Linden Creek Bolsters Its Presence in Florida

Linden Creek, a distinguished franchise known for luxury home staging and interior design, is thrilled to announce the opening of its new location in Sarasota, Florida. This expansion marks a significant milestone for the franchise, which is headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina, and aims to provide high-quality staging and design services to homeowners and real estate professionals in this coastal city and its surrounding areas, including Longboat Key, Bradenton, and Anna Maria.

The new Sarasota branch will offer tailored staging solutions that help to enhance property values and facilitate quicker sales by effectively showcasing the unique potential of each home. Linden Creek has established a reputation in the market where its staged properties typically sell 20% faster than the industry average. In 2024 alone, the firm effectively staged over $316 million in real estate transactions, thus setting a high standard in the home staging industry.

This Sarasota location will be the sixth branch for Linden Creek, following its successful expansions across North Carolina in cities like Durham, Charlotte, and Cary, along with a recent addition in Princeton, New Jersey. Alisa Sparks, the CEO and founder of Linden Creek, articulated her enthusiasm regarding this expansion, stating, "We are thrilled to bring Linden Creek's services to Florida. Sarasota's coastal charm and vibrant design community create the perfect environment for Linden Creek to thrive."

Leading the Sarasota venture is franchise partner Elaine Sheffrey, who brings over two decades of experience in the interior design industry. She managed her own design firm in the Midwest prior to shifting gears towards luxury design sales in Florida. Sheffrey's decision to franchise with Linden Creek was motivated by her desire to grow her business while gaining access to Linden Creek's established staging processes, curated inventory, and comprehensive operational support necessary for servicing the Sarasota market effectively.

The Sarasota location will feature the full suite of services offered by Linden Creek, focusing on home staging and interior design. Franchise partners like Sheffrey undergo extensive training, benefit from ongoing business and marketing support, and gain access to premium inventory products via The Shoppe—Linden Creek’s e-commerce platform that offers a selection of furniture, lighting, and home décor.

Entering the market as a new franchise requires a significant investment ranging from $195,000 to $304,000, and interested individuals can explore more by viewing the franchise brochure online at Linden Creek’s official website.

Since its inception in 2017, Linden Creek has transformed from a personal passion project by Alisa Sparks working in her garage into an impressive seven-figure, award-winning brand. Within just 14 months of launching its franchise program, Linden Creek has rapidly gained trust and recognition in the ever-evolving home staging industry. As the company continues to grow, the commitment to creating homes that sell faster and for higher prices remains at the forefront of its operations, making it a compelling choice for real estate professionals and homeowners alike.
