Selling? DON’T MAKE THESE HOME-STAGING MISTAKES When it comes to selling your home, presentation is everything. That’s why many homeowners work with professional stagers when preparing to put their home on the market. When a home is effectively staged, it can give you a competitive edge and potentially help secure your desired sales price as well.
Not everyone has the budget to hire a stager, however, and going it alone is not as easy as it may seem. Even if you’re an avid reader of interior design magazines or a loyal fan of home improvement shows, you can fall victim to one of several mistakes when staging your own home: Not thinking about photographs. Sure, your home may look great in person, but will your staging strategy translate well to photographs? Keep in mind that the vast majority of home shoppers begin their search online, where photographs are a deciding factor as to whether or not they’ll consider your home further. Angling your furniture. Resist the temptation to get creative by arranging your furniture on a diagonal angle. You may think this makes your room look bigger, but it actually skews the perception of space. Not using area rugs. If you have an open floor plan, you may think bare floors add to your home’s spaciousness, but the lack of rugs can actually make your home look barren. Attractive area rugs are essential to adding some warmth and coziness to your home by delineating specific areas. Out-of-scale wall art. Eye-catching artwork is a great way to up your home’s presentation factor. Artwork that is too big or too small for your walls, however, will throw off the entire design of a room. A piece of art or grouping of artwork should take up ⅔ - ¾ of a wall’s space. Not letting in enough light. A bright and airy feel is essential to helping your home stand out among buyers, so make sure your home has more than enough light. For older homes without recessed lighting, bring in some extra table and floor lamps, and in all cases, make sure window coverings are wide open or potentially removed altogether. Keep these “not-to-dos” in mind when setting the stage for your home’s sale, and you’ll have a better chance of standing out among the competition. Reprinted with permission from RISMedia. ©2021.

QUESTIONS TO ASK A POTENTIAL CONTRACTOR When it comes to renovating your home, be it a kitchen remodel or a bathroom overhaul, you want to be sure you hire the right professional for the job. This is the person you are depending on to tear down your walls and spend your dollars wisely. Avoid a renovation nightmare by researching a few different contractors and setting up an interview with each of them. Here are seven interview questions to ask a potential contractor to ensure you hire the right pro!
1
Are you licensed, bonded and insured?
Most states require contractors and their employees to take and pass an exam, as well as attend annual education courses to maintain their license. If they are insured, so are their employees. This is vital when choosing a contractor, because if they are not insured and someone gets injured on your property, you will be liable and they can sue. Bonds, such as a surety bond, will ensure that if they go out of business mid-renovation or they do not finish the job for another reason, you are not liable for the additional costs to fix the job or pay their bill.
2
What is the cost breakdown?
Never settle for a general or overall price estimate. Asking for an itemized cost breakdown is a vital step in the interview process. This way, you can see what they are charging you for and decide on any changes before they start. Oftentimes, there are many hidden fees that a homeowner may never know about. With a cost breakdown, you can discuss your options, update plans and even consider more cost-effective materials for your project.
3
What is the anticipated timeline for this project?
After discussing the cost, you want to understand how much time your project will take. Of course, you will likely not be offered a set finish date, as weather and other incidents may change things. Remember that delays are common and unforeseen circumstances may end up changing the completion date. Work closely with the contractor to set an anticipated start and end date, and if you need the work finished by a specific date, be sure to mention this now rather than later.
4
How long have you worked in this area?
In order to build a good reputation in a city or community, contractors must perform at a high-quality standard. Understanding how long they have been in business and how long their employees have been working with them will give you a better idea of how the finished
product will look. If they have experience working in your area before, they will have a better understanding of permit regulations and any possible issues in your area, such as piping and electrical work, that you may not be privy to.
5
Can you share references from past customers?
6
Will you obtain the correct permits?
7
Can we put everything in writing?
Previous customers are your best source of information on how well a contractor performed. In addition to doing your own research and reading online reviews, ask them to share a few past customers for you to speak with. When you do reach out, ask questions such as, “Were deadlines and expectations met?” and “What were your best and worst experiences working with this contractor?” This will help you get a better understanding of the contractor’s communication skills, as well as the quality of work you are paying them for.
Permits are almost always required for professional remodeling jobs. Make sure that your potential contractor understands the rules and guidelines for permits in your area, and that they will help to schedule a visit from an inspector. Once a building inspector reviews the project and approves it, your contractor will be issued a permit to start the work. Remember to ask for copies of any and all permits for your records. If a contractor tells you they do not need a permit, do not hire them!
In addition to collecting copies of the required permits, you want to ensure everything is put in writing. Every detail should be included in a contract, such as payment schedules, cost breakdown, timetables, materials purchased and other essential information. Before you decide on a contractor, be sure contracts are complete and signed before any work is started. Do not trust a contractor who refuses to put things in writing or tries to talk you out of a contract.

HOW TO COPE WITH THE STRESSES OF MOVING
Moving to a new home is exciting, but the process is also bound to be stressful. Recognize that stress is a natural response to a major life change and follow these tips to avoid feeling overwhelmed. CREATE A PLAN
It’s common for people to feel so overwhelmed by all the tasks associated with moving that they don’t know where to begin. The process may feel more manageable if you break it down into a series of steps. Seeing things on paper and checking off tasks as you complete them can help you feel in control and ensure you don’t forget anything important. Figure out what you want to take to your new home and where things will go before you start packing. This will allow you to sort your belongings and pack them in boxes that are clearly labeled so you’ll be able to find things easily when you arrive at your new house.
START THE MOVING PROCESS AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE
People tend to greatly underestimate how long it will take to make arrangements with a moving company, assemble packing supplies, sort through their belongings and pack them up. When it comes to moving, a good rule of thumb is to assume that everything will take longer than you think it will and to begin to tackle things as soon as possible so you don’t feel overwhelmed as moving day approaches. Start with small, simple tasks. Getting some of those out of the way can give you a feeling of accomplishment and help you build the momentum you need to take on more challenging tasks.
GET HELP
If you’re moving to your new home with family members, split up jobs so no individual has to shoulder an unreasonable amount of responsibility. If you have other relatives or friends that live nearby who can help you, reach out and ask them to pitch in however they can. Even if friends come over for an hour or two to help you with packing, that can help you make progress. Also, spending time chatting with loved ones can help you relax. You may be able to get some friends or relatives to help you load up a moving truck and carry furniture and boxes into your new home, but hiring a moving company may be less stressful, even if it costs more. If you take that route, you won’t have to worry about heavy lifting and you may even be able to get professional help with packing.
TAKE TIME FOR YOURSELF
Once you start packing and get into a groove, it can be tempting to keep going to get as much done as possible. However, that can quickly cause you to feel burnt out. During the moving process, be sure to get enough sleep, take relaxing breaks and get some exercise. Even a 10-minute walk around the block can be enough to help you recharge.
