So, when the madness stops everyone has to find a seat…

Last week I had an amusing experience in coincidence. On Thursday afternoon I noticed an open house sign down the street. Odd for mid-week, but since I am planning to sell soon I though I would check it out. Turns out it was a brokers open house, where all the local brokers take a look at a place before it goes on the market. What does this mean? It means I walked into a room full of brokers and foolishly noted I was thinking of selling. After getting home I had them coming to my door and handing over business cards! :) One person who dropped by was Beverlee Vidoli, the person through whom we bought the place four years ago (she was the sellers broker then, too). Turns out she has sold the place three or fours times already, every time it has come on the market. Since May is the “hot” month for properties, she suggested that I have an open house this Sunday. I have one person at work who might buy the place, but I have to have him over to decide by Wednesday, as that is when I have to get the open-house ball rolling in time for adds toget out for the weekend paper. I also have to do a lot of cleaning, touch-up painting, yard work, and other sundry maintenance issues. Should make for a heck of a week.

We should be getting the list of electircal appliances for sale posted today or tomorrow. If anyone is interested, let me know, as I want to get as much possible cleared away before the open house!

If all goes well and it sells and stuff, then I just have a nice calm summer ahead of me. Well, somewhat calm. Then all I have to worry about is getting the cats sent over.
