Hi Everyone.

All of a sudden I feel like 10 Million dollars. I would have said a million but with inflation, a million just does not seem like a lot anymore. I just finished the David Goggins 4x4x48 Challenge which was March 5-7th, so it ended yesterday! I ran 4 miles (6.5km) every 4 hours, including 4 am for 48 hours. Overcoming this gruelling, difficult endurance test was incredible. However, this is a real estate podcast, and while I was posting on social each run I finished, I also sold 2 homes by the time I ran my last mile Sunday evening!

In this episode, we take you through a townhouse in Mississauga yesterday. The fact that we received a few offers and the home was sold for way more then the client's expectations tells nothing about what happened behind the scenes. We had to do a lot of get it ready, such as tell the clients how to declutter, staging, cleaning and so on. A lot of prep work went behind the scenes.

The lovely clients have 2 kids under 3, I have 2 under 4, so I know how it is to live like that. Its a blessing but the house was a mess, clothes everywhere, so many extra items and so on. One major, yet subtle change we suggested revolved around the lighting. The house had a lot of old, builder-grade lights. They made it look dated, while the home overall was nice. By swapping a few out for Costco priced chandeliers, maybe $100 each, giving the house a better, brighter and illuminating feel. It gave the home a flavour of elegance and in my opinion, helped make them a few thousand more at a fraction of their investment cost of those lights. The home definitely looked amazing in the photos and video. Find out more and how you should organize your home's lighting to make the home also look like 10 million dollars.

Here is a link to my website for the home we are discussing, including the video and some pictures.
