INCREASE IN CLOSED LISTINGS

<7 days

AVG. TIME TO CLOSING POST-STAGING

THE CHALLENGE

Keller Williams and The Thompson Group work with a portfolio of preferred commercial real estate investors seeking to maximize return on their properties before sale. Their challenge was consistent: properties were sitting on the market longer than necessary and closing below their potential ceiling. Investors needed a design partner who could assess each property through a market-value lens, not just an aesthetic one, and execute staging decisions that would directly influence buyer behavior and final sale price.

THE SOLUTION

H&P delivered a multi-property pre-construction consultation and staging program grounded in market research. For each property, H&P evaluated floor plan decisions to ensure investments would yield the highest possible return, then executed staging scopes designed to position the property at the top of its competitive set. The program was designed for repeatability across the client's investor portfolio, enabling consistent quality and turnaround across multiple simultaneous listings.

GOVERNMENT RELEVANCE

Demonstrates H&P's ability to deliver measurable performance improvements through space planning in occupied, operational environments, a skillset directly applicable to government office reconfigurations, base facility optimization, and any engagement where disruption to ongoing operations must be minimized.

FOOD SERVICE & HOSPITALITY

Carmelo's Pizza

FULL INTERIOR GUT RENOVATION · ACCELERATED TIMELINE

THE CHALLENGE

Carmelo's Pizza was an established neighborhood restaurant with a loyal customer base, recently acquired by new ownership. The space was extremely dated and needed a full interior overhaul to attract new foot traffic and signal a fresh chapter to the community. The critical constraint: the new owners could not afford an extended closure. The renovation had to be executed rapidly, without severing the restaurant's identity as a neighborhood anchor or alienating the regulars who made it viable in the first place.

THE SOLUTION

H&P led full concept design and execution management for a complete gut renovation, deliberately balancing the modernization the new owners needed with the neighborhood character the existing customer base valued. H&P directed the contractor team through execution, managing the design intent in the field to ensure the final result matched the approved concept. The renovation was scoped and sequenced to minimize closure time, with every design decision made in service of both speed and the dual audience the space needed to serve.
