house: "I like it! And could I make an appointment to have you come over to my new house?" - 08/26/08 09:46 PM
As a quick follow up to my previous blog, "What if I don't like it?" I just wanted to say that I spoke to both the Realtor and Seller today to find out their thoughts about the final staging. The Realtor has updated the photos on the web and I'm happy to report both Realtor and client really "liked it!". The seller even went as far as to ask whether or not I can do the same for their new residence, "Yes!" and I'll be making an appointment for a home staging consultation very soon.

house: Selling a house in a difficult location? Can home staging help? - 07/24/08 09:12 PM

house: Stage"ducational" Broker's Tour - 03/30/08 09:31 PM
Ever try to think of different ways to draw a crowd to your broker's tour on a new listing? Now I know food and drink are part of the usual suspects at these events, but how about in addtion to that, adding an informative "educational" portion of the tour? For those Realtors who have a Professional Home Stager on their team, if you already haven't asked, why not suggest to your Stager to come (provided of course they staged the property you've listed) and give a Q & A time for your Realtor colleagues who drop by? Believe it or not many Realtors still have questions
