beautiful furniture.  They were punctual and professional and had a great competitive price.  I highly recommend Lovitt by Design.
-Zenia Tal

The staging of the house was perfect.  Everything that was selected accentuated each area of the home bringing out its beauty without overcrowding it.  Communication was great and professionalism was out of this world.

Jody brings so much more than furniture.  She positions rooms in a way that smartly portrays potential.  What she did magically transformed the way I physically felt when I entered the home.  I am convinced that her staging highlighted even more creative possibilities than I initially ever considered.  I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to meet and work with Jody Lovitt.

Lovitt by Design is my go-to company when I know a listing will benefit from staging.  Jody is easy to work with, her pricing is reasonable, and she has a keen eye for style. 

There is no doubt that Jody’s professional staging added great value to my listings, bringing competitive bidding and higher sales prices.

I have had Jody stage homes for me several times and her décor always looks fresh, up-to-date and original.  Her accessories are creative and unique, and she has an amazing ability to visualize a room in new ways using existing furniture.  I wouldn’t think of selling a home without her.
-Anne Sanford

Jody did a wonderful job staging our home.  She worked hard to incorporate a lot of our personal art and décor but added in exactly the right pieces to make every space balanced and appealing.  The furniture she selected to replace our well-loved pieces was “perfect” for the rooms and she created just the right balance of comfort and elegance – our home looked beautiful but also warm and welcoming.  We had an offer after 2 days, and I’m confident that Jody’s handiwork played a part in the quick sale of our home! 
-Laura Guenther

Jody is my go-to residential stager.  The fact is, when a homeowner makes the investment in staging their home, the home will sell both aster and for a higher dollar amount.  With a 30-year background in interior design, I can recognize when a home is properly staged.  Jody is an A++ in her field!
