"Hi Becky,
Just jotting off a quick email to say that it has been a complete pleasure to work with Jerry and Jessie. My website should be finished soon and they have both made every effort to make it wonderful. My business cards came even earlier than expected and I love them! I'm already on the first page of Google which is amazing.
I'm so glad I made the decision to come to Jacksonville.
Thanks,
Liz"

Don't you love this time of year? Our October class just staged a beautiful home. What fun!

 

(Because the best photos were taken by a professional, I could not resize them for upload. Here is the link to the blog where they are posted...

Here are some of my pictures...

Nancy's LR

 

Because we are a coastal city, we usually play up natural waterfront lifestyle living in our listings when we can.

This intracoastal neighborhood home reflects the atmosphere most desired by buyers coming to this area. The colors were streamlined and all extraneous art and accessories were removed. The beautiful view is the art.

 

This homeowner already had many accessories. We chose all the ones that stayed in our color family and repeated the coastal theme. The homeowner had a lovely navigational chart of the area waterways framed for the breakfast area. You can find charts at your local marine supply stores.  

 

  I recall once using beautiful brown fish netting under a composition of appetizer plates and wine glasses for a beach

listing open house. Sugar starfish and palmetto branches completed the table. This is called "Lifestyle" Staging. LR 

The furniture in this home was repositioned to expose the two focal points... the pool and the 2-story fireplace. Large pieces came out of the siteline from the front door.  The master bedroom

just needed neutralizing a bit. Captivating!

Fall is one of my favorite times of the year. Time for new beginnings and starting fresh... time for getting back into school perhaps.
