Just a quick note on the post dated checks....I seem to recall something about post dating personal checks being not acceptable. I don't think a bank is required to honor a post dated personal check but it's something I would check with your bank about. I know businesses do it with pay checks and such but when I worked as a teller I seem to recall that it didn't apply to personal accounts. So in that case, you could be sending your rent like a month ahead of time and your landlord could cash them whenever they wanted. If that's true, you would be better off sending a money order which proves the date of purchase and seeing if there is some sort of option at the post office to simply get a receipt that you MAILED the check on a certain day. If there wasn't anything to sign for but you had a way to prove that you mailed it....seems like that would be about the only option at this point if they aren't willing to work out a direct deposit sort of thing.

It's only about 12 miles from here. Plus, the other guy who bought it, paid the moving for it. The owner of the company told us he charged him $28,000 for the house and $13,000 to move it...so he has already received $41,000 for it, and I don't know exactly where the guy wanted it moved to, but it was much farther away than our 12 miles and through several towns. This move should be very easy. It has to go around one town, via a bypass...and through Liverpool, which doesn't even have one traffic light. And that 12 miles, counts the distance around the bypass too. That's how I go every day and I drive past "my house" every day. (That's how I have kept an eye on it all this time.) It's a very easy route. The moving company just moved a house over here, about 5 miles from me. We don't have to pay the moving...we just have to pay the guy (who is in prison), or actually, his wife. Right now we are waiting on the moving company to send a release to the guy's wife, and she has to get her husband to sign it and then we will give them a cashier's check. So, probably will pay for it in about a week. Linda, I don't have to worry about skinny hips hitting the metal band. My skinny hips were gone about the same time that the linoleum counter tops went out of fashion. ;))

Thank you everyone! We have a termite and radon inspection scheduled for Wed morning. I'm not sure if they are doing a full inspection or not.....I would expect them to. Our agent is checking on this. Here are the photos of our house fully staged and no colors changed. The yard looks a lot better now and it has only been two weeks! The leaves are coming on the trees and the hostas are AWESOME! There is no pic of our daughter's room. The red and blue is our son's. The greyish/greenish is the guest suite. This house has VERY bold colors, but they are colors that many different color schemes can fit with. I'd like to post a link of our house....it shows a lot better, but you get the idea from these photos. I guess that all I can say about colors is as long as they are UPDATED colors you may be able to get away with them and NOT paint to neutralize. I'm so thankful that we didn't. As far as the staging goes....that was interesting. Not much changed to tell you the truth. We decluttered....everything! We took a book case away from the left side of the fireplace so when you walk through the front door, nothing stops your eye and they move right to the view out the back windows of the yard and golf course. We put a plate of 3 different colored grapes (fake) on the kitchen counter to show that purples can go with the red walls. We put a wire bowl full of lemons (fake) on the other side of the sink to show that yellows go in the kitchen. For every open house/showing, we placed a glass bowl full of little waters and filled the bowl with ice along with a basket of individually packaged granola bars. We had signs throughout the house in plastic holders pointing out special features ie: Shonbek chandelier stays, Please help yourself (to snacks) enjoy touring our home, built in book shelves and cabinets, new bronze lighting and faucets, etc. We had about eight of these throughout the home. I hope that this helps!!! Melissa

It looks like you are missing the good finishing of the pocket door installation by trimming it properly. The side jamb should cover the lights of the door all around, you should not see any light on top or sides of the door when you have it closed.
