Santa Clause is Coming to Town


It's that time of year again, when all the little kiddies will be out on the town for Toronto's Santa Clause parade.  I used to love watching my kids go by in the floats during the parade and there is just a touch of nostalgia when I think that we'll be watching from the sidelines this year.  Great weather and great occasion.  I am also looking forward to our own Santa Clause parade here in Downtown Oakville on Saturday November 19th.  Be sure to check out the colouring contest click here for details

That means that the home will occasionally be cluttered, appear to actually be lived-in, and may not always smell the best – particularly if animals are in residence. Such things can make an unfavourable impression on buyers, but fortunately there are a few handy techniques that can make staging your home look as if it has just been cleaned by a professional.
