Broom Sweep/Clean Out
Braswell Galleries offers a Broom Sweep / Clean-Out service leaving the premises in clean and sellable condition. This highly desired service could be combined with consignment outright purchase to make moving or estate situations simple.
Staging Of Location
When selling your home nothing is more important than a first impression. Staging of location allows your home to be shown at it’s best – letting Braswell’s do it could save you up to $1,000 or more. We offer the option to pick up in two parts, clutter first and the balance later.
You don’t need to redecorate rooms to get the apartment to sell; Braswell Galleries can remove the unnecessary items and leave the apartment clean and simple. Staging highlights the possibilities of a room and creates a vision of what it can offer a potential buyer.
This type of service is becoming very popular, especially among Real Estate agents and has been featured in TLC’s Property Ladder, ABC’s 2020, NBC’s The Today Show and many more.
