activerain blogging: Clean up the Dog Poop!!
- 04/13/10 09:23 AM
Everyone knows the importance of curb appeal. It's a fundamental part of proper home seliing preparations and refers to the appeal of your property to prospects, as they drive or walk by. Studies show up to 70% of your prospect traffic can be "drive-by." Actually, 100% of your physical prospects are drive by, right? They all eventually walk or drive to your property, so your curb appeal is critical. Clean - We're talking spotlessly clean! Your curb must be free of trash, lawn clippings, kids toys, tools and mess, dog poop, etc.! You want to kill a deal, have a client … (3 comments)
activerain blogging: Let go of your attachments to the home before you sell
- 04/13/10 07:51 AM
Ready, Set , Sell Every seller wants their home to sell quickly and bring top dollar. While there are some factors you can't control, like neighborhood popularity and market fluctuations, you can help your house put on its best face for showings and open houses. Before any physical preparations, you first need to prepare yourself emotionally. Begin to dissociate yourself, and decide to let go of your attachments to the home. From now on, this is a house you really want to sell, not your own beloved home.

How???????????????? Negotiate! Keep the conversation alive with the buyer for as long as you can. Do not settle right away. Always maintain open communication about your limitations with your agent; he or she is there to help you get the best price possible for your home. Remember, if the offer is too low, always counter; don't walk away. Sometimes buyers simply want to test the waters.

activerain blogging: Happy Easter
- 04/04/10 12:13 AM
Many people are wondering what Easter actually means, as the true meaning of Easter has been lost. What I can tell you is it isn’t about cute little fluffy chickens, nor does it have anything to do with Easter bunnies. It isn’t even about Easter eggs. Although an egg can represent ‘new life’ because new life hatches from the egg, and Jesus was resurrected on the third day – giving us new life in Him. But just like Christmas, the real meaning has been forgotten. For those of us that are Christians, we understand what Easter is all about. But for … (3 comments)
activerain blogging: Moving did you make a First Open Box?
- 03/31/10 08:53 AM
If your client has bought the home and are making plans to move, do they have a this box? A "first open" box with the things you’ll need most-toilet paper, soap, trash bags, scissors, hammer, screwdriver, pencils and paper, cups and plates, water, snacks, and toothpaste. I bet there are more items you could suggest for this box, please share.

activerain blogging: Home Selling Tip "Painting"
- 03/27/10 06:34 AM
Sales Tip Painting the Interior of your Home A Professional painters will probably charge you anywhere from $200 to $500 to paint each room depending on the area you live in, but with a little patience, you can paint the rooms yourself. Choose a soft color in a light brown tone (never white), and paint every room the same color. The painting will go faster if you paint the ceilings the same color, but ceilings really pop if they are a lighter color than the color of the walls. Lighter colors also make the ceilings appear higher. For a 10 … (11 comments)

Have you seen these little bugs at your house yet this year? Asian beetles, they look like Lady Bugs. Now that the temps are rising in Wisconsin these guys are coming out everywhere. If they land on you they can bite and if you crush them they stink. The best option is to suck them up in your vacuum. They are a nuisance and don't add to a homes appearance at showings. Any ideas of how to get rid of these unwelcome guests.

activerain blogging: Smells Great! Tastes even Better!
- 03/25/10 10:44 AM
A cheap and tasty way to have people love your home during showings. Not a new idea but one overlooked. Keep a roll of store-bought refrigerated chocolate-chip cookie dough and bake five or six slices while you're double-checking the house. Put the baking sheet in the dishwasher and take the cookies with you. They get the aroma, and you get the cookies!

Winter's last Hurrah!! It snow at my home this past Friday night after enjoying a week of 50-60's. My son made two giant snowballs to see how long they would last.
