    to unload excess materials

    (photos, knick-knacks, ill-fitting furniture)

    exercise equip, cleaning supplies, gas, etc.)
  • Get slipcovers for mismatched couches

from MULTIPLE offers!

What We do for your Home ...

Before we list your home, we offer a complimentary evaluation and consultation on how to best present your home. We suggest the best ways to go about streamlining your home. Our objective is to maximize the audience the property will appeal to when marketing your home. We are selling to the buyer. We want to keep the home warm and welcoming, but not overly personalized to you alone.

Put yourself in one of the TWO categories
:

  1. Am I a SERIOUS buyer, selling a place
    TARGETING the buyer?
    Take the "Model-Home" way of thinking if you want your home to be seen and remembered.
  2. OR am I Selling a house that I like living in? Even though the home may indeed be comfortable and welcoming, are you targeting your buyer? Selling means being serious about marketing your home towards the buyer, if you wish to get top dollar.

Effort put forth beforehand, potentially means less mortgage payments put up by you and less time on the market.
