STAGED And Ready to Show; Beautiful New Craftsman in Portland Oregon

WOW...Thank you all for the lovely comments.  I will try to respond to those of you who had questions below. 

Mary Lou,

The rug is actually rented, I believe it came from Ashley Furniture.  I do carry rugs in my inventory, but I did not have anything that really worked for this house.  I am thankful the furniture company had something.

Morgan,

 The Master bedroom is huge.  You are correct to say that staging emphisizes the fact that this is a very spacious room and skillful  staging will always show room scale and size to potential buyers.

Maureen,

I am  blessed to have a very talented and creative team to make the "magic" happen.

Abbey,

Funny you should notice the big yellow fire hydrent.  The builder is a full time professional fire fighter and he builds one custom home a year with his investors.  He was thrilled to have the hydrent so close to one of his houses.  Unfortunately it is not always attractive to a buyer, although whoever buys this house will realize a significant discount to their fire insurance as a result of the close hydrant.

Mike,

This house is listed for $898,500.  One thing I could not show in the photos was the incredible mountain views from this property on a clear day.

 Tanya,

I will always try to stage with furnishings that are appealing to a broad range of buyers.  Of course if I were staging a downtown loft, the furnishings would be more specific to that type of lifestyle.  I think our team came together with a great design plan for this project.

Phyllis,

I do rent the large items for projects like this.  The company I use most in my area is Peoples Furniture.  They have a nice selection and treat stagers like VIP's.  I do have my own inventory which is also used througout this home as well.  I love the bedding also.  Don't you just  love Ross?

Kathy,

Thanks for the feature.  I'm honored.

Tony,

Come on over, Portland is a great place to live.  It was just voted #1 in the nation for green livability.

Ryan, Thanks for the compliments on my photos.  I am always working to take my photos from many angles and prospectives.  I also try to take a few during different times of the day for a varience in the lighting.

Amy, Staging does make a difference.  It is so important when marketing a home.

Sara, Thank you for your compliment.  I am currently working on a DVD to give to clients and prospects.  I am certainly including this home in it.

Christy, Keishia, Chrissie, Barbara, Thank you for your kind words, I hope this home sells quickly also.  I would really like to continue to work with this builder in the future.

Patricia, I love to show the before and afters.  Even in new construction, it makes such a difference.

Michelle and Lori H,  Thank You for your kind comments.  I had a month or two to prepare and shop for this project and I am pleased with how it all came together.  I hope it brings my client a buyer soon.

Vickie,  Thank you for your comments.  Please check your email for the answer to your question.

Kym, I love those colors together.  I used it throughout this house.  Thanks for the kind words.

Patty,  Thaks, I will try to post the stats once it sells.

Joan, Thank you, I try hard to take good photos.  I think they make the staging complete.
