After all surely someone who really wants your house won't base their decision on whether you have the gift of the gab...

I also get to meet those people who have reached such a level of financial success that they are buying a home that seems like it could have been a boarding school! One of the fun aspects of inspecting large and expensive homes is seeing furnishing and interior design work at the highest level. Unfortunately, that high level does not always translate to attractive! Good-sized decorating budgets does not always mean good taste. One such mansion sticks always in my mind. Among the oldest and most prestigious sections of Jacksonville, Florida is Ortega. Situated along a wide...

There is a reality of the real estate market that is often overlooked. When selling a home, it is basically on show or on stage 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Sellers need to remember this fact as even though it may be 11 pm, prospective buyers may still drive past the home and even at that point what they see should be impressive.

The last thing any seller wants to do is to have to clean like a maniac at the last minute to accommodate a quick show. Unfortunately one thing...

When you're in the sky you don't have to face the problem of traffic. This means that you don't have to leave...

It makes sense to have enticing scents in your home when you are trying to sell it. Paying attention to the smell of a home is a fairly recent idea in terms of marketing appeal. When real estate agents first suggested that home owners baked hot buns in their oven on 'Open House' day, it was considered to be quite an innovative idea! Marketing nowadays has reached such professional proportions that different scents in different rooms are now considered to be avant-garde. Just about all of us are unaware of the smell that greets us on entering our homes. We are accustomed to it, and unless there is an usual smell in the home, we do not register any awareness of smell. If new carpets have been fitted...
