fresno: Selling Grandmas House in Oakhurst & Fresno areas, Series #1 - 04/01/11 10:44 AM
Selling Grandma's house is often difficult, even when selling to another grandma. 
Our Oakhurst and Fresno, California home staging company is frequently asked to do consultations and stagings at homes owned by seniors in Oakhurst, it's surrounding communities and in Fresno communities.   
 Here is what we often see:
Decades old floral and plaid furnishings and window coverings, #1 Outdated kitchens and baths with oak cabinets, brass fixtures and vinyl flooring. Outdated light fixtures. Carpeting in need of replacement. Wallpapered and paneled walls. Rooms cluttered with years of collectibles and memorabilia. Family photos everywhere. This blog post is #1 of a series addressing each … (28 comments)

fresno: When purging, take heed. - 11/28/10 03:35 AM
When purging, take heed. 
I'm in a purging mood.  First, the fabric excess.  Next, the linen closet.  Then, the business file cabinet.  BUT WAIT....
As I went through 6 years of files for clients (a tedious process) I came to realize that none of these should be tossed as I had planned. 
In these past two months I have had calls from clients from 4-5 years ago.  At that time, they were mainly ReDesign clients.  Now, some had become staging clients and some were continuing their redesign/decorating efforts. 
Luckily I remembered all of their homes and situations, but if I hadn't … (15 comments)

fresno: Sellers and Realtors: Staging Education, Part Three, Decluttering - 05/24/10 04:37 AM
Sellers and Realtors: Staging Education, Part Three,  Decluttering
Part of my role as a professional home stager is to educate Home Sellers and Real Estate Agents about the realities of Home Staging.  Watching home staging programs on TV frequently misleads viewers and does not often impart the details of how a professional stager works and how the staging process plays out.
In the Fresno, Clovis and Madera foothill and mountain communities the housing market remains a very strong Buyers market.  I have heard many stories of buyers getting homes for 40-50% of the value that was established for them 2-3 years ago.  Many sellers are underwater … (11 comments)

fresno: Get out of that damp, dreary, gray FOG. You need the sunshine! - 01/03/10 03:07 AM

Get out of that damp, dreary, gray FOG.  You need the sunshine!
Living in the Central San Joaquin Valley always brings the fog this time of year...but  you needn't endure it day after day.  Head to the local mountains and be warmed by the sunshine. Take your sunglasses out and use them. 
Take Highway 41 (southern route), Highway 120 (northern route) or Highway 140 (central route) and climb out of the gray and into the blue. 
 

If driving up Highway 41, you will usually break out of the fog at about elevation 1500' or where Road 200 (to North Fork) meets the highway.

Over the holidays, … (8 comments)
