A Ray of Light Within the Cloud

Filed under Home Staging

A beautiful home even before preparation for sale.

Fasten your seat belts.  What I am about to say may look like bragging–shocking, I know,–but bear with me as there is a point.  I got this email today:

Denise, thanks for all your advice! I put my house on the market on Thursday and on Monday the stock market went down 770 points, but even so, it’s sold. The new light fixtures, the new stainless appliances and the changes I made on the lower level really enhanced the space and made a great first impression. All good advice from you.  When it’s time to move, I’ll be calling you for more advice.

 So here is my point. You can’t travel too far into the world today without hearing how terrible the economy and the housing market are.  But they aren’t dead yet.  People are still out there, buying things–even houses. 

Especially ones that look good.  (Sorry, I couldn’t resist!)

    If the price is right the buyers will come, if the property is staged it will sell! Thanks for making my job easier! As Sharron’s Realtor, I was able to focus on the marketing of her home! It was a pleasure not to have to advise my client to declutter and clean, although Sharron has such fantastic taste this would never have been an issue. I hope we have an opportunity to work together, again!

    Thank you for the comment, and the affirmation. It really is common sense, isn’t it?

    [...] Yesterday I saw Sharron’s new digs for the first time.  (She sold her suburban townhouse in record time, remember?)  [...]
