What does it cost to stage a property in Dubai? We answer that in public. Our staging fees are published in full, by property type and by bedroom count, on a single page anyone can read. This piece explains the numbers and why we put them in the open.
What we charge
Staging an apartment or townhouse starts at AED 48,000, with one bedroom included. That base covers the rooms a buyer reads first, the entryway, hallway, kitchen, dining, living and powder bath, together with the balconies and the full editorial media set. Each additional bedroom, with its en-suite, adds AED 9,000, so a three-bedroom apartment is AED 66,000. Villas run on the same logic at a larger scale, from AED 82,000 with one bedroom included, with the outdoor areas included, and AED 16,000 a bedroom; a five-bedroom villa is AED 146,000. The full table, with what sits inside and outside the fee, is on the staging pricing page.
The furniture itself is the client's own investment, billed at cost, and it conveys with the property when it sells, so the spend is recovered rather than lost. The furniture is scoped with the designer at the consultation, once the property has been seen. Everything around it, the sourcing, vendor coordination, order placement and movers, is included in the staging fee.
Why we publish it
So a seller can price the listing properly, before it goes to market. With the staging fee published, you and your real estate broker can build the studio's fee into the asking price from the start; the furniture, billed at cost and scoped at the consultation, is recovered when the property sells.
Because the furniture conveys with the property at sale, that investment is carried into the listing rather than lost. Knowing the staging fee up front turns the decision to stage into a clear calculation a seller and broker can make together, not a guess.
