EVERYBODY'S GOT A BASEMENT
IT JUST MAY NOT BE UNDERGROUND!
Back in New Jersey we had a basement.
My neighbors had a basement,
everybody I knew had a basement!
I also had a walk-in attic (great fun for kids). But of course my house was built in 1910!
Most of America is built on slabs,
and basements are a novelty in many areas.
I was touring a home, someplace, somewhere in Texas,
and it too,
was built on a slab,
but there was tons of storage space in this shack!
The very clever Realtor (see, I can write something nice about Realtors),
posted a sign on this huge walk-in closet
WELCOME TO
YOUR
TEXAS BASEMENT!
Now whenever I do a consultation and I stumble upon large storage space, or that unfinished attic space
that is always marketed as:
" you could certainly make this the exercise room, media room extra bath" -but we all know no one will ever do it.hehehe),
anyway, tag it with
(Your state, city, province, here) Basement!
It gets a chuckle everytime, and on these whirlwind ten-houses-in-two-hours-tours it makes for a stand-out feature!

Happy Staging Y'all
I'm going back to the 'basement' for a nap.......
