🏡 Trying to make your home feel less “cookie-cutter” and add some interesting and architectural elements to make it unique for your family? Here are some ideas!

✨ Colleen’s Tips!
👍🏻 Create a “WOW” factor on your ceilings! Adding beams, wall paper, paint or coffered ceilings creates dimension and helps catch the eye.

👍🏻Add custom built-ins or a wet bar with bold or patterned tiles and open shelving to add a pop of color & texture.

👍🏻 Personalize a space that’s specific to your life. What would make your life easier, more fun, or more relaxing? Adding a dog wash station, sauna, or a movie room are just a few examples of ways homeowners have personalized their space to fit their lifestyle. It’s your home so enjoy the investment!

🖼 This MASTERPIECE of a home never hit the MLS because it received an offer that was a true WORK OF ART.

🏡 My clients had very specific terms that they were looking for; specifically a quicker closing and a rent back agreement. They didn’t want to wait to list their home and miss out on potential buyers in the current market, so we listed it as a Private Exclusive.

🧐 What is the strategy behind listing your home as a Private Exclusive?

⬇️ Let’s Start Here:

❌Things that can hurt sellers on the MLS:
1️⃣Days on Market: the longer the house sits on the market, the more “stale” the listing becomes and ultimately sells for less than asking price.
2️⃣Price Reductions: If the listing is priced too high and has to undergo a price reduction, buyers may think they can negotiate even less, ultimately affecting the final sale price.
3️⃣Under Contract ➡️ Back to Active: If a home is “pending” and something happens during the transaction causing the sale to fall through, when it is relisted as “active” many buyers question the property, even if it was the buyer’s fault (i.e. financing).

👏🏻 During Private Exclusive:
👉🏻Sellers set their ideal price and terms.
👉🏻Sellers receive real-time feedback from agents that know the specific market/town as well as potential buyers before having to go on the public market.
👉🏻Together, we use the data from Brokers Open Houses and private showings to make improvements prior to listing, and list it for the most strategic price.

🎉 In the case of this home; the buyers’ offer was exactly what the sellers were looking for. It has been a very smooth transaction … stay tuned for this one to close in 10 days!

❔What is the return on investment for hardwood flooring? More specifically, is there value in adding consistency to flooring in a home?

🤩 Hardwood flooring adds a wow factor to homes and home owners can see 2x the cost of installation as a return on their investment. Cost recovery is 147% for refinished hardwood flooring and 118% for new wood flooring!

Colleen’s Tips!
👉🏻Make sure planks face the same direction throughout your home for consistency and flow. When planks are facing opposite directions, it can give the illusion that the floorplan is “choppy.”
👉🏻Be consistent with flooring stain, finish and plank size. However, if there are different floors within the home (i.e. original hardwood floors and newer floors in an addition), sanding and staining them the same color can create a cohesive feel.
👉🏻Keep as much original hardwood flooring as possible! When original hardwood floors can be salvaged, it adds so much charm and character to the home.

❔What are buyers looking for in a primary bathroom?

💰 Primary bathroom renovations can see an average return on investment of 68% – 71%!

Colleen’s Tips!
🚿Depending on space, add a free-standing tub and separate shower.
🚽Create a toilet closet with a door for privacy. If that’s not a possibility due to space constraints, consider strategically placing your toilet so it’s not too close to a shower or vanity.
💧Having two free-standing vanities as opposed to one longer vanity with double sinks is a newer trend, which offers distinct and separated space for belongings as well as added storage.
🤍Swap out bath towels and bath mats with bright whites to create a cleaner and crisp look.
🪴Add open shelving and include plants with draping greenery and/or add eucalyptus in bunches hanging from your shower head.
🕯️Use spa-scented candles to elevate the space even more!

❔Should I convert my garage to a gym or office space?

💡Homes with garages sell for roughly $20,000-$35,000 more than homes without! If you decide to convert your garage into a living space, make sure it can be easily converted it back.

Colleen’s Tips!
👉Use spray foam insulation to help protect from the outdoor temperature shifts and to prevent mold.
👉Consider adding a mini split for a temperature controlled space.
👉Adding epoxy flooring, drywall, insulation and/or recessed lighting can improve the overall look of the space.
👉If you have a 2-car garage, consider converting only one bay.
👉If using your garage space for a home gym, invest in rubber mats that can easily be removed if you decide to convert the area back to a garage.
👉Don’t forget to update your garage doors. They have a 100% return on investment!

If your garage was like mine and needed to be organized before updating, call in an expert organizer:
