Press Release Summary: Staging and design guru Janine Varney appears on her second
episode of HGTV\'s BUY me as she helps a single mom sell her fixer-upper.

Press Release Body: Local Staging and Design firm, Well Dressed Homes featured in
episode of HGTV's BUY ME.

Raleigh, NC. Monday March 10, 2008 - Tune in to HGTV on Monday March 17th at 10:30
EST and you may see Well Dressed Homes owner Janine Varney hard at work. As an
Accredited Home Staging Professional and Interior Designer, Janine has helped many
realtors sell homes faster and for the highest possible price.

In the upcoming episode Janine works to help a single mom and her teenage daughter
escape the burden of a heavy mortgage payment. Janine says, "I put a great deal of
time into creating a look that would be attractive and inviting to buyers".

Homeowner Leslie agrees and adds, "Janine gave me a whole new appreciation for my
own things. She has such a creative eye and managed to place everything so that it
looked new and fresh. It was so exciting to feel like I was living in a model home
with all my own things. The house sold quickly, and that\'s because the staging
really emphasized all the good qualities of the home while re-directing focus from
the less desirable features. If I could give one piece of advice for someone
looking to sell their home (especially in this economy), I would say: \"Hire Janine
and get the house professionally staged\". Leslie's home received an offer within 10
days of being on the market.

This is the second appearance on the show for Janine. In November of 2007 she
Staged a very large family home in North Raleigh. The house looked beautiful when
fully staged and the results speak for themselves. Within 48 hours of listing the
home, the realtor received an offer $20,000 higher than her estimate.

It has been a busy year for Janine whose talents have attracted names such as Toll
Brothers and Fonville Morisey. She has been featured in numerous publications,
including Cary Magazine, Triangle Home Improvement, Raleigh News and Observer and
Triangle Business Journal New Homes. She recently joined the Fonville Morisey
corporate training team to help educate realtors on how to use home Staging
techniques.

Janine is most proud of the success achieved with her charity "Welcome Home" which
provides a special homecoming for a serviceman and his family to show appreciation
for their efforts in serving our country. Last December Janine assembled a team of
colleagues, friends and vendors to "make-over" the home of Navy Corpsman Matthew
Chutjian and his fiancé, teacher Melissa Markus. Janine says, "It was the highlight
of my career, and I cannot wait to do it again.
