Karen Schaefer presents,
PROPERTY SOLD IN 21 DAYS – USING KAREN’S 5-STEP APPROACH
(even in a lousy real estate market)
From: Karen Schafer, Founder, Simple Appeal Inc. and President of APSD (The Association of Property Scene Designers for Immediate Results)
RE: Staging, Design and Marketing Event (designed specifically to sell your houses NOW!)
Dear Friend: So, you just have to ask yourself… “Do you have what it takes to sell your properties in a buyers market?”
I know what you are thinking; I can read your mind, because we used to be the same. The difference is that I refused to accept the fact that I just had to “sit” on my properties if I didn’t want to. And now, you don’t have to sit on them either. Yep, you can sell, sell, sell, even in a buyers market. The single best selling secret…are you ready?…is to just make your propertyUnforgettable.
How do you do that?
Just follow the 5 proven steps–that when used effectively, will sell your properties in ½ the time in any real estate environment. It works, where I live, where everyone else lives, and chances are, where you live too-the only catch is to use it “effectively.”

“I was a little nervous about it selling in my BUYERS market.
Leveraging Emotion: Giving tenant buyers a ‘model home’ that is warm, inviting, and has emotional appeal.Staging in a buyers market got:
- $196K on a $185K property
- $1500/month rent on an $1100/month house and had 2 people fighting over it.
- $350/month positive cash flow and $26,000 on the back end.
The red door is part of the staging. I learned all of this from Karen …”
Tara Tooley – Freedom Property Solutions, LLC
Just wanted to share how I have sold or lease- optioned 6 houses in the last couple of weeks using Karen Schaefer’s staging system. I have always depended on creative financing to find motivated buyers for my properties but have found that a combination of creative financing and proper staging dramatically impacts my results.
Bill Bronchick, President CAREI, Denver, CO
—————————————————————————————————————-
I hear from people on a daily basis and they tell me that they know how to do property staging, design and marketing–and are already doing it themselves. “Okay, then what can I do for them?” They want to know why their property is not selling…have I mentioned the fact that you have to learn to be “effective?” Everyone does plants, candles and towels now-what have you done to make your property the ONE that is unforgettable to the buyer when they look at 25 other houses that day? The one thing that happens over and over and over again is that real estate investors are willing to learn how to buy, but not how to sell. It is very interesting to me because I certainly would not want to invest $50,000, $100,000 $200,000, $300,000 or more into something, if I was not an expert on getting back out of it. It is only logical that you learn the end before you learn the beginning.
When you set goals-what do they always tell you? You decide what it is you really want-and then work backwards. The same is true with real estate. Before you buy the property, figure out what you are going to do with it in the end-then work backwards. Talk about minimizing your risk and always getting a better deal-yet no one teaches you the components of selling-only those of buying. Now, don’t get me wrong, you have to learn to buy, that is really when you make your money, but you get your check when you sell, so above all else, you must know how to make someone fall in love with your property or else, all the great buying in the world will do you no good. If it is my skin on the table, my name on the contract, and my hard earned money in the deal, I want to know how I am going to guarantee myself a profit in the end, before I buy it in the beginning.
That is why I came up with the proven surefire 5 steps that allow me to transact my properties in any real estate environment twice as fast as anyone else. Those concerns that other investors have about cash flow, holding costs, DOM, etc. are never a concern when you effectively use the magic 5-step selling system.

Did I also mention that it is fun, creative and a great avenue for your partner?
How many of you are completely invested in real estate, but your partner is less than even slightly invested? My husband and I were like that in the beginning, until of course he saw the $127,000 paycheck, on my second property-then he was 100% invested as well-of course.
But now we both have the perfect system. He does all the buying and I do all the selling using my 5- step proven system designed to sell your properties NOW!
“No kidding, I was the epitome of a half-invested spouse – until Karen brought home that $127,000 check. Upon finishing jumping up and down wildly – and gleefully depositing the check – I too realized the power of the business and system that Karen had created. Once more, my wife amazed me with her ability to see straight-through to what it takes to get the job done and make a bunch of money in the process. So I did the natural thing, I quit my corporate job and took up fishing…. Well almost, the system she built and now teaches has enriched our lives and now, we have an unstoppable buying and selling system that make us more money than we ever dreamed”
A Happy Spouse, Pete Treloar -”livin’ the dream!” (I’m the one in the hat!)
Since we are in a buyers market, many of you are probably in a holding mode (let’s hope it is not a holding pattern, because it is a great time to buy right now)-so you are thinking, well, I don’t need to know anything except how to put a sign in the yard and an ad in the paper. Well, the problem with that is if you are holding, so is everyone else, so now, we will get saturated with rental properties. Once again, you need to learn to distinguish yourself from other investors and other properties by offering the very best in presentation and marketing, so you can get the very best in tenants, tenant buyers and income.
No matter what the property is, and no matter
your exit strategy, you simply must deliver the single most
‘unforgettable’ property on your customers list

