This can lead to clients who do not have enough equity from the old home, to purchase the new home. It has been said that these people may walk away from their down payments, leaving the builder with a property that's been custom built. These properties are harder to sell because the first client has made personal choices that may not appeal to the next. Let us show you why builders use our services as an incentive to new buyers, assisting in a smooth transition into the new home. We work with builders in the area, helping their prospective buyers sell their existing homes. For example, some builders offer incentives that pay for our services to improve the marketability of the existing property. Our program concentrates on three areas: physical condition of the property, aesthetic presentation and marketing strategy. We offer fixed price packages. Contact us for pricing details.]]> http://www.weprephomes.com/web/for_builders/why_builders_use_our_services_1.html http://www.weprephomes.com/web/for_builders/why_builders_use_our_services_1.html Mon, 19 Feb 2007 10:51:42 -0500 These homeowners were very concerned about the market, so they decided to sell before they put a contract on their new construction home. They were delighted with our results. We prepped this house in one day, after it went on the market it received 141 hits from one Internet site in fewer than 3 days. They received two offers and now have a ratified contract. ]]> http://www.weprephomes.com/web/projects/south_riding_single_family_1.html http://www.weprephomes.com/web/projects/south_riding_single_family_1.html Projects and Testimonials Tue, 06 Feb 2007 18:02:02 -0500 If you're selling, you want top dollar, and a sale in the shortest amount time. Presenting a property for market in near perfect condition no longs puts you at the head of the pack; it's what is expected from buyers. It was said a few years ago, that for every week you wait, your property increases by $1000. Recently, a Realtor was heard saying "for every week you wait in this market you LOSE $10,000." So, sellers need to get ready, just as quickly as possible. If you're staying, you want a house you can be proud of. Isn't it so true that the second you have people over, you see the finger prints on the wall, the dirty chandelier, the moldy caulking in the bathroom. Doesn't it always seem that when are having company, family or friends, something nasty rears it's ugly head? You may all of the sudden look up and see the cobwebs in your kitchen? Open the freezer and want to slam it shut! Walk your friends into your dining room and realize that there's a gross stain on your carpet! Open the shower curtain for your mother-in-law, and realize that the caulking is moldy, or the tile is dirty! Or maybe you suddenly realize that the 90's are over and you're paint is out of date. It may be as simple as your neighbor showing up at your front door for a cup of sugar, and you suddenly feel like you live in chaos. Somehow we don't seem to see it when no one is around, but when someone shows up, whatever it is, and there is always something that seems to sick out like a sore, embarrassing thumb! So, no matter if you're selling or staying, we can supply you design support, labor/trade specialists and a quick turn around time to manage whatever project you have, big or small. We've done it all, seen it all and can make suggestions that won't break the bank! Call us today to schedule your Action Strategy Consultation so you can get ready for whatever it is that's in your future! ]]> http://www.weprephomes.com/web/for_individuals/help_for_busy_people_2.html http://www.weprephomes.com/web/for_individuals/help_for_busy_people_2.html Wed, 24 Jan 2007 13:57:48 -0500 We work with clients who are not moving, but haven't the time, nor the contacts to get their house in order.

The agent was thrilled with the number of calls he received, and within a few weeks the property sold.]]> http://www.weprephomes.com/web/projects/results_realty_1.html http://www.weprephomes.com/web/projects/results_realty_1.html Thu, 04 Jan 2007 15:37:39 -0500 Thank you so much for all your help.

It was nice, but lacked the pop it needed to stand out from the rest. The homeowner and builder were both concerned because this client's new home was about ready for delivery. We performed a deep clean, staged it and produced virtual tours. They got a contract and were able to take delivery of their new home within 3 week of our service. The homeowner sent us a thank you note and referred to our work as "magic". It may or may not be magic, but it works! ]]> http://www.weprephomes.com/web/projects/south_riding_townhouse_project.html http://www.weprephomes.com/web/projects/south_riding_townhouse_project.html Projects and Testimonials Mon, 01 Jan 2007 05:07:00 -0500 I just wanted to touch base with you.

This is the first “fun” thing we’ve done since putting the house on the market. Your energy and enthusiasm are great (and refreshing). I really liked the fact that you were able to share your knowledge of the market and industry plus help us with the “staging” ideas. I told my neighbor about you and will give her your contact info as soon as we get a contract ;-) . (They have the corner house on our street that just came on the market).

Thanks so much!!

When we contacted the homeowner, he told us that they had one interested couple; the husband loved it, but the wife did not. After visiting the property on the Internet, it was clear why. The home lacked warmth. We brought in furnishings to give the home personality, performed handyman services, did some difficult cleaning, and re-shot all of the marking materials, They ratified a contract within 2 weeks after 'WePrep(ped)' the property. ]]> http://www.weprephomes.com/web/projects/gainesville_project.html http://www.weprephomes.com/web/projects/gainesville_project.html Projects and Testimonials Sun, 19 Nov 2006 06:41:42 -0500
