Arthur McLaughlin & Associates Inc

Exceptional staging décor! Reginald Baird got us a cash offer and a 7 day close!

Best review I can give here is that Reginald Baird from Arthur McLaughlin staged my home so well, that I fell in love with it all over again and decided not to sell! Seriously, I came home after the staging and had a HGTV moment. I was breathless! Team was awesome to work with also.

I own a home staging company serving San Francisco, Marin County and the Wine Country… I am not writing this review to promote my business so it shall remain un-​named…
I am writing this to say that the lush, multi-​layered, beautiful projects produced by this company have and, will continue, to provide me with inspiration both in my professional and personal life…
Most home staging projects are generic, sterile, and run-​of-​the-​mill affairs with a rather cheap rental furniture sensibility…
Now I will say that many of Arthur McLaughlin and Associates projects have the advantage of taking place in rooms with wonderful architectural detailing and superior appointments… but I know that if you placed their quality inventory in a «Plain White Box» interior you would end up with a beautiful room…

Here in the somewhat faraway Land of The East Bay we didn’t have experience with Arthur McLaughlin. We do now! I had a truly historic and particular home which required extraordianry skill and aptitude. They did a stunning job, paid attention to every detail, and provided a totally satisfying experience. Thank you Reginald. Thank you Kevin.

My vocabulary lacks adequate superlatives to describe our experience with Reginald, Jeff, and team. They were consummately professional in staging our San Francisco home, paid meticulous attention to every detail, and were unfailingly personable and reliable. Their savviness about the market and their unmatched ability to enhance every feature of our house — have I mentioned that the place looked spectacular from top to bottom? — played a huge role in generating a lot of buzz and attracting offers substantially above asking price.
It was truly a privilege to work with them.

AWESOME!!! Worked with Reginald Baird a few times through Arthur McLaughlin & Associates and he’s great! He’s extremely professional — always on time — makes the whole process painless and easy. One piece of my business I don’t have to worry about.
Been in the business for over 20 years and he’s the best I’ve had — truly the best of the best. He always does a phenomenal job — makes every place look extraordinary — really can’t say enough about his skills.
Most of all, it benefits my clients and gives them a peace of mind that their place looks it’s best — I can’t overstate how it helps my clients.

These guys are terrific and extremely professional. Reg in particular is delightful to work with but the whole team is polite, organized and patient with busy people who are trying to sell their home. Strongly recommend.

We used Reginald with Arthur McLaughlin to stage our home for sale. Reginald took care of the whole process of arranging what needed to be done (i.e. painting, staging) to make the house look the best it could be. I was amazed at how beautiful the house looked, and wished only that I had decorated the home like that when we lived there!
Reginald met with me and walked me through the items that could stay (which we tagged), the rest went into storage. We were out of town when the house was staged, and the sale happened very quickly, so that when we returned the house was de-​staged two days later. The de-​staging process happened while I was in the house, and a whole crew worked to remove items carefully and they were mindful of the space we were using and worked around us. They were polite and professional. I am not aware as to how they compare in terms of pricing, but they were worth it.

I have had such a fantastic experience with Arthur McLaughlin and his company, Arthur McLaughlin & Associates, and have worked with them for many years. Arthur first helped me in my last home and I felt very comfortable with him and his company. I was really impressed with the end-​result and specifically felt his color choices were quite spectacular.
When I recently decided to relocate and find a larger home, I knew I would enlist Arthur’s help again. My new residence in Tampa, Florida, is about twice the size of my last estate and the grounds are sprawling in comparison. Arthur was vital in many aspects of my relocation, from finding and approving my residence, to approving product selections and implementing his wonderful floor plan. Again, Arthur’s color selection amazingly fit my personality to the tee. I’m just now completing the renovation of the new residence and every aspect of Arthur’s work is perfect, down to the placement of each piece of furniture and artwork.
Arthur has also worked with one of my best friends, completing her master bedroom wing addition with exterior kitchen, and front entry addition. The end-​result was very impressive and she also sings his praises.
My home in Tampa is somewhat out of the way for Arthur, who does most of his work in the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles, but he is always so accommodating and is able to visit me regularly when he’s working with clients in Miami.
I highly recommend Arthur McLaughlin & Associates and will use their services again and again on my future interior design projects. \

Recently stumbled upon a staging that the team had put together at the Infinity (high rise luxury apartment), and it was professional, luxurious, and unique. The Infinity is a tough complex to stage for because the units are oddly shaped and the windows are curved. In my 4 years of looking at units, I’ve never seen one that had been staged in this manner, and the design team did a superb job [I believe Reginald led this effort]. I had seen this unit prior to the staging, and it was night and day vs the result. I’ve never used the company’s services, but I would surely consider them to the extent I ever needed design services.

