In any business there is that never ending term of taking a gamble or a risk. Like a roulette wheel, you have several possibilities of an outcome... could be good... could be bad. So why would you take a risk in this market?
Real Estate has changed dramatically in the last couple of years. What once worked for many of us, does not work today.
2 years ago I said I would never cut my fees. Nope, I was sure of it. But in light of the market and all the challenges that my Realtors and homeowners have, I decided to take the risk and change my fees. I also took a risk and changed a few of my services. I threw the dice and it ended up being a good thing.
The onset of all the short sales and foreclosures has also changed the market. Do you take a risk of picking up a short sale? Do you take the risk of working with bank owned properties? Do you change your services to account for a need in your area? These are all questions that you have probably asked yourself. Taking the risk depends on you and your specific area that you work.
This can be a tough time for many, but it does make us all look at what we can do to stay afloat while keeping our integrity and remaining ethical. We may need to change our thinking from a few years ago. We may need to take a risk and step out of the box a bit. All in all, it may take some time to see where the dice lands, but you could score a big reward for your throw.
I am sure that you have heard about Home Staging, but do you really know what an experienced, professional stager can do? Ok, let's say that you pick up a property to rehab. You may have a huge job ahead of you. The condition of the property will depend on the amount of work and when you will be able to get it all finished. As real estate stagers, we know your time frame. we know what needs to be updated, we know what buyers are looking for. Have you considered using a real estate stager to help you with bringing your home into market condition?
Here are just a few consultations and services that we have to offer:
Many of the services above can provide you with major discounts by using a stager. We also offer Investor packages that allow for extra visibility, professional pictures, discounted pricing, package deals and help with finding a Realtor just for you. That is right, we can refer you to a Realtor that knows the area, that knows all that you have put into the property, and one that will work hard for you. All it takes is a phone call to get your properties in order and ready for market as soon as possible.
The properties below were major renovations. The investors benefitted greatly by the use of an experienced stager. They were finished with quality upgrades and presented to buyers with the use of professional staging.
Are you ready to let an experienced, professional stager help you? We look forward to earning your business!
