In this busy market, it's important that we presen In this busy market, it's important that we present your home in its best light so we can get those offers ๐Ÿฅ‚ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € When you hire The Yeager Team, we will always use our experience and passion to help your home shine โœจโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Here are a few staging tips we might recommend: โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € 1๏ธโƒฃ De-personalize your home: you'll want to take down those family photos, but if you have a lot of frames on the wall, there's an easier solution than taking everything down, patching, and painting. Find some pretty wrapping paper at a stationary store, and pop it in over the photo for a quick and neutral fix. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € 2๏ธโƒฃ Keep it neutral. If your home is decorated in bold colors, consider swapping bright curtains or bed linens for white ones (even in the kids' rooms!). Target and Ikea have some super affordable options. Although it's not necessary to paint, neutral walls can make a room appear larger, too.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € 3๏ธโƒฃ Lighten and brighten -- and don't forget the staircases! If you have white treads, touch them up with some white paint. This area can get scuffed and give your home a worn appearance.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Tell us in the comments if you're interested in more quick staging tips like these!

We are getting this question (or a similar version We are getting this question (or a similar version of it) a lot this year, "is now a good time to buy/sell?"โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € The truth is, it's a great time to do both. Yes, inventory is at an all-time low, but so are mortgage interest rates and we don't know how long they will stay this low.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € The National Association of Realtorsยฎ recently reported that the number of homes currently for sale in the US stands at 1.28 million, down 22% from one year ago and only 2.3 months supply available at the current sales pace. We are finding the margins to be even tighter here in the city.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € With such high buyer demand, you might not want to wait to put your house on the market! We can navigate a strategy that is right for you so you can get your home sold and into a new home with as little stress as possible.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € DM us if you'd like us to run comps on your home to help you make the most informed decision.
