“Go Get ‘Em Tigers”   I love baseball all the time, but especially major league,   and when the hometown playersdown at the Tiger’s stadium are on a winning streak. Bob Seeger’s in the crowd tonight(his hair’s as lustrous as palladium) reminding us that it’s been years and yearssince we've seen the Tiger's at their peak...way back in ’68- ium!      My choice in Pitching? Why it is Max Schwerzer, with Valverde racking up the saves(more than thirty-nine. ) Batting?  Now I’m thinking back to the '68 World Series 11 hits including 2 home runs, 8 RBIs,and our hero Al Kaline!   “Go Get “Em Tigers!” was the cry and we’ll sing it once again, here’s to Mom and Apple Pie to Baseball, and it’s fans.       (Photo of Max Schwerzer courtesy of WikiMedia).           ##       09/05/2011

Working on a project now where there is evidence of mice.   We all know that mice like to come into houses just to keep warm or to to enjoy the AC.  It really doesn't have a lot to do with cleanliness of the home owner.   I has to do with having a door way in.   My brother has a cabin up North that's abandoned for several months at a time and the mice like to come in a visit     He  told me, years ago, to place a bucket of water in a room with a little bleach in it ad a little ramp to get into the water but they can't get out.  Apparently the mice can't swim for a long time and they drown and the bleach will keep down the odors.   While working on this project I thought that I would give the bucket a little try.   Within hours of the basement being left alone poof we had one little culp... 08/10/2011

Missing Mortgage Payments? It's Not Too Late Wondering what a homeowner should expect when payments are missed? The most important thing to know is that no matter what stage of default a homeowner is in, there is almost always a way to avoid foreclosure. That being said, the quicker a homeowner does something about the situation, the less challenging it will be to resolve. First, here's what a distressed homeowner should expect to happen when payments are missed: 30 Days Late: The lender will attempt phone contact or send a notice in the mail. 60 Days Late: The lender will attempt to make contact by phone and follow up with another letter in the mail. 90 Days Late: The lender will send a letter demanding all past due amounts within 30 days and start the foreclosure process. 120 Days or ... 07/13/2011

Now who could pass up a model train set up in a back yard?   Hundreds of feet of track, dozens of buildings and all the towns people to go with it. Take a tour of the set up with me and see how similar it is to staging.   Bloomfield Twp Railway Garden Tour  This caught my attention in the local free newspaper that delivered to all residences in many cities.  I love it for a quick review of what's going on. My husband and I thought it was such an interesting thing to do, on a July (hot & muggy) Sunday morning, and we could walk to it and enjoy a few minutes. To our surprise the few minutes turned into about an hour or more. It similar to  going into a Sunday Realtor Open House thinking that you'll have a quick walk through and then actually looking through every room, crook and cranny th... 07/19/2010

Our complex had an informational meeting the other night about amending our by-laws and other paperwork to keep our homeowners association FHA approved, some of the owners were actually against it.  I have been speaking with a few neighbors since this came up and here was their problem (keep in mind I was furious when I started hearing this), they thought it may attract buyers that were less than desirable due to the lower down payment required by FHA and if there were any special assessments they may not be able to afford them and eventually end up in bankruptcy or foreclosure.  My blood began to boil and I vented my frustration towards the people making these ridiculous assumptions with the following facts: 1. If they ever have a problem selling their homes because approved FHA buyers... 06/10/2010

I realize that many of you warm climate stagers don't understand the challenges that we go through.  Yes I do know that you are having a cold snap.  Gee what is it this week 60 degrees :-) Last weekend we de-staged a home, during a snow storm, in Madison Heights.  That means getting the supplies damp, slipping and sliding on the ice walks and driveways.  Try loading your car when there is no purchase for your shoes on the ground.   Right after that we had to stage another vacant in Royal Oak. Understand how complicated it is  by understanding that vacant house have to be winterized.  That means turning off the water and putting anti-freeze in all the pipes and TOILETS.  We women have to know where the nearest fast food restaurant, with facilities, is.   There are no utilities when the h... 12/26/2009

I know that you all think that I'm making this stuff up.  No way.  This is an actual estate that I've been working on. The family loved living with wallpaper and saw no need to change it. The home is now neutral, warm and inviting Yes the closet was wallpapered ♠ Wallpaper is gone and hardwood floors exposed The closet paper matched the walls of the master bedroom This is the same room.  The paper is done and the hardwood floors exposed.   I can't tell you what a pleasure it has been to work on this home and make this transformation. ♠ Two months of preparation including the estate sale. Please vist my posts on the kitchen transformation Changing the Family Room The laundry room transformation Bathroom♠   12/06/2009

We all know that all our president has to do is create a rule or say there is an emergency and it's done. Look at the swine flu.  He said there was a epidimec and 'pow' two weeks later is was gone. Let's get him to impose a rule on wall paper.  The glue must self destruct after 5 years. The wall paper should just vaporize. Wouldn't that make our lives just a bit easier?       Kitchen Before   After Stage-Show-Sell, LLC crew attacked the offending paper Breakfast room and Butler's pantry after.       I love what I do.   No Where Else Could I Make Such a Change.       11/29/2009

Old ceiling post  I realize that I'm miking this project into several posts :-) There is no way that I'm going to work my heart and soul out for two months and put up one set of before and after pictures.     This was one of the ugliest bathrooms that I've ever seen.  The wall paper itself was bad.  The shutters, yellow tiles and yellow sinks added to the eye strain. I love the flower toilet seat   I was expecting mold under the paper since it was a damp room and the shutters allowed no light.  It was a surprise to find good walls underneath   The double sink was replaced with a sink sink and a marble looking counter top Th medicine cabinet and and light fixture had to stay for economy purposes. We used the same mirror and framed it. I have a wonderful crew.  Wall paper strippers, paint... 11/29/2009

almost a year ago I wrote a blog about taking it all off and how the extra details mean a lot.   Right now I'm working on two estate and the same time.  This has really been a challenge.   One is a nice little condo in Royal Oak that has been on the market for 2 years.  Other units have been slowly selling around it and this one has stayed on the market. The realtor brought me in thinking that I could do some magic. The first thing that struck me was the front door knocker.   Being a condo we needed to stay in the same theme as everyone else so I made a great change with a little polish. This is what it looked like the first day.   And then the next day.   Do you think this will make a difference?   The 2nd Estate is in Bloomfield Township.  It was built in 1963 and has had very few upd... 11/18/2009

Once a month I meet with a networking group. Today I wanted to get a little more visual On the Art of Staging. This is what I looked like when I stood in line waiting for the doors to open.   Can you believe no one spoke to me while we were waiting for the doors to open. Not only that................. No One talked to me during the open networking part of the meeting. TTL, they didn't kick me out for being a vagrant. I started my talk (two minutes) with "Well ladies and gentlemen NO ONE spoke to me during the networking time"   Was that because I didn't look what you expected.  My dress (house) was not internet ready. This is what many homes look like on the Internet because they are not staged. I took the hat off and said "There is nothing wrong with this hat"   It just doesn't look go... 07/16/2008
