This month's article I wrote for the East Gwillimbury bulletin is called, "Spring has Sprung, but in the House?" Simply click through each photo to read What do you think about this story? Let me know below!... The Bulletin Magazine

SOLD OVER ASKING LIST PRICE - $899,000 SOLD PRICE- $940,000... Days on market -6 It was our pleasure to work with this client for a second time. She followed our recommendations to a t and her property showed amazingly well once again. Here are a few words that she shared with us on HOUZZ.com Susan has staged two of my houses, both of which showed exceptionally well brining it multiple offers and sold well over asking. I trust in her process, She is respectful and guides you through the important decluttering and editing out process to make your home look bigger and welcoming. She has an amazing ability to work with the furniture and pieces you have to keep the time and costs down. The bonus is, I've learned new ways to break-up and display my furniture and items when I move to my next house! In fact, I had less pre-staging prep homework this time around because I learned so much from working with her the first time! Then Susan and her team comes in with her staging team and items from the warehouse to prefect the look. The result is House + Home magazine, meets real-life livable.

Just last month we were asked to stage a property in Barrie which was great because it was in our radius of work. The funny part is that the referral came from Sault Ste. Marie It just so happens that my dear friend’s daughter, Erica is a mortgage specialist in the Sault where I grew up. Erica was working with an agent from the Sault that was looking for a Home Stager in the Barrie area. Erica knew that I would be a great fit so she referred Gabby Travaglini, from Exit ...Realty to call me and connect. Gabby was thrilled that she received a trustworthy referral and called us straight away! We were able to meet Gabby’s clients, look at the vacant property and sent over a proposal for the staging within 48 hours! The townhome was staged within 3 days and hit the market. This townhome was a new build in a brand new area close to the go station It sold for over $800,000 Gabriella Travaglini, Real Estate Agent EXIT Realty Lake Superior Erica Aceti Royal Bank of Canada Mobile Mortgage Specialist

Sold for $1,830,000 It was our pleasure to work with this amazing seller and assist on getting this property in tip top shape! From start to finish, our team enjoyed designing and staging this home. It is not surprising that a buyer came through in no time at all and scooped up this property ... Here is what our client had to say about our staging: Susan and her team of stagers did a great job of setting up my home to show the best for my sale. Unlike some homes I've seen when staged, which looked completely fabricated, Susan used my own furniture and accessories, added some of her own items here and there, and made it look just perfect, but still realistic. I'm going to use some of her decorating ideas to spruce up my new place on my own now. She has an amazing eye for what fits and looks good. The team was quick to set up and take down, and very down to earth. Thanks for all your hard work!

Tip Tuesday Lights! Camera! Listing! One thing on my check list before we leave a staged property are the lights...... Do they all work? Are they all the same type of light colour? Are they the right size for the fixture? All of these questions are important because once we complete the staging of a property, we typically have the photographer arriving shortly after to take the photos for the MLS listing. It is important to have all the lights on and working since lighting can affect the mode and atmosphere of a room. To keep things simple, I prefer to use bulbs that are warm white, 2700K to 3000K!

Sometimes short timelines and personal situations only permits us to do a consultation on properties for our clients and agents! Having the skills to know what items to delete from a room and where to move the furniture in a short amount of time is critical. I can visualize how the mls photos will capture the property even before the photo are taken. ... 14 years in the staging business brings results! This condo sold for $30k over the asking price.

Martin Designs 09.12.2020

SOLD $91,000 over list price!! 2 happy sellers -why? Their property sold in only 2 days just before Christmas.... 13 offers why? Because it was presented in the best light possible and negotiated with a top producing agent, Jennifer Clements, from ReMax Realtron Turnkey 68 showings why? Because the property was priced right, staged and was move in ready. We are proud to be a part of the proven formula that gets the job done with top results!!

