Lyn, decluttering and cleaning the house is essential. I don't think people realize how much of a difference cleaning up makes!

This is a great service for your consumers/customers/clients in your area.  I may take your suggestions on a few of my, hmmmm, less than de-cluttered areas.  :-)

Carla:  Isn't it amazing how much starts to pile up?

Maria: I wish sellers would really take this to heart, buyers don't want to be distracted with all the extra stuff that people have.

Lyn ~ All of us have TOO MUCH stuff which is OK as long as you're staying in your home -- but when it's time to sell, better donate, pack up, and put in storage!
