Episode 171 - How Interior Design Affects Real Estate With Guest Kathleen Dewitt – Charleston Real Estate Agent

In this episode we discuss how interior design affects real estate with our special guest, Kathleen Dewitt, a Charleston, SC real estate agent. We recently completed a photo shoot of an amazing home we designed in Kiawah Island in Charleston. We love this area of the South and the beautiful architecture and homes throughout. Kathleen DeWitt has a remarkable ability to establish meaningful connections with people, has a keen eye for design and offers insight into the impact of interior design when buying or selling a home.

Key Takeways:

  1. A professionally designed home can help make a property more marketable, sell faster and you get your money two-fold in return.

  2. If something is done very well, a homeowner doesn’t need to panic on how it will present itself. You don’t have to do “vanilla” and worry that a future homeowner won’t like a bolder design. Don’t be afraid of navy-blue cabinets or wallpaper!

  3. A designer can come into a home that is already furnished and can make edits with a space plan, removing or adding objects and give it a special “flare” that just makes it show better!
