2009 Real Estate in Review
2009 was definitely a historic year for real estate. We saw the rise of the first-time homebuyer, the short sale and the increase in bank-owned properties. But what seemed bleak about 2009 is starting to wash out in the sunshine of 2010's hope.
Here's a great article on the 2009 year in review: click here

To scrub or not to scrub...
A clean home goes a long, long way when it's for sale. We've seen many, many homes that could have used an extra scrub-down before they allowed folks to come and inspect, even judge, the appearance of their home. (If you think people are not judging your home's condition, when it's on the market - think again.) And they WILL take a look at how clean it is. Even the slobbiest of slobs out there will still care if the house they are about to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on is clean or not.
Imagine yourself as a busy home buyer. You have A LOT to choose from... Let's take the choice down to two identical homes (equal in upgrades, price, and they both fit your requirements). Do you think you would choose the one with a dirty toilet or a clean toilet? I thought so! Maybe we sunk a little low to bring in the toilet-factor, but you get the point.
All homes on the market need a little boost, why not do the easiest one there is? Keep it neat. Keep it clean. It will speak VOLUMES for your home when it is tidy. Check out this article we found on some tips and tricks to keep your home clean while it's on the market: Clean Homes Show Better--Five Areas To Scrub to Make Yours Sparkle
