preparing your home for sale: Is your home out of focus? Staging in Burlington
- 03/20/16 06:05 AM
As a Burlington Home Stager, one of the hardest concepts to get across to a client is how the 'Focus' of their home has to change. When you are living in a space, the Focus of the home is on you, the owner, and your needs. However, when you become a Seller, the Focus of the home must change to that of the Buyer.

Buyers are looking … (22 comments)
preparing your home for sale: Updating vs Renovating your home. Staging in Burlington
- 02/03/16 01:05 AM
You're thinking of putting your home on the market in the Spring. Your home is getting older. Some of the features look dated now.

Some don't understand the process so resist until they hear the reasoning behind the suggestions. Others feel they know it all, their home is perfect and a consult is a waste of time.

preparing your home for sale: Selling Your House Requires Vision - Seeing Is Believing!
- 09/23/13 01:40 AM
As Sharon Tara says 'what a buyer sees is what a buyer believes.' Those visual messages are what evokes that emotional attachment from the buyer. The buyer's perspective is their reality for the short time they are in a home. Selling your New Hampshire house requires vision.....A BUYER'S VISION. In their search for a new home, buyers are most influenced by visual appearance. Yes, location and price are used to narrow the field, but it's what they visually see on the MLS and what they visually see at showings that determine which seller will receive their offer. How well your house is … (10 comments)
