Laura S Baker is truly one of the very best Stagers I have ever seen and I highly recommend you get to know this SuperStar if you live in Southern Wisconsin--- and look at this blog post of hers-Laura "you like us you really like us" (ok poor imitation of Sally Field at Academy Awards)

 

A Sense of Panic Went Through Me When I Heard The Builder Say To Me,..

"Well,.. we still don't know if we are going to list this property or just try to sell it ourselves."

As you all know by nowI have a very strong opinion on this.  I learned a long time ago that I cannot learn every part of Rehabbing a home.  I don't have the time or the ability to do pluming, electrical etc.  The same holds true for Selling one of my properties.  I am not an expert in Real Estate law, nor do I want to be.  It truly takes a village to Rehab, build, or sell a house.

However, it really is none of my business how sellers choose to sell their home,...

OR IS IT?

Why do I feel obligated to express my concerns?  Because I have seen many a For Sale By Owner turn into a foreclosure.  Clearly as a stager I would benefit from a nice long rental on my furniture, accessories, artwork and greenery.  But that's not what I am in this business for.  I am in this business because I truly want to aid Sellers, builders, lenders and Realtors® in getting their home/property sold as fast as possible and save as much equity as possible. 

Caution;

This is not a debate about staging and it's pros & cons.

I think photo's speak for themselves.  ;-)

It is a plea for help!

F S B O vs. Qualified Realtor® 

Now, here is the big question,...

How do I very nicely say,...persuade,...beg,..(yeah, okay enough) to a builder or seller that I believe it is in their best interest to list their property with a qualified Realtor®?   

And,...

Where do I get the most unbiased current statistics to back up what I am trying to say?  Is there some great flier out there in Cyberland that I can download or websites that can help give me the information to pass on to them?  I am not a believer in reinventing the wheel.  If anyone of you can help me I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks as always!

Those photos really do speak for themselves.

It is hard to convince the client that they may not be making the best decision.
