Quick Fixes on the Fly

Sometimes we work on properties that need a little tweaking after the first staging phase.  Its impressive how small the changes can be that make a huge difference. One property in Medford a few years ago kept getting feedback from buyers that they were looking for something "a little more modern."  We swapped out the formal living room furniture for a low-slung modern sectional and white shag carpet from Ikea, and changed the dining room light fixture from a traditional-looking one to a modern and interesting looking chrome and glass fixture that we found on discount from one of our suppliers.  (We kept the other chandelier and used it on a later project.)  These small changes were enough to completely change new visitors' impressions of the property.... go figure!
