Is your listing agent going through your home before it comes on the market to make sure everything looks perfect?

Kim personally inspects every home to make sure it is on par with what she wants it to look like BEFORE the photographer arrives to take the listing photos.

In this behind-the-scenes video, Kim Colaprete — one of Seattle’s top listing agents — walks through a Ballard home for a final pre-market check. And yes, she does this herself.

From reviewing the staging to checking for last-minute repairs, Kim personally ensures every detail is dialed in before launch day. In this North Seattle home, she also shares how her design expertise helped transform the original “millennial gray” aesthetic using bold color choices that create warmth, contrast, and emotional impact for buyers.

This is the level of care and strategy is wahat separates an average hohum listing from a Diva Dwelling!
