Acacia Creek Home Staging was established in 2009 when home staging was still a relatively new concept to the real estate market. Founder, Jessica Bass‘ love for design blossomed when she started working at her mom’s retail store where she quickly took over designing and decorating all of the displays. She attended Cuesta College where she completed the Interior Design program and soon found herself working with her aunt, who owned a real estate company.
I realized early on that becoming an agent wasn’t for me. However, during my time in the agency, I found myself adding accessories to the homes we were listing. It wasn’t long before other agents began to inquire about the stager responsible for these enhancements. My first project was a ranch house that included a pool house and a loft above the barn. To fulfill this job, I had to rent, borrow, and purchase a significant amount of furniture, art, and accessories. The project was a huge success, and as a result, I accumulated a substantial inventory. This led me to the decision to launch my own staging business.
Upon deciding that creating a staging company would not only fulfill her love for interior design but her interest in real estate as well, Jessica created Acacia Creek Home Staging.
