Taking advantage of the "slower"
real estate
season, I took a vacation to Disney World in
Orlando with my family and friends. It was
such a joy to see my grandkids, Jake 6 and
Tasha 3 and half, get so excited about seeing
and playing with Mickey and Minnie among
other magical things. I was so impressed
with the first class entertainment and
services provided by Disney. I thought
Disney "staged" its theme parks so
perfectly
for our experience; every corner we turned
and every ride we rode, the kids and the
children-at-heart just oo-ed and ahh-ed with
excitement.

NovusOne is a local custom home builder that
has been providing homes with solid quality
and architectural esthetics specializing in
Falls Church and North Arlington area. Such
is the home that is located on Ellison Street
in Falls Church right off of Broad Street and
close to I-66 and Tyson's Corner.
We were in Hawaii for a family reunion when we received a call from Weichert Realtor, Louise Molton, to stage her two-and-a-half-month-old listing - a spec home built by NovusOne. From 6,000 miles away, we assembled a staging team; a staging plan was developed by our team leader, Deb. Lights, Camera and a long day of staging Action, enhanced Ellison's already spectacular architectural features and this house was dressed beautifully, ready for any potential buyers. As Paul Harvey would say, you know the rest of the story! This upper bracket home is now wedded to a new homeowner after a mere 2 months of staging courtship. One of the matchmakers, Louise, says: "I had the opportunity to list a fantastic new contemporary home in Falls Church City that was both unique and exciting architecturally. Given the current market conditions, we realized that we needed to make the home stand out from all the rest. Staged Interior was recommended to me and I called Trish Kim to discuss the challenges that would be faced with staging this home. Although she was overseas at the time, she was able to coordinate her staff quickly and efficiently and within days the team was at the home with all the necessary staging equipment.We are thankful for the opportunity to work as team with NovusOne and Louise. Oh, by the way, in addition to being a successful Realtor, Louise has this precious business called SongCatchers, teaching children to experience music in a truly unique and memorable way. Check out the lessons for young musicians at www.SongCatchers.net. |
