Get to Know Tom McGuire
Prepare For Sale was founded by Joy (my then-girlfriend). My first introduction into Home Staging was when I went to sell my house. That's when I realized how important it is to have your home staged before it even goes on the market. Today's buyers want a house that's move-in ready. That was my first success in Staging.
After helping her with a large job, I decided this was the career I was looking for. I took the ASP training course to become accredited, and after that we formed a partnership - two actually - a business partnership and a marriage!
Together we are able to combine our talents, and see things from not one, but two fresh perspectives. We find that with our diverse backgrounds one can spot what the other cannot - Call it the Mars/Venus approach to Home Staging!
Certifications
I have been in the building industry for 30 years and have seen many styles come and go. What I have recognized lately is that today's busy consumers are much more savy and much less willing to invest in a home that isn't turn-key ready. This is why it's so important to get that worn carpet replaced and the walls freshly painted before the FOR SALE sign is put up. And it's equally important to have a home that gives the buyer the same ready-to-move-into feeling as a model home. This is where Staging comes in.
Professional Staging. Done by people who are Licensed, Accredited, and Insured. As ASP's, at Prepare For Sale, we take our Code of Ethics very seriously, and we believe in the importance of continuing education, and constant improvement.
Profit is not our number one goal - It is our sincere interest to help people market their largest investment (their home) so they can get the best ROI (return on investment) that they can, in the shortest amount of time possible, so that they can move on to the next phase of their lives.
