Staging Secrets: How to Sell Your Home Faster (and for More) with Christie Giboney
On this episode of All Things PNW, we sit down with Christie Giboney, lead designer and team manager at White Glove Home Staging and Improvements, to talk all things home staging. With over 6 years of staging experience and a real estate license to boot, Christie breaks down what actually moves the needle when it comes to prepping a home for sale.
We cover:
How much staging can really boost your final sale price (and cut down time on market)
The top 3 areas to stage first if you're working with a limited budget
Design trends worth following — and which finishes to keep timeless
Staging vacant vs. owner-occupied homes, and why the latter is trickier (and more rewarding)
Where AI and virtual staging fit in — and why Christie's not always a fan
The most overlooked room that can make a big impact
A real before-and-after story where staging turned a stale listing into a two-week sale
What sellers should start doing now if they're planning to list in the next 6–12 months
Plus, we close things out PNW-style with local restaurant picks and our go-to cocktail segment.
Whether you're a seller, an agent, or just curious what goes into making a house market-ready, this episode is packed with practical, real-world staging advice.
