Dear Friends, Clients and Fellow Associates~
The other day I went for a listing appointment. The seller was busy getting ready to put the home on the market. As we walked from room to room it was easy to see that this seller had some great furnishings and accessories. The only problem was they were not in the right place to make a great first impression. I had Kelly meet with the sellers and she not only got the job she made it fabulous. They liked it so much they decided to take it off the market and enjoy it!
Kelly has helped me with staging my homes to sell and also has helped with a custom built couch! Whether selling, staging or just living give Kelly a call and take her up on her free one hour of design constultation on Hilton Head Island. Below is a little bit about her:
Designing to Sell, Inc.
Designing to Sell provides a wide scope of home staging services to assist home owners in getting ready for the real estate market. Right now the competition is great and each home needs to be distinguished from the others. Knowing what a home needs to set it apart from the competition helps the homeowner realize the sale.
Vacant Staging:
Staging vacant spaces is crucial as it gives purpose to each space, provides color and warmth and creates an inviting atmosphere. It is important to provide custom, new furnishings and accessories for each space in the home to create a look that is specific to the style and architecture of the home. Staging vacant spaces helps visually guide home buyers to understand all the wonderful features a home has to offer that might otherwise go unnoticed.
Occupied Staging:
It is very important that home buyers are able to get a perspective of themselves in the home as they pass through each space. This makes it crucial for home owners who currently occupy a home for sale to have each space staged so that it provides a selling atmosphere. Staging an occupied home may include furniture re-arrangement, de-personalizing, color neutralizing, de-cluttering and curb appeal.
Home Renovations:
Major and minor renovations are another staging option for homes that are dated or weathered. Home buyers often do not want to hassle with fixing up their purchase or have trouble visualizing a homes potential. Assisting home owners in making budget savvy choices for necessary changes can really increase a home’s selling potential and its value.
Designing to Sell specializes in all of the above staging services. Please call for a one hour free design consultation!

Put Your Home Ahead of the Competition
Replacement properties on Hilton Head are easier than ever to find and sellers now risk losing buyers if they postpone or delay even one showing. In order to sell, properties must offer easy access and the easier, the better. Our Hilton Head agents are accustomed to “call first than lockbox” if the property is occupied. Keep the showing instructions simple and uncomplicated for the agent and their buyer. If you have showing instructions that include 24 hour notice, agent must attend, no showings before 5, after 9 or on weekends, call tenant, call for appointment due to pets or any other restrictions you may want to revisit your showings with your agent.
