Stage the Dream

Anyone else relate? 🤣😂

Thank you for supporting my small business. It is much appreciated. 🥰

Looking at each space through a camera lens can give you a new perspective. Try this outside as well.

This before and after photo comparison gives sellers a perspective from a buyers point of view.

When a photo shows a well presented space it can influence a buyer more positively.

OCCUPIED HOME STAGING MYTH BUSTER

Minimalist home staging does not mean taking absolutely everything out of a room and only leaving a sofa and a rug for example!

It’s pretty hard to fall in love with brown and brown.

So what does minimalist home staging look like in a bathroom?

*remove your personal toiletries from view

*clean thoroughly

*organise your cupboards

*add some coloured towels

*add a plant

Bathrooms are big ticket items for buyers. Look at what these awesome sellers came up with for their bathrooms. 🥰 Let me know what you think?

I really appreciate these kind words from one of my clients.💗

I love what I do and my passion for helping home sellers achieve their dreams grows each time I receive a message like this.

But the best thing is that when you STAGE THE DREAM, if your experience has met your expectations or more, then we have achieved what we set out to do.👍

Time to spread the word or contact me!

It is important to highlight the strong features of your home, those details that make it unique, like a media room, a fireplace, or a built-in outdoor kitchen.

Also, to reorganise each space and relocate furniture if required so that everything is easily understood when viewed online.

I am more than happy to help and guide you through the process of whole property presentation.☺️

Hi and go the Maroons for tonight!!!!

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you are sitting right now, wondering if you should call me....then you really, really DO deserve to book in for that free explore call. And if you think you don't have the time? You do. Because my FREE 30 minute consultation can SAVE you time in the long run. Hours of it!

Want to know how you can highlight your property's strengths too? BOOK me online at https://www.stagethedream.com.au

Most people don't realise this, but Stage the Dream was started not just because I wanted to help people to get the best sale outcome for their home.

I also wanted to help people take control over something that is one of the biggest monetary outlays they will have in their lives, while learning a little about colour, design, and organisation along the way.

Personally, we were so lucky that we had the pleasure of incredible real estate agents, over the years, who went above and beyond for us, but we also weren’t selling in a market as incredibly informative and competitive as it is today.

It's one of the reasons I am so passionate about helping people break free from old thought patterns about sale presentation. Today's buyer knows that presentation is much more than decluttering, depersonalising and cleaning.

You see, there’s a lot of extra money being left on the table that I can see, JUST by looking online at listing photos!

What a buyer perceives in a single photo is SO IMPORTANT! Getting someone to your front door to see your property's potential is the key.

So, if you're looking for someone who knows how to help you get your whole property presentation right for compelling online photos, then DM me and I'd love to chat about how we can work together.

Can anyone else relate? 😀🤣

Show of hands in the comments who this has happened to as well.

If you’re thinking about selling your house, then read this post first!

Organising your real estate agent is so important, but before choosing one there’s a few things you should know to make sure you get the outcome you deserve.

Have you considered choosing someone who uses savvy marketing techniques utilising staging in such a way to create strong marketing photos?

Did you know that not every agent uses science to ensure that your listing photos put you in the strongest position online?

Not all agents are created equal. I work with some of the best agents in the Moreton Bay region who are currently using neuroscience to help their home sellers gain the added benefits from their marketing campaigns. That’s paying off in $$$$$$$

So, before you jump in, make sure you are considering this important and often overlooked marketing step as it can truly help you to get the sale outcome that you’re looking for.

I am curious, what does this look like for you?

For me? It means how I felt today…. gratitude. You see, yesterday my iPad screen froze. First time this has happened. I tried everything I knew and then some, but Googling and Apple Support didn’t solve it. In the end it was fixed today, but I was so happy that not long ago, someone helped me to set up a system that meant this iPad glitch, didn’t mess up any of my other systems.

So, you see, this quote means a lot to me, because in small business, we don’t grow without the help of others who also love to see people happy and succeeding. That’s why when I can, I try to pass the help on as well……

So, what does this look like for you?

DID YOU KNOW? 😁

Your mattress has an average life cycle of 8 to 10 years. That’s about
3 000 times your body has slept on it. If you need to shower a couple of times a day, when was the last time you gave your mattress a clean?

Check out a couple of other scientific facts about your mattress in my new blog. Some might surprise you.

