Be careful of odors in your home. If your family room smells stuffy and stale, or if your cat or dog has left a distinctive odor in the hallway, take action by eliminating the source of the odor rather than merely treating the effects.

I would like to see a system that would allow buyers and agents rate homes currently on the market. I am so sick of wasting my time and my client's time going to homes that sound good on the description but are misrepresented just to draw buyers in.
