Adding a New Dimension to Virtual Tours

Just when it has become somewhat the "norm" to provide virtual tours of properties, something new and unique comes along to set your listing apart from the rest and keep you ahead of the curve. With thousands of properties for sale in the Wilmington area, it is more important than ever to stand out from the competition in buyers' initial online searches. Since there are so many properties to choose from, buyers are being forced to narrow down their options before they even leave their homes...online. We already know how important staging is to the visual presentation of a home for sale, now we have found a more impressive way to show off the work that's been done!
Just Perfect! is excited to announce its partnership with D.J. Professionals & Video to provide professional videography. The company has been in business since 1984 and has a large repertoire of highly satisfied clients. They use high definition cameras, professional lighting and expert editing to help the property show its best. After staging the home and getting it show-ready, professional videos will capture the attention of buyers online and have them excited to see more in person! The team at D.J. Professionals & Video offers three video packages to fit every home and need.

The Closer: This is their premium video and is unlike anything else you've ever seen. First, they highlight every interior and exterior feature of the property. On top of that, there is an informative voice-over giving specific facts and details about the property. This video goes beyond expectations and shows the surrounding community and area attractions. This is very helpful for out of town buyers to give them a complete feel of the home as well as the surrounding area. To top everything off, actors are brought in to show everything in action so potential buyers can truly "see" themselves living in the space!


The Grand Opening: This package offers every essential aspect to help the property show its best. The videographers come out to the property and again feature every aspect of the interior and exterior. They go beyond the property lines to give buyers a glimpse of the entire community and surrounding area. This will highlight any community amenities as well as proximity to schools, beaches, parks, and shopping. A professional voice-over completes the video, detailing the specifics of the property and useful contact information.


The Open House: While this is the basic package, it still packs a big punch and will get your property noticed. It includes high definition video of the entire house, both inside and out. The video is polished off with background music to help create a mood with potential buyers.

I'm New Here....A Little Bit About Me.


Ciao!
While I have worked part-time on projects with Just Perfect! over the past few years, I am the newest addition to their core team and I am so excited to be here. My name is Rebecca, so there are two of us now, which complicates things around the office but keeps us on our toes. I graduated with honors from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington with a business marketing major and psychology minor. I spent my final semester in Milan, Italy learning about the language, culture and international business and had a great time doing it. While I miss the pasta and pastries, it is good to be back in the good old U S of A!
I look forward to meeting all of you as I work on sales and marketing with Just Perfect! Together with the rest of the team, I hope to better familiarize the Wilmington community with staging and make Just Perfect! a household name for those buying and selling real estate. Please don't hesitate to call if you have any questions or just want to say hi. I would love to hear from you and I look forward to working with you all in the future.

What Happened in Vegas??

Team members from Just Perfect! Home Staging + More recently attended the 2010 RESA (Real Estate Staging Association) International Conference in Las Vegas. An exhausting trip out west due to unforgiving storms and airport delays proved to be well worth the effort. Jessica Pirone, owner and founder of Just Perfect!, received her first nomination for RESA's top award, RESA Professional Stager of the Year. Home stagers from all over the country came together for what will surely be the "go to" conference for the staging community. Two days of information packed lectures and workshops provided us with fresh, new ideas and inspiration for our 2010 staging and design plans. Guest lecturers included Matthew Finlason, host of HGTV's The Stagers and Bethany Souza, host of HGTV's Designed To Sell. No money was won at the slot machines or blackjack tables, but we certainly returned home richer in knowledge and motivation.
