May's journey into the world of property staging didn't start with a mood board; it started with a vision for what a property could truly achieve. As a co-founder of Start Small Property Management, May spent years in the trenches of the Queensland real estate market. She saw firsthand the difference between a property that simply "existed" and one that "performed." She noticed that for property investors—particularly those in the high-yield rooming accommodation sector—the bridge between a renovation and a rent-ready asset was often a bridge too far. Investors were stressed, timelines were blowing out, and the "soul" of the home was often lost in the logistics.

She knew there was a better way.

May founded May's Property Staging to be the missing link. She combined her deep operational knowledge of property management with her natural eye for interior design. Her mission was clear: to create a "one-stop" sanctuary for investors where quality, speed, and style live under one roof.

May doesn't just "fill rooms" with furniture. She understands the specific nuances of co-living—how a room needs to feel private yet welcoming, and how a house needs to feel like a cohesive home to attract high-quality tenants.

Today, May is known for her signature 7-day transformation. She has turned staging into a science and styling into a superpower, helping Queensland investors maximize their returns without lifting a finger.

When you work with May, you aren't just getting a decorator; you're getting a partner who knows exactly what it takes to make a property succeed in today's competitive market.
