Do you want to know how to get the maximum price for your home when selling?

Read on…
Selling a home can often be the most stressful experience on a par with going
through a messy divorce. It needn’t be – IF you follow this advice.

The most important factor when selling is to leave the presentation to the experts.
This is the most important decision you will make before you call a real estate agent.

Our Services:
1. View the property to decide the best spacial layout for traffic flow and decor.
2. Advice on what to do first – re: maintenance/repairs.
3. Provide a no obligation free consultation on the cost of staging hire.
4. Advise you of the top real estate agent in your area to market your home.
(We only recommend an agent who we are confident with and are passionate
& trustworthy with a proven track record of great results.)
5. We style your home for optimum appeal to the market.

We believe a home should appeal to the broadest range of buyers, bearing in mind that it should not look ‘clinical’ as some stagings tend to do.
Ambience and colour co-ordination play a huge role in the overall presentation.
We always add the little extras to complete the presentation at no extra cost
if we feel it’s needed.

Our Mission: To provide you with a top class presentation, affordable pricing and the very
best service for a stress free successful sale.

Don’t forget to read through our client testimonials of what we have achieved for our
previous clients.

Your property is most likely your biggest asset. Before you market your home, there are some vital decisions to make which will effect what the outcome will be.
You may decide to market your home privately and some vendors have been very successful.
However, not everyone is good at following up leads, clever in negotiating or closing a successful property sale.
Whether you sell privately or employ the services of a real estate agent, the most important
thing to do first is to make sure your home is stylishly presented.
Most people know what looks great but have no idea of how to put it all together.
The importance of Home Staging is often under valued by some- until they have
seen the amazing results and a quick sale. Sometimes the sale price far exceeds expectations!

To gain a successful sale you need two vital ingredients: Home Staging and a Top Agent.

These 2 go hand in hand – in that order!

1. Home Staging: Once your home is staged, the photos on the internet will gain more attention and create a powerful on line presence.
This will result in attracting more potential buyers through open home showings.

Don’t believe anyone who tells you that paying to stage your home is unneccessary
or too expensive.

Home Staging should not be termed as a cost but rather an investment which pays
you dividends.

I am constantly asked to dress up homes at very short notice which have been on the market and empty. Usually there has been negative feedback or no interest at all.
After staging, these same properties have sold very quickly.

for others.

2. Re: Your appointed agent: Find who is the top agent in your area, a skilled negotiator
with a good reputation and a proven track record of results.

Top tips to selling your home

Posted on Friday, September 18th, 2009

First impressions are paramount so make sure you de-clutter your entire home & spring clean to make it immaculate.

Tidy up the garden & entrance. Attend to all those things that need fixing which will be glaringly obvious to a prospective buyer..

Have you considered using the expertise of a professional House dresser ( home stager)? Home staging or ‘house dressing’ has been the norm for years overseas & vendors in Nz are now catching on that they need to go beyond a fresh coat of paint.

A cluttered untidy home with tired & dated furniture can put a buyer off & will drive the price down. An empty home can also be detrimental to a successful sale as buyers find it hard to visualize empty spaces and how their furniture will fit that space.

You wouldn’t go out to a special event undressed would you? So why would you treat your biggest asset (your property) this way & present it to the public ‘undressed’? Lorraine will dress your property to its best potential.

Whether it be contemporary, traditional or funky, she will help you with the best plan within your budget.

Don’t sell your home naked – Dress it up! Call now for a free consultation.
