Stephanie Burton provides Home Staging services to the greater Calaveras metropolitan area. Home staging is defined as preparing a home for sale by showcasing its best assets and making it more attractive to potential buyers. Staging your home ensures that it sells quickly and for the highest possible price. Research shows that prospective home buyers form their purchasing decision within minutes of entering a residence. Let Stephanie give your home a fresh, inviting and updated look that will help your home make a great first impression.

Home Staging Tips for Top Dollar Sale of your Home by Susan Botticelli, Realtor, Broker and Home Staging Expert. Susan specializes in residential sales in the Rancho San Diego area of El Cajon, California.

Is Home Staging for me?

 Are you ready to put your house on the market?

 Is your house on the market and not selling?

 Do you want your house to make a statement for a quick sale?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then home staging is for you! Staged homes sell an average of 20 times faster than non-staged homes.

What are the benefits of Home Staging?

1. Faster Sales Time
2. Higher Sales Price
3. Great Listing Tool
4. Distinct Marketing Advantage over non-staged homes (and non-staging agents)
5. Attract a broader range of buyers - Staged homes are more appealing and are recognized as the best properties to see.
6. Buyers view Staged Homes as well cared for properties.
7. Building Inspectors view Staged homes as cared for properties.

8. Appraisers are more likely to appraise Staged homes a full value.
9. Professional Image - Staged homes look better in print and internet advertising.
10. Buyers and Sellers will see you as a quality agent who wants to present a quality product to the market.

What is Room Redesign?

Room Redesign is for anyone who wants to enjoy the space they live in!
I will help you achieve a pulled-together look that is warm, inviting and practical, while reflecting your own personality and lifestyle by using your own furnishings and accessories. I will give your home that designer look without a designer price tag and create the “WOW” factor you’ve always wanted!

Services Offered

Staging Consultation:
As the Calaveras market becomes more difficult for the average home seller, I would like to offer a special Staging Consultation for $125.
Our consultation will include:

 Complete & thorough walk-through of your home with digital photos

 Recommendations on furniture & accessory placement to create that “WOW” factor

 Suggestions will include all budget ranges, with emphasis on using what you already have

 A detailed analysis and written report highlighting and prioritizing the changes the homeowner should make to ready the home for sale -- from curb appeal to room-by-room assessment

My job is to help you impress the prospective buyer in the first few seconds upon entering the property - so they can visualize your home as their home!
Regular Fee: $250

One Room Staging:
You may only have one room that needs some extra attention. Perhaps the idea of staging your entire house is overwhelming. We can take that one room and turn it from “drab to fab”! Furniture rental and moving large furniture is not available with this service.
Fee: $250

Open House Prep:
Buyers know within the first 30 seconds they are in a house if it is going to be their home. We will arrive two to three hours before the open house begins and prepare your home to make that great first impression.

Complete Staging:
This service is ideal for Homeowner's who are unable to Stage their house themselves due to a short timeframe or other constraints. I will look carefully at the character of the home, the general demographics of buyers and current trends in interior design to transform your home into showcase condition, both inside and out.

I can use your own accessories, use ours, purchase new or rent – whatever your budget permits to achieve the desired effect.

 I will do a complete & thorough walk-through of your home’s interior and exterior, take digital photos, and measurements to get a feel for what is needed to have the house properly Staged.

 I will use your existing decor and furnishings, and/or bring in furnishings and accessories from our large inventory if needed.

 I will organize and declutter trouble areas, as well as move or arrange for the storage of unnecessary items.

 I will carry out the work needed to get your home ready for sale by transforming it to show at its very best. Our staging work involves the re-arranging and editing furniture, accessories and artwork to create a fabulous first impression.

 I can also recommend reputable contractors for areas such as: Cleaning, Electrical, Painting, Plumbing and General Repairs.

Fee: Free bids are available for the complete Staging of your home.

This requires approximately a 45-minute visit to your home to review your home inside and out. At this time you will be provided with a written flat-fee bid for home staging. With your permission photos will be taken for “before” pictures, that you may use when marketing your home. Each situation is unique. Free bid is provided in person. Typical range: $1,500 to $50,000.

Room Redesign:
This involves the careful and strategic placement of your furniture and accessories in order to create and maximize focal points in your house and to create continuous flow and movement between rooms. Do you need a quick fix to make your house presentable on short notice? Give me a call! I also do outdoor living spaces.
