How low can home prices go?

Home prices are still dropping unfortunately. Sellers are finally realizing that if they want to sell their home in Michigan that they have to drop their price. Even beautiful homes with very little wrong with them are sitting on the market. You have to make yours stand out. Get your agent to email anybody that might be interested in it.

It is spring time clean up the yard, get ready to plant flowers. Make your house attractive from the street.

You as a home owner need to post it on your work bulletin board. Have your friends, family, and neighbors post on their bulletin board. Your agent should be putting it out there on as many websites as possible.

Price it right, clean it up, de -clutter it. Do everything you can to help your agent to sell your house.

Restaurant of the week to try. Bahama Breeze in Novi and I believe there is one in Rochester or Troy. Try the flatbread appetizers, or the paella for a main course. Get in the mood for summer. For more Michigan things to do (everything from museums, kids things to do, parks, adventures, shopping, restaurants)

God Bless and take care

Spring is almost here

Well tomorrow is officially the first day of Spring though you couldn't tell it here in Metro Detroit. Snow, ice and cold the day before spring. Can you believe another winter has flown by. I don't think this year's winter was that bad as compared to most. Plymouth's Ice Festival is a thing of the past and now we can start looking forward to cleaning up the yard so we have time to go out and enjoy the summer once the weather turns nice. Some of the things you need to do soon are: thatch the yard, put the spring fertilizer on, make sure the gutters are cleaned out, and wash the windows. Consistency is the key to a good yard. You know that old retired neighbor that has the beautiful yard. Well he is putting on his fertilizer/weed killer 5 or 6 times a year. Cutting the grass every 6 or 7 days all the time. Trimming the bushes three or more times. We are all so busy. We skip a fertilization here and there. Sometimes it's 10 days to get the grass cut with all the rain. And we're lucky to get the bushes trimmed twice a year after we get through running the kids around. Consistency. Let's get it done so we can head out to the ballpark.
If you are looking for something to do this week. How about going to Hitsville USA where all the big Motown Hits were recorded. Or visit Plymouth Historical Museum or contact your local city and see what historical sites they have right in your home town. There are many sites close by that will give you a background of what went on 50- 100 years before you moved into the city.
