TA L EGA’S RED-HOT R E A L ESTAT E M A RKET
D R ESS I T UP O R W HIT E- BOX IT ? T HE R E ’S A H OT N EW T REN D FO R M A RKET IN G YOUR HO ME
An exciting new way to market your home for sale is emerging and it offers an intriguing alternative to the tried-and-true approach of decluttering, replacing bright paint with a neutral theme, and strategically arranging furnishings and decor to showcase each room in its best light. It’s called white-boxing, and it might be just right for you and your home. “The typical approach of staging is a proven winner, with many examples demonstrate that it can increase your sale price and decrease time on the market,” observed Doug Echelberger, San Clemente's number-one real estate agent and owner of Echelberger Group. “Traditional staging is still a good way to go for many sellers, but the new white-boxing strategy is gaining in popularity for a variety of noteworthy reasons.” White-boxing heads in the opposite direction of staging. Instead of updating and adding decor to create a model-homestyle ambiance, white-boxing removes everything from the home, providing a blank canvas on which buyers can project their own style, furnishings and decor. For the upper and high-end market, this provides the advantage of moving focus to a property’s other attractions, including views and location. And for buyers who want to completely transform a home’s interior, white-boxing makes it much easier to picture their ideas. Both traditional staging and white boxing have their own benefits. With staging, appropriately sized furnishings can actually make a room look larger. If a home is offered furnished, it is key to properly display furnishings as well, as this can increase value. And many buyers are looking for an easy, turnkey approach, making for a quick move-in. For homes that will most likely be remodeled or heavily upgraded after the sale, from ocean-front view estates and condos to Talega’s broad spectrum of single-family and attached designs, white-boxing will appeal to the right buyers and often shorten the length of time on the market. For more guidance on the best way to prepare and market your home, let Echelberger Group’s professionals help you every step of the way.

Stunning Views in Alora
6 bed | 6.5 bath | 4,564 sq ft | 7,710 sq ft lot
Stunning views of rolling hills, evening lights and the shimmering ocean complement this move-in-ready custom-caliber residence on a quiet cul-de-
sac street at Talega’s prestigious Alora collection in San Clemente. Approximately 4,564 square feet, the home presents six ensuite bedrooms and six-and-one-half baths that provide stylish comfort for residents and guests on both floors, with a casita offering a private entrance, separate living room and a kitchenette. Vast in size, the living and dining room opens to a covered outdoor living room via slide-away doors. Slide-aways also open an oversized great room to the backyard, creating an indoor/ outdoor vibe. The great room adjoins an open chef’s kitchen with an extra-large island, two walk-in pantries, a butler’s pantry, a six-burner cooktop and a vent hood with heat lamps. A split three-car garage with storage space is featured on the main level, with the second floor hosting a bonus room that can easily become a home theater, game room and more. Ocean views and a tray ceiling distinguish a master suite with two-sided walk-in closet, a spacious walk-in shower, separate tub and two sinks. Professional land- and hardscaping enriches a homesite of 7,710 square feet that features a private, gated entrance courtyard with fountain, and a backyard with fire pit, BBQ bar and fireplace.

RANDOM FUN FACT | You get Goosebumps when you're scared to make you look bigger. This harks back to cave man days when the best way to fend off a predator was by looking scarier than that predator. That’s why your hairs stand on edge when you get Goosebumps, so you look bigger and scarier.