#FBF Ever since Danielle was a young girl, she has been fascinated by the arts and anything and everything creative. She grew up spending time with me in my old studio, while I worked, she painted, she drew, she made her canvas whatever she could get her hands on! Danielle has always had the vividest of imaginations. Growing up I always told her, Your imagination and creativity is something that nobody can take away from you. Her ability to think outside the box, her natura...l skills and talent and her imagination have always been some of her greatest strengths. Danielle’s passion for the arts have always been a huge part of her life, but it really peaked when she started at the Haliburton School of Art & Design. She always says, Those 3 years at art & design school really helped shape me into the creator and person that I am today. I discovered my power, my voice, my spiritual connection to the divine, and uncovered the true essence of who Danielle really is and what I am capable of. For the past year, Danielle has been working on building her brand, The Shapeshifter, a brand she started developing during her time at school. She specializes in creating hand drawn illustrations before digitalizing them. She has always seen her distinctive designs on a larger scale, and recently has taken action to pursue her vision by starting to create murals. In fact, she’s been connecting with businesses and municipalities to create inspiring and imaginative murals and public art. The next year looks bright for Danielle. She is planning on releasing a colouring book with her designs, along with other products and apparel!

I talk a lot about the importance of my warehouse, my jam-packed stockroom is filled with a little bit and in some cases a lot of everything. From throw pillows, to vases, soap dispensers, art, rugs, chairs OH MY! I could go on, but you get the idea. I always have enough stock to fill somewhere between 15 and 20 homes. Oftentimes because I have several projects on the go, but also because every home is different and it’s my job to show your home in its best possible light. T...he thing is I don’t know what I am going to need to do until I enter the home and conduct a complete assessment, so I need to be at the ready, not to mention the tight turnaround times that are often at play.

The market is still HOT, HOT, HOT, especially for properties that are move in ready! A recent client of mine was eager for a quick sale of his home, so he brought me in early and took all of my recommendations to heart. He was ready, willing, and able to do whatever was needed to get the best return on his investment. The work we did involved painting the house in very warm neutral colours. The client was amazed at how well the colour coordinated with his existing flooring, k...itchen cabinets, as well as his furniture. The house was cleaned from top to bottom. We also removed some of his furnishings and décor and brought in some from my warehouse which would help to show his property in its best possible light. His house was completely transformed! Go ahead, see for yourself In the end, this home sold with 3 offers, in 1 DAY, for 35k over asking! Talk about a quick sale and maximizing ROI, needless to say, my client was thrilled.

Halloween decorating tips! Earlier this week I staged a client’s property, this time of year staging a home includes Halloween decorations. His pumpkins looked great, but I knew the decorations could look better. I moved them, so they weren’t grouped all together and brought in corn stalks to add some height and depth to the décor. I also opened the corn husks which added a pop of colour to the background. Small details make all the difference! More tips to come later this w...eek stay tuned! Beautifying homes, one at a time!

The staging looked incredible! I really appreciate all your help and expertise in staging 4 of my properties over the course of the last 6 years - I feel so incredibly lucky that I had you on my team each time. Every property had its own unique challenges, but you always made it look easy. In fact, you put me at ease so much so that I didn’t even need to meet up with you during the last two projects, I just let you do your thing! And I had the foresight with the last 2 prope...rties to bring you in at the very early stages (before I interviewed or selected a realtor). This allowed me to get my property on the market quickly, because I focused on the right areas and did not go too far with renovations. Just a few more thoughts. You are incredibly talented. You are a fantastic communicator. Your cool under pressure. I am still in shock with what you were able to do with my ugly bathrooms and kitchens and renovation. - Laura This most recent project began with a comprehensive list which walked Laura through exactly what she needed to keep and what needed to go into storage for the staging of the cottage. We measured and ordered custom blinds for the widows. We picked paint colours, updated flooring, brought in beautiful lighting. Instead of gutting the bathroom we chose colours and accessories that aligned with the rest of the home, but brought out the best in the bathroom. We painted the bedrooms, set up furniture, brought in bedding, art, side tables, and other accessories. Overall, I would say the cottage had a warm, welcoming feel. With 20 showings, this property sold very quickly, and for 96% of asking! Beautifying homes, one at a time!

