Real estate was an inevitable career, as she has a wonderful understanding of people, a care to assist people, and the ability to communicate well with others that allows her to share her knowledge with you. As her gardens start with a little seed and bloom into a beautiful flower, she realizes that the home selling process is very similar, at the beginning you must give it lots of care and nurture it until the transaction closes. Living in a recreational area like Crivitz, her knowledge of the area is an invaluable resource. www.comeupnorth.com

8 Tips to Make Your House Sell Faster First impressions are crucial! Mow the lawn, weed the garden or rake the leaves. Replace any burned out light bulbs. Clean out the garage and the basement. Getting rid of clutter helps make the house look much larger. Straighten the closets and storage spaces to show how much space there actually is. Clean stains on sinks or counters. Take the dishes out of the sink. Clean the house from top to bottom. Pick up clutter, scrub the floors, vacuum, etc. Make sure all pets are confined to inconspicuous areas. Make the house cheery and bright – pull up the window shades and turn the lights on. Put yourself in the place of a prospective buyer. Look critically around your whole home. www.comeupnorth.com
