Save on Paint: Take ANY Sherwin Williams paint color name or code and Home Depot can duplicate it. You'll save $35+ a gallon.

Mauve went out in the 80s. Pass.

She reminds me of Dr. Phil’s wife

Love love this house ❤ and the way you present it makes it even more special and beautiful .

I've been keeping a close eye on the housing market, and prices have been surging for years. It's becoming increasingly challenging for first-time buyers to break in. For someone with a $400,000 reserve, diversification could involve exploring a mix of investments, such as equities, fixed-income securities, real estate investment trusts (REITs), and perhaps alternative assets like gold or cryptocurrency, depending on risk tolerance and financial goals.

After the NAR ruling buyer's agents are no longer required to be paid by the seller's/listing agent. That means the buyer's agent will be paid by the buyer with funds outside of the mortgage that will add to the closing costs for the buyer? Also, in the scenario you mentioned with a buyer entering into a contract with the seller's agent is then entitled to a representation fee? Isn't dual agency illegal in some states? The seller's agent works for the seller, with their interests being the priority. Isn't the home buyer representing themselves? Why would the seller's agent be entitled to another commission by the would-be buyer?

Hi Audra - SO HAPPY I found you about a year ago! You have amazing videos and advice! Getting ready to sell in VA. A ranch with an upstairs of 11x13 space (with walk-in closet and full bath) plus 17x18 "bonus space" - all one big room (we built 8yrs ago with no wall separation for a big man cave LOL). Can I list as 4th bedroom? and how to stage area? It has tons of windows. Any help would be appreciated!! Thank you so much - and I'm going to try your referrals on your website too.😊

It looked really old fashioned but I was rebuilding and renovating an old cigar factory in south central PA that was built in 1900. It fit.

The seagrass wallpaper my parents put up in our home the 1970s was great…as an alternate scratching post for our cats. They destroyed that wall to about 3 feet up.

You are amazing Audrey. Happy holidays from Christchurch, New Zealand 🎄😘

OMG you don't look old enough to have a grown son - who by the way is gorgeous! Love your common sense views on selling!

Wow..what do you do when your realtor states, " well, you signed a contract, and it is an older 1972 home..."...guess the seller got away with hiding lots of stuff...good grief..cant sue in this situation..

Awesome job🎉 This video was so inspiring

Love this❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love the way you dress that green silk top is 😍

Whoooooo hoooooo😅😅😅

Theres no way we can afford cameras all around the house.

I love those dividers between the dining room and morning room. They create beauty, subtle privacy, style, and interest while at the same time keeping the openness between the two rooms.

Do NOT hire Miles McGee of Pomeroy, WA, who is an unlicensed landscaper - a total dishonest scumbag.

You do not need a license to be a general contractor in Illinois. And the construction quality of Illinois is top notch, certainly far superior than West Coast.

I appreciate you bringing the home tour and your narration to us.

her a rip off artist.

videos are very informative, but your laugh is grating.

We had LVP installed in the entire cottage that we moved my parents into. That includes the kitchens and bathrooms.

High humid area, concrete slab, 2 big dogs means no hardwood floors.

You think people get ahead by following all the rules? (aka Warby Parker broke every rule did eyeglass measurements and dispensed eyeglasses without a license: all illegal - Not a single person went to jail) …. You don’t ask Realtors to find you Subject to property- you do that yourself.. not easy to find … just do the right marketing and the work comes to you (just like this Realtor is doing)

These days, at least in Florida, prep and staging a house is a minor factor compared to the asking price of the property. Creating interest is all about the owner and his/her broker setting a reasonable asking price taking into account current market and nearby sales, homeowner and flood insurance costs espec if 3x or 4x the national avg, current mortgage interest rates and the inventory level in the area. Greed will kill any help from wonderful staging every time.

17:07 I hate that 2010s back splash as well lmao

"Personally", I would negotiate a deduction just to repaint the interior in silver/light gray/white-ish in semi-oil base. Dark colors decrease the interior spatial perspective and make the room size smaller and tighter.

