Why Stage a Home?

There are a few components that form the answer for the question, "Why Stage a Home?" Below are the bullet points that provide a good cross section of beneficial reasons to use this home staging service.

  • The 2007 real estate market is not the same as it was last year. Houses need to have great curb appeal to compete and sell. Agents that offer this service will lead the pack.
  • Our members have this service exclusively, no other agent will be able to offer this service to their clients.
  • According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR) a home that is staged or primped will sell 50% faster than one that is not.
  • According to the Accredited Staging Professionals (ASP) a staged or primped home will sell for 6.9% more than one that is not.
  • Selling a home for more money, in less time, helps to relieve some of the stress in selling a home.
  • Our members are able to use the advertising and marketing pieces located in this web page to get more listings and earn more money.

Exclusive Remote Staging for Members of The Best real estate Agent 4u web site.

On April 24th, 2007 we negotiated an exclusive supplier agreement for our members and Brenda Paul, "The House Diva." Brenda offers her personalized home staging (primping) services to agents in the St. Catharines, Ontario area. She has had her own TV show where she showcased the art of stagging, or "primping" as she puts it, a home for sale on national TV. Recently Brenda opened up a remote staging service for out-of-town agents and was looking for an in into this market. That's where we came to the forefront of the conversation. We have been growing our own membership by 5 to 10 new members each week since January 2007 and we offer some nice benefits to a supplier like Brenda Paul.

Today we can announce a win - win - win business relationship with Brenda Paul and the exclusive members of the Best real Estate Agent 4U web site. As you will see, your clients will win, you will win and we will win too.

Our agreement in bullet points is as follows:

  • "The House Diva" and Brenda Paul and her employees will only provide their remote staging services to members, in good standing, of the Best Real Estate Agent 4u. You have the exclusively.
  • The fees will be $150.00 (cdn/plus taxes) for the remote staging service. You will receive a detailed written report for you to review with your clients. For an additional $25.00 Brenda, or her staff, will schedule a 30 minute telephone call directly with your clients and review the report with them personally, "LIVE, WITH THE HOUSE DIVA!"
  • Your first 30 minute telephone client review will be gifted to you to enable you to see the benefits of how this extra touching of your clients helps you win them over. Brenda has been a real estate agent for 20 plus years and she will work hard to make you look good in front of your clients or prospective sellers.

The House Diva Program Fees

This unique program is available no where else in the world. In fact, it has never been thought of before. Our members have it first and are the only ones who are bringing it to the market. It is our program for our members, exclusively. Now, that's a pretty good deal, I think. Here's the bad news. As hard as I have tried, Brenda refuses to work for free. I even used my "power house" close or her. I know I was so close, so very close, but we weren't able to come to terms on her dropping all of her present affairs and devoting her entire attention to us, and us only, and do it for nothing. Little did she know I was asking for the stars and would settle on the moon. Well, today, I think we are quite a bit past the moon, maybe, Pluto is where we came to terms and we have some great terms.

Brenda offers her services to our members for a fee of $150.00 per consultation and $25.00 for the additional, 30 minute, one-on-one with "The House Diva," to personally review her recommendations with your clients. During this additional gentle touching of your clients, Brenda's real estate sales experience will make you look good too and help you with the listing.

Payment can be made by cheque payable to Brenda Paul and you can contact her by clicking right here, or by going to her web site and following the links. If you're in a rush, payment can be made through the Best Real Estate Agent 4u by contacting us and using your credit card. There will be a $25.00 administration fee for each transaction we process on your behalf. This allows us to handle the all of the paperwork and issue payment to Brenda. Call 604-467-0754 from 9:00 am till 5:00pm (PST) or email Gord Moman to arrange for this.

How to use the House Diva Program.

Brenda will give you all of the details herself. In a nutshell, you take a minimum of three digital images of each room and email them to her. You may have to compress the images or make the files smaller so they can be emailed effectively. Should this program take off as it should, I will make a member upload page so you can get your images to Brenda in an easier fashion. Shortly after you have send your images to Brenda she will email your personalized Home Primping report for the property. Around the same time you can arrange for the 30 minute, on-one-on, client call. Now, I could keep going here and really complicate this program with rules and conditions, but it's really not necessary.

Pay as You Go

There are no monthly fees for this program, you pay as you use the service. As an exclusive member of the best real estate agent 4u web site you are able to use all of our "House Diva Home Staging" advertising and promotional materials to help you get more listing opportunities. By offering your clients more value than your competition, you will have less downward pressure on your commissions. When you have a new listing opportunity in front of you because of your use of this exclusive program and you need to seal the deal, this is the time to step-up and get the ball rolling on the "House Diva Home Staging" program. This is also the time that you will be required to pay for the services of Brenda Paul. By using this program and promoting it as a value added benefit for your clients you will earn more money directly related to the program.

For myself, I am happy to pay $175.00 for a new property listing, especially if I would not have the listing if it wasn't for the "House Diva Home Staging" program.

 

 

I put the Home Staging ad on the front page of one of my Maple Ridge, B.C. websites. On May 8th, 2007 I received a phone call from a Vancouver lawyer who had chose me to sell his acreage in Maple Ridge. He said that he was looking on-line and decide on me over the #1 RE/MAX agent in Western Canada. Wow! He went on to say he chose me because of the Home Staging service that I offered and the other didn't. Wow again! The real good news is that I have met with the new client on several occassions and he has assured me that I have his listing. The property is valued around $975,000 and it will be ready for sale in mid June 2007. This happened because of this page on this web site: http://www.maple-ridge-real-estate.com
