Houses I’ve Staged, Styled and Sold Fast
The Way You LIVE in Your Home is YOUR BusinessThe Way You SELL Your House is MY Business! Melinda
Bartling
People always ask me, “Just what is it you do?”
I create your best emotional home selling look.
Here’s my picture book answer.Enjoy!
Disclaimer:Selling your house is hard work.
This is not about you. It’s about your house. And your buyers.
Some houses sell themselves. Most don’t.Most need a little something.
Whether it’s a small tweak or a full blown make over, using your things or mine,
I do whatever is necessary to sell your house…FAST.I take one house at a time and make it the best it can be.
That’s why my average house sells in 3 days or less, with multiple offers and for over asking price!
Sometimes it takes a bit longer but on average it doesn’t.It’s all in a day’s work for me. It’s what I do.
