First-time home sellers

Selling a house is not nearly as fun as buying one.

After what feels like our bajillionth showing, and comments like, "Love the kitchen!" (thanks) "Fantastic Master Suite!" (duh, that's what happens when HGTV comes to your house) and "The yard is great!" (yes, or we wouldn't have had our wedding reception in it), I am completely heart broken when I read, "Questionable neighborhood," "Surrounding houses devalue," and "Neighbors like a trailer park," (that one in particular crushed me--after all, we bought the house with those trailer park neighbors!). 

There's only one thing left to do: 

Be a surprise Curb Appeal makeover good neighbor. 

Never mind that I'm four weeks or less from giving birth. Never mind that it's February, and sprucing up anything in February is like putting lipstick on a pig.

Never mind that my neighbor insists upon parking his camper...in his driveway...on concrete blocks...

Ok, maybe it is a trailer park. 

Our first target is this house across the street. We are ambushing this weekend. Sweet little old lady, just put on a new roof, and we are going to make her house look maaaaaaaah-velous! 

Stay tuned for the "after" post on Saturday!
