Ann Maurice

Born and raised in California, Ann got into the competitive housing market by selling real estate in the San Francisco Bay area for thirteen years. She then crossed the Atlantic to introduce the concept of 'Home Staging' or 'House Doctoring' in Great Britain, and showed viewers how to successfully prepare their homes for sale from

both the practical and aesthetic points of view.

Ann has a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Michigan, studied Interior Design at the University of California and is a graduate of the Colour Research Institute of America. When she is not in the UK filming House Doctor, Ann divides her time between her main home in San Francisco, California and her holiday home in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Her most recent interior design project is a studio garden flat conversion in San Francisco.

Ann Maurice Book: "House Doctor: How to Add £££s to the Value of Your Home"
This book accompanies the popular Channel 5 series featuring the very straight-talking Californian property stylist. Her mission: to make simple, inexpensive changes to the presentation of your home to increase its value and your chances of selling it. As Ann continually reiterates, the biggest mistake sellers make is in assuming that because they love their home, a prospective buyer will feel the same.

Ann Maurice Book: "House Doctor: Instant Makeovers"
Packed with hints and tips for fixing up the house and adding hundreds to its value, this book is aimed at all home enthusiasts. Each house is dealt with in its entirety and there is more focus on the owners of the houses than in the two previous books. A number of different styles are covered: Victorian; country; retro; minimalist chic; seaside; and so forth. The key components needed to get a particular look are detailed and illustrated.
