From a Home, To a House, To a Product.
The way a homeowner lives and decorates their home is very different from the way it should be marketed. Well presented homes spend 78% less time on the market. The cost to prepare the home up front, and maximize the potential, is less than the cost of a price reduction. Elevate the value of services presented to your sellers.....stand out! Many of our agents provide this consultation as a part of their listing services.
Kristin simplifies the home selling experience which can be stressful and emotional for your Seller(s) and/or for you as the Agent. Staging isn't just bringing furniture in to a vacant property. It also includes working with sellers who occupy the residence, providing advice, and working with them to ensure their home is presented well to potential buyers.
Sellers (s) will receive guidance as to how they need to prepare to sell their property, ensure it is competitive with other homes on the market, and help a buyer visualize themselves living in it.
What is included?
Included in the walk through is a detailed room by room (exterior as well) report typed and sent to the Agent (or seller if hired direct) after the in person walk through, along with a professional printout of showing tips, maintenance to pay attention to, cleaning/decluttering, presented to the client. Paint color selections can be made at the time of consult if needed. FREE paint samples can be mailed directly to your client as well within 3-5 business days from Sherwin Williams, Porter Paint, or Benjamin Moore. If any additional work is planned, such as flooring replacement, you can plan to have the contractor there at the time of consult or samples to choose from and we will assist! Seller (s) will also receive a post card after the consult thanking them for the invite to their home.
If you would like to see an example report please reach out and one will be emailed to you!
