Home Staging Makes a Difference!

May 3, 2013 by Leave a Comment

Hello everyone! These photos really show the difference when listing your home for sale and hiring a home staging to make it all happen. All it takes is a couple of changes and Voila!  More inviting, cleaner and brighter.

This Condo as of April 25th,  has a couple of offers just after one week, and the property owners are deciding which one to choose! The listing is with Torelli Realty for $399k, located in Costa Mesa, CA. It features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, great room / living, and eat-in kitchen and a patio right off the kitchen for entertaining.  It also has a very clean 2-car garage and a private front entrance.

Can a Person Tell Your Personality by Your Home?

March 8, 2013 by Leave a Comment
DC Redesign Home Staging, DR Style

Dining Room Design

What do YOU like in home decor and choosing accessories? You know it’s all based on your personality – your favorite colors, your style, your interests, how many kids, and so on…

I’m sure you have favorite stores for accessories, art, linens, furniture, rugs, etc.  It’s all how you think about it. Some can live with very minimal accessories and some people like to live in a lot of “stuff”.

DC Redesign likes to shop for home staging and design products at many stores that even  may be on your list.

World Market has a very good selection and many promotional sales for rugs, chairs, art, pillows, and bathroom and kitchen accessories. I would suggest signing up for their Perks Program and get additional discounts. All you have to do is provide your telephone number at checkout and you’re done.

I love Pier 1. The dining set and the art in the above photo is from Pier !.  They always have very helpful store assistants to find you some of their really great accessories, candles from their line (which are on sale every month in a different scent), and the accent pillows are very unique.

If you haven’t heard of TPT Home in Costa Mesa, CA, you’ve  got to check it out. It’s a huge store with lots of stuff in the nooks and crannies of the store so allow yourself an hour or more to shop!

Kitchen Accessory Idea

Kitchen Accessory Idea

Psychology is used for color, design and placing  accessories and furniture. This is what determines why some buyers go nuts over some homes, and know it’s the house for them.

“Personality is the strongest predictor of satisfaction with life; some people have everything and are never satisfied and some people have next-to-nothing and seem quite happy with life.” Read about “Can People’s Personalities Change?” at PsyBlog, Understand Your mind.

It’s not just what you have that makes you satisfied or happy, it’s how you think about it. And those habits of thought are heavily influenced by personality. What makes you happy?

How Do You Build Trust?

February 8, 2013 by Leave a Comment

trust

Ok, we’re all guilty of something in our lives; mine is guilty of trust. I choose my Home Staging customers through feeling, and trust all will turn out just fine.

My “contract” is an email to you to stage or design your homes, listing where, what rooms and how much.  If I used a hard-to-read contract it would not change the way I do business because I do and say exactly what I propose.

Discernment, gut feelings, and women’s intuition are incredible.  I’ve had some pretty bad years with evil individuals and corrupt businesses but this has taught me to trust again – but it has taken some time.

Realtors, Brokers and Investors get free consultations for vacant properties.  And, depending on the situation, I will consult with others at no charge for your home staging or design for your new home. To me, it’s all about making loyal customers, honest business relationships and true friends.

So here’s my expertise that is used for every design:

  1. We don’t sweat the small stuff – flexible pricing
  2. We’re not afraid to point out our flaws – we address them
  3. We use urgency to get it done quickly – elegant one day design
  4.  One month lease with prorated days – less than $40 a day
  5. Polished and bright photos by a professional – included
  6. Promotional gift offers – monthly give-a-ways and discounts

Being a likeable and trustworthy person all boils down to getting to know one another, sharing stories, getting personal, having a common passion and being helpful, generous and responsive to each other. How do you trust?
