My Canton Client called today..."SOLD!!!!"

By
Home Stager with ALR Home Staging and Showcasing, LLC

Although the closing is scheduled for December 10, my client informed me today that her house "FINALLY SOLD!" 

Her home had been on the market since March when she called me in August.  She'd had a few close calls but no official offers.  I was hired to do a Consultation Report, with which she used my suggestions to do the staging herself, with me being a phone call/email away for help.  I did stop in to visit to see how she was making out with her 'staging' during the process.  It took them about a month to get everything updated and changed accordingly.

With her 'staging' officially completed in the end of September, and with her new REA taking over the listing around the same time, the house sold in less than 2 months, after having already sat with nothing for almost 7 months! 

...PS:  She's asked me to come and arrange her new house with her, as they are downsizing and will need help with placement in the smaller home!  YAY!

Feels good doesn't it? I'm sure you are very pleased. Two months can feel like an eternity, but when you realize how long it was on the market prior to staging & this is not a particularly busy time of year... shows you know what you are doing!

Hi Kathy, Thank you! Hi Melissa, it's funny, I was just thinking about her yesterday and had her on my 'to do' list to follow up to check on how things were going...so weird to hear from her first thing this morning! UM, yes, it did feel like an eternity...wish it would have been one of those 'sold in 10 days' deals, but all things considered, it's pretty good! Thank you for commenting! =)

HI Maureen,  Thanks for commenting.  I have a few b&a's from when I was there doing the consult as we moved a few things on the spot...I'll see if there's anything really worthwhile sharing.  Yes, I'm hoping to get a good testimonial from her.