Thank you So much for making these videos!!!😊 I am learning so much (that I've done wrong!!)

As a long time GC. Hire an architect, get your plans completed and then shop them. Thats the only way you can truly differentiate between bids.

Painted the whole house white! Extra white, SW. It's a neutral with some blue. All views lead to the blue lagoon pool so I think it works in hot east coast of Florida. It makes the house look bright and bigger. Agents are always saying keep color on the walls and white baseboards... Sure, it's "cozy" but we want clean, bright and inviting. Hope this works!

I have a 2860 sq ft home. Main flooring is a neutral large square tile) and split plan 4 bedrooms are also tile but wood look in a lighter color. Is this an issue?

Love Gumby

I wish you hadn't laughed so very often/unnecessarily. I found it very irritating,....although I have NO problem whatsoever with cheerful/laughing people who do it properly.

How is the market going to be January 2025?

I love Benjamin Moore paint. but used an off brand for the ceilings. I used Sherwin-Willams new flat paint, ya, not impressed with it, Wished i'd used another sheen. One tip with the Benjamin Moore paint. I buy in pints for millwork, it drys out pretty fast. I used Advance for my millwork on the stairs and wainscoting. Only wished this product was available when I painted all my trim.

Oh my gosh! I bought a 1915 craftsman bungalow eight years ago and renovated it mostly all by myself. It makes me sad shiplap is out. I actually used shiplap for a reason that most people don’t think of. As a stubborn, independent woman, I can install shiplap all day long. What I can’t do is hang a stupid 4 x 8 sheet of drywall all by myself on a ceiling. Hence, shiplap. I just painted it all a beautiful silky white and it all just blends in. Heck, I probably could have sided the exterior of my home at least two times for the amount of shiplap, I used on the interior. Seriously, it’s not really noticeable. And a plus is, I can hang pictures and paintings and shelves wherever I want. Score! Enjoy your channel😊

from what i've seen quartz is just as expensive if not more than granite, at least in my area.

First off Quartzite isn't a "disaster" to have at all. It all depends on how it's being treated. I have it in my bathroom and it's EASY to maintain. You only have to seal it ONCE PER YEAR. And it's extremely easy, just basically polish it and takes a few minutes. And barn doors do help out in certain cases. I have one myself for two doors (one door covers bathroom & closet) and looks great and get a lot of compliments on it. And grey is not dated but desired. You have some good ideas but then fail on many. With design, each case is unique. Design isn't a one size fits all thing. And the word on the street is shiplap (not my style) is back! But being used vertically. You should know trends come & go and then repeat. I also live in the OC and I see many outdated (for me) things coming back in style with the younger generation. Design is very objective. But I do enjoy your show too!

Earlier this year we emptied, cleaned and got my father in laws house ready to sell. I on purpose removed toilet paper from both bathrooms to keep people from using them. Then the inspector came and lo and behold he brought in his own toilet paper and used a toilet and well, lets say , left a mess for me to clean again and left the toilet seat up…. Grrrr In my opinion do not leave toilet paper… this invites all to mess up your hard work you spent cleaning. Also, it rained for several days and the house was shown and I walked in later to red mud stains left from some dudes boots all over carpet that had been cleaned and the hard surface floors as well. I had put a rug to wipe feet at door but it was ignored. It should be mandatory shoes be removed in a house showing

Booties humbug.

The problem here in VA is that agents don't care and will always want you to put in the expensive floors and paint. They are not paying for it and know you will accept the offer to sell the home...

I have hardwood in my kitchen and I have no problems. Just don't leave puddles of water sitting on it. It also doesn't look dirty as easily as tile. The BEST thing is no grout! You couldn't pay me to tile it. All our floors are hardwood except 1 bathroom that has been tiled.

Hello from South OC! Love love the home! Its my dream! Ive always loved parquet flooring! Im taking notes😊
