Christmas Lights all year around

By
Real Estate Agent with United Country - California Properties 01208519

I wish someone would explain to me why people leave their christmas lights up all year around. I just don't understand it.  I travel through bad neighborhoods and very nice neighborhood and there they are still hanging.  It is that they are celebrating all year around (I don't ever see them on) or are they just flat lazy.  If you know please advise.

Ken $ Linda.....It is so they do not loose their way.  Kind of like the shepherd's had their light!  just kidding......i agree it looks tacky.

I've got one word for you to explain why homeowners (or renters) would leave their Christmas lights up all year.... Incidently, it's the same reason why many real estate agents cannot make a decent living.  The trait they all have in common???   They are LAZY.  That doesn't surprise me, but what I can't figure out.... where did they get the initiative to put up the lights in the first place???

I especially like the guy who left the reindeer in the front lawn of his mobile home.

Tacky, tacky, I think it's because they are lazy!  This is why I like living in a HOA.

HOA will stop that, but they will often stop many other good things as well.  Not all is great with HOA!!!

Good news, Christmas 2008 is closer than Christmas 2007, so pretty soon, they'll turn them bad boys on!

Around our area there is a business that puts up and takes down Christmas lights for homeowners. They seem to get a lot of business.
