Selling a Home in Blythewood, SC  So you want to sell a home in Blythewood, SC and of course you have already gone through the proper steps of cleaning, de-cluttering, neutralizing the house, and sprucing up the yard. So what's another thing you can do to help ensure success. Make the house available.  This is an often overlooked step in the process that can really make or break the sale of your home.

I took a few minutes to speak with her and see how I could help and answered all of her questions the best I could.  She was out of state and looking to relocate to Columbia, so she explained that her house was currently on the market and getting good showings, so she was ready to start looking for a new home here.

 The Music Farm is a local concert venue in Downtown Columbia, SC on the edge of the city's Congaree Vista entertainment district. As my wife and I took Monkey there to perform in his first concert, I really thought his choice of a flowery shirt more than his size would make him stand out on stage. He is 7 and certainly looked like a little guy on that big stage, but he had a blast. 04/18/2018

  While I can certainly understand that at some points in life and business that there is safety in a well timed retreat, there is success in a well times strike. So often we become complacent in the safety of our comfort that we forget that in order to succeed, there is a certain amount of risk that one must take.   I myself am not one to jump on the bandwagon of every shinny object that crosses my path, but once and a while you have to roll to dice to advance.
