Portland, Oregon · Since 2014

Homes that photograph beautifully and sell faster.

Northlight prepares listings for market with furniture, art, and styling chosen for the room — and for the buyer walking through it. Most of the homes we stage go pending in under two weeks.

The difference

Same room. Same light. Different result.

Drag the handle to see what changes when a room is staged. Buyers are not imagining potential — they are responding to what is in front of them.

How it works

Four steps, and we handle most of them

From the first walkthrough to hauling everything away after closing.

  1. Walkthrough

    90 minutes

    We visit the property, photograph every room, and talk through your timeline, your listing price, and who is likely to buy the house.

  2. Staging plan

    2–3 days

    You receive a written plan with a room-by-room scope, the inventory we intend to bring, and a fixed quote. Nothing gets ordered until you approve it.

  3. Install

    1 day on site

    Our crew delivers and styles everything in a single visit. You come back to a finished house, ready for the photographer the following morning.

  4. Market and de-stage

    60 days included

    The staging stays through your rental period. Once you close, we schedule a pickup and remove everything without a mark on the walls.

What people say

Mostly, agents send us their next listing

Rated 5 out of 5

I have used four staging companies in twelve years of listing homes. Northlight is the only one my sellers thank me for. The Alberta craftsman had three offers before the second open house.

Deborah EllsworthPrincipal Broker, Ellsworth & Vance Realty

Rated 5 out of 5

We were sceptical about spending money on a house we were leaving. It came back to us many times over, and honestly the house looked better staged than it did in the six years we lived in it.

Marcus OyelaranSeller, Irvington

Rated 5 out of 5

The consultation alone was worth it. They gave us a list, we worked through it over two weekends, and the listing photos looked like a different property.

Priya RaghunathanSeller, Sellwood-Moreland

Rated 4 out of 5

Their crew works clean and they hit their install dates, which matters more than people realise when you are coordinating photography and a listing launch.