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead. - The Beatles - Earlier this year we said goodbye to our first cottage, Reflection Bay. And as I sit down to contemplate and write my thoughts and feelings on this big change, I now realize how aptly we named our home away from home. After 7 years of fun, laughter, food, family, and friends, this was a bittersweet day. It’s hard to describe the feeling of packing up the last few boxes, closing the door... and turning the key for the last time, and then taking the final trip down the driveway and turning into the road. The memories we made there will always stay close to my heart, from our first thanksgiving, to our last day on the dock and everything in between. I am so thankful for all of it, every minute of every day we were blessed to spend there. We met the best neighbours and friends in Rich and Janet and even though we are no longer there, this friendship will last a lifetime. I am excited for the new owners; they are making their own special memories there now. If only the walls could talk! There are places I'll remember all my life, though some have changed, some forever, not for better, some have gone, and some remain all these places had their moments with lovers and friends, I still can recall, some are dead and some are living. In my life, I've loved them all. - The Beatles - #fbf #flashbackfriday #family #friends #design #homedesign #staging #stager #homestaging #homedesigner #interiordesign #designer #homestager #familyvacation #cottagelife #cottaging @eastgwillimburychambers

Why Your Upgrades and Renovations are Never Enough! After spending weeks, months or even years upgrading or renovating a property, homeowners often feel that these improvements to their house will translate into an easy sale. Especially when the home has undergone major renovations, the before and after can be so striking that the sellers feel that potential buyers will love their property as much as they do.

This is the story of a recent project I completed that I could not be more excited about! For this design project I was hired by a repeat client to help with the design of their brand-new build. Our first meet was at the home, so I could get a feel for the space and start envisioning the final design. Next, we went to the design center, so I could start piecing together the tiles ensuring they integrated seamlessly with the existing wood flooring. The challenge being you wan...t each room to stand on their own and have it’s own look and feel, at the same time you want each room to connect to one another keeping a consistent overall look for the entire home. I tend to lean towards more trendy tiles, the price tag, admittedly, is a little higher than their more dated counterparts, but I know this home will not be updated for years and years to come. So, it is best to do it right the first time, as it will save you time and money down the road. Be aware that when I say trendy, I mean stylish trendy, it’s important to select styles that will stand the test of time and won’t scream This home was updated in 2020!.

Testimonials, referrals, repeat business, word of mouththat is how I built and grew my business. Here is yet another success story! Susan was referred to our family by our Real Estate Broker and friend (Bill Cowan Realtor).

They put together a design plan that was elegant and stylish incorporating our traditional pieces with her modern design. Our home looked am...azing and sold within 5 days over asking!

In theory, design and staging seem like pretty simple concepts. A little paint, some decluttering, rearranging furniture, and VOILA! there you have it a beautifully staged room. Not so fast! Staging is about highlighting a home’s strengths and minimizing its weaknesses and is more complex than a few quick adjustments. When I take on a project, I start by doing an in-depth analysis of the property, I take copious notes, and create a comprehensive plan for the entire home. Befo...re I make any changes to the space, I can see every last detail of the final design. Everything from colours to lighting, textures, furniture placement, accessories, groupings, and how all these changes will come together. I am not exaggerating when I say I can see absolutely every detail before I make any changes to the home. This property was on the market earlier this year and did not sell. Once we designed and staged it, it sold in less than a week for 100% of asking Beautifying homes, one at a time!

SOLD!! This beautiful detached 3+1 bedroom, 3 bathroom family home is officially off the market! When you take a moment to imagine yourself drinking morning coffee on the front porch, entertaining friends in the private backyard, or having family dinners in the open concept kitchen/dining room it’s really not hard to understand why the home got snatched up so quickly. Congratulations to the home sellers, home buyers, who are both embarking on exciting new life adventures! A...nd of course, a shoutout to the agents, Michele Brannigan and Jillian Dobson, who made it all happen. #MakingDreamsComeTrue Beautifying homes, one at a time!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Carol McMahon for the incredible testimonial! My work is an absolute labour of love, made even better with words like these! "I highly recommend Susan for any decorating, design, colour consulting, and most of all staging services. Our recently staged house showcased as a "10" as a result of her incredible talents and ended in a quick sale 1 week later! Thanks, so much, Susan, and to your amazing team." #staging #homestaging #homestager #stager #homedesign #homedesigner #design #designer #yorkregion #aurora #newmarket #gta #toronto #416 #905 #homeforsale #homesold #sold #realestate #realtor #eastgwillimbury @eastgwillimburychamber
