~Perception Sells! You only get one chance for a First Impression~

The Way We Market our Homes is Not the Way We Live In Our Homes...

 Your hand made area rugs or the Beautiful hardwood flooring?

Your expensive collectibles or The Wonderful Built In Bookshelves?

Your colorful oil painting hanging on the wall or the crown and chair moldings?

Your custom window coverings that match your bedding/ accessories or the fabulous view of your nicely landscaped backyard?

Therefore LESS IS MORE!

Prospective Buyers do not want to see a home through the eyes of the current owner,

they need to be able to see the home through their own eyes and to visualize how the home will meet their own unique needs and lifestyles. In Essence, We must Appeal to the Buyer's perception of themselves, getting them to envision placing their own belongings in the home and being able to see the value, purpose and possibilities that each individual room could have. Perhaps an Unfinished storage room off of the Master could be finished and used as a Nursery, Sitting Room or Exercise Room- Perhaps the Formal Living Room could be used as a Home Office or the Kids playroom a 5th Bedroom-

Curb to Curb- Inside and Out-
Through Cleaning, Decluttering and Depersonalizing, Property Staging can transform your Home so that there are no distractions- "eye candy"- for the Buyers while touring your home... Wherever a Buyer's Eye rests, a Sale Begins or Ends- Clutter eats Equity; studies have shown that every 15 seconds a Buyer makes a decision whether or not to take another step---

By taking personality out of your home & introducing neutrality,

We will create an "I Want this Home" factor not a

"Wow, I like (or don't like) their things" factor...


Prospective Buyers must be able to see themselves living in the Home the first time they preview the Home, otherwise they will schedule a second showing and won't buy until they can justify the purchase price through the negotiation process. A Property is only worth what a buyer will pay for it...and the market tends to control the price of homes dependent on how long they are on the market- therefore your home must stand out among the others!

How Much does a Home Staging cost? It varies depending on a number of factors,

but will more than likely cost less than your first price reduction-

 Staging- produces a properly prepared home-

reduces the risk of financial losses and can help you avoid Price Reductions, Sell Faster and NET you top dollar!!!
