Selling this fall? Starting strong matters even more this time of year. In the fall, buyer activity typically starts to slow while the number of homes for sale climbs. That means fewer buyers may be looking at more options – so you want your house to stand out from day one. Here’s the cheat sheet for how to make that happen.  Price it for today’s buyers. Not what your neighbor sold for a few years back.  Make your house hard to pass up. Tackle essential repairs and spend time on your curb appeal.  Stay flexible when offers come in. This is not the season to play hardball.  And be ready to adjust when needed. If you keep getting the same feedback from buyers, take it to heart.  If you want to sell before the end of the year, let’s make sure you have the right strategy from the start. Because with the right plan, selling in the fall is a no brainer. #HomeSellingTips #SellYourHouse  

Transitioning from Holiday Decor to Winter Decor

Our champagne is popped and I’m ready for everything 2020 has in store! As we get ready to welcome another year, I’m showing you how to transition your holiday decor to elegant winter decor. Freshen up your home with decor that will last you through all of the winter months.

  1. Down goes the Christmas Tree. Or at least the ornaments! If you are choosing to keep your tree up a little while longer, take down the holiday ornaments and simply leave the tree bare.

2. Keep a simple color palette. Take away the bright red and greens and update with mainly greenery, gold and silver.

3. Replace garland and wreaths with small, subtle trimmings. Choose locations such as the mantle or centerpiece for a table.

4. Update your mantle. Take down the Santa figurines and stockings, and replace with candles and greenery.

5. Add lots of blankets! With Winter decor comes Winter temperatures. Place faux fur blankest and throws in each room for easy access!
