About StayBeyond
Despite being the biggest decision anyone makes, the experience of buying and selling a home hasnt changed in decades. Buyers struggle to imagine themselves living in a home that is empty or in need of a refresh, which means it takes longer for vendors to sell, and often sale prices are dropped significantly. The whole experience needs shaking up for buyers and sellers alike, and that’s where we come in. StayBeyond is a team of design, property-management and hospitality professionals and we have made it our business to be the experts when it comes to designing homes that are made to sell.
Over the last five years we have transformed 150 properties and hosted over 60,000 guests (and counting) in our unique portfolio of homes.
From working closely with landlords in the rental market, it was clear that there was huge potential to bring our home transformation expertise to the for-sale market, and provide a service that makes sure vendors can get the most value out of their home sale.
We create spaces that are designed to be lived in; we inspire moments of ‘this feels like home’, ultimately helping vendors sell faster and for more. We are home experience experts.
