Home Staging and Real Estate Investing
Home Staging
One of Cathleen's specialties is staging homes for sale. Even in this challenging real estate market, her success rate is unmatched. Many prominent realtors call her the minute they have a new listing in order to ensure the success of a sale. Scientific studies prove that a buyer makes up his or her mind within 15 seconds whether or not they are going to purchase a property. The criteria upon which people make their decision is based on the emotional reactions they have towards the space. These reactions often take place on a subliminal level but are crucial to the successful sale of a home. The key for anyone selling property is to create dynamic first impressions that compel a buyer to want make the purchase. Staging a home correctly for sale can result in rapid sales and higher profits. Proper flow, furniture arrangement and attention to detail can determine if your home sells easily or languishes on the market. If you are an individual selling your home, or a real estate agent looking for assistance with staging a property, Cathleen will provide invaluable expertise in helping you prepare for the increasingly competitive real estate market.

"Dear Cathleen, Thank you so much for helping us stage our house for sale. My only regret is that I didn't call you sooner! I can't believe our house sat on the market for six months and then sold in one day after we implemented the changes you suggested. You are a magician! " - B. Morrison "I have employed Cathleen for several years in determining the best locations for my corporate offices. Each choice she has helped us make has led to bigger and better opportunities and greater success for my business. I would not make a real estate investment decision without her." - D. Berg "...I just have to say thank you for helping us stay clear of a disaster and helping us find a home that would be the best place for us. When you advised us not to buy the first home we were considering I was disappointed at first, but the home that we did buy using your recommendations has been a dream come true. I even found out through our real estate agent that the family that did end up buying that other home has had nothing but difficulty there, just like you said might happen. Thank you Cathleen, from the bottom of our hearts!" - M. Braga |
