No, the price is NOT negotiable No, the price is NOT negotiable   ...or at least not yet.  Times are tough.  Money's tight.  It's smart and prudent to try and get the best deals one can.  I get all of that.  But the ol' Econ 101 "supply and demand" thing comes into play in our chosen profession just as it does in other ones. That said.... If it's the last day in October, a place has been on the market for a while, and a prospect finds you've slipped up and left the "Available 7/1/13" line in your ad... you have nothing to gripe about when said prospect tries to bargain with you and get your place on the cheap. On the other hand... If it's that same last day in October and a place in a high-demand area such as... I don't know, Lake Mary, FL?... has been on the market for about 16 hours, ...

Seminole County, FL watering restrictions Seminole County, FL watering restrictions   Hard to believe we've already arrived at the end of Daylight Savings Time this weekend.  Around here, the end of Daylight Savings Time also signals the beginning of our stricter watering rules for the year. Information follows, but the simplest explanation is that odd-numbered homes water on Saturdays and even-numbered ones on Sundays.  Tuesdays are set aside for non-residential properties. Water's a resource that's becoming scarcer and scarcer- and folks around here take these watering rules seriously!  Violate these at your peril, for a neighbor might very well rat you out if you're watering on the wrong day- and the fines for off-day watering aren't a joke...   http://www.seminolecountyfl.gov/envsrv...

Decor Ideas for High Ceilings in Lake Mary Florida As a professional home stager and home stylist, I often get asked questions that stump people when creating a plan for their home interiors.  I’ve been asked multiple times about ideas for homes with ceilings that are taller than 12’.  The most often asked is, “How do I hang pictures?”  There is one simple easy answer:  at eye level.  A large picture hung in any other fashion; for example, centered on the wall simply won’t work.  Here’s why – how can your guests view the beautiful picture when it is so high; they can’t really see it.  So “at eye level” will always be your answer. While we’re on the topic of hanging pictures, there are many other types of arrangements as well.  I did want to point out the staircase landing.  This is a gr...

The lockbox goes on the door knob...and the door knob goes where? The lockbox goes on the door knob...and the door knob goes where?   OK... How many of you answered "On the ground"?  I can't imagine that many of my fellow Active Rainer's offering that reply/suggestion- but if you happen to be one who's inclined to believe that a lockbox's proper place is on the ground... Congratulations!  You're in fine company with the listing agent whose property I showed the other day.  It's great that their folks (apparently) replaced the door knob and deadbolt lock at this property- yet I don't quite share their belief that simply leaving this lockbox attached to the old door knob and leaving said door knob on the ground is anything close to prudent. Can't help but call this one whacked!   The lock...
