When looking for remodeling ideas, look no further than Houzz.
 It's the best design web site I have come across in years.  In my years
 of being in residential real estate, I have spent many of draining 
hours going through design showrooms, home design catalogues and 
searching online for the perfect products for my remodeling projects. Now that I have found Houzz, I don't need to leave my desk ... ]]> </description>

Before: Kitchen looks dirty &amp; dated.                  After: Kitchen looks clean &amp; fresh.

As a realtor, I have helped many homeowners prepare their home for sale. Every property is unique, but these basic guidelines and tips will help make your property shine.  

Homes that look good and are priced right sell fast and for the most money!

A recent Marin IJ story, &quot;Living Small&quot; spotlighted a very cool prototype
for a 2nd unit that is state of the art and energy
efficient.  It utilizes photovoltaic
panels, on-demand water heater, state mandated insulation, energy efficient
appliances and takes advantage of passive heating in winter months.  Many communities are making it &quot;somewhat&quot; easier to add
a second unit as a way to meet affordable housing goals. Think of all the possibilities from an in-law un... ]]> </description>

Are you considering remodeling your Marin County home before
you sell it?



Not all of your heartfelt choices will benefit the value of your home, if
you intend to cover your remodel costs with an increase in your home's value.
Some of your remodel choices will need to be balanced against sound financial
analysis and careful planning. In years past, it was normal to spend big bucks
on remodeling your kitchen. Gone are the days of a high return on a kitchen

When Clint and Kim started their search over a year ago for
their first home, they didn't want a cookie cutter home.  They were looking for charm, character,
something a little unique. They weren't disappointed!  The house that captured their imagination was located in Central San Rafael and had
been owned by Dr. William Galeno, the largest collector of Japanese armor in
the west. Remnants of the past could still be found in the house.   The
heirs, who were selling, the house clearly w... ]]> </description>

Perhaps you are preparing to move to another home locally or
across the country.  Maybe you are about
to embark on a major remodel of your home and need to move much of your
belongings out for a fixed period of time. 
Another scenario finds you getting ready to sell your home.  You've selected a realtor, met with the
stager and you need to make way for some important staging and accessorizing of
your main living areas.  Your garage is
already packed to the gills so what exact... ]]> </description>

Deck Views from Mill Valley  

As I was sitting on the deck of my Mill Valley home this morning, I was thinking about some friends who are getting ready to move. They asked me what they should do to get their house ready to sell. There are many things that can be done, many of them simple and quick, which can make your home more appealing to potential buyers. 

For most sellers, selling a home is an emotional time. The house isn't just four walls, it is a place where they have built memorie... ]]> </description>

Thanks to the Marin Modern Real Estate Team&nbsp;for inviting me to share my experiences and ideas on their Marin real estate blog.


Working as a stager in Marin, San Francisco and the entire Bay Area has been a very exciting challenge. When I started to stage homes here I was amazed at how dramatically diverse the areas are and by the many different styles of homes. It is common for me to be working on two or three projects at the same time. In Marin it could be a Mid Century Eichler or a Sp... ]]> </description>
