Hello everyone,
I am having tremendous success in Real Estate. I just listed a home last Saturday. By Monday, the painters were there painting the entire exterior of the home, the bathroom cabinets and bookshelves, and family room. During this time, I was bringing in furniture, pillows, plants, arranging furniture, and giving the home an inviting appeal.
It went on the market Thursday, and by Friday I had a offer that the sellers are quite happy about. Meanwhile, all the homes that were previously on the market before I took the listing, still are!
I can't boast enough how important staging is to a home. I will blog my listing within a few days. I would love to know your feedback.
Staging and Listing Expert,

I live, love, and thrive in Danville, CA as a Realtor, Stager, Mom, and wife. I offer complimentary staging for my clients which ensures all my listings are presented like a model home.

Congratulations Tina! Sounds like you have 2 happy families! If you can post before and afters, we'd love to see them.
Wow! What a quick sale! I'd like to convince a seller of mine to have his home staged... what's the approximate cost of staging? Or, if you don't wish to guesstimate for the Denver market, do you have some statistics of how much more a staged home sells for, and how much more quickly it sells? I'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions!
Tina thank you for sharing your successes here - I love it when I read these testimonies and the fact that you're also a realtor makes it all the more credible to other agents. We "stagers only" often have a hard time convincing the real estate community of the value of staging prior to listing but it works! We know it! Thank you again and I'll look forward to your next post.
Tina, congrats to you! This is another great staging story! Keep them coming!
Dane - the pics are coming
Deanne - depending on the scope of the project and if I can use their items, minimum $500 to $3000. I charge a flat fee so the client knows the entire costs and doesn't get nervous if the house takes a couple weeks to sale and will get back to you with the rest
Karen - Sheron (my sister) is constantly telling me to post my successes but I am so busy staging and selling that I forget and with 2 kids...well anyway...I will be posting more as soon as I get a chance...I stage all my listings and they are flying off the shelves!
Marci - you have no idea!
Tina is your sister Sheron Cardin? (I don't see that spelling for Sheron often)
Yes it is Karen. She inspired me to get out there and decorate because I loved it so much and I couldn't do one more thing to my house. I just love it and getting back into real estate about the same time has just been the best combination. Thanks for asking.
Very cool Tina (btw - my sister's name is Tina too) I'm happy to hear that and that you are achieving much success in what you love to do.
Hey Tina, your sucess, and congratualtions by the way, is testimony to how important it is to stage a house, particularly before listing. One of these days agents and sellers will come to understand this.
Terry Haugen - STAGE it RIGHT!
Hey Tina - you did it! You finally posted and a nice one. Everyone likes pictures so be sure you get those up.
Karen - we seem to have a lot in common!
Hi Tina,
Congratulation! That's an awesome accomplishment in this market, I'd love to see your before and afters!
