an interview with GRETCHEN COLEY of The Coley Group create a digital platform that is second to none in our market. I can say with 100% confidence that our houses sell faster and for more money than our competitors because of my digital marketing. We develop a custom targeting strategy for each of our videos, client’s homes, and neighborhoods to generate the best results. What’s your biggest success to date?
Gretchen Coley RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE ADVISOR 919.526.0401 | www.thecoleygroup.com Realtor, Broker, and Luxury New Home Specialist, Gretchen Coley of The Coley Group has extensive knowledge and expertise related to the Raleigh Real Estate market. Having sold and successfully closed over 1000 homes totaling over $300 million, Gretchen is incredibly passionate about helping her clients buy and sell their homes. We heard from her about Raleigh’s current market, how she got her start in the industry, and more! How did you get your start in the real estate industry?
I think my biggest success in real estate has been growing my team. We work with great synergy and we place a strong emphasis on collaboration. This helps our clients succeed in Raleigh’s fast moving market. I feel so lucky to genuinely love every minute of my work and especially the people that I work with. As a team we feel so grateful that our clients trust us with their largest investments. How would you describe the current luxury market in Raleigh? In Raleigh, the luxury market is strong. We are very fortunate to offer our clients a great job market, incredible schools, and low taxes. We have people moving here from urban areas unlike we have ever seen before. Raleigh is an attractive choice for homebuyers, especially now. With low interest rates, people can buy a lot more than they could a few years ago. We're seeing homes in the luxury space that are still selling despite the pandemic.People are rethinking their living situation, looking for home offices, space to hold virtual schooling, exercise space, and room to entertain outdoors.
I started in real estate right out of college working in new construction. I had always loved building, and new neighborhoods so it was a very smooth transition for me. I started marketing new construction communities in Charlotte and was agent of the year my first year in the industry.

What is your approach to selling homes to clients? I don’t believe you can sell a home to someone who doesn’t want to buy it. So my approach has always been to first understand the needs of the buyer. This means learning not just what they need, but why they need it. From there we can figure out solutions when we run into obstacles, like when certain homes at a certain price-points seem unattainable. We figure out how to meet the buyer's needs by making creative tweaks so that we are able to put that person in front of their dream home. Then they can make the decision to confidently buy. We feel that our clients deserve the best and we try to always over-deliver with a concierge style of service. Our team consists of specialists in every single aspect of the real estate transaction process. We do all of the heavy lifting from start to finish so our clients can enjoy the process!
What sets you apart from other agents? I think that one of the biggest things that set me apart from other agents is that for twelve years I honed my skills in new home developments. Working for builders and developers and having to market neighborhoods in order to attract potential buyers and agents took my skill set to another level. This experience really polished my marketing skills. When I went into general brokerage I realized that I missed talking directly to the buyers instead of spending all of my time working with other agents. I quickly leveraged my marketing skill-set to change that. I have focused on video marketing and been able to
people to the area. With that brings new restaurants, new shopping centers, and renovations, all of which elevate the lifestyle Raleigh has to offer. You will never be bored here; there is so much to do. From museums to hiking trails, restaurants and performance venues the triangle has so much to offer that you really can’t find anywhere else. To top it all off, you get to experience four great seasons with a very short winter.
Raleigh’s luxury market can support that wish-list with its great lot-sizes, beautiful neighborhoods, and fabulous homes to choose from. For a potential homebuyer, what are some of the best aspects of living in Raleigh? Lifestyle is by far the best aspect Raleigh has to offer. The cost of living is low, driving a lot of new

Sustainable Home Designs Taking Over
1.
Natural Materials A serene environment is easily achievable with the use of natural materials like wood, stone and concrete. These materials lay the foundation of an organic landscape evoking a calming energy. With wood, veer towards lighter shades to create an open and airy space that reflects light. Concrete accents work well to add a flourish of a naturalistic look without going for the obvious with concrete flooring or fixtures. While using stone for countertops or walls reflects a modern twist to a room’s appearance.

Green is in - and that’s one design trend everyone seems to be in agreement with. Environmental conscientiousness is at the forefront of almost every discussion and interior design is capitalizing on the opportunity to infuse nature-friendly aspects into the home. We’ve rounded up the top sustainable home designs popping up. BY CHEYENNE PROSPER

Earth Tones
Gone are muted tones and taking its place are earthy hues. Saturate your home in shades of yellow, brown and red. The allure of rich colors to illuminate the home has taken root in the design sphere with the popular colors showing up everywhere.
3.
Living Walls The popularity of decorating with plants has exploded with plants of every kind being used to inject natural elements in the home. Taking things a step further, is the “living wall.” This vertical garden - if you will - is great to add a unique design feature to the home. If you’re short on space, this is a creative way to use greenery in your design plans without creating clutter. Yet this design trend goes beyond aesthetic - the functionality of this design is it improves air quality and improves health.
4. Green Roofs Another trend that strengthens the move to biophilia is creating green roofs. A slew of luxury buildings opening up in hot ticket locations like New York City, Dallas, Chicago and Miami have been quick to adopt the trend. Like living walls, green roofs offer practical benefits. They are much more durable than standard roofs and more energy efficient.

