Does Your Home Say Buyer Beware?

Finch-Realty-Home-For-Sale

Preparing your home to sell is a stressful experience. We all accumulate items we no longer need or want. You may not think of it as clutter but a buyer will.

  • Purge every closet and drawer of unwanted items and don’t forget to get rid of countertop clutter.
  • Schedule a donation service to pick up items no longer needed and keep all of your receipts for any tax deductions.
  • Enlist the help of a professional organizer or friend to help.
  • Hire a handyman for needed repairs. It can make a big difference when showing your home.

A prospective buyer should envision their new life in your home. The end result, SOLD!

Updating your desktop can be an instant pick me up and an inexpensive, simple way to stay organized. Having all the items you need prevents the dreaded piles from stacking up.

Keep a notebook on your desk for to do lists or to jot down any ideas that pop into your head. Use a desktop filing system to pay your bills and then drop them directly into the file box. Good lighting is important and a small vase filled with fresh flowers or a plant makes the area feel less sterile.

You want to create a stress free environment to make any job seem less tedious.

nordstromI was one of the people who could not use Latisse because it felt like I had glass scratching my eyes. I was so disappointed because it worked. I did some research about other options and decided to try this. It gave me the same long, healthy lashes but without the irritation. You have to be consistent and use it daily to see the results. It is bit pricey but well worth it. I get so many compliments on my lashes and it is because of this product.

thumbnailI love this new song and music video from Michael Jackson and Justin Timberlake. It is a throw back to the 80’s and the days of MJ’s Quincy Jones collaborations. Listen once and you will be hooked.taiaa3010438318_q1_1-0_336x596This Tai necklace can be worn alone or layer it with other necklaces. It is reasonably priced and would make a great graduation or birthday gift.

blue mercuryI have been using this Gel Eyeliner in black for almost a year.  It is long wearing, does not smear or give me raccoon eye at the end of the day. I just bought it in brown for a daytime look and I love it just as much. Trish McEvoy also has great how-to videos that are worth watching.

sephoraThis nail polish is my new favorite neutral. It has a touch of pearl shimmer so it is not your basic boring pink. It looks like you are wearing gel nail polish because of the high shine and the polish lasts longer without chipping. I am looking forward to trying more colors.
