If you are planning on selling your home this year...you're gonna have to DECLUTTER first. As I walk through your home and see it with "BUYER'S EYES" it is discouraging.

 I found this "advertisement" postcard within my marketing fields on my Market Leader Website. I had to use it as a picture. I loved it. Couldn't resist. Sorry.