Sleep Better, Feel Better: The Science Behind Cleaning Your Mattress — Stage the Dream I have seen a lot of beds in my time as a property stager. So, they are a hot topic during my consultations. You probably change your linen each week, but have you given much thought to your mattress? We all know that mattresses can be a breeding ground for dust mites, bacteria, and allergens. Thes

In case you didn’t know I test out the products that I recommend to my clients!!😊

In fact, here’s one I tried recently. With the constant rain over the last 18 months, our front deck has suffered with water patches, causing mould to form. So, I wanted to try out the UltraPrep Mould Killer from Intergrain.

Is scrubbing on your hands and knees using a toxic bleach product NOT your idea of fun? This UltraPrep Mould Killer for use on decks will ensure that you mix, brush on and never have to scrub ever again!!! It's so easy to apply!🧹

It literally nailed it!! Once this product was sprayed off and the deck dried, the mould disappeared! Ready to restain.

Want to know more about what other nifty products that can save you time and energy? If so, DM me! I’d love to help.⌚️

If you are not sure where to start with your whole property presentation or you are confused about all the conflicting information out there, book a free 30-minute consultation with me. I work with some of the best agents in the Moreton Bay region so I can help you find that match too!

The secret is out. I do things a little bit differently here at Stage the Dream. But in the BEST kind of way.

You see, when you work with me, you can expect some differences.

1. Your home consultation with me will not only be filled with warmth and winning strategy backed by 6 years experience and almost 700 homes, but you’re also going to get science backed formulas!

2. The price? Will have you double-checking you read it right ‘cause I keep your investment as low as possible as small businesses don’t have big budgets but DO deserve big support.

3. I work with you the individual! That’s right, your needs and timeframe are paramount to me. That’s why I spend time offering you the attention to detail and a personalised framework that will help you on the way to achieving the marketable presentation required to stand out.

And the list goes on...

These things - both little and big - make Stage the Dream what it is, and they are things that make me damn proud.

If you could only keep two, which two would you drop?

You are building a house, but you can’t afford everything. If you could only keep two, which ones would you leave out?

1. swimming pool

2. walk in robe

3. large kitchen

4. solar panels

So.....one has to go. No cheating. 😉 Drop your choice below!

One quick tip that’ll help you to save $$$$$ with the cost of wall art when styling for sale:

Use the personal picture frames you already have on your walls and put prints downloaded from Etsy Australia in front of the photos temporarily. This way you can depersonalise and create a consistent colour scheme at the same time.

It may sound obvious, but I can’t even begin to tell you how much it has helped the clients I have worked with. Especially for those home sellers who need guidance on how to create focal points but also want to spend more of their budget on specific areas with a great return on their investment, for example towards, flooring or painting.

And here’s the best part – once I work with you on refining which colours and themes you can use, it’s a matter of downloading the digital print and you have a different wall art for sale, and to use in your new place once you move!

Have you done this before? Or do you have a different idea? I’d love to know!

Hoping you all have a wonderful day today.

A special shout out to both of my daughters, Soph and Laura who I'm super proud of. They both do an amazing job as mothers and their children are so lucky to have such loving and caring mums.🩷🥰

DIY MOMENT FROM MY PAST (Painting feature walls)
So the first time I tried to paint a wall by myself, it was a complete fail. Of epic proportions.

It was when I had my daughter, Sophie. I had put her down for a sleep. I had everything ready and was happily rolling away. I got about half way along one wall when she woke up! I thought I’d speed up and finish, but instead I tripped over something and ended up putting the end of the paint roller handle through the wall!!

And of course, like any person, I whispered to myself ferociously “well, I am never doing that again”. 😂

But if I had actually stuck to that? If I hadn’t gotten back up and tried again the next day?

Then what would the impact have been? Well I would have missed out on bringing a hobby into my life that brings me so much joy. I have painted numerous walls in a number of houses since then. Definately not during sleep time though….😂

And never found how much I love to unleash my creative side!

And my walls wouldn’t be filled with so much joy.

And that would have sucked WAY more than that initial ‘moment’.

So this is your reminder that if you have been stung by trying something new, it’s ok to take some time out.

Dusting yourself back off and trying again is not only the secret to restoring your confidence, but finding something that may just be your new favourite thing as well.

(This story is for one of my newest clients who is trying a lot of new things. I think you are very brave. The both of you. 🥰
