• Marilyn staged 2 homes for us last spring..and let me tell you…what a transformation..beautiful! Marilyn went through the houses with her sharp eye and attention to detail, made suggestions for decluttering, painting and then came in with her amazing assortment of decor and furniture and let the magic happen..we couldn’t believe how our homes were transformed! I truly believe she is the reason we were able to sell so quickly and well over asking price…not only is Marilyn excellent at what she does, she is very easy to work with and just a super nice person!

• I have worked with Marilyn for several years and have always known her to be professional, driven and detail-oriented. Her care and respect for her clients is evident - always putting them first. Some people will go the extra mile for others, Marilyn lives there. I would recommend working with Marilyn without hesitation.

• I contacted Heart and Home Staging with a tight staging timeline, and Marilyn and Ruth went above and beyond. Their stunning decor and attention to detail undoubtedly played a key role in our home selling within just 4 days. Their expertise made all the difference!

• Marilyn and her team did an excellent job staging our house prior to us listing it for sale. Marilyn provided clear guidance about how we should prepare for staging and was quick to respond to questions. She had creative and thoughtful solutions and took great care in making sure each room was perfect. We are so thankful for her expertise and know that we wouldn’t have had as successful a sale without her help.

• I hired Marilyn @ Heart and Home to help me with colour selections and just general design choices. Then, recently, when we were selling our home, I hired her to stage our home for the sale. We were delighted when we were offered 40k over asking price. If you are contemplating hiring Marilyn for any of her services, I assure you, you will not be disappointed. She is talented, personable, professional and so incredibly gifted at what she does. I’m already planning to hire her to help select colours and design for our new home! Marilyn, we loved all of your design and paint suggestions and look forward to working with you again. Thank you for everything!

• "Marilyn Brophy did a wonderful job staging our home on McGibbon in Kanata. The furniture and decorations she brought in helped transform our house into a warm and elegant home. Marilyn’s work decorating our home was so fabulous we almost didn’t want to leave! Her dynamic use of colour, and her keen eye for design added tremendous value to the sale of our home. We appreciate her professionalism and enjoyed the time we spent together as our home was redesigned. We would highly recommend her services to anyone without hesitation" Doreen and Dylan

• Our house was being put up for sale and Marilyn came to stage it. She did a wonderful job on our house, it was so nice!! Our house was conditionally sold in 3 days and I think a big part of it was the staging because it allowed any potential buyers to envision what could be done in that space. Overall I would definitely recommend Marilyn for your staging needs!! You won’t be disappointed.

• Thank you for taking such good care of us with staging our townhouse as we prepared to put it on the market. You are clearly on your game and I particularly appreciated the attention to detail which the average person might not realize as being important. For example, you did a fantastic job of staging a particular room that was oddly shaped and situated. I would be willing to wager nobody could have done a better job. I know that I learned a ton from you throughout the process. Thank you for everything, including the education ! All the best to you and hope that we will have another chance to work together again.

• Marilyn provided excellent advice and guidance in the staging of our home in preparation for its sale. Her objectivity and keen eye helped us understand what potential buyers might see and want.

• Marilyn’s comprehensive report allowed us to stage our home in the best possible light, I highly recommend Heart & Home. We had offers in hand hours after our home was listed.

• We had the pleasure of working with Marilyn to stage our home and get ready to sell. She was extremely professional and took the time to prep us for everything. She transformed our home through her staging skills and advice. We loved our home staged so much we questioned why would we sell this beautiful home! Due to her amazing skill set we were able to sell our home within a week and much higher than our asking price. We cannot thank her enough for her help. We strongly recommend this company.

Thank you and your partner once again for an amazing job!!! I am already looking for another investment property and will be inviting you to stage again for sure!!!

• Selling your house is not easy. You need all the help you can get. Fortunately I got the best! Marilyn Brophy stages homes to appeal to potential buyers and she does a fantastic job. My house is always clean and uncluttered but she made it the best on the planet. She removes regular decorations and replaces them with fantastic ones that she owns and shares. She is so creative, her decorations are breathtaking. A video was created and I couldn't believe it was my house. Really. As I watched I was stunned. Every view elicited a 'WOW'. I shared it with friends and family and they unanimously said, "I want that house." On the very first showing a couple bought it and paid full asking price. I'm sure anyone who saw it would have wanted it. If you ever consider selling your home, do yourself a favour and contact: Marilyn Brophy 613-899-2029

• Preparing your house for selling is a very stressful and often expensive process, but Marilyn made everything so much easier for us for an affordable price! We just had to pre-pack our stuff and she did all the work! Every room in the house was just fabulous after her creative touch! With Marilyn you’ll run into 2 problems: 1 - you may want to change your mind and decide not to sell and 2 - the house will look so good, you’ll have to spend full days outside of it because of all the showings. The house is sold for a price that I didn’t even think about and I’m 100% sure that it was all because of her! Fantastic job, I’m beyond satisfied!

• Choosing to work with Marilyn was the best decision we could have made for selling our home. Unsure how to proceed, Marilyn immediately put us at ease. Incredible at what she does and so easy to work with, Marilyn provided us with a total creative plan. From selecting the paint colour to staging each room, her design wonderfully captured the charm of our home. Highlighting each space, her decorative touches seamlessly demonstrated the flow and function of the house. Marilyn’s ideas translated beautifully to our home and brought out the full potential of our property. We could not be happier with the result.

