"Cindy was absolutely amazing. She helped me quickly make an achievable list of what need to be done to sell my house without spending extra money. She is enthusiastic, helpful, and a pleasure to work with." - Tamara Richman
"I was able to sell my home in 10 DAYS because I had Stellar Stagings & Redesigns by my side. I met with Cindy and walked through my entire home taking notes on how best to show it. Her expertise and calm manner put me at ease right away. I'd been living in the house for 17 years and was terrified of the thought of staging and selling. After I took a breath, I got to work fixing up the minor things that make a difference to buyers. Cindy's artistic creativity in placing just the perfect staging pieces made this home look beautiful, spacious and welcoming. My experience was one that I would repeat in a heartbeat. Thank you Stellar Stagings & Redesigns!" - Vera Beal
"[Cindy] has a great sense of style, understands whats trending. Is in tune with color,texture and respects the space showing its potential and capturing its character. A true professional!" - Dee Glenn
"Cindy and her Team did a great job staging our home for resale. She showed up on time and coordinated great with the Real Estate agent to get great photos for listing and showings. This helped created a lot of interest , multiple offers, and get the house sold quickly in less then a week. Her relationship with Remax Diamond Realtors and Michele Rizzo got the transaction done as it let prospective buyers visualize the space as their own. We didn’t directly hire her, but I would recommend her to anyone who has a need for her services. It definitely made the difference as the house was vacant and unfurnished since we moved out months prior. Thanks Again." - Peter Stavrinou
"Working with Cindy at Stellar Designs was a pleasure. After six months on the market, Cindy staged my mother-in-law's house beautifully and we received an offer within a week. She was very professional, highly responsive to calls and e-mails and did a great job with furniture choice and placement. I highly recommend and will definitely utilize her services again. "- isklemick
"Working with Cindy & her team is a wonderful experience...Her ideas and concepts are FIRST class. From a business standpoint everything flowed as planned, her execution is superb! We were absentee sellers, after putting a lot on money into the house, still did not move. We engaged Cindy and her ideas. The house looked wonderful, it sold within two months, we closed this past week. Everything about dealing with Cindy was on point, ideas were outstanding and execution was smooth as silk. Install and uninstall were uneventful.......We are 600 miles away, she did not let us down. Oh by the way, she gets it!!!! Classy lady and world class service." - Richard Dye
"Cindy is a true professional. She has a great sense of design and manages to make rooms look larger with furniture and accessories. She is also a pleasure to work with. As a real estate broker I have no reservations at all about letting her work with my clients. I highly recommend her!" - Debbie Carter
"Cindy is AMAZING at what she does! She staged my house and it sold within 5 days. I'm positive it's because of how beautiful she staged it and the pictures she took of it. She takes her time and makes sure every last detail is perfect. She is a pro! Thank you Cindy! I highly recommend her services." - Heather Sowder
"The reason I'm giving Stellar Staging & Redesigns the highest rating 5 stars is because I had an Open House for 2 hours and I had 2 offers that resulted with a solid offer by the end of the day. Working with Cindy Mussman who added the right furnishings to an empty house made it look better than I could ever had imagined. She is truly a professional. I knew from doing research that empty houses don't sell as quickly as furnished houses and one that is staged properly sells a lot faster----I can vouch for that!" - Grace Wilkens
"As a seasoned agent I am using a Stager for all my listings no matter what price range. Just recently I listed an Expired home. Was on market for 245 days and the photos of that listing were done by IPhone and in the kitchen you could see many objects on the counter as well as kitchen table. The focal point of the living room is the Copper flu fireplace however, with some of the objects surrounding the fireplace it distracted you. When Cindy Mussman came in she talked the client through the process of staging the house and how important it was to make a few changes whether large or subtle. She stressed that each room has its own focal point. When she came to the living room with Copper flu fireplace she immediately moved a few end tables around so that the fireplace becomes the focal point. It was just the subtle change of moving furniture around or taking items away that made it a big difference in how any prospective buyer would see it for the first time. When it came time to professional photography the staging did wonders for the home and most likely led to the many showings we had the first 2 weeks along with multiple offers and going above the asking price." - Daniel Surman
"Cindy was extremely professional, prompt, and flexible. Communication was excellent and everything was as promised. The house looks great, and we know her staging is going to help us sell more quickly." - Metnjfambly
"Hi , I have worked with Cindy several times, and she is Excellent with her Job. She is has a great vision and experience and will make things happen for you.

