🏡 CASE STUDY: “Literally, we arrived and there was nothing to do!”
How we delivered a truly turnkey furnishing experience for Vancouver property investors in Puerto Vallarta Mexico
From the first walkthru to the final Big Reveal, we are with you every step of the way.
At CRATE Interiors, our benchmark is always the Big Reveal — that unforgettable moment when owners walk into their new home for the first time - and realize there’s literally nothing left to do but enjoy it all.
That’s the compliment we hear most often from our clients — and it’s the gold standard we’ve designed our turnkey furnishing program to achieve. When we say truly turnkey, this is exactly what we mean:
🌴 The Big Reveal
After just two short months of design and planning, Brett and Chris arrived from Vancouver to take possession of their new rental property in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
Our team founder Debra greeted them for the Big Reveal, where every part of their new property was already styled, staged and move-in ready. Their reaction said it all:
“We literally arrived and there was nothing to do. We explored the area for a few days and then settled up on the roof deck to enjoy our amazing new views!”
From the first walk-through to that first sunset on the terrace, the CRATE Interiors team handled every last detail. Despite several very challenging quirks with the floor plan, room layout and electrical works, our crew was able to resolve all the functional details and create an inviting space that welcomes owners and their guests.
A truly turnkey solution helped Brett and Chris complete this unit in just 60 days.
🛋️ Done For You: The CRATE Turnkey Difference
No errands. No sourcing trips. No delivery chaos.
CRATE’s White Glove Installation means your new home is fully furnished, staged, cleaned and photographed before you arrive. For Brett and Chris who designed their entire project at a distance, that meant:
🛍️ No errands or store visits
🏗️ No palettes of housewares to unload
🧼 No cleanings or prep to coordinate
📸 Professionally staged photos completed pre-arrival
During their stay, they finalized their owners’ handbook, completed rental property onboarding and went fully LIVE with their listing before departure. In the most efficient way possible, they achieved it all with:
✅ Zero downtime
✅ Zero missed rental revenue
✅ Zero stress
From keys to cashflow, their dedicated CRATE Interiors designer Jill was their single point of contact — ensuring every appliance, furnishing, and decor element was expertly installed and ready for guest arrival.
Resolving the quirks and challenges of this floor plan with style and ultimate functionality
🛠️ Finetuning with Care
Even after the reveal, CRATE’s aftercare service ensures every detail is perfect.
When Brett and Chris offered a few small adjustments, our local install team was onsite within days — and in one single service call, they completed all owners refinements before their departure.
That’s the beauty of CRATE’s sequenced project management: seamless execution, responsive service, and total peace of mind for international owners who are designing at a distance.
