It is important to have good web appeal when selling your home.  Many homebuyers begin their search for new properties on the web. Include many photos of your home, both inside and out. In addition, take pictures of special features of your home such as walk-in closets, built-ins, and gorgeous gardens.  This will make the best first impression of your home on the web. Before taking pictures, make sure you de-clutter and de-personalize for the best pictures.

The Johnson Brothers Pumpkin Patch is a great place to visit this time of year.  The pumpkin patch has thousands of pumpkins to choose from.  Choose from minis to huge monster pumpkins to everything in-between.  There are also face painting and an inflatable bounce house for the kids to play in. The farm has a barnyard filled with goats, chickens, ducks, geese and even a turkey.  Many kids’ activities are free. The pumpkin patch is open every day until Halloween from 9am to 9pm. For more information about this pumpkin patch, see their website at: http://www.johnsonbros.net/.
