1 June 28, 2014 To anyone facing the challenge of selling a house: If you run across Mansion Minders and the dedication of Brenda Platt, make a connection immediately. I have learned this lesson the hard way. I had a house on the market forever, having loosely heard of the concept of having people live in it so that it shows better. But I held that concept at arm's length, figuring it might be more trouble than it's worth-- moving someone in, worrying about what they're doing, wondering if it really was a better idea than the simplicity of an empty house potential buyers could merely imagine their own stuff in. I could not have been more wrong. An empty house-- even a "staged" house, with some items tossed about so it's not so dead-- is no match for an occupied home with real people who can care for it, and get promptly out of the way if a showing arises. That, too, was part of my hesitation. I pitied the poor souls who would have to scramble every time the phone rang so that some realtor could show my house. But this has been my education, and I share it with you so you don't make the same mistake. The "Minders--" the people who will live in your house, are thrilled to be there. They're getting a big break on costs vs. renting, and they know full well that flexibility is vital. They are screened heavily by Brenda and her colleagues so that you do not have to worry about who's moving in. This leads me to the good people who did move into my house-- and then promptly out about nine weeks later, because-- please read this twice-- my house sold that quickly after an eternity of inactivity on the market. Could I have sold it by slashing the price? Of course. But once we had Mansion Minders in our corner, we did not have to. We sold for more than we expected because the appeal of the house was greater due to the Mansion Minders "touch." Our minders were incredibly grateful and helpful, as we were indebted to them for having been such good stewards of our property. Any Minder will want as pleasant a stay as possible, so they will be vigilant about noticing some things that might need fine-tuning to improve the home's appeal. This leads me to Brenda herself. Her devotion to her craft means her Minders are happy-- but the happiest folks are those of us who find our houses actually selling due to her diligence and attentiveness. She managed the triangulation masterfully between her office, the Minders and me, and this cannot be easy with so many parallel interests-- some folks looking for a home to live in, others looking to sell, all with needs to be addressed. Well, she addresses them Quickly and professionally, with a great attitude and a heart for service. My realtor gets the commission, but I owe Brenda big-time. So if this letter helps her-- and if it helps you by encouraging your use of Mansion Minders-- then I am happy.

2 May 4, 2014 To whom it may concern, We had our home at 7725 Marquette in Dallas on the market for over a year. We were skeptical about putting mansion minders in the home. After much reluctance, we finally decided to give it a try. We were not receiving any positive feedback on the home with it being vacant. Once we put Mansion Minders with their beautiful furnishings in the home, we had multiple offers in less than 30 days! We wish we would have used them sooner. I am also a Realtor in the area for over 18 years, so I can now positively recommend mansion minders as a Realtor and a homeowner. Please feel free to call me if you would like to discuss our experience with Mansion Minders. Jaime Tomlin Voted D Magazine Best Realtors Allie Beth Allman & Associates Sold@TomlinResidential.com

4 YourHomeStrategy Helping Homeowners - Improve Their Results Brenda & Paul, We want to Thank You both, for the amazing service that your company performs, for both the seller's of unoccupied properties as well as the Mansion Minders who live in them. As you know, I have personally been in the real estate business for well over 40 years but until Russell Rhodes our Listing Agent on the last home we sold, told us about you, I had never known that a service like yours ever even existed. All I can say is that for anyone who is not quite sure where their next move should be -- before you go ahead and make the wrong decision, you owe to yourself to give Brenda Platt a call. Finally for anyone who has a vacant home ready to sell or listing agents needing to sell their listings faster, without lowering the price, this is the absolute best way to get that done. Sincerely, Joe & Earlyne

5 November 28, 2011 Dear Brenda, Rick and I would like to thank you for stepping in to help us sell our house when our first sale fell through due to the buyer s inability to obtain financing. We thought we had it sold so we moved into our new home we had built. The day of the sale, their realtor suddenly throws us for a loop with the bad news. We were desperate to find a solution to our problem. That solution came as a recommendation from our realtor to try Mansion Minders. We talked with you and looked over all your information and decided it was worth our peace of mind to do it. The best part of the deal is that Mansion Minders is a free service that takes over all utilities and upkeep of our yard, and pool plus keeping it in show condition at all times. You had a minder that had just helped sell another home in 30 days and we were hoping his good Karma would work its magic. Dennis moved into our home after being empty for 30 days and decorated it beautifully with his furniture, which included many beautiful antiques. Once again, Dennis became the good luck charm that helped sell our home. We had an offer on our home 6 weeks later and went to the sale one month after that. Brenda, we will be forever grateful that you stepped in at a time when we most needed it. Your attention to detail and the care of our property was impeccable. We have already recommended Mansion Minders to another friend that has to relocate to another state and have not sold their home since being on the market for 6 months. Hopefully they can snag Dennis first before someone else gets him; he is a good luck charm! Sincerely, Rick and Pamla Pearce Keller, TX
