In this first episode of 2024, Steve Martin & Katrina Smith discuss some pros and cons of home staging options. Real Estate professionals everywhere agree on the value of depersonalizing your property prior to listing it. Have you ever seen staged homes that obviously had the personality of the stager/decorator all over it? Can that actually be counter productive to the sale of your property? What if a potential buyer or your listing agent need to move some of the furniture to show the potential buyer other layout options? Will that "staging company" allow you to do that? These valuable insights and more are included in this episode of the Real Estate Agent Man podcast Learn more here about our FREE HOME STAGING GUARANTEE Katrina Smith is a licensed Florida REALTOR® with RE/MAX Platinum Realty and owner of Little Black Dress Home Staging and Detailing.

Watch the music video on YouTube HERE Finally - here it is. The entire song of Real Estate Agent Man. I wrote this my first year in real estate. However, not a soul has heard any of it, accept the chorus, until this month when I performed the acoustic version at a local Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club. The response was so inspiring that I made time to create this recording in my home studio. Hopefully you'll find it enjoyable enough to share with others. Here are the lyrics and chords if you would like to play along. Title: Real Estate Agent Man Lyrics and additions to the arrangement: by Steve Martin Smith Copyright 2015 Parody of Secret Agent Man as made famous by Johnny Rivers Em Am Em There’s a man who leads a life of danger Em B7 Showing houses day and night to strangers Em Am with every call he takes - a chance that they are fakes Em Am Em hoping they will buy a house tomorrow Chorus Bm Em Bm Em real estate agent man - real estate agent man C B7 Em Intro x 2 Write down his cell phone number - do not forget his name Em Am Em beware of pretty pictures that you find Em B7 deceitful sellers - make you lose your mind Em Am and be careful what you say, or you may have to pay Em Am Em unless your agent saves your cash/ass tomorrow Repeat Chorus Intro x 4 Em Am Em Hoping for the Riviera one day Em B7 but first he must sell Sarasota today Em Am and that Nissan that he drives - it don't make him feel alive Em Am Em that Lamborghini dream lives on tomorrow& Check out the REAL ESTATE AGENT MAN on YouTube & now also on Rumble.com Visit his Sarasota County Florida REAL ESTATE WEBSITE Need a REALTOR® ?
