Home Staging Atlanta Helps Secure a Contract Only Hours After Listing And for full asking price! Music to my ears!  I had staged two houses that week and both went under contract in a matter of hours. The other agent called and said "Can you say, zero days on market?" Needless to say, it was a great week. As a home stager in Atlanta, my objective is to help sell homes more quickly.  In the home pictured below, we were used the homeowners existing furniture on the main floor and replaced the bedroom furniture in the master. With the exception of the master bedroom picture, the after pictures were taken by my favorite Atlanta Real Estate Photographer, Iran Watson. Here's the entrance before home staging: Here's the after picture. As you can see, it's the same entrance table. The tapestry ... 07/18/2011

As a professional home stager in Atlanta, Georgia, I've always had an interest in ensuring I take the very best pictures possible. The reason why is that not only do I use then in my portfolio, I also provide them to the homeowner AND agent for their use in the marketing of the home at no additional charge. It's my way of saying.... I understand the importance of marketing and the impact it can have.  The more exposure - the more visits. The more visits, the more likely we'll get an offer.  Having great photos, even close-ups such as these below, help bring in buyers. Here are two I had recently taken of a home we staged last week.  As you can see, I applied the "Iran Watson" technique.  Thanks to his guidance, I was able to make the background blurry. It's my first-ever picture that I'... 07/06/2011

Take the plunge the water is fine.   I recently took a holiday to the British West Indies for a week of R&R. I saw some of the most majestic blue and turquoise waters ever. A few days in I decided to try snorkeling. Now mind you I don't know how to swim so I was happy staying in the shallow water and looking for conch shells and seeing a bit of seaweed and small fish that swam by. The captain of my boat called us all out of the water because he was going to take us to see the coral reefs. He said that the water further out would be shallow as well and that those who couldn't swim would be okay.  Little did I know that when he said shallow, that he meant a depth of 18 feet. Now to a non-swimmer he might have just said 18 miles. Needless to say that I was surprised, intimidated and a bit... 04/25/2011

Jackye Mumphrey a licensed Real Estate Broker, teaches agents how to gain more business through "Ad Attraction" and " Specific Reverse Prospect Marketing" It is all too common for agents to place ads that turn off prospective buyers rather than attract them by offering what they are really looking for. Prospects do not buy homes off of the internet , but they search to find what is available and to comparatively shop before finding an agent to help them. It is the smart agent that realizes this and uses a system to capture these prospects and turn them into buyers. Specific Reverse Prospect Marketing is a systematic tool that will used correctly will cause serious prospects to contact the agent and not the other way around.
