How $150 Can Sell Your Listing!
 
Staging an occupied home is no longer a luxury - it's a requirement. 
 
How to do it affordably?
Spend $150. 
 
Hire Set The Stage for our "One Hour Stage."  We'll deliver a consultation that helps sellers clearly see what they need to do to properly market their home.  They get a complete plan, and a set of to-do's.   
 
More importantly - they're on board.
 
After that, POLISH IT UP.
 
Sellers pay only $750, and we come back to stage and style the home from top to bottom.  A killer deal that hugely enhances the chance of a quick sale with strong offers.
 
This program is SO EFFECTIVE that many agents won't bring on a listing without it.

A Note From Patty
A big thank you to the Maple Valley John L. Scott Office for inviting me to present to their agents.  Broker Kim Emmons bought lunch and we had a fun and informative half hour together.  They were especially delighted by the quick "staging vignettes" I whipped up using some of my favorite staging props - faux food.   
 
You may not know that I graduated from college with a triple major of theatre, speech and secondary education.  That training makes me a very effective presenter and helps me in my business every day.
 
I'd love to talk to your office.  Ten minutes to a half hour or more; tell me what you need, and I'll deliver a fun and informative presentation. 
Call me today!  206.910.9314.
 
With sincere thanks,
