If you live close to Edmonton you might be interested in a workshop that I designed specifically for anyone considering a sprucing up of their home in the future. It’s part of Metro Continuing Education courses. Forewarned is forearmed as the old saying goes, and the success of any project is always in direct proportion to a person’s preparedness and knowledge. Here’s the official information about the course:

HOME RENO BOOTCAMP

“ Looking to give your home a facelift without breaking the bank?  Learn how to get the best renovation results for your buck. We’ll discuss what you can do yourself as well as tips on finding the best contractors for your needs. We’ll cover the pros and cons of different products such as flooring, lighting, paint and more.” 

This workshop will be held Friday, March 10 from 6:30 – 9:30 PM and Saturday, March 11th from 9AM – 3:30 PM. The cost is $149 and it’s being held at Avonmore School.

If you’ve decided to “list it” instead of “love it”, here’s another session I’ve designed for people who want to know how to make their homes standout when it comes time to sell. Due to the economic market right now, there are a large number of homes on the market so now, more than ever, it’s the things you know to do that will help to sell a home quickly and for the best price. Here’s the official writeup on this class:

HOW TO PREPARE YOUR HOME FOR RESALE

“Home staging is essential to creating a lasting impression for potential home buyers. The key to preparing your home for resale is careful planning and knowing how to artfully spruce it up. This session will help you look at your home through the buyer’s eyes and offers dozens of tips on how to enhance your home and turn it into an irresistible and marketable home that stands out from the crowd.”

This session is taking place soon, on Thursday, February 23rd from 6:30 – 9:30 PM. The cost is only $79 and it will be held at Harry Ainley School.
