Last night Judy and I returned to a home that we had given some staging recommendations to a few months ago. We were absolutely blown away! They had gone through our entire 4-page list of recommendations and done almost everything we suggested. This was a beautiful home to begin with, in a up-scale neighborhood, but it just needed some changes in order to be ready for the real estate market. The home-owner has impeccable taste, which provided nice furniture and artwork and accessories to work with. The really neat thing is that they worked so hard, and the results were so worth it. They painted their outside shutters, they removed wall-paper from their living room and kitchen, they painted their ceiling in their master bedroom, they moved some really huge furniture out of their bedroom and a very large desk out of their kitchen. They are listing their house today....and I can't imagine it being on the market very long. I hope to post pictures this weekend, it will be fun to see the before and after. The couple was so complimentary of us and were surprised that we had only been in business for a year and 1/2. They said we really knew what we were talking about, and just assumed we had been staging for a long time.
So, on the way home, we are all happy and smiling when I get out of the car and our brand-new car magnets that have our b&b logo on it were gone! They blew off the car on the way home! Kelsey and I got back in the car and retraced our steps, and we found 1 of the car magnets on the highway, but not the 2nd one. I got up this morning, and drove the same path again, looking everywhere on the highway (I can't believe how much trash is on the sides of highways) but I didn't see it. Oh well...live and learn! At least I have 1! What a day!
