Welcome to another episode of “What’s Working Now!”Today, I’m reporting to you live from my listing at 3201 Garfield Street NW…On the edge of Cleveland Park…Last summer, we sold this house for over $1,600,000…But the story began 3 years earlier…The owners hired another agent…Who failed to sell their house in 3 months…Frustrated, they took it off the market…Then, three years later…A mutual friend referred them to me…That was last August…You all know how I feel about staging…And something shocking happened at the Garfield house…That demonstrates exactly how important staging is…In many cases, home staging has helped my sellers net an extra $100,000…Or even more…Sometimes, though, a motivated buyer will get a sneak preview…Before the house is ready…I invited an agent and her prospective buyers over to the Garfield house…She was working with a family of four…They came into the dining room…The sellers had their wedding guest list on the wall…The agent noticed it…She couldn’t take her eyes off of it…And she told her buyers…“Come over here and see who’s invited to the wedding.”
