How to Keep Your Home Clean While It's on the Market
Keeping your house neat and tidy is one of the hardest parts of selling - especially if you have kids or pets.

Here's how to make things easier:

  • Use a robot vacuum. Turn it on as you leave the property, and the floor will be spick and span by the time buyers arrive.
  • Declare some rooms off limits. Keep some rooms closed off to limit messes.

I should keep this a secret.  By writing about this, I'm opening this up to everyone.  Well, I guess I just feel like sharing to set the record straight.  My husband, Skip read that Raleigh, NC was the number 3 location in the U.S. for Millenials to live. Sure.  I can see that.  Raleigh has a lot to offer.  Of course it is also considered on some lists to be the number one place to live. I decided to research how various cities ranked for the number one place to live for various reasons, and since Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill, (locally known and grouped together as The Triangle) are often listed as number one in myriad categories.  Statistics aren't out yet for 2020 but I am willing to bet that we will make it on some lists again since it seems to be on everyone's radar these days. "Why?" you may ask.  Besides a great lifestyle offering something for everyone, relatively low costs, and great working environments, there is also tremendo...
