December 9th and it is a BEAUTIFUL day here in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina! This Monarch butterfly seems to agree with me and some of my flowers. Did you know that they only live 2 - 8 weeks? I'm glad I have some great choices for it to enjoy during such a short life span.

How do Holidays affect selling a home?

People always ask if it will hurt them being listed during the holidays. Well, in the big picture - NO. Here are the listings I'm advertising and the information I can learn about them. You can clearly see that the week of Thanksgiving 1000 less people were looking online. However, the people that wanted more details (probably more serious buyers) decreased by only 63 people. So some decrease but remember it was just specific to that week and then right back up!

Interest Rates are GREAT! Ready to buy or sell?

Every Dog has its Day

You work, work, work and wonder when a break will come! Well, if you are a dog you may just have to dream about the ball and frisbee. Just when you think you can lay down on the rug by the door you just never know when a cat may think differently. No sleep for the weary. Jazz is on duty and keeping creatures at bay!

What bothers you in this picture (if anything)...

Sitting Room

All in all this is a cute little sitting area. The bookshelves are relatively neat. The tv could be larger but it fits the space fine. The rug could be a bit larger but the wood floors are nice. Furniture placement is good for conversation and still allows access to the patio door. What really catches my eye and rubs me wrong is that the ceiling fan is not centered with the specific area. It is centered with the whole room. I'm sure that duct work played into the placement. Whatever the reasons, I'm so tired of walking into house after house and seeing fixtures that can not center with a table or a room.
