There were so many negatives involved with selling this resale home in Natomas, but that was OK. I look for the negatives so I can figure out how to overcome those drawbacks. A Sacramento Realtor can't just sell the benefits. We need to smooth over those negatives. Some homes have more positive a

Guess I have got to run down to Lowes before Hurricane Lane hits to pick up extra propane and, while I'm there, supposedly my cabinet pulls have arrived. I tried to exchange propane tanks several days ago but Lowes was out of propane. Besides, I do not want to be physically inside the house, crin
