Hi Tuggers,
We are downsizing, moving to a 55+ community after living in our 4 bedroom house for 37 years. DH was reluctantly in on the move but I want to do this, will be good for both of us. So just as we were planning to put our house up for sale, the city decided to tear up the street to put new water pipes in the neighborhood. Our street was first and project is making the street impossible to navigate. On the positive note the crew says the street will be paved mid December, before Christmas.
We will have our Christmas celebration here, with our kids for last time.
Hoping to sell quickly, but we can wait for right price.
Thanks for reading this and Happy Thanksgiving!

Congratulations, hope the sale goes well for you!

We did this 10 years ago, selling our 4 bedroom house after living there 25 years. The neighbors across the street decided to remodel and created a huge pile of debris in their front yard when we sold. It caused a few buyers to tell their realtor, keep going, as they pulled up for a showing.

We sold after burying Saint Joseph upside down near the front door :).

Great idea I’ll bury St Joseph in my yard too.

Congratulations. Our best friends just did this. Unfortunately they moved away, but they seem really happy in their new location.

Change can be invigorating. I wish you a speedy sale and a painfree move.

We sold in Washington state and moved to Nevada four and a half years ago (already!!) and time has flown since then. It was tough leaving things behind, but we couldn't be happier. The new start we made here was energizing, and we have no regrets. I hope things for you are as good as they have been here for us.

Dave

I have never heard of this before, so went to investigate. Wouldn't'cha know you can get the whole St Joseph Real Estate selling kit & prayer at Amazon! Real Estate selling success for $8. Who knew? (Black Friday deal available!)
