STAGING YOUR HOME
Did you know that staged properties spend 73% less time on the market? In fact, every Real Estate agent agrees that staging a property prior to listing is beneficial for everyone involved with the sale and purchase process. A staged home will show a buyer the true potential of a property. If and when any upgrades or repairs are needed, Yvonne will recommend them to you. All recommended repairs and upgrades are carefully selected by the staging consultant to ensure the house will be in market ready condition.
Here are some of the reasons why buyers are much more likely to purchase a staged property:
Staged properties look and show better than competing homes on the market that are not staged
Home sale preparation can increase the number of offers and raise the selling price
Buyers typically view staged listings as better-maintained
Agents recognize that staged listings are “move-in” ready and receive more foot traffic
Staged home photos and listings look better in print and internet ads
When a property is staged, buyers have less reasons to asks for concessions

Our Services
Home Staging Consultations
One of the key elements to a successful sale is working with a motivated seller that understands the importance of preparing their property prior to listing.
By offering a staging consultation to your sellers, you can be assured that each property you list will show its full value and potential, and will help to transform each homeowner into a motivated seller.
Yvonne’s goal is to be your strategic partner of choice throughout the entire staging process. From educating your clients on home staging to preparing during her consultation, she will support you, and your client, with a smile.
Regardless of the number of real estate listings you represent, your #1 goal should always be seller satisfaction.
That’s why every consultation is custom and is focused on achieving the best possible staging result for each house. Yvonne’s home staging consultations remove any guesswork from the process so you can concentrate on making the sale - and keeping your customers happy.
Colour Consultations
Our eyes can distinguish millions of different colours - no wonder it can be so hard to pick the right colour for the home you’re trying to sell! A coat of fresh paint is one of the most rewarding and cost effective upgrades you can make when you are preparing to sell your home. Colour can change the way a house feels, looks and flows. With the right colour, you can enhance focal points, connect rooms in the house or can make a room feel more spacious, cozy or comfortable. It can even improve a buyer’s mood when viewing the house!
Interior colours: Updating the interior colours of your home is one of the best ways to attract potential buyers and make the sale. As a certified Colour Consultant, Yvonne Laanstra will guide you through the colour fan deck with a smile, selecting paint colours that will make your home sell faster.
Exterior colours: The walk from the curb to the front door is a critical period for securing a sale. That’s why selecting the right colour for exterior finishes is a very important decision. A change in colour of a property’s siding, stucco, trim and doors will enhance the appeal of a property, refresh a dated look, and will give the buyer that crucial first impression.
Yvonne has years of experience selecting exterior colours for every type of home. In addition to working with many paint brands, she can provide clients with larger colour swatches for an easier selection process. Every colour consultation will be finished with a detailed written paint colour overview for you and the painter.
