Staging #1: Pictures

November 23, 2009

My wife, our baby and I headed down to Tallahassee last week so that my wife could complete her first official staging job — a model apartment for a 350-unit complex.

House #12: Fourth Offer

November 11, 2009

We received another offer on The Mini House yesterday… The offer was lower than we were looking for, but given that we’re going into the slow season, the deadline for the tax credit has essentially passed, and the fact that with the recent flooding in Atlanta a lot of houses in that neighborhood have gotten […]
