Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty Associate Turns Focus to Residential Design Trends
ORLANDO - Florida’s real estate downturn has generated innovative sales strategies that range from steeply discounted asking prices and auctions to landscaping packages that improve the home’s “curb appeal,” but associates at Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty in Orlando are focusing on a practical new approach that is winning praise from sellers and buyers alike: Home Design Trends.
“Home Design Trends is focused squarely on value,” said Roger Soderstrom, owner and founder of Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty.
“Beyond price discounts, beyond curb appeal, what sorts of improvements can a seller undertake that will substantially increase the value of a luxury home? Home Design Trends offers some answers,” he said.
Stirling Sotheby’s teamed up with Canin Associates, the award-winning Orlando-based architectural and planning firm, to offer professional design services for today’s consumers. The partnership produces the Home Design Trends, in a twice monthly newsletter that Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty sends to all of its customers.
Canin Associates Principal Tony Weremeichik said Home Design Trends takes an innovative approach to interior, exterior and pool/patio improvements.
“We aren’t fashionistas,” Weremeichik explained. “We’re looking for practical solutions that today’s consumer centric lifestyle and will substantially increase the core value of a home, improve the lifestyle of the home owner, and offer significant returns when the home is sold,” he said.
Soderstrom said the Home Design Trends newsletter has been very popular with Stirling
Sotheby’s clients who are sharing it with their families and friends.
“Most home owners understand the market has evolved. Buyers today can spot superficial design elements and they aren’t as interested in glitz and glamour as they are in value, lifestyle and function,” Soderstrom explained.
“Most luxury home buyers today are looking for classic, long-term value that will hold up over the next 10 years,” Soderstrom said. “Five years ago the hot buttons were visually powerful.
Today it’s more subtle, and buyers are more discriminating. That’s why Home Design Trends is so important,” he said.
