How do you prep for a first date?

This week at the Go Show one of our Rockstar agents, Christine Danko, gave an amazing presentation on staging.  She compared staging to dating.  Genius, right?!?!  So I am stealing her idea and using it here for my blog.  It's just that great, I have to share it!

So on a first date, would you dress like this? Sweat pants [with paint stains] and baseball cap?? The answer should be NO!

  (1) Make sure you hide your perscription drugs and alcohol!

(2) You should make sure your roof is in tip top shape!  [Remove the baseball cap & insert hair bow]

(3) Your walls should be neutral colors.  [Remove plaid shirt]

(4) You should also make sure that your carpets are cleaned or replaced! [Remove sweat pants and tennis shoes]

TA! DA!  That girl looks ready for a first date!!!!  It is really that simple.  You should present your home to the open market like you would present yourself on a first date.  You want only winners, right?!?!

 Here's to dating Christine, I won't tell your husband! lol
