Time to spruce up my own home

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner 01293735 CA

As a real estate broker, I view homes everyday. I have big opinions on how homes need to be presented. I love my home and am very comfortable in the home, but with that said, it is far from decorator perfect. As my friend a decorator said  - most homes need some 'botox.' With that said, I do understand that the home you list to sell is not necessarily the same home you live in.

 I have lived in my home nearly 2 years and pretty much used furniture and accessories that were special to me int his home as I was downsizing. Now I am ready for some new colors, new furniture and sprucing up.

I am cleaning drawers and closets, painting some access walls, changing bedding and towels. It looks cheery, fresh, and happy.

I am committed to do this each few years. It is way easier and less expensive than moving and is fun to have a new look in my comfortable and cozy home.

I agree.  Every couple of years its nice to reach into all those crevices and dust away.

Hi Lori, I guess I really like our housekeeper, she may only be here 2 times a week but saves me time.  Now if my gardner would do a better job, but that is me.

Wow probably why I still live in my home I bought 20 years ago.
