What on Earth can we say about 2015? 
We built things Up, and We tore things down. 
We sold things and bought things, most often without a frown. 
We learned and listened; even taught some sassy things too, 
Always explaining why Red is superior to the color Blue. 
But Best of All, we Loved and Laughed and Smiled through, 
knowing that all the while, we consistently delivered the Very Finest for You.  
Happy New Year 2016!
The Very Best Red Jacket Year is just about to get started.

Staging Tips for the New Year
While every property is different, there are many staging rules that ring true across the board. Here are a few of my favorites;
1) LESS IS MORE - Get organized, edit your collections, de-clutter and prepare to move.
2) LIGHT IS BEST - Dark walls? Do your wallet a favor and paint them white or lighter.
Also, replace energy saving bulbs with halogen bulbs. They give off a very luxurious light.
3) IMPACT! - Chose one large piece of art instead of several smaller ones. Gives Focus.
4) CLEAN LIKE YOU MEAN IT - Top to Bottom, inside and out, with special attention to windows.
5) TRANSPARENT - You should be able to see from one side of a given room to the other without site blocks. Eliminate dark, brown, oversized furniture and replace with spindley mid-century modern designs in neutral tones with lots of texture and plenty of floor clearance.
Light, Bright and Neutral will win the day!

The Magic Touch of The Red Jacket 

It was such a pleasure being turned into a cartoon by the very talented Angie Jordan of Live Digital Caricatures. I think she really captured the zest and vigor that The Red Jacket has for all our many facets. Whether selling or buying the finest real estate in New York City for our clients or staging their homes in preparation for the marketing of their apartments, we meet every challenge with the the goal of surpassing our clients expectations.   
Happy New Year from The Red Jacket

The Winter Antiques Show
I am so pleased to be on The 2016 Benefit Committee of The Winter Antiques Show, which marks its 62nd year as the most prestigious art, antiques, and design fair in America, featuring the "best of the best" from Antiquity through the present. Held at the historic Park Avenue Armory in New York City, the Show provides new and established collectors, curators, dealers, and design professionals with opportunities to view and purchase exceptional pieces showcased by 73 exhibitors. One-third of the Show's exhibitors are specialists in Americana, with the rest featuring English, European, and Asian fine and decorative arts.
The Winter Antiques Show is an annual benefit for East Side House Settlement, a community resource in the South Bronx that celebrates its 125th anniversary in 2016. East Side House's programs focus on education and technology as gateways out of poverty and as the keys to economic opportunity. All revenues from the show's general admissions and the net proceeds from the preview parties and other events go East Side House and contribute substantially to its private philanthropic budget. 
Hope to see you on the 28th! Let me know if you would like information about tickets. 
Join me for a wonderful night benefiting East Side HS
