Folly Beach, SC

I love the beach! I love walking on the beach. I love picking shells. I love avoiding turtles and jellyfish. I feel blessed when I find a perfect sand dollar. I love getting rolled up jeans wet. I become much younger, than my years, when I'm surfing the waves.

Are you ready to live close to the sea?

Let me help! It will be a gift I'm ready to help you unwrap!

If you've never been to Folly Beach, SC you are missing out on a terrific South Carolina Beach experience. Parking is reasonable- $5 and there is a pier and wonderful beach. Center Street is the heart of the "commercial district." It has a very bohemian feel with hand painted signs on some stores and a laid back attitude. Folly Beach is a very popular break for surfers and body boarders. Visit Folly Beach for the day, week or even the entire season. Rentals are available all year and are reasonably priced. Come enjoy one of South Carolina's most enjoyable beach towns.

About 18 months ago I did this blog: Deja vu?? What happens when two of us do the same house two years apart? then only 6 months ago this blog: Charleston Home Stager sets a record - staging the same property 3 times (for the same client)!

In these blogs I discussed the interesting proposition of having staged the exact same unit 3 times... (I staged the first unit and the last unit - team member David Moon staged the middle one)

Well, just after the holidays, we had the interesting occurrance of having to stage the same unit a second time - again! This property was used as a model and had been staged for over a year as they were selling 24 of the same floorplan on this small island community - nearly all with waterfront views. Just before the holidays, the final two, including the model went under contract. The owners decided to unstage with about 3 weeks left before the final closing. Unfortunately, times being what they are.... neither of the units actually closed and both were back on the market again.... knowing how successful the staging had been to the sale of these units, we were given a call to come back out and restage the model unit.... (well... OK, actually they switched which unit was the model to the other unit... )

Team member David Moon actually staged both of these units as well....

It is always fun and interesting to redo the same exact floorplan you once staged - do you try to duplicate it? Do you try something new? How has your inventory or style changed since you last staged it? In all of these cases, the clients were pleased - both with the original performance (enough to rehire us) and then in the restaging services.
