I went on a Realtor tour yesterday and the one glaring complaint I had about over half the homes was weeds and lack of care to your grass. Your lawn sets the tone for the entire showing. If its overgrow with weeds and brown that suttley suggests to the potential buyers that you do not keep up with your home's maintenance. If its green and lush and mowed, it suggests to your buyer's that you were able to keep up with your home's maintenance.

When showing homes and the yard isn't mowed 9/10 times we may as well leave the property immediately. Yes the buyer's are that turned off by thinking of the time investment to relandscape.

Just remember the outside appearance is just as important if not more important than the inside appearance.

I have just returned home from seeing Arthur with my wife. Wow Russel Brand has a dry sense of humor. This theater is a true blast from the past some sort of 1960's space age theme. More importantly it might be the best entertainment value in Omaha. Tickets are just 3 dollars a piece. That means you can afford to take the whole family. Sure the movies are a month or two old, but if this is the theater you frequent they will always be new to you!

When coming home to Nebraska I looked long and hard to find the best brokerage I could to support my real estate business. My search stopped when I found Century 21 Century Real Estate and Mark Hart. I have never met such an honest broker/owner who gives you a straight answer even if its not the one you wanted to here. The office is very tight nit without your usual clicks.

Its family run so if you have a suggestion or a question, but it is also supported by the world's largest real estate network Century 21. With most of the larger brokerages in Nebraska being independent and not connected to a large company this can be a huge advantage for our buyers and sellers.

If you are looking to buy or sell a home in the Bellevue or Omaha area, or are considering a call in real estate give me a call I would love to help you in any way I could.

I have two Pugs Coco and Penelope that I just adore. I recently found a pug meetup group that is just a hoot.

They seem to meet up pretty frequently and everyone is super friendly and my pugs just love the attention and interaction they get with other pugs. So if you have a pug that needs some social time or you just love pugs check out the dates and come check out all the little rascals.

The Meadows Subdivision are now for sale. What a great way for people whom i share my neighborhood with to meet their neighbors and cool off in the summer. Its relatively inexpensive 100 dollars for the season per household i believe. What a great way to get involved in your community and meet people. I will be there on many nice sunny days. Hope to see you there.
