Home Sellers, Create Some Excitement and Get Your Home Sold!

By
Home Stager with Staged First Impressions

 Selling your home?? Create some excitement, stir up some energy, get your house SOLD!!

 If you were a Realtor with a beautiful home to sell that was priced correctly, wouldn't you be EXCITED? Make the excitement happen! 

 If your house looks great and your agent is proud to show it to other agents and buyers, what happens is a "This-house-is going-to-sell-fast" attitude. The excitement is CONTAGIOUS! Buyers can feel this excitement and will be more apt to make an offer.

  1. First, repair and replace broken/ruined items.
  2. Have your home staged so it has curb appeal, and updated style.
  3. LISTEN TO YOUR AGENT'S ADVICE ON SETTING THE ASKING PRICE.
  4. Have top-notch listing photographs taken.
  5. Keep your home staged & clean so it shows well when a buyer comes to look.

 Statistics prove that the faster a home sells, the higher the selling price. So create some excitement about your home so that buyers want it NOW, and get your Realtor pumped up!

Thank you Christina.

I would never be caught dead on this roller coaster. It makes my stomach roll just looking at it! I always tell the kids that someone has to stay on the ground with the backpack, and that'll be Mum, ok?
