WHAT IF OUR

GREATEST WEAPON against climate change is a GROCERY CART?

We can all switch our support to grocery items, as not just a thing, but a way. Regeneratively farmed products help rejuvenate our soils which helps just about everything.

Palm oil production does the opposite. It destroys tropical forests and emits as much CO2 annually as all forms of transport combined! Yet, a disheartening 50% or more of grocery products still contain palm oil. While it’s not as simple as to say that our planet’s eco-ills are the direct result of our purchase choices, its recovery can be. We know the foods we purchase to sustain us also sustain companies and agricultural practices. Together, we can shift the trajectory of eco-events and make choices like the future of our planet depends on them.

We are in this together...cart and soul.

Getting potential buyers to fall in love with your home doesn’t need to be complicated. Team Webster works with your current furnishings (or sometimes not) to transform each room so buyers can better sense their future in a new home. Usually we can do this with no added investment from you, however, if needed we also work with full time stagers. Our expert design sense and real estate expertise will guide you to the best return with offers on your home.

Typically homes that are staged can sell 75% faster than those that are not.

With almost 90% of buyers looking online when they start looking for homes, you only have a few moments to catch a buyer’s interest.

Plus over 80% of staged properties sell for the asking price or above.

We offer our initial staging consultation at no cost to you and our services are free unless you choose to rent furniture.

It’s difficult for people to see your beautiful house when it has too much stuff. When staging your home to sell, the saying “less is more” almost always applies. Purging is not as hard as it seems. In fact, there are plenty of outlets that would love to have your stuff and sometimes even pay!

The curb appeal is the buyer’s “first view” of the outside of the house, while the entry is the buyer’s first impression of the inside of the house. Both are important and worth your time and sometimes money.

People view the living room as an area of entertainment and relaxation. Team Webster will use what you have and what we have in our design storage room to create an environment that buyers will appreciate.

The focal point of the dining room should always be a beautiful centerpiece that should be scaled with the size of the table.

The kitchen is critical to almost every buyer’s decision to make an offer...so everything on the counters should serve as a “marketing statement” and

fuel the buyer’s imagination for entertaining and family gathering.

It must appear spacious, clean, modern, light and bright.

Kitchens sell homes!

Bedrooms should be a sanctuary away from the chaos of home life. Relaxing colors, fluffy pillows even make a bedroom feel calm and comfortable.

Small rooms must be spotless and clean! Consider elements that evoke perhaps a spalike environment if possible.

It’s important to tuck away all products, keeping drawers organized and counters or workspace clear.

Outdoor staging is the same and always start with a deep cleaning! Team Webster will guide you every step of the way.

When going to the bathroom at night have you ever bumped into the basin or blind yourself with the bathroom light!

Are You Living in Your Dream House?

If Your Answer is NO, Why Not?

Set up a meeting with us. Let’s create a roadmap and get you there.

That is about to change because this night light for your toilet is the home lighting you maybe did not know is available...I didn’t until I saw it in a clients bathroom (for their kids).

You can find this all over the internet and very affordable and apparently easy to install and, once ready, it only lights up only when it's dark and senses movement. Cool right!

And many have eight colors to choose from (or a color rotation mode, if you’re in the mood for a midnight party) and can also be used to help make pottytraining fun.

I think this is utterly fantastic and life-changing as I get older and need to pee more frequently at night (TMI).

I may even give it as a gift.

Excited to buy one and I can only think children would love this also.
