market analysis

our real estate agent, or at least the one who found us the house we are currently living in, is coming over later tonight to give us her market analysis on what the property is worth. we will be putting the house on the market sometime in september and we want to know how much to list it for. this is the first time we have ever sold a house, so it's kind of scary and kind of exhilirating. i'm pretty sure we'll make some money on the deal as we bought the house as a repo, for quite a few thousand dollars less than it appraised. anyway, that'll be fun. i hope we aren't disappointed.

i've been very behind on my correspondence, both email and snail mail. if i owe you a reply, please accept my apologies. no excuses, just an apology. i will reply soon. if i don't owe you a reply, then i don't apologize to you for anything. consider yourself lucky that you won't be subjected to even more of my banal, bullshit ramblings.

I promise...I won't drive you crazy here...well, I'll try not to! :)

I've sold two houses...and it's insane but in a good way. And it always motivates me to clean like a lunatic....But good luck with that! It'll all turn out just fine!

no no. you're not driving me crazy. you very well might be my only reader.

thank you for your kind words. it's nice to know that things do work out for people and it's always good to know that others have done what i'm doing and with success. :)

Here's an odd hint....

Buy one of those frozen apple pies...and when you're selling the house...put in the oven on the lowest setting...heap a ton of cinnamon on it...The house will smell really good. But don't eat that beast...Re-freeze it so you can use it every time you the house.

Typing too fast...every time you show the house....

hey, that's a pretty good idea, no matter how goofy. especially here, in mormon-land, where the odds are pretty good some young homemaker will accompany her husband, and might enjoy the cinnamon-y wafts. thanks for the tip!
