David Cieslak

Owner/Principal Stylist, Signature Staging

As the owner and principal stylist of Signature Staging, David Cieslak is known for his excellence in taste, service and efficiency, and gives Realtors and their clients’ homes a competitive edge.

“We take a hands-on approach and cater our services to meet the needs of each individual client and listing,” he says. “We carry a lot of our own inventory, which over the years has set our listings apart from other staged listings, because it allows us to create a staged listing that looks lived-in and branded to the target buyer. We also have a great team of resources behind us that allows seamless services for our clients to make the staging process run smoothly.”

Cieslak is a Certified Staging Professional, the vice president of the Chicago Chapter of the Real Estate Staging Association (RESA), and his work has been featured on LX.TV OpenHouse, which airs on NBC. He was also a RESA Stager of the Year Nominee for the Midwest in 2012. In addition, Signature Staging has staged over $20 million in sold Chicago real estate so far in 2012.

As he continues to educate Realtors and home sellers on the benefits and importance of home staging, he proves he knows what he’s talking about by minimizing a listing’s time on the MLS. It is a goal of his to continue to add talented members to his team.

“I will continue to grow the company,” he says. “To develop and add more stagers to my team as we continue to evolve, much like sales agents on 
a brokerage team, is one of my main goals, as well as continue to educate about staging in Chicago and beyond.”
