All too often I see sellers place the home on the market, and they suddenly stop taking care of the maintenance.  I see listings with a dying yard, gutters failing, even broken windows.  Placing a home on the market means ATTRACTING a buyer; it does not mean mentally separating yourself from the home.  Homes that were sparkling examples of the true meaning of pride of ownership, suddenly become a blight to the street once the for sale sign is planted in the yard.  A decision to purchase is an emotional decision, and we are visual by nature.  A home for sale has to deliver overwhelming emotion of how great it is going to be to live there, not reinforce the idea that I will have to cut the yard once a week through the summer.  Or rehang that tricky downspout every 3 months.  Sellers-Own t... 08/04/2011
