House Prep

Stix n Brix
Clayton, NC

We’ve been a little busy the past few days with getting the house ready to put on the market.  Gin spent some time caulking while I washed the windows and dusted the cobwebs from the walls.  Too bad I had to go to work over the weekend while she spackled the holes that were left when we took down some wall hangings.  She then did some touch up painting too.  She’s got this place looking real good.

We had two different real estate agents here yesterday to get a little input and decide which one we wanted to list our house with.  They liked the way it was cleaned up and clutter-free.  They both thought they could sell our house but it just depends on how it’s priced.  This house was custom built for us in 2000 and has many elements of universal design (handicap accessible).  We know we paid a little more for it than it was worth so we doubt that we’ll get that price.  We’ll get an appraisal in a few days and go with it. 

Our house is not really a good family style house but it is a good house for a more mature couple.  One of the agents is actually working at a new upscale 55 plus development.  We decided to go with her since she will have access to the clientele  that would be apt to buy our house.  It’ll be on the market soon.  Wish us luck!

Thanks for dropping by, and enjoy each day of your life’s journey by finding beauty in the ordinary.
