The owners of this already beautifully maintained colonial followed our advice for getting maximum buyer interest and offer prices. The interior was freshly painted throughout, lighting fixtures updated, and rooms decluttered and staged. We also retouched the exterior images to show the home without the 12” of snow from recent storms! The result was 10 competitive offers, all including excellent terms, and a winning offer 24% over the list price.

Even in today’s hot local real estate market, homes that have been prepared and staged are getting substantially higher sale prices. Our professional preparation and staging services are included as a critical part of our full-service approach. We maintain our own inventory of staging furniture and accessories, and have a roster of quality contractors to handle repairs or updates.

If you are thinking of selling but not sure how to proceed, we can help – whether it’s evaluating the market value of your current home or helping you to find that next perfect home.

OUR DEEP-STAGING INTERIOR DESIGN DELIVERS AGAIN!
We fully prepped this 3-bedroom colonial for sale – minor repairs made, a new gas range installed, all rooms freshly painted, old carpets removed, and our unique deep-staging design service – to make it irresistible to the target buyer pool. Add to that a great neighborhood location, and the result was a hot bidding war with 12 great offers after just 9 days on market.
