The Inside Scoop: Why Cassie French’s Unique Experience in Home Staging and Flipping Sets Her Apart as a Newport Beach Realtor
As a seasoned real estate agent in Newport Beach with a background as a home flipper, my experience renovating just under 100 homes since 2015 has given me a unique perspective on what makes a property irresistible to buyers. This experience is the foundation of my value proposition as a listing agent, setting me apart in an industry where standing out is crucial.
The Home Flipper Advantage: Designing Homes for Buyers, Not Myself
One of the biggest challenges in real estate is knowing what makes a home stand out in the eyes of a buyer. Many homes on the market blend into one another—white walls, white furniture, and generic design that lacks personality. My background as a home flipper has taught me to look beyond the cookie-cutter approach. When I list a property, I design it specifically with the buyer in mind, not based on expensive personal tastes or trends that don't the return on investment you are looking for when you sell your home. I make sure to resonate with today's market without having to break the bank. I know a lot of people will think this is impossible and to be honest having this “balling on a budget” interior design skill is much harder to hone than buying that gorgeous zellige tile you see on every Pinterest board.
I understand what buyers want because I've been in their shoes. I've designed and renovated homes with a clear vision of what would make someone fall in love with the property the moment they see it. This insight allows me to create spaces that captivate potential buyers, turning ordinary listings into extraordinary opportunities.
Eye-Catching Staging and Photography: Creating a Scroll-Stopping Experience
With my home staging business, Classy AF Interiors, I know that Staging is not just about filling a house with furniture; it's about creating a vision that tells a story. I use eye-catching staging techniques to make sure your home stands out online. When buyers are scrolling through listings, I want them to pause and take a closer look at your property.
My experience in home flipping means I know how to highlight a home's best features and use design elements that draw attention where it matters most. Through high-quality photography and strategic angles, I make sure your property doesn’t just fit in with the rest—it shines in a way that compels buyers to take the next step.
Strategic Marketing and Targeted Branding
Listing a home is about more than just putting it on the market; it's about crafting a narrative that speaks directly to the ideal buyer. Through my experience, I've developed the ability to identify precisely who that buyer is and create a marketing strategy that caters to their preferences. From crafting compelling descriptions to showcasing the home's lifestyle potential, I ensure that every detail is thoughtfully curated.
