Testimonials & Recommendations

Pete Gross, Broker Associate, First Weber Group

Laura Baker has staged not only my listings, but also my own personal property for sale.  One of which was on the market for more than a year and a half.  All the buyers that entered that property in that year in a half could not see how well this new construction home could function.  Every showing prior to Laura’s staging was negative.  After Laura staged the property EVERY Showing Feedback was positive and it sold in just a few months.  Another of which she staged prior to putting on the market and it sold in 7 days for $40,000 more than I expected it to sell for!  Laura brings not only esthetic value, appealing to buyers and getting them into the properties to the table, but she brings monetary value to the table!

Greatly Staged. Probably the best I've seen!  Good job.

Since we had already moved out, the carrying cost of having our vacant house could have easily eaten up a large chunk of our equity.  Selling this house quickly was a high priority!   Laura and her team were able to paint, fix, clean and bring in all that was needed to make this empty house feel like a home.  Her understanding of color and placement of furniture brought out all the charming details of every room and maximized the space.  She was honest and non-threatening when transforming our property.  Between her teams work, Laura’s staging and the professional photo’s she has taken, we had more showings than we could believe.  The very first buyer to walk through the door, bought the house!

Diane Rue, Johnson Bank~Sr. Loan Officer

"I would highly recommend Laura Baker as a Realtor or Home Stager. Laura's diverse background gives her a unique perspective on what it takes to get the job done. She is honest, caring and sincere. Laura is prompt with her responses and always willing to go the extra step to make the process as smooth as possible. Choosing Laura, you will not be disappointed."

“We were delighted with the staging of our house on Black Hawk Drive.  Although we loved the house decorated to please us, we finally realized that the style was not going to sell to today’s buyer.  Laura definitely has a vision and recognition of what today’s buyer is looking for and she knows how to produce it!  The transformation was amazing and pleasing to the eye.  Obviously, the buyer saw the beauty of “our” house and it sold in 12 days of the time her team finished the staging.  We would recommend them without reservation.”

Paula McPherson, Realtor~Shorewest Realty, Watertown WI

“We had a gentleman come through the open house from two hours away, just to see if the house looked as beautiful in person as it did in the MLS.  He said the THIS house does not meet his needs but asked if Ready? Set,…Sell! Had any others in the area.”  This house sold in 22 days, after a bidding war, for almost $10,000 more than the owners thought it would actually close for.

We chose Laura Baker of Ready? Set,…Sell!  Home Staging and ReDesign to ensure a quick sale of our property and attract the best possible offers.  I was comfortable inviting Laura into our home and trusted her opinion.  Laura was knowledgeable, creative and assertive as she toured our home, giving honest advice and guidance which resulted in an absolutely stunning property.   Thanks to her Comprehensive Staging Report we were able to transform our house from an individualized style to a look that was appealing to a broader range of buyers, which resulted in a full price offer!

I've worked with Laura on a number of jobs and she has ALWAYS provided excellent advice, service, and given so much more of herself and her services than one could expect. I would recommend Laura to anyone who is in need of home staging or re-design.


Bill & Nancy, Oconomowoc

Creative, personable, comfortable person with whom to work even though she is working with you on some difficult things...putting your personal belongings and treasures away. The process was a little hard for me.  I still miss my pig collection but the reaction to her work has been worth it. People who have looked at the house comment on the presentation. Laura is kind of a magician. She can visualize what the end result should be and then put all the pieces together to accomplish what she "sees". I am so glad she helped us and am now a believer in professional staging. She did an excellent job for us and followed up and went above and beyond what was needed for us. I highly recommend Laura and her team at Ready? Set,...Sell! to my Friends, Family and Neighbors!

Laura & Tony, Lake Mills

“My husband mentioned last night, at first he was concerned why I was having Laura at the house.  But now he said he sees how it has made a difference even in the manner we are living in the house.  He feels we are more organized and that the house always looks nice.  We have become more disciplined and we are enjoying it.  Thank you again for all your help.”

Laura obviously has this home staging thing nailed! Her attention to the smallest detail is apparent from the first time you meet her. I would strongly recommend her anytime you need a home to look its best.



Brian, Jefferson

When my Realtor brought Laura into the home (with almost no budget and most of my furniture already moved out), I wasn't sure there was much of anything she could do for the house.  Working with what little was still in the house, Laura transformed the home to the point I actually said;  "WOW!  You have designed it to the point I may not want to leave!"  Clearly she really can work within any budget!  I was very happily surprised and will recommend Ready? Set,...Sell! to everyone I know.