I love working with her, and she will go above and beyond to work with you and your client. All my listing staged with her helped me selling home for more Money!!" - Aaneja02
"You have been a pleasure to be associated with and have helped us move our house in two days over the Labor Day weekend. That is pretty amazing, first showing Friday and offer Sunday, The process begins with our first meeting with you for the walk thru and your suggestions as to what need to be done in every room. After living in the house for 36 years, we were a little defensive because there were a lot of changes to be made in your opinion. I had signed on to your suggestions 100%, you know our target market, so we had better listen. We needed a quick sale because we were committed to a new property out of state. We spent the next 4 weeks implementing your suggestions before you came back to stage the home and take photographs for the internet. In our opinion and that of most of our friends and relatives, the house was amazing and never looked so good or spacious, a concept you sold us on early in the process. We are completely satisfied with your vision of our home, your eye for style and the cost of the project. I would and have recommended you to my friends and think it has been a great investment." - Pat and Jim Walsh
"I have used Cindy from Stellar Stagings for several houses that I was the listing for. Each one sold very quickly an at a good price. She did an awesome job at presenting these properties. There were some great challenges that she worked out. I highly recommend her." - Michriizzo
"I have found Cindy's "Walk and talk" consultations to be a great way to sell my listings faster and for more money! She walks each room and gives clients suggestions for rearranging, decluttering and changing decor so the home shows its best. She has a pleasant personality and a great sense of humor so I am always happy to introduce her to my clients. She is a trained and experienced decorator and her suggestions are always right on. She has a gentle way of making suggestions that wins over the clients. We always have fun and the houses sell quickly. I can't recommend Cindy Mussman enough! Thank you." Mary Churchill
"Cindy was amazing! She helped us figure out how to stage our house for showings and pictures, resulting in our home selling in under a week with multiple offers! She helped us with a personalized list of what to do in each room which made is much less overwhelming. Super friendly and great energy too. Highly recommend!" - Lauren B.
"Cindy was a major factor in getting our condo sold quickly. The staging recommendations that she made were very specific and easy to follow (which we did to the letter) and also required almost no money to implement. The end result was fabulous! It made our condo look like a nice extended stay hotel suite and the pictures looked absolutely stunning afterwards. Many of her suggestions were beyond what you see in the typical staging advice articles and on websites and were really tailored to our specific unit. We already understood we would need to “declutter” and “remove personal item” but this was much more than that. We listed and sold within 2 days and I’d attribute a large portion of that to Cindy making our place look great. She clearly knows how to bring out the best in a home. Aside from the results we also found Cindy very professional and pleasant to work with. She was an absolute sweetheart and was available by email for questions and also coordinated with the painter we had already hired to select the best color. We couldn’t recommend her highly enough. 5 stars, A+, two thumbs up…all that stuff" - David & Becky Wittmer

"Cindy has worked with many of my fellow agents and they have always given her rave reviews. I called on Cindy to look at a new listing for me with a different set of eyes and give her professional opinion. She met my clients with a warm, friendly smile and put them at ease immediately. Her suggestions was wonderful and very helpful. My clients said they never even thought of some of the changes. She explained each and every reason for making the suggestion which was also very helpful. I know the home is now staged to perfection. I will use and recommend Cindy for future projects." - Joanne Covino

I was astonished at how these simple moves dramatically changed the way the spaces photographed. I'm convinced that Cindy played a big part in selling my home within a few days of listing. I highly recommend her to stage your house." - Arlene Wagner Duda
"Cindy from Steller Staging is a phanominal tool to use in the sale of your home. She was flexible with her time, very personable, and a great source for current trends people are attacted to. With Cindy's help, we were able to take a 1300 sq ft condo (for a family of 4!) and turn it into a bidding war on the first day the property hit the market. I highly recomend you use Cindy if you are looking for a quick sale and top dollar for your home." - Kamilla Dalterio

