The market is picking up and I am getting more confident in saying that now that the holidays are over our spring market is starting. Sellers need to get ready to list their home and buyers should be out there now before everyone else!

What’s Hot!

Neflix and Chill. One of my favorite past times. Recently a new show came out called Tidying Up. The host is Marie Kondo and goes into homes and tells people that if something doesn’t Spark Joy they should get rid of it… after thanking it. There is a specific order to tidying up clothes, books, papers, misc, and then sentimental. Touch the item, if it sparks joy you get to keep it. I get the idea of Sparking Joy and why you would do it. But answer me this… The dishes don’t spark joy for me... so I’m out. 

Tip of the Day-

If you are moving and have to be out of your current home or rental by a certain day. Don’t wait until a week before your move out date to start Tidying up with Marie Kondo. Start a lot early, seller’s start the second you think you might want to move even before your home is on the market. Buyers start as soon as you think you might be want to move. If you wait until the last minute there will be no joy for anyone.

Truth or Fail-

Did you start Tidying Up and Sparking Joy after watching the show on Netflix?
