Welcome to Affordable Homes Staging. These Terms of Service explain the rules that apply when you visit our website, contact us, request information, or use our staging and interior styling services.
Throughout these Terms, “Affordable Homes Staging,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Affordable Homes Staging. “You” and “your” refer to the website visitor, property owner, realtor, agent, host, developer, client, or other person using our website or services.
By accessing our website or requesting our services, you agree to these Terms. Please do not use the website if you do not agree with them.
Our Services
Affordable Homes Staging provides property presentation services in Los Angeles, CA. Our services may include:
- Home staging
- Staging for realtors
- Vacant staging
- Occupied staging
- Airbnb preparations
- Model home staging
- Luxury staging
- Interior styling
The exact work provided depends on your property, selected service, schedule, inventory availability, and written agreement.
Information on our website gives a general description of our services. It does not guarantee that every service, furniture item, accessory, design choice, or appointment date will be available for every project.
Website Information
We try to keep the information on our website clear and accurate. However, property needs, available inventory, service areas, pricing, schedules, and business practices may change.
Website content is provided for general information. It is not a binding quote, contract, promise, or guarantee.
A service relationship begins only after we accept your project and both parties agree to the applicable estimate, proposal, invoice, work order, or service agreement.
Service Estimates and Proposals
You may contact us to request information or discuss a property. We may ask for details such as:
- Property address
- Property type
- Number and size of rooms
- Current property condition
- Whether the property is vacant or occupied
- Listing, photography, showing, or launch dates
- Requested service
- Property photos or videos
- Access requirements
- Expected staging period
Any initial price discussed by phone, text, email, or website form may be an estimate only.
Your final price may depend on the confirmed scope, property visit, room count, furniture needs, delivery requirements, access conditions, staging period, requested changes, and other project details.
Only a written estimate, proposal, invoice, or service agreement approved by us will control the project price and scope.
Separate Service Agreements
Certain projects may require a separate written agreement. That agreement may include terms covering:
- Project scope
- Furniture and accessory selection
- Rental periods
- Delivery and removal
- Deposits
- Payment dates
- Rescheduling
- Cancellations
- Property access
- Damage or missing inventory
- Extensions
- Photography
- Storage
- Additional work
- Insurance requirements
When a separate service agreement conflicts with these website Terms, the separate agreement will control the project-specific issue.
Pricing and Payments
Prices may vary based on the service requested and the needs of the property.
You agree to pay all approved charges listed in your estimate, proposal, invoice, or service agreement. Payment terms and accepted payment methods will be stated in the applicable project documents.
We may require a deposit, partial payment, or full payment before reserving a date, ordering items, delivering inventory, or starting work.
A project date may remain unconfirmed until the required agreement and payment have been received.
Additional charges may apply when you request work outside the approved scope. We will inform you of the added work and price before proceeding when reasonably possible.
Taxes, delivery charges, rental extensions, processing charges, or other fees will apply only when stated in the applicable estimate, invoice, or agreement.
Scheduling and Availability
Appointments and project dates depend on our schedule, staff availability, property readiness, and staging inventory.
A requested date is not confirmed until we approve it.

We may suggest removing, storing, rearranging, or replacing certain pieces. You remain responsible for deciding whether to follow recommendations involving personal property.

Realtors and agents must not make commitments on our behalf without written permission.

We will not apply a cancellation or rescheduling charge unless it was disclosed in the applicable project documents or otherwise permitted by law.
Rental Extensions and Removal
Staging items must remain at the property only for the agreed rental period.
Contact us before the scheduled removal date if you need an extension. Extensions depend on inventory availability and may require additional payment.
An extension is not approved until we confirm it in writing.
