WELCOME!
We’re Briana and Krista - twin sisters and founders of Swift Haven Interiors.
​
We share a passion for design, marketing, and the art of home sales. With a deep understanding of buyer psychology, design trends, and the real estate market, we craft aspirational spaces that connect emotionally and motivate offers.
​​
What Sets Us Apart
Our goal is simple: to help our local communities of sellers and real estate agents achieve beautiful, swift, and profitable sales.
As a small, family-owned company, we focus on quality and results rather than the number of homes we stage. Every project receives our full attention and care — and with over $100 million in staged listings sold in just three years, we’ve seen firsthand how thoughtful design and strategic preparation lead to success.

Pre-Sale Consultation
Before you even consider staging, start here.
A Pre-Sale Consultation is the first step toward a successful sale. We walk through your home together and identify simple, strategic updates that make the biggest impact - helping your home feel current, stylish, and move-in ready. These thoughtful edits often make all the difference in the final sale price.

Vacant Staging
Every home tells a story, and our goal is to tell yours beautifully. Using our deep understanding of local buyers, current design trends, and real estate marketing, we furnish and style each home to create an aspirational lifestyle that buyers instantly connect with. The result? A warm, welcoming home that inspires stronger, faster offers.

Occupied Staging
Selling while living in your home can feel overwhelming - but it doesn’t have to. We help you highlight your home’s best features using what you already have, paired with light styling and expert guidance. From decluttering strategies to photo-ready finishing touches, we make sure your space looks inviting, balanced, and camera-ready while you stay comfortably at home.

Swift Haven Interiors was recommend to me by another realtor. She said it was the best staging she has ever seen. I've been in the business for 20 years and can now agree they created the best staging for my listing that I have ever seen. The communication and service was white glove! I will definitely recommend them to all of my clients!
