real estate staging: ZZZ'S . . . is your house so BORING that it puts Buyers to Sleep? - 04/27/10 10:10 AM
ZZZ'S . . . is your house so BORING that it puts Buyers to Sleep?
by Jennie Norris, ASP Master, IAHSP President, Owner, Sensational Home Staging

In the words of the immortal Ella Fitzgerald . . . "It don't mean a thing if you ain't got that swing. . ."
When it comes to Selling your house . . . we need to change the words to:  "It don't mean a thing if you ain't got that ZING!"
How about . . . "Your phone just won't ring without Buyer Zing!"
Have you ever walked into a house and there … (3 comments)

real estate staging: The 5 Senses of Staging a House – a Sensible and Sensational Idea! - 04/19/10 01:31 PM

I read something recently that caught my attention as it talked about how our 5 senses - SIGHT, SMELL, TOUCH, HEARING, TASTE - engage as we look at houses, or rather how they don't engage if the seller has not deliberately put things out to make that happen or has not bothered to prepare their house for sale.
I thought about this - and as a professional Home Stager - I realized this is what I do every time I work with a Seller and on a house to Stage it for sale.    But there is an imbalance with some … (0 comments)

real estate staging: Sensational Home Staging Project! and NO Rental or Buying of items! How is that possible? - 04/09/10 04:40 AM
Another Sensationally Staged house - for sale . . . and instead of having the Seller "remove everything and bring in all brand new stuff" - which really requires little creativity - we used what the Seller had in their house - and our ideas.

In today's market - many sellers cannot afford to "spend" thousands of dollars to "stage" their house - and I put the word in quotes on purpose - because when a Seller is told to get rid of their … (2 comments)

real estate staging: 6 UPLIFTING TIPS to Get Your House Staged & SOLD by Jennie Norris, ASP Master, IAHSP President, Owner Sensational Home Staging - 02/15/10 02:16 PM
6 UPLIFTING TIPS to Get Your House STAGED and SOLD
By Jennie Norris, ASP Master, IAHSP®
Owner, Sensational Home Staging - serving the Greater Denver region



1. If it's cluttered - PACK IT UP
Clutter is a natural part of life and most of us do our best to stay on top of it. Things on surfaces, floors, walls, and in our yards - are all items we enjoy or have "plans for" - and that is life. However, when selling a house - the clutter that is part of daily lives actually cuts into our equity. As … (9 comments)

real estate staging: If Home Staging has gone Main STREAM why are so many Houses still up the CREEK without a paddle? - 01/06/10 08:31 AM

If Home Staging has gone Main STREAM why are so many Sellers still up the CREEK without a paddle? Home Staging has gone Main STREAM - and yet there are still many houses that are not Staged and listed for sale. WHY? Based on my experience, it can only be one of two reasons. 1. The Seller does not believe Staging will work to help them get the best price in the shortest time.2. The Seller has not been told the honest truth about their house. I know that some people would think "MONEY" - and yet when a Seller understands … (7 comments)

real estate staging: "Your Job Sound So Fun" - The Reality Behind a Home Staging Career - 09/16/09 06:22 PM
If I have heard that once, I have heard it 100 times. "Your job sounds so fun!" and to be fair, I suppose from the outside looking in, it DOES seem like a "fun job."  Most recently as I was boarding a plane the flight attendant spied my carry on that promotes my Staging business and exclaimed how fun my job must be . . .What the public sees is the transformation of a house - room by room - where we use creativity and skill to enhance what the public sees when buying a house.

real estate staging: Virtual Staging - Selling a House is NOT the Time to Air Brush for Perfection - 08/11/09 04:48 PM
  Virtual Staging - Selling a House is not the Time to Air Brush for Perfection by Jennie Norris, ASP Master, IAHSP PresidentIn the world of fashion, models, Hollywood, and the media - much of what we see is not real. Lighting, clever stylists, and make-up can drastically alter the appearance of the model or subject. Then add in the common practice used in print media of air-brushing out flaws, and the person that is featured in the photo spread often does not resemble that at all in real life. In recent years, we have all read or seen actresses criticizing … (6 comments)

real estate staging: The Art of Appreciation - 07/21/09 05:33 AM
“Thank you.” Two simple words that hold the power to elevate another’s attitude and validate a relationship.
Why don’t we hear these words more often? When my children were little, it was one of the first things I taught them - to be appreciative and say, “Thank you,” when someone did something for them or gave them something.
It is something that has to be taught as it is not an automatic, and it is something that shows good manners from childhood forward.
Why then as we enter the business world, does it seem so rare to receive a “Thank you” … (2 comments)

real estate staging: Sellers - Are You Ready for Your Close Up? - By Jennie Norris, ASPM, IAHSP - 07/09/09 07:32 AM

"All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up" - Gloria Swanson, Sunset Boulevard, circa 1940.
Those famous words helped immortalize the great Cecil B. DeMille.  And it got me thinking.  How many times have you had photos taken of yourself where you really were not prepared for that "close-up?"  Or worse, been on television with a camera inches from your face showing every pore?  It reminds me that there is nothing like preparation - lighting, makeup, positioning - that allows us to take that great photo or be on television without fear of looking "bad."
When applied to Home … (2 comments)
