The windows have been opened, the grass has been cut and the April showers have replenished the outdoors after a long harsh winter. Spring is in the air and it is time for some cleaning at my house, and that means I need a list or I will get overwhelmed—quickly! There is nothing more gratifying that being able to mark off items on a checklist. I found a great blog called Clean Mama with all sorts of cleaning and organizing tips. The checklists, like the one in the picture below, are available to print for free! Along with spring cleaning, I like to do some spring consolidating to get rid of those clothes and random items that no longer serve a purpose.

Roanoke Virginia Short Sale properties are selling!  It seems that Roanoke VA Short Sale properties are starting to move a bit quicker than they were last year.  In the last week I have listed two Short Sale Homes in Salem VA, one of the Salem Virginia Short Sale Listings is already under contract!  This is a Bank of America Mortgage so we will see how quick they are getting on their Short Sales.  I already have one Bank of America Short Sale in the system so this will make number two.  I had a negotiator at Bank of America that was really helpful in getting deals closed but he is no longer a negotiator with Bank of America.
