Home staging is the strategy of preparing a home for sale, but it’s not just about cleaning and decluttering, though those are essential. The goal is to create an inviting, neutral space that will appeal to a broad range of potential buyers. Whether it’s for a historic downtown duplex or a house on the marsh, home staging can be the difference between a quick, lucrative sale and a stagnant listing. Local experts from , Realty ONE Group, Staging-By Design, and Clutter Furnishings and Interiors give their best home staging tips.

The story of Savannah’s historic waterfront is as old as Georgia itself. It dates back to 1733, when the Colony of Georgia was founded on the banks of the Savannah River, right where River Street exists today. Since its beginning, Savannah’s waterfront has undergone many changes, including the Riverfront Urban Renewal Project in the 1970s, which spanned a half-mile along the river and included the construction of Rousakis Plaza. The waterfront once again is due for a revitalization, this time under the Savannah's Waterfront Community Improvement District Board. Its Waterfront Vision and Implementation Plan aims to use funding earmarked for tourism development to improve River Street’s security, functionality, attractiveness, and connectivity to Bay Street.

🎟️ Tickets on sale now!
https://www.savannahvoicefestival.org/events-tickets/

Join Savannah VOICE Festival for their 2025 Summer Festival, "Once Upon a Time," as they celebrate the VOICE Programs' 25 years of educating aspiring singers, honor Maestro Milnes’ 90th birthday, and recognize the 60th anniversary of Sherrill’s debut at the Metropolitan Opera and his great performances at all major opera houses around the world.

Go on a fairy tale journey that includes the world premiere of "Cinderella’s Royal Feast" by Michael Ching, an opera written and presented in collaboration with students from Esther F. Garrison School for the Arts; a concert directed by famed composer David Friedman; and a celebration of Sherrill Milnes' career, culminating with Verdi’s Rigoletto, one of Sherrill's most acclaimed roles.

Savannah VOICE Festival and the Sherrill Milnes VOICE Programs were established by world-renowned baritone Sherrill Milnes and his wife, acclaimed soprano Maria Zouves. Their vision: to perpetuate the legacy of great singing through arts education, artistic training, audience development and community engagement with access for all.

Today the Milnes VOICE Programs continue to honor and fulfill the founders’ vision through a celebration of concerts, educational programs, and community events during the month of August and special presentations throughout the year.

Patience is its own reward, as the saying goes. And for Joellen Cooper-Pyles and Victor Deen, their patience has manifested in a beautiful riverfront luxury condo. In February, the couple moved into The Mayors building in the Upper East River neighborhood. It’s a penthouse-style building that embodies the finest in waterfront living, including 75 feet of floor-to-ceiling windows, sliding doors, and a private terrace, all offering expansive sights of the river and its denizens, including massive cargo ships gliding past.