"In the course of preparing our home for sale, our realtor suggested a consultation with Stellar Stagings. To say Cindy and her team did a wonderful job staging our home would be an understatement. Her numerous recommendations and spot-on enhancements were a huge part of the success we experienced with the sale. We received an offer on our home the first day it appeared in the MLS listing and, within a week, our home was under contract. We couldn't be happier with Stellar Staging & Redesigns and recommend them to anyone looking to enhance their home for sale." - Deborahp51
"Cindy and her team did a wonderful job staging our home. We truly believe their professionalism and creative vision were a huge part in the success we experienced with the sale. Our home had an offer just 1 day after hitting the MLS and we ended up with multiple offers resulting in a final sale price that exceeded our asking price. We couldn't be more pleased with Stellar Staging and Redesigns and highly recommend them to anyone looking to maximize their sale potential." - Pintact
"I am extremely satisfied with the service that Cindy Mussman and her team at Stellar Stagings & Redesigns provided for us. My husband and I decided that, after living in Metuchen and raising our 4 kids here, it is time to move on and live closer to New York City. The idea of selling our house was daunting. Our house that we love, we realized, was actually cluttered and dated. That is where Cindy came in. She spent hours giving us room-by-room specific ideas. She told us what furniture could stay and what should go. She even gave us paint colors -- by number -- to use in each room. I used her list as my 'bible' and completed ALL of her recommendations. Of course this could not have been accomplished without the help of Cindy's Specialists. Yesterday, Cindy and her team performed their magic. Cindy was able to use our furniture, in combination with her accent pieces, and created a beautiful end result. Cindy went beyond all my expectations regarding service, follow through and finished product. I am thrilled and can't wait to show off my home." - Margie Barrett
"Cindy was recommended to me by my realtor. I asked her to take a look at my property and tell me how much she would charge for staging it. She called me after she visited my house and we had a very open honest discussion. She did not want to stage my house if it would not be useful to the sale of my home. I really appreciated her honesty! She recommended painting and updating the kitchen. She was instrumental in the kitchen update, helping to pick tile, colors, and even in the purchase of the counter top. I think she was spot on with her advice, and she was extremely helpful and flexible. She helped complete the updates in a shorter time frame and was there for every detail and every question. The staging itself was quick and smooth. The Best!" - Andrea Kollath
"The Stager [Cindy] had alot of information and ideas that helped us get ready for selling our house. At first some of the ideas pitched seemed a bit extreme, but once we completed the list, everything looked pristine and clean and like there was a lot more room in the house. It worked well...the house sold very quickly!" - Lissa Izzo
"Cindy's professional interior design training brilliantly shines through her staging work. She knows how to strategically liven up a home to make it feel more modern, fresh, and appealing to potential buyers. By smartly removing certain pieces of furniture, and adding in some thoughtfully chosen props, she transformed my mother’s traditionally-decorated home and magically made it appeal to a wide audience for sale. Net-net, the home sold with multiple bids within the first few days on market. This experience proved to me the importance of home staging to save the seller time and money. Cindy is super talented and easy to work with. I highly recommend her!" - Silvia de Martino
"Cindy came to stage my home in prepping for sale. She was professional and her suggestions were very helpful. We rearranged furniture and got some wonderful ideas for simple ways to make the house more visually appealing to potential buyers. She is a pleasure to work with, and gives explanations for all suggestions. The ideas she gave were always optional and generally easy to implement. It was a very positive and worthwhile couple of hours." - Kim Marie Shiah
"Cindy was extremely helpful in giving me worthwhile input on how to stage my house before I put it on the market. We went through each room and she patiently gave me tips for how to move things around so that the set up would show the room at its full potential. Cindy gave me good tips on tough spots to clean and the products that would work best. She also gave me ideas on how to get rid of my unused furniture. I was very pleased with how the photos of my house turned out thanks to Cindy's valuable help." - Sueparisen
