New Year, New Experiences!

Purged the house of all the seasonal decorations yet? I've noticed that the stores not only have all the Christmas decorations and candies piled into clearance bins, but they already have the Valentines stuff out! My first thought was "whoa, take it easy! Let us ease into the new year first, before hitting us over the head with the next "occasion". But really, before we know it, we will be out there, reading sappy Valentines cards and reaching for heart shaped boxes. Also, before we know it, we'll be in the middle of the spring market! A lot of families I know have expressed interest in listing their homes and moving onward and upward, but are waiting for spring. Well, sorry to wake you from winter hibernation, but the spring market typically starts in about 5-6 weeks! If you've been planning on tearing down that wall paper and painting, or finally gutting the basement before listing, now is the time to act!
