Flip I have the most horrible, worn, stained carpets that really did nothing for our home as we are trying to sell our Randburg property. 

And horrible, stained, stinky and worn carpets just no nothing for you if you have plans to sell.  Here is something to consider if you were in the same boat as me and you not just want to but need to sell your home and your carpets are stopping buyers dead in their tracks.  Trust me very few buyers are thrilled with carpets nowadays, especially if they did not lay the carpets themselves.  Need more info, call Sandy on (083) 550 1220.

So our Randburg property went from this

Sadly it’s on me.  My ability to potty training our fur-babies, especially in Winter is on me!  And having a little one that just loves ‘Slime’ and painting and drawing are what make memories, but even professional carpet cleaning no longer worked.  I never actually took a proper before photo, I was just too embarrassed.  Getting our Randburg property ready for sale to get a good price was more economical than I thought.

To This…

Flip what a difference.  It was never meant to be a permanent and long-term solution but it may just become that way.  The new look is classy, fresh, modern and has the most luxurious feeling underfoot.  And it’s odorless, easy to clean and maintain and even easier to cover little scratches and nicks.

Here is a view of the bay window on our Randburg property.  And let me tell you that even though we are selling our home, it’s just lovely to wake up in this bedroom every morning.  Wish we had done it yonks ago.

Randburg property sale without carpets

The 2nd carpeted bedroom looks like this, finished.  I took a photo of the room without the boxes we have started packing in anticipation of an offer later this week.

Selling a Randburg property

Setting a Randburg property buyer up with a blank canvas

Our 2 large previously carpeted rooms in our Randburg property has ensured that a active and willing buyer can look past the carpets at what can be…  We have set a buyer up perfectly to lay a range of different options like Vinyl, Laminate flooring or Tiles.  I did not want to invest here, but I do want to sell. 

There is a contractor I would recommend for a Randburg property

And that’s Elvis!  For the big stuff and the small stuff.  He is really fabulous.  Elvis and you are more than welcome to touch base with me on 083 550 1220  to get his number I recommend Elvis to most of my clients because he delivers, on time and to budget.  He is just awesome and I love his team.  Such nice guys that just get on and do the work with no fuss.  The entire job of removing my hideous carpets cost me R2,000 for 2 big rooms and trust me it was worth every cent…  And the rubble and household removed cost me a further R850 and it was totally worth it…

Carting our horrible old carpets away had another benefit

I arranged with Elvis to have a large truck come by and carry away every scrap of junk that had collected over the years.  They took it all away for R850.00.  And finally our home is perfect for viewings and show days.  With no junk lying about I feel like a massive weight has been lifted because I don’t want to move junk I have not used in years; I would simply love to redistribute.  One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.

If you need help, give me a call

I too am in the process of selling our home.  It’s hard always being ready for a viewing and being ready for a viewing means being ready to move in 6 weeks if we are blessed with a cash sale…  If you need advice on what can be done to get you top dollar when you sell, I would love to help you.  Call Sandy Graham from Cornerstone Realty on 083 550 1220, visit my website.
