A Word from Carol
Talk to
Your Realtor
Almost every week we hear a Realtor’s anguished tale of working with buyers who say they are looking for a traditional house, yet end up buying one with sleek, contemporary styling! It’s not unusual for a buyer’s search criteria to change in the process of looking at properties. To spare yourself from being shown homes that are not appropriate for you, be sure to communicate with your Realtor who is showing you properties. Explain your particular needs.

Moving With Your Pet Moving to a new home may be one of the most stressful life events you’ll ever have to tackle.

Want Free Plants? Divide Perennials Now (by Home Depot) Fall is a great time to divide the workhorses of the landscape — perennials. These plants will get established, set new roots and continue to grow throughout winter on warmer days, giving them a head start on spring. Remember to divide and transplant at least six weeks before a hard freeze. For freeze dates in your area, ask a Garden Center associate. |

Are you handy enough to take on major fix-up projects or do you want to buy a home that is in “move-in” condition? Don’t be the strong, silent type with your Realtor. Provide your Realtor with constant feedback – both negative and positive – so that he or she can rule out the homes that just won’t work for you and your family.
“Realtors® understand the importance of curb appeal because when it is time to sell, a home’s exterior is its first impression to potential buyers,” said NAR President Tom Salomone, broker-owner of Real Estate II Inc. in Coral Springs, Florida. “Realtors® also know that these projects - from flowerbeds to fire pits - can bring homeowners who have no plans to sell even more enjoyment and satisfaction in their home.” (More)

Sudoku The New Addiction!! Just in case you've never played before. The object of the game is to fit the numbers 1-9 in the correct orders. You need to fill a number from 1 to 9 in every blank cell. A number must appear only once in each row, column and 3x3 block. Sounds easy enough. Don't give up. Once you get the hang of it, its very fun and challenges your brain. (If you don't see the game on the left please try refreshing your screen. You can use F5 or your refresh button.) |
