You need a competitive edge. I am a firm believer in the adage that you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Each property should be marketed to attract attention and generate activitiy. I have respect for the sellers and work with them to create a winning situation.

Some homes may show better with staging. Staging is not new. I have been staging homes since the beginning of my real estate career. Staging refers to the process of preparing a home for sale so it is presented in the best possible light. Staging shows a home's positive attributes in most cases through simple and inexpensive touches such as artful furniture and accessory arrangements. In the extreme case or for a new house, staging can be decorating from scratch. It can also enhance the outside with regards to a home's "curb appeal". Your home becomes inviting to potential buyers. Whatever the degree of staging you do, it can make a significant difference. Studies show staged homes sell faster than their competition and usually for a higher price.
