“Working with Jennifer on staging a vacant listing was fantastic! She took care of every detail, including multiple visits to the property, securing the furnishings, setting everything up, and having it all removed. She was fast, professional, and I would use her again in a heartbeat.”
“As a real estate professional, I've worked with many home stagers over the years, but none have Jennifer's unique business proposition of using used and vintage materials. Her vision and passion are unmatched, and the results speak for themselves. Her ability to incorporate classic, timeless pieces not only elevated the aesthetic of my clients homes but also created a sense of warmth and authenticity that resonated with potential buyers. The impact is immediate and profound!”
“Jennifer did an excellent job helping me out in a pinch on a listing I needed staged with very little notice. I called her on a Friday and she had the house staged and photographed by Wednesday. The photos were beautiful and the home was under contract in less than a week! <3 Jennifer has a great eye for design and takes photos that always make your listing stand out and look as beautiful as it can!”

For Investors Who Want the Income Potential — Without the Full-Time Job
Many property owners have considered making the jump from traditional long-term rentals into furnished mid-term stays, Airbnb, or vacation rentals — but never had the time, experience, design direction, or platform knowledge to confidently pull it off.
This expanded service was created for busy investors who want a more hands-off path into the short-term rental world. Whether you’re converting an existing property, launching your first Airbnb, or improving an underperforming listing, Hail Mary can help bridge the gap between “I’ve been meaning to do this” and a fully guest-ready rental with great reviews and adequate revenue.
