Hybrid Edit FAQ's
Everything you need to know.
Because we’re working with your existing furniture, our process starts with an on site assessment to decide exactly what stays and what we elevate.
Is the Hybrid Edit cheaper than staging a vacant home?
Often, no. It is a common misconception that keeping some of your existing furniture makes the staging process cheaper. We can only indicate this once we complete an on site consult.
In reality, The Hybrid Edit is a highly specialised design service. Rather than working with a blank canvas, our team must meticulously curate our luxury inventory to flawlessly match the scale, style, and colour palette of your existing pieces. Additionally, installing premium staging inventory around a family currently living in the home requires significantly more logistical planning, careful handling, and time on site. You are investing in a bespoke, editorial integration, rather than a budget shortcut.
Do I need to be home when you set up?
Not at all. Most sellers or agents simply leave a key for us in a lockbox. We handle all the heavy lifting, styling, and taking away any packaging rubbish. You can come home from work to a completely transformed house.
Will you ask me to remove or store any of my own furniture?
Sometimes if a piece isn’t working for the space (dated, the wrong scale, or worn), we’ll flag it and suggest either removing it for the campaign or storing it elsewhere in the home, out of view for photography and inspections.
Storage isnt included in the quote but we can help with this as an extra service. We’ll always discuss this with you before anything is moved and can provide advice on your options.
How much disruption is there to daily life during the install?
Minimal our team works efficiently and respectfully around your home, and we’ll agree an install day and approximate timeframe with you in advance so you know what to expect.
Can we use the soft furnishings while occupying the property?
Styled soft furnishings (bedding, cushions, throws etc) are provided for photography and inspection purposes only and aren’t intended for everyday use. For an occupied bedroom, we can style a decorative layer you reset each morning, or style a guest or spare room instead so your everyday bedroom stays untouched.
Do you charge a damage waiver or bond for occupied homes?
All home staging projects have a Bond paid in full before installation, regardless of how you’re paying for your styling package. This covers potential cleaning and damage.
The bond rate is low for vacant properties (circa $150) but increases for occupied staged homes as the risk of damage and need for cleaning is much higher – especially in homes with pets or young children.
If the inventory doesn’t require cleaning (eg pet hair or stain removal) AND there is no damage beyond normal wear, then the bond is fully refundable within 14 days.
Where cleaning is needed or damage beyond normal wear is identified (eg pet hair, stains, tears, marks breakages or loss) then a cleaning, repair or replacement cost is deducted from your Bond reflective of bringing the item back to professional home staging presentation standards. For this we are happy to provide an itemised breakdown and photos. Any remaining Bond is refunded within 14 days.
Where damage exceeds the Bond, the balance is invoiced separately, due within 7 days.