• We had our home staged to help sell our home…Marilyn and her team were outstanding….extremely professional, quick set up and removal. Our home never looked better!! I would highly recommend their services. I truly believe our home would have taken longer to sell if we hadn’t used Heart& Home!!
  Dave Campbell
• In a word, amazing! Marilyn’s design ideas and staging made our home look like a showroom. Lots of prospective buyers based on the photos. I would highly recommend Marilyn for any of your design or home staging needs. She’s fantastic at what she does and cares deeply about the client getting a good outcome. An investment you won’t regret! Thanks Marilyn!!
  ~ Susan McFadden Betts
• I hired Marilyn to stage a clients home just as the Covid19 situation came into full force. Thankfully this was an un- lived home, but a renovated home and Marilyn staged it beautifully. It sold in two days for full price. Thanks Marilyn, amazing job well done!

• ‘We would thoroughly recommend asking Marilyn to stage your home. She recently staged our house and we were amazed at the amount of work she put into it. It was exciting to come home and see the transformation once she’d completed the Staging! Her pleasant, efficient manner makes her easy to work with, and her work has given us lots of ideas for our new home! Our house sold in 3 days, considerably over asking price!

  ~ Wendy Saunders
• Marilyn was exceptional. With very little notice and timeframe she was able to quickly furnish my home and transform it. The numerous comments from agents and perspective buyers was outstanding. From start to finish Marilyn took care of all the details and allowed me to focus on selling my home. With her experience, dedication and her attentive nature to all details my house showings were a success and directly affected the quick sale and price. I highly recommend Marilyn for your staging needs and definitely know the value she will bring into your home.
  ~ Feizal
• I found Heart & Home Staging online and was extremely pleased with Marilyn’s services. Refurbishment? Well I guess you could say she helped me refurbish my outdated and blah colours I had on my walls! We met many times and she asked all the right questioned about what I wanted the end result to be...It is outstanding. I told Marilyn I wanted to walk into my home and feel a big hug, she delivered. What was to be a one room project turned into almost the whole house task! It was her confidence, listening skills, professionalism and her “HEART” that was awesome. Thank you Marilyn.
  ~Starr Van Lier
• For 24 years we lived in our home. Over that time we had collected a large amount of stuff. When we decided it was time to move, we had a battle on our hands to get the house ready to sell. Heart & Home was recommended by our agent. We couldn’t have done anywhere as well on our own. The house looked amazing when put up for sale! I even took notes for dressing our new home.
  ~Nicole Regan
• Marilyn is extremely talented and did a fantastic job staging our home. She is personable and professional and her work made a big impact on how our house presented. Marilyn is also a super kind person who is willing to be flexible and accommodating to help out the clients. We really enjoyed working with her and highly recommend her services!
  Jim Sun
• Thank you Marilyn and her fantastic crew!!! You did a wonderful job staging our home. We were so pleased with the results. Your design ideas complimented the style and age of our home perfectly and the photos turned out amazing. The icing was your infectious humour that made the process as stress-free as possible. Our house has sold and we couldn’t be happier with our decision to enlist Heart & Home Staging 🩷

• The Marilyn and Patti “Masterpiece” at 285 Calaveras Avenue I in Nepean. From our first meeting with Marilyn and talking for only about 10 minutes , my wife and I immediately believed she had the talent and the creative vision to make our home into something really special. Marilyn viewed each room with warmth, focus, and incredible clarity. She was able to single out her theme, for each room, yet always incorporating it into the big picture. Easier said than done. Marilyn’s eye for accent pieces enable each room to uniquely shine brightly. In hindsight, we are absolutely thrilled with our choice to welcome “Heart & Home Real Estate Staging” to assist in the selling of our family home. Without a doubt, “Heart & Home Real Estate Staging” was the game changer. Marilyn’s report to assist us in getting our home ready for staging was extremely detailed, informative, and achievable. Our staging fee was quite reasonable for the comprehensive services that were provided. We would strongly recommend “Heart & Home Real Estate Staging” to any potential sellers. Amazing job, ladies! Our home sold in 3 days for comfortably above the asking price.

• Our home was beautifully decorated and contributed to the fast sale of our condo. Highly recommend Marilyn as she was professional, easy to communicate with throughout the process and did a great job!
  ~ Sarah Isabella
• It was an absolute pleasure to have Marilyn on my team. She's a proven team player, always keen to share, motivate those around her and full of great new ideas. She has always held her clients with high regard and has maintained a linear focus on meeting their individual needs which resulted in long lasting and trusting relationships. When met with challenges, Marilyn left no stone unturned and worked tirelessly until the job was complete making her someone you can rely on to go above and beyond to get the job done. I would highly recommend Marilyn Brophy.
  ~ Jennifer Kopacz
• Very professional… I was skeptical at first, however the staging really did make a huge difference! Our house conditionally sold within days! Highly recommend.
  Kimberley
• I recently had the pleasure of working with Marilyn Brophy from Heart & Home to stage a vacant home in Stittsville, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results! Marilyn is an absolute professional who truly understands how to transform a space. She brought in beautiful, carefully selected furniture, and thoughtfully hung pictures and mirrors to create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The attention to detail was remarkable, and she even added the perfect finishing touches to ensure every room looked magazine-worthy. Thanks to Marilyn’s expertise, the home went from feeling empty and lifeless to a stunning, functional space that buyers could immediately envision themselves in. I’m confident the staging will play a huge role in the sale. If you need a talented, reliable home stager in the OTTAWA area, I highly recommend Marilyn Brophy from Heart & Home!
