Real Estate in South Florida: Tips for Selling Your Home and Building Business

Amy Carpenter is not just an expert in real estate, a professional interior designer but she is also a philanthropist. She always had that passion to give back to the community. For her, it is more important to give than to receive and more than the giving and receiving what she feels inside in giving back to the community. 

The best advice Amy Carpenter received in business and life, in general, is to always “listen to your customers and hear what they are saying.”  It is easy to sell to people if we listen to them and sell them what they want. Other than putting our ideas, it is also valuable to ask what our customer’s feedback and their opinions are because at the end of the day those people are the one who consumes our product and pays for it. 

Amy Carpenter’s biggest mistake she made in business is she wasn’t fast enough to get herself out there. She was afraid that she wasn’t perfect enough but it is important to get yourself out there and just do it. None of us is perfect so it is important to just be ourselves and start that business we are planning to do. If you are an expert on something, be confident with yourself and do not shy away. 

Amy Carpenter as an expert in real estate also shares the key elements when you want to put your house on the market. The first is to declutter. Take a photo of each room and just look at the things through the lens of the camera that are no longer needed like a stack of magazines, a pet’s toys, or clothes that are not used, and just get rid of them. Take away your personal items like wedding photos or your children’s trophies because people want to visualize themselves in your house and having too many personal items won’t help.   Also, a fresh coat of neutral paint will makes wonders to freshen up your home. The third recommendation is to stage your home. Have someone come in to stage come in. People can’t visualize themselves in an empty home so staging it would be a great help. Lastly is landscaping. Make sure they are inviting, make sure that all the trees are trim, and don’t forget about the backyard and the pool area.
