PICTURE THIS
Keeping this in mind, when putting your house on the market, make sure that the most flattering aspects of your home are in good order.
If your kitchen is in dire need of an update, you may want to feature the built-in bookcases in the den instead. Or the view from your back porch may be more telling of your home’s price tag than an architecturally bland dining room. Consult your agent to help you determine which aspects of your home are likely to be attractive to potential buyers.
Think about it: The woodwork on the banister that you fell in love with when you bought the house is likely to hit a chord with a potential buyer as well. It’s important to set your home apart from others on the market. Helping online home buyers see how your home is unique in a virtual environment is a great way to do this.

This months joke:
Question: What happens when you fall in love with a French chef?
Answer: You get all buttered up.
Maybe you’ve been bothered by a “cold” that won’t go away, or maybe you’ve recently moved into a home that smells just a little off. Either way, the culprit could be an indoor air problem.
Dust particles, pollen, molds, smoke and animal odors easily collect in your home. These invisible spores can trigger allergies and thrive in nooks and crannies that are nearly impossible to find.
An air purifier, which helps filter these particles out of the air and erase bad odors, may be the solution. And there are many on the market to choose from. Stand-alone systems or purifiers that look like ceiling fans are popular and can remove harmful pollutants and particles from your whole house.
Cleaning dark, damp areas also is important, as are regular cleanings of your rugs and draperies to keep mold, mildew and dust mites to a minimum. Combined with an air purifier, you’ll be breathing deeper in no time.

Question: What is Feng Shui?
Answer: The ancient art of Feng Shui suggests that through the proper arrangement
and decoration of surroundings one can balance their environment and
their life. The following are basic tips to increase the flow of positive
energy in your surroundings:
Have questions? email Risa at questions@risa.net or call her at 1-800-699-4901
Remove all clutter. Relinquish your role as a pack rat and
throw out all items in your home or office that are
no longer useful to you.
Fix anything that is broken or in need of repair.
If it is beyond repair throw it away.
Take care of bills and letters. You gain
clarity by taking care of the little
things and clearing your slate.
Decorate with plenty of live,
vibrant plants. Be sure to water
regularly to keep them perky.
Avoid bright, glaring overhead
lights and sharp-cornered objects.
