The Property Deal Gone Wrong that Went Right ( or How I Found $ 35,000 )

Here is how I discovered there was such a thing as ‘ Home Staging ’, and what an amazingly powerful strategy it is !
In 2007 I decided to take my love-affair with property to another level – I wanted to be a full-time property investor . The first thing I did was move from the Sunshine Coast ( Queensland ) to Brisbane . The second thing I did was invest in a 12-month property mentoring program , and after learning the specific skills I needed , the next step was to find my first project . I searched long and hard for my first ‘ deal ’ and finally found a renovation project where the numbers ‘ stacked up ’. In December 2007 I bought one of the ugliest homes I could find . I was so excited !
And what happened next ? Yes , you will probably remember the market spectacularly crashed in 2008 . The GFC hit big-time . So my plans for a fullblown renovation had to change and I needed to turn my project into a fast , cosmetic renovation and sell as quickly as possible to avoid losing money . Plan B included focusing on painting ( inside and out ), carpeting , new blinds , minor cosmetic changes in the kitchen and a completely new bathroom .
