Staging


"Staging" is the term used to describe the changes made in your home to prepare it for sale.  We all "live" in our homes just as many of us lounge in our pajamas when we're home.  However, you would not apply for a job or pay increase in your pajamas!  Likewise, your house won't recruit a new buyer or the best price in its pajamas!  Dressing your house in its best can sometimes be as simple as re-arranging furniture or cleaning windows.  E-mail today, if you'd like additional info on staging your home for sale.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Selling Your Home

 

Often selling a home involves buying another home at the same time.  Trying to make the two transactions occur simultaneously can be stressful.  A competent Realtor® can help relieve your stress by providing necessary forms, information, and a network of professionals to help coordinate the sale of your home with the purchase of your new home. 

Preparing your house for sale will involve a comparable market analysis, "point of sale" inspections, staging suggestions, disclosure forms, home warranty information, community research, figuring your estimated net proceeds, etc.  A pre-listing meeting with your Realtor® a few weeks before putting your house on the market gives you time to get inspections done and make any repairs or changes your agent might suggest.  Remember that suggestions your agent makes to improve your house are not insults to your home, but a professional's advice on how to get the best price in the shortest selling time for your home.  You will be dressing your house for sales success!