OKAY KAREN – BUT TELL ME THIS – What makes you so qualified?
I am a believer in the school of hard knocks. I truly believe that you learn by working with experts and then getting out and doing it.
When I was a kid, I worked at my dad’s service station. Every Saturday, I would pump gas, up-sell wiper blades and air filters (I got an extra .50 cents per item and was the number one sales person at the age of 12), collect the cash and drive the cash (yes, I was 12!) to the bank so that my dad could pay for the gas load on Mondays. My dad’s stations were busier than any other station in the entire area. For years and years Shell Oil would give out an Image Award that my dad received more often than anyone else in dealer history in his tri-state area. This award was given to my dad because of the outstanding presentation of his businesses. He had an assortment of rose bushes and shrubs all in a landscaped area in the front of the station. We painted the curbs white every single Saturday morning (to this day, I can paint faster than anyone!) and washed every pump from top to bottom daily. When you went into the office, you were greeted with a fresh hot cup of coffee, a newspaper and offer to drive you back home and come get you later when your car was finished. The bay racks were painted once a month in bright yellow and the walls, windows, and floors were treated, scrubbed, washed and dried every single night. We wore white shirts and were required to bring an extra one with us in case we got dirty-we were required to change. We were required to scrub our hands if they were dirty too. Here is the best part, every evening, and I mean every evening, my dad would clean the bathrooms, because none of us had passed his test in being able to clean them good enough (we were smarter than he thought…), he would get on his knees, and scrub the tiled floors, then the walls, wash the toilet, sink, and mirror. He would replace the hand towel and soap, wipe down the coat rack and then add new fresh flowers!
Obviously I was learning from and expert…
So, my dad would get his Image Award, but also his Top Performer Award, Dealer of the Year Award, Gallon Master Award, (for the most gallons pumped)… and the list goes on and on.
“My Dad, the Ultimate Property Designer”
My Dad knew what it took to get people in the door, have them want to be there and be willing to pay more for the same service they could get somewhere else. Thirty years ago, my Dad was making $200,000+ a year, pumping gas and changing oil.
He understood a few of the very basic principles…
•1. He knew who his customer was and what was important to them vs. himself
•2. He knew how to market -and from where… (more on that later)
•3. He knew where to get the most bang from his buck and not over or under spend
This was the beginning to what would later be the 5 proven strategies that I use today to turn my properties (and my client’s) in ½ the time regardless of the current (or lousy!) real estate market.
The 5- step proven system to real estate sales in under 30 days-5 simple steps that you must use to sell your properties NOW!
So, we have pretty much established that the real estate market stinks right now, but even if you are one of the lucky ones in a place where the market is still good-I can think of one-this system works in any real estate environment…once you learn to be effective.
People ask me to teach them my system all the time, because I am out there in the field and they see my results every day.
Of course, I am just one person and let’s face facts; I have a few businesses to run…
That is why I decided to put together a few days that we could all meet, come together for fun, creativity and hard core selling, marketing and designing techniques.
SELLER BEWARE! Because I really teach this technique and load a room with my actual staging, design and marketing tools-I can only take 47 people at a time-that is it-not one single person more!
This market is not getting any better fast, so now you must decide…buy and hold or make your properties unforgettable and sell in ½ the time at Full Market Value! Become a Master at the 5 steps to selling immediately for more money even in a troubled real estate market
•1. Learn how to really evaluate your customer, what they are looking for and how to give it to them NOW!

“Simple Appeal has revolutionized my methods for effectively marketing & selling investment properties. By implementing Karen’s staging principles, I now generate far more showings and am able to sell my houses significantly faster than in the past…for more money. The bottom line is that staging works. It provides me the advantage when competing with other homes on the market. It has also helped me reduce the time and amount of money I spend on remodeling houses. Thanks Karen!”

“That’s why many real estate agents employ professional “home stagers” when they want to guarantee a quick sale. Corcoran’s Singer says her staged properties tend to sell faster and for more money than ones that aren’t prepped in this fashion.”
Stacey L. Bradford SMARTMONEY.COM: March 30, 2007
I finished staging on a Thursday night, and Friday had my first prospects stop by to take a look. The first thing they told me when they called back was to say that they loved the house, and that when they turned the corner and saw the baby room they realized they wanted to buy the house. They are a young couple with a 3 month old baby. They sent their applications in the next day and their biggest concern wasn’t the price of the house, or getting an inspection or warranty on the house, or even what their monthly payment would be on a lease option. Their biggest concern was that something would happen and they wouldn’t get THAT house. They didn’t want any other house, just ours!
They put down their earnest money a few days later and we are closing (they have even gotten their own financing) early next week.
Your workshop and staging system taught me what specific props to stage with and how to place everything to elicit a positive emotional response in people. I have heard staging presentations from other investors, but none were targeted at getting that real emotion from potential buyers, and none were so specific that I could turn around and set up designer scenarios throughout our homes. So I want to send you a world of thanks for your help! It has really paid off for us!
