3 Homes Sell In Just Days After Home Staging in The Main Line and Philadelphia Market

Are you using the 1-2 punch to sell your home?

If not a combination of PRICE and PRESENTATION is the key to getting a successful home sale in today's market. Savvy home sellers and smart Realtors in the Main Line and Philadelphia markets know that propper pricing and presentation or home staging is essential to getting an offer within days. Need proof? Check out these updates from home sellers that put their homes on the market just weeks ago:

Pricing and Presentation IS what it is all about:

Dear Kate,

We did it again! The team of Hart & Associates Staging and Design and Realtor Marcia Fluhr just sold another home! At the beginning of February I was referred to a Seller whose listing was expiring with another company. The property was vacant and needed some pop. You brought in your staging materials and within hours you set the tone. You also recommended that they paint the master bedroom a more neutral color. 17 days later we had an agreement of sale and go to settlement the end of March. Pricing and Presentation IS what it is all about! I can't wait to see you at my listing next week to what kind of magic we can create. Thank you for being part of my team! M.F. Prudential Fox Roach Blue Bell PA

We got an offer for list price in hours:

Kate,

I wanted to thank you for all your help and let you know that we put our house on the market yesterday and got an offer for list price within hours!!!  Thanks again for everything! A.M Philadelphia PA

 

House Sells for MORE THAN LIST PRICE Within Weeks:

Kate,

I'd guess you probably already know from Kath, but we sold our house for a bit more than the listing price just three weeks after it came on the market.  Competing bids did the job, just as Kath had hoped.  And the compliments on how well the house looked just kept coming.  The realtors loved it, and at least three people put in bids.  We are very grateful to you for your help. S.D. Gladwyne, PA

MIRRORMATE® FRAMES SIGNS AWARD-WINNING

HOME STAGER KATE HART AS NATIONAL SPOKESPERSON

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (February 2009) -MirrorMate®has tapped the talents of renowned home stager Kate Hart to serve as spokesperson for the brand in 2009.  MirrorMate is the leading manufacturer and retailer of custom frames for plate glass bathroom mirrors and is used by homeowners, remodelers, designers and stagers, like Kate Hart, to give boring bathroom mirrors a finished, up-to-date look in a matter of minutes and for a fraction of the cost of a new mirror. 

Kate Hart is a pioneer in the staging field, having helped hundreds of families and realtors prepare homes for sale over the last 5 years through her Philadelphia-area company, Hart & Associates Staging & Design. Her design work has been featured in numerous books and national publications, as well as on The Fine Living Network, HGTV Radio and CNN Headline News.  Hart was also recently recognized by the Real Estate Staging Association as "Staging Professional of the Year."

"We all know kitchens and bathrooms sell homes," said Kate Hart.  "I've found MirrorMate frames to be an indispensable tool in getting a home ready for sale.  It's a quick, affordable and high-impact way to transform a dated bathroom into a home's biggest selling point."

 "We're thrilled to have Kate as an ambassador for the MirrorMate brand," said Lisa Huntting, inventor and president of MirrorMate.  "Kate and the staging community have embraced MirrorMate and we look forward to having her share her staging and design expertise with homeowners and industry professionals nationwide." 

  About MirrorMate LLC

Headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, MirrorMate LLC was founded by Lisa Huntting, who invented the product as a design solution for the four bare mirrors in her own home. The patented design allows the custom-cut frame to tape directly to the mirror currently on the wall, covering clips and channels and fitting seamlessly with any mirror - even if it sits atop a backsplash or runs to the wall or ceiling.  MirrorMate comes in over 40 styles, installs in a matter of minutes and gives the bathroom a finished, updated look.  As the original and industry leader, MirrorMate frames are patented in the U.S. with additional patents pending in the U.S. and Canada.  For product and company information, as well as a demonstration video, please visit www.mirrormate.com.
