Houses, Houses, Houses

Sheri made a last minute decision to fly to Atlanta to look at more houses...Metro Brokers has a couple of billboards that list the number of houses currently on the market...There are currently 105,000 houses for sale in Atlanta...we haven't see all of them but we've seen most...

Here are a few that we looked at this weekend...but first...here are some helpful hints (from people who know) if you decide to put your house on the market:

Here are the don'ts:

1. Don't leave dirty (skid marked) underwear on the floor...it can take away from the ambiance of the rest of the house...
2. Don't let your dog run around - some potential buyers frown on dogs trying to mate with their legs.
3. Don't wear a spaghetti strap shirt without a bra if you are going to be walking around the house when a potential buyer is looking at your home...especially if your houses have begun to settle...if you know what I mean...

Here are a few dos:

1. Flush all toilets...twice if needed...
2. Vacuum your rugs...
3. Clean up all dog poop prior to potential buyers walking in your house - it would be a shame if they slipped on your dog's presents...

After house hunting on Thursday we went to Old Roswell to "Live After Five"...a nice area of Roswell where there are sidewalk restaurants, bands playing music - it's a great place to people watch...