"Cindy was hIred to help stage my house prior to listing it for sale. She was professional, respectful and absolutely wonderful. She has a very keen eye for color and detail. Her suggestions and recommendations for each room made them look spectacular. Cindy was an absolute pleasure to work with." - Joan Rodriguez
"At first we were reluctant to engage a consultant to help us stage our home as we felt confident that we had already successfully done so by decluttering and had followed written how-to home staging guides prior to her being brought in by our realtor. Within the first few minutes of her arrival it became clear that Cindy's expertise and third party perspective would be of tremendous value. Cindy taught us the true meaning of the term, "less is more". She stressed the importance of "keeping the focus of the prospective buyers on the space and flow not on your decor". Following a room-by-room review Cindy assisted in the transformation process by actually helping us to move unnecessary furniture and decorator items to our basement for storage. Cindy's professional demeanor and delightful sense of humor made it easy to welcome her into our home from the start. We are truly convinced that Cindy's vision and transformation of our space was a key contributing factor in showing our home at its best and in receiving two full price offers after just one day on the market. Thanks again Cindy, your the best!" - BioBill
"Very professional, but more importantly to me, she was very considerate of the fact that the home where I've lived for over forty years was being transformed into something totally different. The change was difficult for me, but I am glad she was there to help. Her staging using all of my own décor is hopefully going to help me sell my home!!" - HU-519339
"I was delighted with Cindy's suggestions about the things that I should do in preparation for selling my house. She has an excellent grasp of the current housing market, and she suggested improvements that would make my house look terrific to potential buyers." - Beverly Roberts
"Stellar staging was hired to stage a multi unit town home. They were, exceptional and exceeded all of my expectations. The units were vacant and upon completion looked like model homes. I believe one hundred percent that this created the buzz that sold this house in one week on the market. The are professional, courteous, experts, and I will hire them again and again." - House Wise LLC
"Cindy can give that home the "WOW" factor. She is especially talented in preparing a home for sale no matter what the price range. One of my clients was extremely happy to receive an offer for their condo before the other 5 that were on the market at the time, coordinated their closing with the new purchase, and moved the family in for the holidays. The clients that use Stellar Staging for home sale preparation are always happy with the service and are relieved to get the home sold in the quickest time and at the highest market price. Stellar Staging is included in my marketing plan when working with a Seller of a home... I wouldn't have it any other way!"- Dawn Ochs
"I would recommend Cindy and her team at Stellar Staging. My client had hired her for his new construction property. The staging helped show the property well, and we were able to obtain a contract in less than one week. Cindy and her team were professional and always available. Hiring Stellar Staging will help sell your home faster, and receive a higher sales price." - Diane Gfrerer-Berry
"Let me say that I've worked over the last 38 years with many different companies along with the people behind those companies and I have yet to find one as sincerely caring, well educated in her field and most of all, a woman with honor of keeping her word. You are priceless, thank you for all your time extra special care and love for your craft." - Ada L.
"Cindy did a room by room consultation for us and I followed her guidance to the letter which proved incredibly invaluable. We had three offers by the end of the first week-end of showing the house - two at full price, resulting in a sale greater that the listing price. Cindy knew exactly what we needed to do to attract buyers and I would highly recommend her to every homeowner looking to sell their house" - Henry Reisch
"I was expecting magic and it was MAGIC! Cindy exceeded my expectations and that rarely happens. I was so impressed with her work that I asked her if she would come to my new house in Florida and make it my home. Her sense of style and the cohesive way she tied all the rooms togerther through the use of color really made my house stand out from the competition.. Staging is worth every penny and all homeowners need to do this when they are selling their house." - Rosalee G.
