Reflecting...... Thank You To All Our Fallen Heroes!

Remembering our fallen heroes, on this, Memorial Day,

 to honor their supreme sacrifice to protect our freedoms, which,

 we take for granted all too often. The men and women in uniform, 

and civilians, who all paid the ultimate price, will hold a special place

 in my heart, this day..... and always.

To Convey Or Not To Convey!

Click on the link below and read the Realtor® Magazine article on fixture feuds and how to avoid them.  As often as I have the discussion during listing appointments and instruct my sellers that if there is ANYTHING they are planning on taking with them, a ceiling fan, window treatments, etc... that the time to pack it up is at the time of listing, to avoid confusion.  I am amazed that some soft window treatments, all of a sudden, become a MUST TAKE item, upon close.  Several times it has become an issue AT the closing table after the buyer has completed their walk through and discover some curtains are gone.  Don't let this happen to you!  

Fixture Feuds Can Be Avoided!
