QUESTIONS????  JUST ASK!

Do home updates and staging really help in selling my home?

Without a doubt!  Staging & updates increase the desirability and competition for potential buyers of your home and decrease the desire of buyers to play games with the price for fear of losing a beautiful home to another buyer!  However, you still need to be priced correctly  for your neighborhood.  Prepare your home for a showing as carefully as you would to receive a very important guest by making them feel welcome and most important AT HOME!  Saleable paint colors, clean and uncluttered, curb appeal with yard under control, up-dated kitchens and baths.

                A Salute to:  “My Old Golf Ball”

This tiny little golf ball, so small and yet so hard,

Comes in many colors and is measured by the yard!

 

I tee it up, hit it hard and tell it where to go;

I see the flag, I know my goal, at its base a little hole!

 

Some flags are far and out of sight at the time;

Others are near and I think I’ll do just fine!

 

The story of my round  is shown in this ball;

For I have to play it no matter where it falls!

 

If it lands in the rough or even in the woods,

Danger lies in finding its way back to the good!

 

Water is always a problem, my ball sinks down;

If I don’t find it soon, my ball will surely drown!

 

Too many sand traps lie in wait to catch my ball,

I must be sure to hit it straight to avoid this pitfall!

 

In my golf game as in my life, many dangers await;

I will lose my ball if I can not hit it straight!

 

If I can only learn to meditate, focus and concentrate,

I just might master hits that are long and straight!

 

May I keep it out of the water, woods, rough and sand,

Until I sink this ball into that little hole straight over the land!

 

My old golf ball now nicked and bruised,

Proves it survived each time that it was used!
