🎙️ Real Estate Revamp | Nikolina Stevens – Founder & Creative Director of MONO

In this episode of Real Estate Revamp, Rex and Chanell welcome Nikolina Stevens, Interior Designer, Senior Property Stylist, and founder of Mono.

Nikolina shares her journey from studying Interior Design and Architecture to finding her place in property styling, where she could combine creativity, construction knowledge, and real estate.

She discusses the impact great presentation can have on a property campaign, why styling helps buyers form an emotional connection, and how the right preparation can make a major difference in both strong and challenging markets.

The conversation also explores decluttering, depersonalising, the most important rooms to style, and why cutting corners on presentation can cost vendors more in the long run.

Nikolina also shares how strong relationships with agents have helped grow Mono, why she prefers to become part of the agent’s wider team, and how her business has expanded beyond furniture styling into trades, property preparation, and post-purchase interiors.

Looking ahead, she discusses AI, virtual staging, and why she believes physical styling and real human connection will remain central to the buyer experience.

This episode is packed with practical advice on property presentation, design, real estate marketing, and building a service-led business.
