Professional Home Staging Advice: Don't Hide It! Fix It! - 06/27/10 02:14 PM
Professional home stagers do not cover up or hide damage, flaws, or problem issues - they suggest ways to resolve them. The seller's cost to resolve an issue is always less than the price reduction a potential buyer will want as compensation for the issue.
Via Janice Ankrett ASP (Janice Ankrett Home Staging):
If there is an issue with your home, don't hide it fix it.
If you can't afford to fix it, disclose the problem.
Your Realtor can help you with this.

New Hampshire Home Stager's Secret To Home Organization - 06/18/10 07:32 AM
For most people being "organized" is something to achieve, something they wish they were but never seem to make happen. Organizing your home can be overwhelming, and even seem impossible at times. Being more organized is one of those New Years resolutions that always seems to get broken.
Here's the thing about organization:
It's all about taking small bites. Divide and conquer.
You don't have to organize the whole house at once. Choose one room and then choose one small part of that room.
Start with a closet, or start with one desk drawer.
It doesn't matter where you start. Once you start, you build momentum.

Buyers Often Put Their Furnishings In The Same Place As The Seller - 06/17/10 02:31 PM
Why is furniture placement so important when showing your house for sale? Only ten percent of people can visualize your house differently than how they see it. If your furniture doesn't work, they assume theirs won't work. Janice wrote a great post on the subject...

Most Buyers only know what they see.
When a Buyer views a home they use the seller's furnishings as a reference point.
What they see helps them judge the size of the room.
They feel how the house flows as they make their way through each … (19 comments)

What's More Dangerous...The Sun Or Your Sunscreen? - 06/04/10 08:45 PM
Sunscreen is generally considered the best defense against skin cancer. What you may not know is that many sunscreens on the market are potentially more dangerous than actual exposure to the sun.
Risk 1 - INSUFFICIENT PROTECTION
A study published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology states "Sunscreens are widely advocated to protect against skin cancer but if they offer insufficient protection... they may inadvertently increase skin cancer risk."
SPF refers to how much longer you can be in the sun before you burn. If you usually burn after 30 minutes without sunscreen, then SPF 10 means you can be in the sun for ten times longer (10 x 30 = 300 minutes) which would be … (26 comments)
