Staging Your Closets With Feng Shui

In Feng Shui, having orderly closets and dressers is a very good thing. Having closets and dressers that incorporate some empty space is desirable because it allows room for new energy (and Jimmy Choos :o ) Holding on to old, damaged or unused items creates clutter, which slows down the flow of energy (Chi).
In order to get started organizing your closets, many professional organizers advise you break the project down into small chunks.

Listen To Your Home Stager – Part 2

The listing agent hired me for a home staging consultation on his South Pasadena listing. I met with him and his clients and we discussed everything I felt needed to be done to get this home ready to sell. The homeowners and listing agent were diligent about doing everything on the list, and they got it done in record time. The clients moved out, the house was repainted, re-carpeted, and cleaned over the course of a week!

Listen To Your Home Stager

Over the past few weeks we’ve done several home staging consultations in Los Angeles and Pasadena.

In 2 instances I suggested repainting and new carpet. In both cases the interior of the homes had not been painted in several years and the paint looked tired and soiled. And in both of the homes the carpet had become so soiled and worn that it was not salvageable.
I’m happy to report that both homeowners made the investment to get their San Dimas and South Pasadena homes sold quickly and repainted the interiors and recarpeted.
