As a Realtor I frequently work with people who need or need to get rid of furniture. The downsizing client who is moving from a four bedroom house into a condo who needs furniture to disappear fast. The first time home buyer who is moving out of an apartment into a house with not much more then a bed. While you can sell it yourself this is not always convenient if you are working and have no time. You also may not be comfortable with giving out your address and dealing with those that haggle on price. Having a garage sale in the throes of moving is also not feasible in most cases. It is to serve this need that Resale Living is here to help!
Resale Living is a furniture consignment store that accepts most anything that you would need to furnish a house. All items must be stain free, tear free, scratch free, watermark free, and smoke and pet odor free to be accepted on consignment. Also in addition to furniture is lamps, framed art, wall mirrors, clocks, area rugs, and other decorative items. So if you need to add or subtract to your furniture collection stop in and take at look around. I have included some pictures to give you an idea of what could be waiting for you to discover.
Resale Living is locally owned by Sondee Schlenker and family in Sioux Falls, SD. Resale Living is located at 3126 S. Minnesota Ave. Hours are as follows

Do you drink raw milk? I have been for four years now and I don't intend to stop. Raw milk is just milk straight from the cow. Conventional milk is pasteurized, homogenized and comes from cows injected with hormones and antibiotics. Conventional dairy cows are also fed a grain based diet to up their milk production. Pasteurization warms the milk to a temperature that kills bacteria but which also kills good enzymes in the milk as well. Homogenization puts the milk in a centrifuge and spins it to permanently mix the fat globules in the rest of the milk. Hormones and antibiotics are said to pass through into the milk. Cows fed a grain based diet also contain a different biological makeup to their milk. So these things that conventional dairies do to milk alters it from its intended state. Some people consider raw milk to be unfit for human consumption and some folks consider it the best thing since before sliced bread. Here are a few links if you would like to read up and form an opinion.

RASE November 2011 Housing Market Statistical Reporting
Sioux Falls, SD – December 9, 2011: Home prices are one of the most popular barometers of market vitality, yet they only tell part of the story. Soft prices may accompany improvements in other indicators such as purchase demand, absorption rates, seller concessions or market times. Regional, market-wide prices fall short by not recognizing the mix of homes that close each month, be it weighted toward single-family, lender-mediated or new construction. In addition, price movements often lag changes elsewhere in the marketplace. Let's see what the preferred market yardstick has measured for November 2011.
New Listings in the Sioux Empire region decreased 14.6 percent to 287. Pending Sales were down 13.9 percent to 180. Inventory levels shrank 14.4 percent to 1,837 units, a common trend across the country.
Prices were a tad soft. The Median Sales Price decreased 8.5 percent to $130,750. Days on Market increased 2.0 percent to 102 days. Absorption rates improved as Month’s Supply of Inventory was down 15.6 percent to 7.3 months.
Not only do forces beyond supply and demand affect home prices, but other factors outside of housing serve as inputs into the equation. New job growth and consumer confidence drive household formations which in turn fuels purchase demand and pressures prices. Similarly, when real incomes rise, families can afford more house and move-up buyers become increasingly motivated. To that end, the jobless rate fell from 9.0 percent to 8.6 percent in November – the lowest in 2.5 years.

One of my favorite things to do every holiday season is to load the kids up in the car and go out and look at Christmas lights. I pack up hot chocolate in a thermos and butter cookies in a tin. Then we tune in the all Christmas channel on the radio here in Sioux Falls and we are off! Sioux Falls has Christmas spirit in abundance in many different areas. Here is a list of the major holiday lanes in Sioux Falls.
