Decorate Redecorate

Selling a home right now can be difficult, but staging a home will make it much more appealing to a wider range of buyers. Decorate-Redecorate offers home staging training in addition to directories that can help home owners stage their homes to present it well online through pictures as well as to those that walk through the home.

Huntington Beach, Ca. (IPRWIRE) Wed, August 8th, 2007 — Decorate-Redecorate (http://www.decorate-redecorate.com) is happy to provide home staging training for homeowners as well as comprehensive directories of trained professionals that can do the job for the home owner. The market is very slow right now, and sellers have to get competitive if they want their home to sell at a price that is fair to them. Many homeowners assume that they cannot afford these services, but they will cost far less than keeping the house on the market for months at a time and lowering the asking price.

The problem that many homeowners have is they don’t realize how individual their tastes are. Just because our home looks good to us doesn’t mean that it will appeal to everyone. Through home staging training realtors as well as homeowners will learn that as much as 50% of the furniture in a home may need to be removed. Basically, the home has to be depersonalized. Neutral colors need to be used, and knick knacks need to be packed away, because these make the house look more cluttered and smaller. The seller needs to create the illusion of space while detracting from the less than appealing qualities of the home, and accentuating the great things.

The real estate market is currently not favorable for home sellers, making home staging a critical element in creating an appealing product for potential home buyers. The Decorate-Redecorate website provides an extensive directory that will help home buyers find a professional that can help them make their home as attractive as possible so that it sells sooner and perhaps for a better profit

Huntington Beach, California (IPRWIRE) Wed, May 16th, 2007 — Decorate-Redecorate (www.decorate-redecorate.com) is proud to provide homeowners with a new directory of home staging experts that can help sell homes sooner rather than later. Generally, experts can set up the home in a way that most homeowners are not able to because of their attachments to furnishings and to the home. In addition to the directory, the website also offers a wide variety of products and courses that apply to the successful staging of homes.

The already slow real estate market situation was compounded when the Federal Reserve announced that interest rates will not be going down, which has negatively impacted the stock market, and may continue to impact home sales for some time. This doesn’t mean that a house will not sell when put on the market; it simply means that homeowners need to work hard to have their home stand out from the competition. Staging a house is one relatively simple way to have a home get noticed by potential home buyers.

Newly released home staging guide allows property owners to learn the secrets of properly displaying homes for better sales results and better overall profits from sale. Comprehensive guide also shows owners tips on making faster sales with less stress

Huntington Beach, CA (IPRWIRE) Mon, Nov. 20th, 2006 — Decorate-Redecorate (www.decorate-redecorate.com) has announced the launch of its new, comprehensive, checklist guide entitled “Home Staging for Yourself.” This 80-page guide is designed for any do-it-yourself homeowner wanting to prepare their home to be sold at a higher profit in less time.

With the rise in interest rates, the real estate market has gone soft in many parts of the country. Not only has this created a perplexing dilemma for owners, but for real estate agents as well. As a result, owners need to put extra effort into making their properties more appealing to a smaller quantity of potential buyers.

Home staging has proven itself as an almost guaranteed method for an owner to out-distance other properties on the market of equivalent size and age since only about 6% of owners even understand the value of home staging before putting it up for sale.

Barbara Jennings, CEO of Decorate-Redecorate, states, “We train home staging professionals and re-designers who give consultation services and work with homeowners to properly present their properties to buyers. When the owner takes the time and effort to properly prepare the house and property, it is customary to sell for much more money and in a far shorter time period. Sometimes real estate agents offer the consultation services to their clients and sometimes a professional will work directly with the owner.”
