We have a gorgeous, but cluttered 2BR condo that we need to sell ASAP. We are looking for a realtor who is familiar with the Evanston market who can help us accomplish this. We know we need to de-clutter, but we could really use help with staging, and some creative ideas to get people in our door in this sluggish market.
Any referrals would be appreciated.
Thanks

A really good friend was just telling me about an open house in Evanston that she went to this past weekend. House was a disaster before it was on the market and said now it is amazing. It was perfectly stagged and the realors put together these amazing handouts as well. Sounds like they work really hard for you.

The website for the realors is listed below.

Hi D. - Peter Cummins with Prudential was actually the selling agent for our house we bought six months ago here in Evanston. He seemed to do a great job and we were very impressed with him:

Ray Garard, Baird & Warner, ###-###-####. Excellent, seasoned Realtor (grew up in the area) and has a woman Architect, who also does Interior Design, he works with who will consult with you and itemize a Plan for your particular situation. You get the declutter advice AS WELL AS architectural and design insight as to the best staging or minimum improvements you can do to get top dollar.
For a two BR she could easily work up a Master Plan for you, in an hour, unless you are incredibly chatty and need a longwinded explanation. She cuts to the chase and does not drag it out.

Hi D.,
My name is L. Clemente & I am a realtor with Coldwell Banker. My background is in Interior Design. That was my career for over 8 yrs. Now I am doing real estate & home staging included. My last listing was a condo that was on the market for approximately a yr. & when I got the listing it was vacant so I went in & staged it & it sold in 7 days (in this market.) My seller was thrilled, he was moving out of state & could not be happier to finally be rid of his condo.
I would love to help you! Just give me a call & I can come out & do a listing presentation for you. To be completely honest, I am not familiar with the Evanston market but can research the properties in your area through the multiple listing service (MLS.) My office is in LaGrange but I have worked in Aurora, Plainfield, the west loop, Wicker Park, LaGrange, etc. I'm comfortable working anywhere. I have all of the information I need online but, the choice is up to you. I can't make any promises but I would do everything I can to help get your property sold. Don't let the media scare you, there are still buyers out there. I work with them everyday. It's just not the same pace it was a few yrs age. But, your home does need to stand out & leave a lasting impression. There's too much out there for the buyers to look at & they'll move on. Give me a call when you're ready. My number is ###-###-####.
Sincerely,
L. Clemente (Mom of a little girl, Antonia who will be 2 this month.)

my realtor Clare Spartz with Keller Williams is really good at staging. She is very talented at seeing what needs to go out and what needs to get arranged in a certain way and will also get the pictures done well to really show off your place. She knows Evanston, Chicago and suburbs such as Oak Park very well. Her number is ###-###-####.

We worked with Dee Springer at @Properties when we bought two homes and sold one. She is a very seasoned realtor and a stright shooter. I am a pack rat and she helped me figure out how to de-clutter my areas and organize my walk-in closet to make it appear less cluttered and larger. It must have worked because our unit sold in less than a week (a year ago). If you're interested in contacting her, her cell (for business purposes) is: ###-###-#### and her email is ____@____.com can tell her H. Kralj ("Crawl") referred you if you'd like.

D.,
This is a long shot but I thought you might try to get your house on HGTV Designed to Sell. We actually just bought a house that was on this show.
