My Biggest Staging Project Yet – Before & After

Presenting my biggest staging and remodeling project to date. We were getting this home ready to list for sale. Since this project was in Florida, we enlisted 3 realtors to interview, get feedback and ask what they would list it for. They all came back in the low $600,000’s and if you know me, I was bound and determined to break a record. This home hadn’t been updated since the early 2000’s with golds, reds, browns and lots of Tommy Bahama-type accessories.

Tips from the Pro – Easy Steps to Sell Your Home

Listing Your Home – Part 4 Uncluttering This is the most important step of all! Uncluttering doesnt include just your daily personal items but also your decorating style. For example, you like to cook and have your mixer, toaster oven, blender, spice rack, all readily available cluttering up your kitchen countertops. Another example would be if your style is Country French and you have bright yellow printed draperies, lots of floral pillows and blue & white Delft pottery adorning every tabletop.

Tips from the Pro – Easy Steps to Sell Your Home

Listing Your Home – Part 2 My approach works on all homes, in any market and any price range. Once you get the home in tip-top selling condition, you should be able to list it at the top of the market for similar properties that have sold in your neighborhood.
