Yes, it's true. When there is a motivated Seller who keeps their house clean, is willing to accommodate showings on last minute notice and who agrees to the Buyers requests for repairs even when it's more than they wanted to agree to, that Seller can and will sell their house in today's market! Case in point, I listed a home four months ago at 141 Fig Tree Run in Longwood Club, which is a community in Seminole County. Fortunately, the Seller was a true "follower" of directions and took the advice I shared seriously. The house was always clean, the grass was well maintained, they "packed up" their unnecessary clutter and they were ready within a moments notice to make the home available to show...even though they had two dogs and two children! It took 32 showings, one price reduction and... 07/01/2008

You can imagine my joy (okay both of my kids' joy!) when, while driving back from my oldest son's soccer practice this morning, we see SPIDER MAN!  We were on 434, just West of 17-92 (right by the comic book store and North of Albertson's) and we snapped these two quick pictures.   It's good to see there are crimefighters in my neighborhood in Longwood who are willing to sweat in the sun to protect our lucky citizens.  (Grin.)   We got the thumb's up from Spidey as we snapped off the first picture, too.  The boys were THRILLED.  So, we drove past a second time.  Looks like in the second picture, Spidey is actually keeping a lookout for crime.  Boy, do I feel safe now.  Yep, my two sons and my husband are definitely CRAZY for any superhero.   Have an awesome weekend!  Hey, maybe if YOU'R... 03/29/2008
