Unfortunately, I have not been able to blog lately. I recently lost my camera cord and have been unable to upload the photos I wanted to use in this blog post. But thanks to EBAY I now have a new camera cord and you have a new blog post to read :)
Once a month our office goes on an office caravan to look at some of our new listings. We all have clients looking to buy so we all feel it to be important to stay “updated” on our inventory so when a client asks us a question about a listing our company has we can be familiar with that particular house as opposed to just looking at the MLS sheet. I wanted to share with you some things I found to be intriguing in some of the houses we looked out. Great ideas from me to you Enjoy!
Here are all the agents that joined us for our September Office Caravan…. If I have mentioned it before I will mention it again…. I love all the people I work with The best group of real estate agents around… not that I am being partial or anything ;)
This is a picture of a custom cabinet in a dining room. I wanted to share this with you because I thought it was a good example of how to “stage” your house for sell. There are not too many items being displayed and it is not overly “personal”. When a buyer looks at your house they want to imagine their items in there. Also, in order to set your house apart from all the other houses on the market you must accentuate the features of your home that make it SHINE! Trust me.... if I showed a client ten houses in one day they would ALWAYS remember how they liked the “house with the cute cabinet”
Just an idea… but when you have double sinks think about doing two separate mirrors instead of one large one!
Now… if I were remodeling my own bathroom this is something I would DEFINITELY consider doing! I love the partial wall that separates the commode from the rest of the “open style” bathroom. Gives a little more privacy and it’s a feature that BUYERS WILL LIKE AND REMEMBER from the rest of the inventory!
This is pretty much the coolest 70ish wall paper I have ever seen! I sort of wish I had it in a room in my house haha! Do any of you have any wall paper you think may come back in style one day?
Like I mentioned earlier you have to ACCENTUATE the features of your home to set them apart from the rest the housing inventory. How lovely is this walkway? The sellers did a great job in landscaping… and as I spoke about in a previous blog…. Curb Appeal accounts for one half of a buyer’s decision!
Thanks for reading :) Stay tuned for my next blog as I will be putting up pictures of a great new listing I am getting in Marion..... I have a feeling that this one is going to sell fast!!!!!
