Don't be "That Cross House" -- remove potentially distracting decor when preparing your home for sale...

I have long advocated for staging homes for sale so they show well and buyers can see the home in its most favorable condition...and while you may love your wall of all the crosses you have collected for years, often times this sort of décor is a little distracting to buyers. It may turn some people off if they are not religious, make the room look unnecessarily darker or smaller than it is, or buyers might label your house "that cross house" when referring to it later and forget all of the great things about it. I bring my go-to stager into my upcoming listings before they go onto the market so that she can make recommendations. In this room, she advised the seller to remove the crosses and thin out the furnishings, and pack them up for her future move. She did, and it made a huge difference in the feel of the room. She made similar changes in the rest of the house. And ultimately, this home got 4 offers on it in just a few days on the market, and sold for $10,000 over the listing price. A little strategic preparation can pay off big time.

Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson - pays one last visit to the Sacramento Association of Realtors...

Yesterday, the City of Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson visited the Sacramento Association of Realtors. He spoke briefly to our Government Relations Committee about his last months as mayor, and the transition to incoming Mayor Darrell Steinberg...no matter what you think of his tenure in office, think back to 10 years ago and what Sacramento was like, and how it has evolved. It's changed immensely. For the better. And for that, we thank you.

Re-elected to a 4th term on the Sacramento Association of Realtors Board of Directors...

If you have been reading my blog for a while, you will already know that in 2010 I was elected to serve as a member of the Board of Directors for the Sacramento Association of Realtors...since election to the 2011-2012 term, I have been re-elected to 2013-2014, 2015-2016, and as of this week I was re-elected to serve my fourth term 2017-2018. I love being able to serve the membership of the association at that level. Per SAR's bylaws, a director can only serve four consecutive terms without either moving up to a higher position (like Secretary/Treasurer for example), or sitting out a term. I can tell you I have no plans to sit the next term out...I look forward to great things to come!
