STAGING YOUR HOME SUCCESSFULLY The key to making your house more desirable to buyers is to create a space they can envision themselves living in. It can boost your home’s asking price and reduce the time on market. However, it’s not just about decorating — here are 5 out of my top 10 home staging rules to consider:

1. De-personalize your home It’s important for the buyers to envision themselves in your home without feeling overwhelmed by your memorabilia.

2. Maximize the space For example, tightly packed closets may seem as though your home lacks closet space.

3. Clean your home Consider cleaning floors, walls, baseboards, ceiling fans, and windows.

It is the cheapest and easiest way to stage your home.

4. Modernize your home Consider changing fixtures from gold to chrome to attract more buyers.

5. Paint your home Neutral paints are welcoming and will appeal to most potential buyers, plus it’s a low-cost way to change the look of your home.

JOHNATHAN AND ANGELA-MARIE, If you are thinking about selling, choose a Stonegate specialist with the staging, marketing, and negotiation skills to position your home above the crowd and secure the best possible price.

Kind Words from a Happy Ckient If a Realtor can be a fairy godmother it would be Traci Garontakos. Changes in our personal life have created the need for several real estate transactions in a short amount of time that seemed impossible. Traci took the reigns for us and eliminated all of the stress that typically goes along with a home sale and purchase. She took time to understand the needs of our unique situation and worked tirelessly to find not one but two homes for our family. When you work with Traci, you have her focus and attention at all times. She is accessible anytime day

or night and is always super responsive and helpful. In addition to finding our new homes, she also sold our current home in record time for well above what we ever expected to get for it. Her attention to detail to make the listing nothing short of spectacular was what made the difference. I would recommend Traci to any friend or family member in need of a Realtor. She is truly one in a million!
