PEMBERTON HEIGHTS
Good solid 4 bdrm. home on auiet street. Large
level lot. Close to schools and only mins. to
downtown.

If there's a handy extra full bath downstairs, just right for overnight guests, you may
be so accustomed to it that you don’t consider it as a speciai selling point. Or perhaps
your children have grown, and you've forgotten how great it was to have a play area
you could supervise from the kitchen window.

On the other hand, you may not notice things that have become run down. If the garage
door has been stiff and hard-to-upen for years, you adjust to it and just pull a little harder.
If the kitchen is poorly laid out — well, you've gotten used to it.

When it's time to sell the house, though, you need to take a good took at the features
that make it more attractive to a potentia! buyer. These should be emphasized in adver-
tising and stressed in showings. And the faults? Where possible, they should be cor-
rected, or at least played down.
