Driving Signs Of Aging
Usually after 60, most people begin to
experience a few normal effects of
aging that affect driving. It can be
eyesight or reflexes, but often the aging
driver doesn’t notice the changes. Here
are a few ways to spot trouble:
Friends and family suggest that you
get your eyes checked.
Making wrong turns or getting lost
in areas that you know.
Scratches and dents that you cannot
explain.
People honking at you more often.
Almost hitting a pedestrian on the
crosswalk.
If you have experienced any of these
things, contact your doctor. A change
of medication or a pair of glasses could
save a life.

Real Estate Corner…
Q.
My home has been on the market several months. What can I do to
keep it from looking like a stale listing and get it sold?
A.
You may know price can be the most important factor in getting a home
sold, but there are other things that can give you a competitive advantage in
the marketplace. Ask for a copy of my
“28-Step Home Marketing Plan”
for
the complete list.
Three critical steps are:
Offer incentives:
Mentioning in the listing description that you are
willing to pay some of the closing costs, repairs or inspections can make a
big difference in making your home attractive to buyers.
Internet exposure:
Today’s buyers are searching for homes on real estate
search websites like
www.trulia.com
,
www.zillow.com,
and
www.realtor.com
. It is critical that the listing is re-submitted to as many
sites as possible if the price has changed.
Fresh photos:
This is particularly true if your old pictures reflect a
different season. Photos from the spring are a red flag to homes in the fall.
You can learn more about how to sell your home quickly and for the most
money possible by requesting my Free Consumer Report called

Selling Your Home For Top Dollar
