The entrepreneurial spirit runs deep in the soul of Christina Giuffre who has established herself as a top realtor in Calgary, achieving success despite a down market.

In less than three years in the real estate industry, Giuffre has sold over 100 homes and has won Century 21 Canada’s Top 30 under 30 award, the Centurion award, the Diamond award and the Outstanding Achievement Award of Excellence.

The young entrepreneur is a leader in her generation and among the top five realtors in 2019 for Century 21 Bamber Realty in Calgary.

1 –  Odours Matter

Odours that will likely turn buyers off your home:
– Pets 
– Mildew / Dampness / Garbage
– Gym equipment 

 A nice diffuser will do the trick! 

2 – Spring Cleaning: Filth & Clutter, Begone!

Spring cleaning is a big undertaking (especially if you’ve missed the last few years) but it yields great results when putting your home on the market!

But don’t worry! The Spruce has a list of 6 Spring Cleaning Checklists depending on what kind of cleaner you are, we encourage you to check them out!

Some areas you may forget about:
– Powerwash the exterior including the garage, patio, and pathways.
– Deep clean your appliances (eliminate any odour, clean out food residue, etc).
– Check your grout and regrout if needed, especially in the bathrooms.

3 – Staging Matters

When staging your home, keep potential buyers in mind. Part of that is removing anything personal that will remind a buyer that someone lives in it now. 

If you need help, hire a REALTOR® or our team that offers home staging services!
