Free Home Staging Workshop: Thursday 2/26 @ Warner Library in Tarrytown

Want to sell? Ready to sell? REALLY? Our market is improving, but buyers are focused. And patient. Is your house ready for its close-ups?

Preparing a property for sale is a very personal experience, there is not one absolute standard. It’s a collection of decisions that correlate to, and support your needs, goals, and expectations.

Properties that are priced right, and have been thoughtfully prepared for market garner the most buzz early on. They also attract the most serious, and best qualified buyers, and bring in the best offers, sooner.

Further complicating things-most everything you hold dear in this world is on the table: Family, your values and relationships, money and time, your hopes, dreams and fears. Critical thinking skills are essential, but where do you start, how to prioritize?