CO N N E C T YO U R Interior Design with Better Sleep
Interior design sets the tone, mood, and ambiance of a room. And, there’s no room where that’s more important than one with such a specific purpose as the bedroom. The quality and length of your sleep cycle can be heavily influenced by everything from the light location and levels to the wall color and artwork. Sleep success has psychological roots that interior design can either help or hinder. Making that connection between design and purpose can help you get the full seven to nine hours of sleep you need every night. And we’ve got some tips to help.
SLEEP-ENHANCING COLOR PALETTE
Cool neutrals—the grays, whites, and pastel blues and greens—don’t overstimulate the eyes and calm the mind and body. They’re a favorite in the bedroom because of their psychological impact.
ONBOARD NATURE The barrier between the natural world and living spaces continues to thin. Time spent in nature reduces stress and anxiety, which nature-inspired design can also do. There are obvious choices like artwork that directly depicts nature in the form of landscapes, photographs, and sculptures. But, nature can enter the room through more creative and subtle means as well. Lamps, rugs, pillows with floral motifs, or organic design elements with shapes and colors of nature can relax the mind and body too. Natural fabrics like cotton and linen with their soft textures and earthy vibe simulate the calm of a nature walk. Natural elements don’t have to be soft or visually soothing to benefit sleep. Brick, stone, sand, and houseplants can be beneficial too. They also open the door for self-expression and a unique take on what it means to blend the indoors with the out.
FOCUS ON THE BED As the largest piece of furniture in the bedroom, the bed is often, though not always, the focal point. It should also be the most inviting space. Soft textures, luxurious pillows in all sizes, and throws that add dimension create a bed that’s hard to exist. The design should also have the practical in mind. Yes, extra pillows make you want to jump on the bed, but make sure there are enough functional pillows that you can keep your spine aligned while you sleep.
Author Bio: Samantha Kent is a researcher for SleepHelp.org. Her favorite writing topic is how getting enough sleep can improve your life. Currently residing in Boise, Idaho, she sleeps in a California King bed, often with a cat on her face.
However, when choosing a color palette, you also have to take into account your personal, ethnic, and cultural experiences and preferences. Any color with which you have a negative connotation could potentially affect your ability to fall asleep. A color, with which you associate peace and calm even if it’s bright red, could benefit you. The key is to create a palette that reduces stress and calms your mind and body.
CONTROL NATURAL LIGHT Nature in the bedroom is a good thing. However, there are certain aspects that need to be carefully monitored and controlled because of the way they affect the sleep cycle. Natural light, for example, can suppress sleep hormones. Whether it’s sunlight from an early summer morning or moonlight in the winter, natural light is absorbed by the eyes and sent directly to the circadian region of the brain where it triggers the “awake” signal. Bedrooms with a wall of windows need sufficient window coverings to block out all light at night. Artificial light needs just as much consideration. Any task lighting should point away from or be diffused as it nears the bed. Dimmer switches are a simple way to provide ambient light control as bedtime grows near. Good bedroom design balances beauty with practicality. Walking into your bedroom should feel like a release from stress and pressure. Design that makes you feel like you’ve stepped out of the world into your personal retreat is one that will support your sleep for years to come.

Tips To Move Across The Country With Your Family
You need to be careful when it comes to moving across the country with a family. You’re going to want to take this a step at a time, so everything goes well for you. Here, you’re going to get the tips you need to start moving as soon as possible to your new home.
BOXES & PACKING Moving is something you need to pack for, and when you pack, it has to be done right. First, you’re going to need to figure out where you’re going to get boxes from. One idea is to go to a local grocery store to ask them if they can give you a few boxes. Many stores go through tons of boxes every day, and they recycle them so they will provide them with a way to save themselves a bit of work. You may also be able to find moving boxes in bulk that you can purchase online, so shop around if that’s how you’re going to get what you need. When packing, you’re going to want to make sure you label all of your boxes in the right manner. You don’t want to rush through and put things that are fragile in boxes that are not marked as such, or else you won’t be careful with whatever you have in the boxes. Even if a company is packing for you, tell them you want everything labeled. Generally, professionals will label boxes, but it doesn’t hurt to remind them to do so if they aren’t for some reason. CHOOSING MOVING COMPANY Many moving companies can help you move if you don’t want to do all of your work. If you’re going to hire people to help, you have to make sure that they are charging a price that is worth it. Make sure you let them know that you’re doing a cross country move so they can give you a more accurate price quote. Also, a guide to cross country moving tips can help you to find the best and reliable professional movers for your move. Don’t just go with the first company you find because it pays to shop around and see who has the best

prices and avoid it because they charge too much. Don’t just hire a moving service based on price, however, you also need to find out if they will be worth your money to work with based on the quality of service they provide. If you want to learn more about the quality of service you’re going to get, you’re going to want to look up reviews on a company to get the information you need. When looking at reviews, please make sure they are recent, so they are likely to be still true of the company if anything has changed with them recently.
any service, including moving. DOING THE RESEARCH When moving on your own without help, you’re going to want to know if you can return your moving truck to a place in or around the city you’re moving into. Don’t get stuck in a moving truck that you can’t return without driving it far away. Many moving truck companies operate out of most major cities, and some are in smaller areas. When working with a moving truck service, make sure that you read reviews
TECH FOR THE MOVE If you’re moving far away with kids, they’re going to need something to do in your vehicle as you travel to your next home. For instance, you can let them use a tablet to play a few games you downloaded before moving, and that should keep them busy for a while. But, if you go with electronics, make sure you have a way to recharge them when running out of battery power. There are many excellent vehicle chargers, so look into that to have things charging while driving your vehicle. SIGNING UP FOR EMAILS There are a lot of options when it comes to moving; you’re just going to want to make sure that you know if a company has specials or not. Sometimes, if you go to the website of someone that does moving work, you can get a deal on their services. For some websites, you’re going to want to make it a point to sign up for the email marketing list they have in place, so you know when they have some deals. Don’t think that you have to pay full price because sometimes you can find deals on
to only work with companies worth the investment. Now you’re more aware of what you have to do when you want to move across the country with a family. Don’t rush this because you don’t want to make costly mistakes. Just use what you learned here, and in the end, you’ll do just fine.
