2. CONSULTING
(1) Owners and buyers of modernist architecture can easily be baffled when facing a remodel, renovation or rehab of their home.
This is especially true when the house has been altered with less than a keen eye for period-correct details – think of a Home Depot kitchen in a Frank Lloyd Wright-home, or a budget entry door with fake Tiffany glass in a Bauhaus-style residence.

In such instances, Tobias Kaiser is available to help. He will assist with colour coordination, sourcing of furniture and hard-to-find items, material choices and a variety of others tasks.
For larger or more involved projects that have to be outsourced, Tobias will help selecting modernist experts such as architects, interior designers or contractors.
(2) Another type of Consulting Service Tobias created by demand is assisting anyone who needs an objective opinion in a real estate matter. “Objective” means “Professional Independent Advice, not interested in a specific outcome of the transaction”. Often enough one encounters a situation where it is wise to get a second or even third opinion, especially when substantial amounts of money are on the table and long-lasting decisions have to be made.
Example: when surprising questions or difficult situations arise during a property search or contract negotiations, it pays to get an independent real estate consultant on board. The advantages:
The catch? None. The client's risk exposure: no more than a consulting fee. When tens or often hundreds of thousands of dollars are at stake, being penny-wise and pound-foolish is not a good plan.

Example: when surprising questions or difficult situations arise during a property search or contract negotiations, it pays to get an independent real estate consultant on board. The advantages:
- He/she is hired based on a consulting fee, thus has no interest in closing on a specific property.
- Because this is a consulting task, not brokering, the usual state restrictions for real estate agents and brokers – which would normally prevent, say, a Florida broker to work in North Carolina or Pennsylvania – do not apply.
The catch? None. The client's risk exposure: no more than a consulting fee. When tens or often hundreds of thousands of dollars are at stake, being penny-wise and pound-foolish is not a good plan.
3. CONSTRUCTION CONSULTING
If you consider a ground-up construction, renovation or expansion, not only can Tobias Kaiser assist you by pointing you to the right sources.
He also has extensive experience in working on site as an Owner's Representative – especially necessary for any project involving an absentee or busy owner.
Example: on the project shown above – a 5,000 sf multi-million dollar ground-up construction – Tobias identified the lot, assembled suitable architects and worked for three years on site as the owners representative, literally until the night the movers left and the owners had moved in.

4. STAGING
Staging refers to preparing a property for selling, and can range from a simple de-clutter, clean up and furniture re-arrangement to exterior/interior painting and renting appropriate furniture to show a property at its best.
Staging, now often virtual staging, has been shown to help visualise homes better on photos and during showings, and to increase actual sales prices.
