This week my assistant and I staged a phenomenal home in the luxury Kiawah Island market.  The agent, Lucie Jones of Dunes Properties, and I have worked together before.  The last home we worked together on defied odds and sold in 4 months (the average DOM in this community is over a year - and there are currently 8 years worth of inventory on the market last I had heard).  The moment she took this new listing she knew that we would be working together again.... As we walked through the home - a secondary home for the owners who lived in another state - it was clear that the home had been in their possession for many years and hadn't been updated in some time.  The overall bones of the home were fabulous, however! The biggest problem, in my opinion actually was in the master suite - it ...

You know you just get a warm fuzzy when you get that call or email from one of your agents letting you know that a property you staged went under contract.  This one made me feel particularly good, especially after pulling the stats from MLS.  This home was originally listed on 5/19/08 for $1,298,000 in the exclusive Kiawah Island resort area.  The views are stunning, but it's 1980s interior left potential buyers feeling as if they would need to do too much work on the inside to make it work for them. With some wallpaper removing, a lot of paint and a truckload of furniture, art and accessories my team transformed this home to the spectacular residence it should be....    originally these cabinets were oak trimmed laminates.  Painting the oak strips helped to keep the kitchen softer and...
