Brainerd Lakes Real Estate News

I am sneezing, coughing and congested.  So are other members of my family including those who came home from Florida with me. I feel fine but am tired (probably a lack of sleep).  They, however are just miserable and have additional symptoms that I thankfully am not sharing.  Fever, chills, thick mucus, aches and a total lack of motivation (so they say).  I think that my problems are due to allergies and they have a cold or the flu.  If you are wondering about your symptoms here is a great link to About.com that will give you some help in sorting things out.  Of course, a visit to the doctor may be in order for some and do not let the Internet be a substitute for good health care!

At my house, these young and healthy individuals should bounce back quickly but since Mom (that would be me) is taking care of them and they are on vacation this could take a while.

I am continually being amazed by the brilliance of the talking minds. Joe the Plumber and others have demonstrated a level of intelligence and common sense that is just somehow escaping others. I see those who are capable of great speeches, lying through their teeth and just plainly reiterating what they have been told with no understanding of what that means. We should expect that the so called experts sent out to help our ailing economy should have some comprehension of the subject that they are "helping" on. Is that really to much to expect?  Where are these people coming from and what planet it that?  Maybe there really has been an extra terrestrial invasion!

     When your home is for sale, things need to change in a big way.  If you want to leave the lid/seat on your toilet seat up - that is for you and your wife to work out.  However, when your home is listed and people are touring - the seat and lid need to be down.  Seems like a small matter and it is.  It is also only one of a list of things that need to be done to get your home the most showings, the most offers and sell in the shortest amount of time.
     All my signed listings receive a detailed staging consultation and great advice for getting your home prepared for the market. This is a market that is packed with competition.  Unless your home is priced competitively and shows above the competition - it will linger on the market while the others sell.
     Do you want to sell or do you want to stay ? Decide now and then lets get going. This is a great time to get started.  I will advise you every step of the way and offer low or no cost ways to make your home the shining star.
Buyers are looking for move in ready properties that they can quickly personalize in their own way.
