home staging services: Home Staging now for sale in the future - a new trend - 04/09/10 08:22 AM
I admit to being delinquent about writing a blog...Somehow, life always gets in the way LOL.
But I have been thinking about new markets and have noticed a new and exciting trend in the last six months; I am approached on a regular basis by people who are THINKING of selling in the next year or two.  They are typically a Baby boomer generation - in their 50s, the kids left or are about to leave the house and they are considering a different lifestyle.  Not wanting to take care of a big house, these couples are looking into other options … (18 comments)

home staging services: A practice session Home staging - 03/08/09 09:15 PM
As part of my Home Staging training program, I organize practice session at a client's home.  As each home is different, each staging project is different as well.  We have staged vacant homes as well as performed a minor miracle on a lived-in home and all that in about 4 hours!
I want to share some projects my classes worked on, as I am very proud of the results.
The first one is a vacant condominium in downtown Montreal, which is listed for $300K.  I prepared everything in advance by renting the appropriate furniture and bringing the accessories in before the staging … (7 comments)

I am not sure why but I am being asked to stage quite a few vacant properties in the Montreal (Quebec)  area these days.  I think I am becoming the Vacant Property specialist! LOL
We all know that vacant properties are even harder to sell, as the defects on walls, floors and ceilings stand out more and over 90% of people are unable to visualize the empty space and what it MIGHT look like furnished...
I used to be scared of these phone calls for several reasons.  I was afraid to make a mistake -miscalculate the amount of furniture required, choose the … (12 comments)

home staging services: Home Stager Training programs galore! - 10/12/08 05:51 PM
Hello,
I know,  I have been delinquent lately, too busy with everyday running of a Home Staging business (and travelling to France to teach - poor me LOL).
But there is a topic that has been on my mind for a while now and that is the training programs available out on the market as well as the number of Home Staging graduates in the market.
 Home Staging services in Quebec are  on the rise !  As the general awareness of the concept is spreading, the demand for Home Staging is increasing and more sellers and realtors are open to the idea.

home staging services: Home staging starts with top quality pictures (Part 1) - 11/15/07 07:28 PM
Home Staging starts with good quality real estate portfolio.
Since the Internet became readily available in North America, more and more home buyers use the Web to shop for properties and select the ones they want to visit.  The latest statistics indicate that over 85% of the potential buyers for YOUR home will use your pictures to make a decision whether to visit  based on what they see.  So, if your pictures are out of focus, blurry or unclear, you'll likely lose many of those potential visitors....
One important question to consider for best quality photographs is the number of megapixels your digital … (0 comments)
