home staging atlanta: Sharp decline in metro Atlanta home sales-- But I CAN HELP! - 09/14/10 09:55 AM
Okay, I know this newspaper article is doom and gloom about the real estate market here in Atlanta, but you can check out my stats at http://www.peachtreehomestaging.com/ and see that home staging serivces can really help cut that market time!

home staging atlanta: THIS IS WHAT IT'S ABOUT! - 06/14/10 08:43 AM
THIS IS WHAT IT'S ABOUT!
Hey, Hey, Hey! Remember this post from a week ago?
Creating an Appetizing Presentation!
UNDER CONTRACT IN 10 DAYS -- 98.6% OF ASKING PRICE!
THIS IS WHAT IT'S ABOUT!
So much is to be said about having the right Realtor, the right price, and a home stager!
I am particularly proud of this project because this client researched Peachtree Home Staging and selected our company to home stage this vacant home from our Internet presence and Web site.
But here's the interesting part -- they did not have a Realtor in mind. Searching for a Realtor … (10 comments)

home staging atlanta: Creating an Appetizing Presentation - 06/07/10 07:57 AM
Creating an Appetizing Presentation . . .
A long time ago I did a post relating staging to a master "STAGING" chef.
"Professionally staging a vacant home for sale, to me, is like a Chef that has exceptional skills and demonstrates the ability to select the correct utensils necessary along with the freshest ingredients and hand picked spices to create an exquisite meal that appeals to the majority of palettes."
"Professionally re-designing an occupied home for sale, is like a Chef that has exceptional skills and demonstrates the ability to work with inferior, but adequate utensils, average canned goods and the … (17 comments)

home staging atlanta: My Atlanta Home Staging Oxymoron! - 03/13/10 09:59 AM
My Atlanta Home Staging Oxymoron!
This upcoming spring Real Estate market has put daily home staging projects on to Peachtree Home Staging's busy calendar. The variety of projects has been phenomenal, confirming that every home, every seller and every Realtor requires unique attention for their specific presentation needs.
Often we think of home staging as formulating the proper look of a vacant home by bringing in furniture and accessories. Or we think of occupied home staging;helping a seller declutter, putting things in storage and then making the right presentation working with the remainder of the home sellers furnishings and accessories.
This season we are … (24 comments)

This is a great open floor plan Peachtree Home Staging was selected to home stage this past week in the metro Atlanta suburbs. We did key room staging that included the living room, dining room, the two story family room, kitchen and breakfast room, the master bedroom, and all the baths.
Here is the e-mail comment I received from the home seller once the job was completed:
"Karen, the house looks great. It is really exciting to see the major transformation the furniture and accessories make. You have far exceeded our expectations!"

home staging atlanta: Count Down for Old Year's Resolutions - 12/16/09 02:27 PM
Yep -- you heard me! OLD Year's Resolutions.
I can't possibly begin to construct my 2010 New Year's Resolutions knowing full well I haven't yet accomplished my 2009 New Year's resolutions.
UGLY items from the 2009 List

home staging atlanta: I am giving up and moving on! - 12/07/09 08:27 AM
YES, I am giving up and moving on!
It's true -- and I am hoping it's for the best. It is an expensive decision to say the least.
I have given up what's made so many memories, giving up on what is responsible for my huge home staging portfolio.
YES, I have ditched my old Minolta camera from 2002 (Minolta doesn't even make cameras any more!)
I just purchased a new wide angle lens Camera SLR NIKON D5000. I am moving on with my photography in order to showcase my HOME STAGING!
This camera has my name all over it, and I … (34 comments)

home staging atlanta: To Be Or Not To Be -- That is the Question! - 09/04/09 05:32 PM
To Be (a home stager) Or Not To Be (a home stager) -- That is the Question!
Having been a Realtor for 9 years, my research and decision to enter the home staging industry made perfect sense for me three years ago, and my homework into starting a home staging business proved to be an excellent decision for me. All the right components were there. I do not regret starting Peachtree Home Staging and the investment I have made to make my business successful.
I stumbled on this public blog through my Google alerts for "Atlanta Home Staging". I don't know the person who … (18 comments)

home staging atlanta: Hey, float my boat, flip my skirt, whatever, I wanna be french! - 10/14/08 11:32 PM
I love, absolutely love, VIGNETTES. This is a post I have been wanting to do for quite some time and it isn't new news -- just fun news! I've been having fun lately and have been blessed with a lot of fun staging opportunities. During this time I have been collecting vignettes for my web site. I always provide these to RE's and sellers as they are great for their use as well.
I am certainly not a photogragher, but I gotta admitt, they do make me warm and fussy! I am smiling!

home staging atlanta: Home Staging Extreme! - 10/02/08 08:51 AM
I am so excited about what is happening in the home staging industry. Coming from a Real Estate background, most all of my early-on posts when first joining Active Rain were dedicated to empowering Realtors and Home sellers on the value of home staging.
Well, by George, I think they've got it!
The last week in September was exceptional for me and Peachtree Home Staging. We staged 2 vacants that really makes the point!
First we staged a small renovated home in Atlanta that's listing for $150,000 -- just precious
Then we … (19 comments)

home staging atlanta: Great Press -- Write it Right! - 10/01/08 03:59 PM
I had the pleasure of staging a vacant vacation home "to stay" for Peter Bilodeau and his wife Barbara.
Peter has 32 years in the newspaper industry and was with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution for many years. Now Peter spends his time as a free lance writer. Peter recently wrote the article below that is being published in late October here in a local magazine.
But first, please note today's featured vocabulary home staging word: teeming
teeming -- abounding or swarming with something

home staging atlanta: Straight from the "house's" mouth - 09/22/08 08:43 PM
"All the house can be a stage" is the title of an article the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC) published in their weekend "HOME FINDER" section a week ago.
The author, Mary Booth Thomas, did not interview home stagers for input, nor did she interview REALTORS for validation of Atlanta home staging expertise.
Her validation as to the value of home staging came straight from the house's horse's mouth!
Ms. Thomas interviewed home sellers regarding their take on home staging in the Atlanta market. She asked questions about the value of their home staging experience for an occupied home.

home staging atlanta: Home Staging the Interior Decorating - 07/30/08 09:09 AM
I recently had the pleasure of assisting a Realtor, Leigh Steele with Prudential Georgia Realty in preparing a model home in Walton County, Georgia for an MLS video. I found the construction and attention to detail quite impressive; not to mention the prices. These incredible homes are starting in the $190's, and they have a lot to offer for that price!
This was a fun day and a first time experience for me. The model home Leigh took me to to prep for the video had already been furnished and accessorized by an Interior Designer. The model is heavy in furnishing and although, … (6 comments)
