Kasia McDaniel of Blue Diamond Staging, www.bluediamondstaging.com & Lori
Gisler of Caring Transitions, www.CaringTransitionsSandhillsNC.com are our
expert guests to assist Sellers with great information to help them create
the most positive setting for the seamless sale of their home.

Kasia focuses on the staging process of a home, both outside and inside, to
maximize curb appeal, good internal visuals and the look of a blank canvas
that enables the buyer to see their things in the home, rather than the
sellers.

Lori specializes in working with our civic generation homeowners who are in the process of downsizing, decluttering and prioritizing the things they
want to take with them since many of them will be moving from large homes to
smaller apartment & cottage dwelling of significantly less square feet of
living space.

Blue Diamond Staging and Caring Transitions can be found on Facebook.