And now after moving into the place… we discover that the stagers from Arthur McLaughlin left the house in bad shape.
— Handprints on walls.
— Holes in walls roughly covered over with putty.
— And the kicker… they left NO PAINT at all (really? you were going to do something useful with that last half-​gallon???), so we can’t cover over the mess on the walls.
I guess we’ll try to paint match to cover this over… but sheesh. Professional job? NOT. Half-​assed? YES.

Arthur McLaughlin did such exceptional staging work, we sold in under a week! Their work is elevated and tasteful and Reginald was a delight to work with.

As an SF Realtor, we stage every listing. If it’s being lived in, we do a partial stage. Arthur McLaughlin is always one of the bids we get!
Primarily working with Reginald, who is our contact person from start to finish, we are always happy. Reg is responsive, organized, considerate, sets realistic timelines, and fulfills expectations. All of those things are important, but what’s MOST impressive about Reg and his team is his design abilities! It’s amazing the way he’s transformed the spaces we’ve sold.
We are very grateful to have found Arthur McLaughlin and more specifically, Reginald.

I used Arthur and his team to stage my home in Bernal Heights. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or results. Make the call, write the check and let him do his thing. I credit his work with the house selling super fast and getting way over asking price. It was a total pleasure to work with someone who is just so very good at what they do. He delivered more the promised. He was the most expensive but it was so worth it. I got the extra spent back 100 fold. I could go on and on, I can’t say enough good things about this company.

This was my first staging experience. We found them from our agent. It was his best recommendation of the entire sales process.
Arthur did a quick walk through of our place, took notes and pictures, and quickly provided an estimate the next day. He was polite and professional. Painless.
When we were ready, the staging team arrived and was all business. I let them in and then left them to their jobs. When I came home from work, the place was staged perfectly and very much made our condo look its best.
There was never an issue with them. They promptly answered emails and went above and beyond when I needed something from them.
Highly recommended.

Arthur helped us pull off a 20,000 square foot staging job at the last minute and did an incredible job. He saved the day and our non-​profit Dance Out Diabetes launch! (Another staging company left us in the lurch. Arthur swooped in to make life right with the world!)
If you want someone with talent, that will step up to the plate when you need someone the most, call Arthur!

Im pissed right now because you can’t give negative stars. If you could I definately would. This inconsiderate person treats his customers terribly. His furniture is old and ugly. He throws some pillows on an ugly couch and calls it interior design. I’ve seen children with better taste then him. There are way better stagers than him for half the price. It should be illegal what he’s doing, charging so much for his crap of a staging job.

I had a property recently staged by Arthur McLaughlin because I heard of really good reviews from Unilocal and his website blew me away. In reality his work is decent, but I should’ve listened to my agent and went with Ken Fulk. My property sold in 60 days, which isn’t bad.
This company is very unprofessional and I would not recommend this company to anyone who needs a home staging. They use cheap items that looked like the pulled from a second hand shop or IKEA. I notice the black frames were scratched and were painted in a BLACK MAGIC market to hide the scratches.
What blew me away is the staging staff. They were very unprofessional and I suspect that this company hires illegals workers. When the companies moving truck pulled up to my house, they opened the back and there were 8 non english speaking hispanics that were sitting in the back. I thought that workers sitting in back of the moving truck is illegal?
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY FOR INTERIOR DESIGN OR HOME STAGING!

Arthur staged my 2 bedroom SOMA loft for sale. He did a great job, and stayed under budget. I’d use him again, although his painting subcontractor was pretty expensive. The overall design was chic and elegant, and the property sold in one day. No complaints there, for sure!
