Why all the fuss about home staging?    Because it sells houses faster and for more money.

How do you do it?   Call me!   Together we will make it happen.

Let my passion and talent for staging translate into dollars in your pocket. I am a serious home staging advocate and staging sells homes for my clients. I see good homes everyday that are not selling because the seller isn’t sure how, or isn’t able, to stage the home. Staging is little things, and sometimes big things, that maximize your homes potential. It is using decor to highlight the most attractive features, and minimize the least attractive features, of your home. It is using scent and light to draw a buyer in.

Its all about a little ‘magic’ in the air when you do get a chance to shine.

My eye, and passion, for this concept is an asset I can offer my clients, that not all agents can offer. I will do a walk-through evaluation with you and provide suggestions for making a buyer want to buy your house. As an agent I spend a lot of time walking through homes and really listening to what potential buyers are saying, and that has given me insight into how they see things.I can show you how to encourage them to start to envision their furniture in the rooms, their kids playing in the yard. As the owner, some suggestions may be a bit hard to understand, but if you know that it is all leading towards the end goal, of seeing that SOLD sign in the yard, it can be easier to get through. Buyers usually form an opinion of your house in seconds. It is crucial to send the right message quickly.

No one expects you to know how to stand out, and be the one a buyer will choose over all of the other options. You just need to know how to choose, and trust, the right agent.

If you want help evaluating your homes’ potential, contact me anytime. Don’t wait until it is ‘picture-perfect’ for me to help you. I can see past the signs of day to day living, and I come from a place of help, not judgement. When I sold my first home,  most of the things I worried about needing to do weren’t actually important. My Realtor saved me time and money by letting me know her professional opinion on the easiest things to do to get the most impact. She sold my house very quickly, and that further cemented my belief and opinion of staging.
