    <title>Hollywood Painting Provides Informational How to Paint Videos to the Public</title>
    <summary>Many people want to paint their own home but don’t have the knowledge to achieve professional results.  Hollywood Painting has created how to paint videos to give those interested in painting and special finishes the information they need to achieve a beautiful end result.</summary>
    <content type="html">
&lt;p&gt;Mississauga, Canada (IPRWIRE) Fri, November 9th, 2007 -- Hollywood Painting (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.hollywoodpainting.com&quot; class=&quot;snap_preview&quot;&gt;http://www.hollywoodpainting.com&lt;/a&gt;) is pleased to announce the release of how to paint videos available on the company website.  With more than 30 years in the business the company has become accustomed to getting phone calls from people who want to know how to paint or create a specific finish.  While Hollywood Painting has been happy to comment to each individual the goal is to provide all consumers with the ability to create that professional look without paying for a professional.  The videos will help consumers learn about painting, repairs, stucco repairs, and more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Painting a home allows a homeowner to add a personal touch to the space.  Unfortunately many people simply do not know how to paint well enough to achieve an end result that is satisfactory.  Because of this lack of knowledge many consumers are forced to pay the high prices that professional painters demand.  While the end result may be great, the cost is extraordinary and may not allow everyone to have everything painted the way they would like.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hollywood Painting has released how to paint videos that really do seek to give the average consumer the information that is needed to obtain a beautiful finished product.  The company says of the videos, &quot;Have you ever refinished a surface and have been disappointed with the results? That is because you didn't have the knowledge to plan and execute the job properly. Hollywood Painting videos provide in depth instruction on surface preparation, materials and equipment and also paint color selection.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

Hollywood Painting (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.hollywoodpainting.com&quot; class=&quot;snap_preview&quot;&gt;http://www.hollywoodpainting.com&lt;/a&gt;) brings more than 30 years of painting experience to the table.  In the last ten years the company has received countless calls asking for information on perfecting a certain technique or asking for general tips.  These phone calls inspired the company to create how to videos that would answer questions in a very comprehensive manner that everyone can understand.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Home Staging Helps to Combat Public Perception of Stagnant Real Estate Market</title>
    <summary>Despite media reports that the "sky is falling" in the real estate industry, consumers should remember that fear sells papers and boosts TV ratings and is a tactic used routinely by the media for self promotion.  Decorate-Redecorate says home staging services, however, can't be ignored when markets are sluggish, even though the scare reports are highly overrated and misleading.</summary>
    <content type="html">
&lt;p&gt;Huntington Beach, California (IPRWIRE) Sat, September 22nd, 2007 -- Decorate-Redecorate (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.decorate-redecorate.com&quot; class=&quot;snap_preview&quot;&gt;http://www.decorate-redecorate.com&lt;/a&gt;) encourages consumers by reminding them that real estate isn't driven by speculation. That's why homes are not traded like commodities on the stock market. Homes are too dissimilar, even if a huge number of them are tract homes. Home staging is a valuable way to make a home even more dissimilar to other homes on the market. So even though a tract home has a different location, orientation, lot dimension, proximity or view, professional techniques by home stagers can make all the difference when it comes to price, number of offers and speed of sale.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The problem is that the media loves to scare people. Fear is good for headlines and ratings. In reality the real estate market always fluctuates. So contrary to what the media would have you believe, the sky isn't falling. Real estate sales always reflect the uniqueness of a property, at a specific point in time, competing against only those other similar properties that happen to be available for sale, at that point in time. If there are several similar homes available at that time, there will be downward pressure on the sales prices. It is competition for a dwindling number of homes of a similar nature that drives the prices upward. Yet again, this is where home staging services play an important role in setting similar homes apart from one another.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The determination of home value is complicated, to say the least. Terms such as assessed value, appraised value, market value, replacement value and selling price all mean different things. For instance, when the media reports that real estate values are falling, what they really mean is that the prices buyers paid for a small number of homes (last month) was less than what a different set of buyers paid for a different assortment of homes (the month before). That's hardly a good comparison but a great way to confuse the public and boost the media's ratings.  One result the media can't manipulate for ratings, however, is the positive effects that home staging has on the pricing results of staged homes compared to un-staged homes. Statistics all across the country agree that staged homes routinely outperform those that are not staged, and the services, in most cases, being more cost effective to the seller than having to lower the sales price.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Decorate-Redecorate Offers Home Staging Training and Directories</title>
    <summary>Selling a home right now can be difficult, but staging a home will make it much more appealing to a wider range of buyers.  Decorate-Redecorate offers home staging training in addition to directories that can help home owners stage their homes to present it well online through pictures as well as to those that walk through the home.</summary>
    <content type="html">
&lt;p&gt;Huntington Beach, Ca. (IPRWIRE) Wed, August 8th, 2007  --  Decorate-Redecorate (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.decorate-redecorate.com&quot; class=&quot;snap_preview&quot;&gt;http://www.decorate-redecorate.com&lt;/a&gt;) is happy to provide home staging training for homeowners as well as comprehensive directories of trained professionals that can do the job for the home owner.  The market is very slow right now, and sellers have to get competitive if they want their home to sell at a price that is fair to them.  Many homeowners assume that they cannot afford these services, but they will cost far less than keeping the house on the market for months at a time and lowering the asking price.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The problem that many homeowners have is they don’t realize how individual their tastes are.  Just because our home looks good to us doesn’t mean that it will appeal to everyone. Through home staging training realtors as well as homeowners will learn that as much as 50% of the furniture in a home may need to be removed.  Basically, the home has to be depersonalized.  Neutral colors need to be used, and knick knacks need to be packed away, because these make the house look more cluttered and smaller.  The seller needs to create the illusion of space while detracting from the less than appealing qualities of the home, and accentuating the great things.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One satisfied customer of Decorate-Redecorate said of her experience, &quot;Well, if someone needs &quot;proof&quot; that this stuff works...it happened here folks!  The house had been on the market 9 months and needed to sell in 5 weeks or the owner was going to loose her new house that is being built. In that 9 months, I found out there had been one flimsy offer and financing didn't go through. I staged the home Friday afternoon getting it ready for the first of 5 open house Sundays. . . . Saturday afternoon an outside realtor unexpectedly called to see the house. Her clients were relatively sure they were going to put a bid on another house but were willing to look at one more house. The house wowed them and they wrote up a contract that afternoon on this house...!!!! UNBELIEVABLE. Well, being a good realtor, Rosemary, held the open house today, as scheduled, and the owner received another offer!!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!! The bidding war is on!!! I am tickled pink! And hopefully, one of the offers will be just the right one to get the home sold.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
