5 stars – testimonials

Looking for a real estate agent? Melanie Kramer is an excellent and smart choice. We whole-heartedly recommend her services. We worked with Melanie in 2006 when she helped us find the house that best fit our needs. Then in 2015 we worked with Melanie to help us sell. Both experiences surpassed our expectations. Melanie is a local expert and was full of great recommendations for service providers. When we needed to sell, our home was empty and she staged it so beautifully that we wanted to move back in! Melanie is very knowledgeable of all the ins and outs of the buying and selling process. Melanie is easy and convenient to communicate with and we always felt like we were her number one clients. Her negotiation skills and advice proved to be sound, reasonable and worked to our benefit. She always had our best interest in mind. Melanie is a wonderful person and through our working experience we consider her a friend. Choose Melanie and you will have results! ” – Ramsey

She was awesome!!Worked to get us every dollar she could for our home. Melanie has an outstanding understanding of the real a state market in the Richmond Hill area.” – Jones

The home we purchased had been listed without disclosure that the sale had to clear probate. For four months Melanie went far beyond what could be reasonably expected of a buyer’s agent. Employing her extensive knowledge and experience as both paralegal and Realtor, Melanie relentlessly pushed the process forward despite a frequently unresponsive seller’s agent.

Melanie dealt most professionally with our growing frustration as well. She kept us well informed every step of the way and her patience and encouragement allowed us to persevere. At no small expense of her time, Melanie got us through the ordeal. Were it not for her tenacity and dedication to us there is no question that our dream of a home on the water would not have materialized.

We have bought other homes in the past and Melanie far surpasses every other agent we have had. Without reservation I can say that Melanie is in a class by herself and she has earned my highest recommendation.” – Stevens

I promise to do my very best to guide you through what some clients describe as a very stressful process and the biggest purchase of their life.  Let me take the stress out of your next home buying or selling experience.   My commitment is to make you a client for Life!

Organizing After the Holidays

Organizing after the holidays is often the last thing we think about when putting decorations away. We put so much effort into setting up for the holidays that jumping back into the swing of things after a two week slow down can be a bit jarring.

organizing after the holidays

Organizing after the holidays can feel like a big job, but with a few quick tricks getting organized and de-cluttering can happen all year long. It’s never too early to start spring cleaning. And it is essential if you are planning to sell your home in the near future.

It can be shocking how much space seasonal items can take up. Stackable containers and hanging storage containers are your friend. They are perfect for maximizing closet space and getting items off the floor.

5 quick tips for organizing after the holidays

  • A great trick to help create space in your living room is to not bring back everything you put away when the holiday decorations came out. Enjoy the space created once the Christmas tree comes down.
  • Those plastic Glad left over containers can take over the kitchen. It’s a universal problem to have more containers than covers. Now is the time to collect the ones that don’t have lids (and vice versa) and recycle them.
  • Adjustable or compartmental storage containers are a great way to organize all the little things in the bathroom. Getting items off the counter can make your bathroom feel bigger.
  • Another quick fix is to install hooks. Whether you need a place to hang jackets as you come in to your home or wet towels after a shower, with a minimal investment you can remove clutter from door knobs and backs of chairs all over your house.
  • Purging is by the far the best way to reduce the clutter. A great practice this time of year is the one for one rule. All the presents we receive add to our closets, shelves and toy chests. While putting your gifts away take the time to assess what you actually use and let go of anything you don’t. Generally speaking if you’re adding a new sweater to the closet, remove an old one.

How soon after the holidays do you put your holiday decorations away? Do you have any tips for organizing the house after the holidays, please share them in the comments below.

Please call or email me today for more information if you need help getting your home ready to sell after the holidays.
