Not all homes on the real estate market are in foreclosure

All the negative news coming at us from every direction is sucking many of us in and we aren't stepping back to look at things from a more balanced perspective.

The state of the real estate market is not as bad as the media would like us to believe.

As an example, you may be hearing that the only houses on the real estate market right now are those in foreclosure, but that’s really not the case. It's true that some homeowners are losing their homes to foreclosure, but others need to move for ordinary reasons: marriage, divorce, a growing family, downsizing, job transfer and retirement.

For more information on this topic, click here to read a post on the Home Staging Business Report that goes into further detail.

Home Staging brings two offers to stale listing


Staging Diva Graduate, Kathy Vernon of Staged by Dream Weavers, saw from her first home staging project that staging a home really does work.

Kathy was asked to stage a home that had been sitting on the real estate market for two years with no activity on it. The first couple through the home after it was staged put in an offer, and the homeowners were thrilled that there was also a back up offer in place should the first deal fall through.

You can read more about Kathy's story here at the Home Staging Business Report.
