They wallpapered the ceiling - 09/16/09 07:41 PM
 

We've posted about wall paper before and I hoping that we have some new solutions to this "trendy" problem.
This rooms appears to be the worst of the several rooms that I have to renovate.
Any suggestions?   In the past I've used the downy and the scoring of the paper before steaming and neither has worked very well

Stage-Show-Sell..SOLD in two weeks .Example #2 Birmingham - 09/12/09 10:24 PM
My realtor is real happy with Stage-Show-Sell...Example #2 Birmingham  
This home has been on the market, priced was to high, for 18 months.  The realtor that chooses to work with me :-) had the seller stage the home with, of course, Stage-Show-Sell and priced the home where it needed to be.
Price, Location and Condition is a winning combination that resulted in an offer in the first two weeks.

The vacant empty bath looked cold.  It just didn't pop at all

 
 
 
Bath is very inviting now.   The separate glass shower was a real treat for the … (7 comments)

Bye Bye Booties. I hate to see you go ..Bye Bye Booties - 09/09/09 10:07 PM
Bye Bye Booties.  I hate to see your go Bye Bye Booties
 
Little play on words here.  It came to mind after watching this weeks episode of Mad Men.   Love that shoe.
 
I've always put a basket of Blue Booties (shoe condoms) for those rainy/snowy days.  We hate to see the hard word that we've done go bad with wet shoes.
 
Now with all the Asian families looking for properties in our areas I thought I would try something a little different.    They like to take their shoes off at the door and slip into slippers.

Stage-Show-Sell..Sold .Example #1 Royal Oak - 09/07/09 02:09 PM
 
 
My realtor is real happy with Stage-Show-Sell...Example #1   Royal Oak
Like many stagers I've been working on a good relationship with a realtor.  After several months and many successful sales he BELIEVES
He knew that this house would have sold for tens of thousand less without the work of Stage-Show-Sell.
We had an offer within a couple of weeks, which un-fortunately fell apart when the buyer lost his job just before closing.
The home continued to receive great attention from the buying public and had another offer shortly.

This post has had many comments.  A lot of them quite negative about stagers.

The point is that it really bothers agents that we get paid when we do a  project.  Some of us do creative financing and even get paid at closing.
The issue really is Why Don't Agents Demand to be paid at least partially at listing?
Why do agents take over price listings and then complain that they are not selling?
Or that the house is in terrible condition and they put bad photos on the MLS?
Agents you work hard.  Really hard at getting listing … (13 comments)
