Grateful doesn't even begin to describe the emotions running through me today as I reflect on the incredible journey that began 9 years ago. A life-changing car accident forced me to stand at a crossroads, uncertain of the path ahead. Little did I know, destiny had already paved the way.
In the competitive world of real estate, innovation and collaboration are key to achieving outstanding results. The partnership between Michael Botkin Real Estate and Elephant in the Room exemplifies how thinking outside the box can breathe new life into stagnant listings. As homeowners continue to seek efficient and effective real estate solutions, this collaboration sets a benchmark for future success in the industry.
Unlocking the potential of a luxury home in the competitive real estate market requires a strategic combination of the right realtor and expert staging. The successful staging project at 514 N. Park Ave showcases the impact of thoughtful staging in accelerating the sale of high-end properties. Elephant in the Room, in collaboration with Michael Botkin Real Estate, demonstrated that even in a challenging market, the right combination of staging and realtor expertise can turn a property into a sought-after gem. This downtown Indianapolis residence is not just a home; it's a testament to the art of presentation in the world of real estate.
Angela Arnold of Elephant Home Staging knows that even if you choose an awe-inspiringly gorgeous mirror, your job is only half-way done.
“Mirrors are powerful when used correctly in any space. “The key to using mirrors correctly is to never forget that they become what they reflect,” Arnold says. In smaller bathrooms, this can mean investing in a well-designed shower curtain or piece of artwork — anything that adds a bit of depth to the room will work.
“When choosing where to place the mirror, consider the goals and current challenges of the space,” she adds.
A few years ago I had the distinct pleasure of representing Indiana in the article “Home Staging Secrets to Appeal to Buyers in Your City.” which was featured on Redfin. So when Lexi Klinkenberg, author at Redfin, reached out with this article I was happy to be able to return the favor and feature Redfin as part of my regular blog!
I’m approached at least once month with someone wanting to be featured on this blog. I always look at the content and am amazed when the writer approaching me doesn’t even mention staging or relevant real estate tips! This is the first time I’ve featured a guest blogger. I found Lexi’s blog relevant and helpful as everyone is navigating our “new normal”. I hope you enjoy her article as much as I did!

This year was Ah-mazing….and intense. I realized I’ve been living (un)comfortably inside my discomfort zone for a solid decadeYou’d think, by now, I’d be comfortable in my discomfort zone. I’m not. It has made me a better surfer though…at least on land.
