Hello, and Welcome!
If you are on this page, that means Realtor, Meredith Carswell, of the Carswell Team sent you and you are getting ready to sell your home, recently moved into a new home, or about to do both.
Hi, I’m Jennifer Vaaler, a professional organizer. I have partnered with Meredith to offer the services below exclusive to her clients only. I appreciate you coming by!
Are you thinking about Staging your home to sell? Have you already made this decision?
Home Staging helps your house listing compete and outshine the other comparable homes on the market and appeals to the greatest number of potential buyers. It is the competitive edge for your house so you sell faster and for more money. It is a psychological and physiological strategy to turn your home into a desirable property to live.
Have you thought about using a Professional Organizer?
That’s where I come in.
Services
Decluttering
Benefits using an Organizer before moving and Home Staging:
- The staged home never looks cluttered and has plenty of places where viewers’ eyes can rest and use their imagination to visualize it with their own belongings.
- A decluttered home is about showing spatial proportion within a room, while making its key selling features stand out.
- A decluttered home creates a look and a feel within a home that helps buyers see the potential of living there rather than notice its faults or the specific tastes of current owners.
- Get a head-start on purging items and getting ready to pack.
- More professional looking photos of your home
Selling a home is emotional enough. Let me help you with the physical clutter. I’ll help you start and work beside you.
Limited Home Staging
Home Staging is more about de-accessorizing, depersonalizing and neutralizing the space as much as possible. As a Professional Organizer, I will work with what you already have for these areas.
If you are in need of Interior Design, renovation updates to your home, etc before selling, then I recommend hiring a Professional Home Stager to go along with my decluttering and organizing services.
After I’ve done my part, I’d be happy to work with a home-stager as an assistant, to help get things done faster.
