Welcome, my name is Salem!
I am the founder of One Nest LLC & a licensed REALTOR with Realty One Group Five Star in Denver, Colorado My husband and I have lived in eight homes over the past 15 years, ten of those with kiddos. What can I say, some people change out sofa pillows…I just love houses as a whole! Out of our frequent moves (and a tiny budget during the newly-wed years) was born a love for creative staging and carefully curated décor, so that any home or space we happen to be in could be transformed into something functional and beautiful. "Emphasize the good and camouflage the elements you can’t change." One Nest was born out of a desire to share that vision for creating beauty and desire for a space with others. |
As a licensed REALTOR, as well as a certificated home staging professional, there is nothing that gives me greater joy than the smile that creeps across a client’s face as they see the hidden potential of their home emerging…whether that is a seller watching their potential listing price increase with every step of the staging process, or a buyer I get to work with on imagining the re-design potential of a prospective home purchase.
Recently I was working with a client to prep her home for listing. She considered it a lost cause, had hated it for years, and was so excited to move she was willing to take almost half the value of the home because she didn’t think anyone else would want it either. Even the real estate agents she spoke with prior to working with me said it wasn’t going to bring much and she should sell it in “as is” condition. I talked her into giving me three weeks, and spent the time working together to achieve our master plan for success. At the end of that time she was in tears over how pretty her home looked and said she should have done it years ago…she finally loved her home! She put it on the market and her nominal investment in staging (which included specific direction for paint and repairs as well) resulted in a full price, listing-weekend, all cash offer of $50,000 more than she would have listed for had she gone with the original advice she received. I love this work so much!
