List to sell? or List to sit? I'm a licensed Realtor, selling my own home.Sellers most of the time want to list higher than the agent recommends. So, I didn't put the price on my house, I had very experience agents in my office do it and both came up with the same number. I ended up in multiple offer situation..never expecting it to even get an offer that fast (4days). Back to the listing price my husband wanted to put it on the market at a higher price, but I wouldn't do it. I never thought with that price range, in my area we would get close to the asking price. Highest priced house in the neighborhood and it went over the asking price.I'm glad it went fast, getting it ready to show, take the dog and leave the house...I had to only do it 1 time and the 2nd time the buyers that made on... 08/19/2016

Having dirty tenants can be a landlord or property managers worst nightmare, they are not only expensive they also bring down the value of the rental property by giving a bad perception. Nobody wants to live next to a smelly dirty home or apartment. Living conditions that are dirty can cause damage to the property, provide insect and rodent inducing conditions, reduce property value of your house and potentially the neighborhood. One of the simplest ways to determine if a tenant is going to be a slob is by taking a peak inside the prospective tenant’s car. If the prospect is generally unkempt themselves this also may be a bad sign. If while doing a routine inspection, or if an issue was brought to your attention by a concerned (or disgusted) neighbor, you find that you have a dirty tena... 01/15/2015
