Trotter Studios

I haven’t had any experience with Wendy where she didn’t come through! Whether staging an historic and hip conversion loft or an outdated mid-​rise condo needing a lot of creative help, Wendy always elevates the space with which we’re working. Add this to her responsiveness and commitment to working on my timeline, and she’s made it onto my short list of go-​to vendors.

I have worked with Wendy for years — most recently in one of my new listings where every other person that walked in commented on how much they loved the staging. That particular property was was not a simple home to make sparkle. She is flexible, has a fantastic eye for what works and doesn’t in a particular home and fair in her pricing. In the end I really believe it’s her work that speaks for her but in lieu of that let me please add my voice to her other fans when I say Wendy is always my first call when I am in need of staging.

Wendy and her team are terrific! She has a great eye for color, design, is prompt, responsive, and professional, which is not the case with many stagers. I am a Realtor and have used Wendy many times. Highly recommend Trotter Studios.

Wendy definitely transformed the space; her design ideas and eye for color, shape and style allowed us to show our home at its very best. I think one of the key reasons we got three above-​asking offers after only one weekend of open house, was the very appealing way our home looked to prospective buyers. Thanks Wendy for your excellent work.

Wow what a difference!!! Wendy completely transformed our loft condo. It is a unique 3 story in an historical building with a loft bedroom and a basement (unheard of in SF right? :). Wendy designed the space so that it was modern and elegant and yet comfortable to be in. She highlighted spaces so that buyers would be able to visualize several uses depending on their preference. Perfectly done! It was our first time using a stager and Wendy exceeded our expectations. She was professional and fun to work with! Highly recommend her!

Although this is our very first time selling a home, it would be very difficult indeed to imagine how a staging service could be any better than Wendy’s. We were operating on a very tight schedule, but she did a truly wonderful job even in the short time we gave her to work with. Our place is a gigantic (over 1450 sq ft) loft — a real loft, an open barn with no interior doors or walls (except for the bathrooms, of course). Using only furnishings and accessories, Wendy gave it very distinct living, dining, bedroom and lounge areas without sacrificing any of the wide-​open, light-​filled airiness that is the very essence of this type of home. (During the various showings, many of the people who came to see it made comments to the realtor about the excellence of the staging.) Wendy herself is a calm, cool and collected professional and very easy to work with, even for inexperienced folks like us. We’d be happy to recommend her to anyone.

Wendy is AMAZING! I utilize her for all my San Francisco listings. She is great with my clients and takes the time to send paint color suggestions, lighting suggestions (with links) and is always willing to recommend other great professionals such as window cleaners, etc. Wendy can take any property from average to spectacular which really assists a seller with getting every last dollar off the table! Thank you Wendy!

I’ve been a realtor in SF for many years but have only recently had the pleasure of working with Wendy Trotter. My clients used her to stage their Victorian condominium property and everyone was very pleased with her customer service & professionalism. This was a challenging situation because the family with 3 children were remaining in the residence during our marketing period. Wendy took extra time to meet with us to discuss how to use the existing furniture, helped us decide what colors to use when painting, and then brought in her supplemental art & other items. Once she worked her magic, the place looked amazing! And best of all, the family was able to blend everyday living with the partial staging, thanks to Wendy’s suggestions. I would definitely recommend her and will be calling her again for my next listing.

We had the pleasure of working with Wendy for our 1bed+den/1.5bath SOMA loft.
Our space is essentially a large rectangle with a non-​enclosed den in the back. Wendy’s design not only spelled out the functionality of each portion of the loft well, but also made the entire space much brighter and airier.
She has a great eye for blending colors as well as textures along with the natural finishes of the staircase, flooring, and cabinetry. We really liked the custom artwork she had for the living room wall, which was painted with some of the same colors and tones as a matching pairs of silk pillows placed on the sofa.
If you are on the fence about staging, we’d say that it really is going to be worth your while. And more importantly, having had Trotter Studios transform our space, we went into the selling process with confidence, had a truly pleasant experience, and great results — thanks so much Wendy!

Wendy did a wonderful job staging our condo! She is a professional, very pleasant to work with, has a positive attitude and flexible when we had suggestions of our own. We had a short time frame and she completed her work within deadlines. She turned our two bedroom /​two bath condo into a stunning and yet practical living space. Thank you Wendy!

Wendy was referred to me several years ago by a friend. Working with her ever sense has been a spectacular experience.
I absolutely love Wendy! She is energetic, innovative, creative and just a true professional which is crucial in the world of design and home staging in our demanding real estate market in San Francisco.
I have worked with her many, many times and she has a fantastic can do attitude even in the most difficult of circumstances.
Can’t wait for our next project together!

Wendy is incredibly talented. She has an amazing eye for interior design and helped me with every room in my 4 bedroom house. She’s great with working with what you have and adding key pieces or editing as necessary. Color is also a strong suit of hers. She’s realistic with costs and working within set parameters and doing amazing things for not much dough. Can’t recommend her more highly.
