The Real Estate Market Has Changed . . .

Buyers are far more discriminating, and a large percentage of the homes listed for sale don’t sell the first time. It’s more critical than ever to learn what you need to know to avoid costly seller mistakes in order to sell your home fast and for the most amount of money.”

THE 9 STEP SYSTEM TO GET YOUR HOME SOLD FAST AND FOR TOP DOLLAR

S

elling your home is one of the most important steps in your life. This 9 step system will give you the tools you need to maximize your profits, maintain control, and reduce the stress that comes with the home-selling process: 1. Know why you’re selling, and keep it to yourself.

The reasons behind your decision to sell affect everything from setting a price to deciding how much time and money to invest in getting your home ready for sale. What’s more important to you: the money you walk away with, or the length of time your property is on the market? Different goals will dictate different strategies.

However, don’t reveal your motivation to anyone else or they may use it against you at the negotiating table. When asked, simply say that your housing needs have changed.

It’s been proven that 3 times as Nearly three-quarters of homeowners claim many buyers call for information on your home that they wouldn’t use the same realtor who under this system.

Settling on an offering price shouldn’t be done lightly. Once you’ve set your price, you’ve told buyers the absolute maximum they have to pay for your home, but pricing too high is as dangerous as pricing too low. Remember that the average buyer is looking at 15-20 homes at the same time they are considering yours. This means that they have a basis of comparison, and if your home doesn’t compare favorably with others in the price range you’ve set, you won’t be taken seriously by prospects or agents. As a result, your home will sit on the market for a long time and, 6.

Studies have shown that it is more difficult to sell a home that is vacant because it looks forlorn, forgotten, simply not appealing. It could even cost you thousands. If you move, you’re also telling buyers that you have a new home and are probably highly motivated to sell fast. This, of course, will give them the advantage at the negotiating table.

Liz’ Tips

What’s Hot, What’s Not for 2011!

May 12th to May 26th, 2011

Did you know that most of our home furnishing design trends actually follow design trends in the woman’s fashion industry? So what you see walking down the red carpet today, might actually be Liz’ Tips By: Liz Quinn of Design’in-Mind translated into one of the hottest design trends of tomorrow!

Maximum Impact with Minimal Investment

PAISLEY PRINTS ARE STILL This year, the colour of the year according to A PIZZAZZ ELEMENT! Pantone, is Honeysuckle. Not the yellow Honeysuckle that you see that grows wild but it is the dark pinkish orange colour that is the We’ve seen years when the trends have gone from large dramatic floral to small geometric year's HOT COLOR. designs. One of the newest print styles for the coming years will be paisley designs. This SIMPLE, CLEAN LINES beautifully ornate pattern was commonly used In general, we see a bit more of a traditional for 19th century shawls manufactured in the design style when we talk about a transitional town of Paisley, Scotland. And the Scots got design. Today, this transitional design style the idea from Kashmir shawls made in India tends to have a more modern contemporary around the 1800’s. Filled with a myriad of gorinfluence rather than traditional. Look for geous colours, paisley designs add excitement cleaner, straighter lines in upholstered and and pizzazz to any décor. You'll find them in occasional furniture style. We also see a trend sheers, in silks and more. to smaller scaled furniture styles. The big GREY – THE NEW BEIGE! overstuff sofas are sliding down the popular scale since they take up way too much room in our homes. And many of today’s new occa- When it comes to colour trends, we’ll be seesional tables tend to feature straight rather than ing a more glamorous and dramatic colour curved lines. And, since you live in your palette this year. Grey is definitely the new house, decorating rules can be somewhat flex- beige, and purple continues to be a hot accent ible: always feel free to bend them up in order colour! Silver is still a key factor. Layer to lend “your personality” to your space.

TEXTURE, TEXTURE, TEXTURE!

Whether you chose to display your love of texture in your upholstery – leather, ultra suede, or micro-fibre, or in your wall art, with dramatic wrought iron designs, texture continues to add drama to any décor. Area rugs in various styles, shapes and designs, help add visual interest to hard-wood or tile floors. And draperies, deliciously designed with silks and embroidered patterns, continue to be all the rage.

DETAILS!

Appliqués, embossing, leather piping, beaded fringe, and dramatic tassels and tiebacks continue their everlasting popularity.

Brockville, Ontario

several shades of grey to achieve a great result: light grey, charcoal grey, shimmering grey, paisley greys, grey stripes…with a touch of shocking purple (or this year’s Honeysuckle)… to create a wow effect! These colours can also work for your wardrobe providing they are in your “season” colours.

LAYERS AND…MORE LAYERS!

Designers have layered window treatment for centuries. And, now that same luxurious feel is moving from windows to floors! Area rugs abound in colours, shapes, styles and textures.

And one of the hottest trends today is to layer your floor: area rugs placed over carpeting not only adds instantaneous visual interest, but can help give a tired carpet a fresh new look! It can also define a space within a room..
