When you click on any of the links below, you'll see the site you chose, along with a form at the bottom of your screen. Use it to get answers for any questions you might have about anything you find.
Remember: It's my job to know more about real estate than any web site!
REAL ESTATE NEWS
Realty Times is the leading online source for real estate news. Also try The Wall Street Journal, RIS Media, GlobeSt.com, or Inman News.

Realtor.com is the most well known. Also visit MSN House & Home, Homeseekers, and Yahoo Real Estate. Try Homebrowser.com.
GOVERNMENT REAL ESTATE RESOURCES

Selling Your Home >House Odors
What is "H.O."? You can probably guess--it means "house odors".
Be careful of odors in your home. If your family room smells stuffy and stale, or if your cat or dog has left a distinctive odor in the hallway, take action by eliminating the source of the odor rather than merely treating the effects.
Smells have a powerful effect on the way people react to a house, and no amount of room freshener or vanilla on the light bulbs can mask a serious odor problem. In fact, such remedies may draw attention to the problem. Real estate agents have seen homes with an odor problem languish unsold on the market for months or sell for significantly less than comparable homes in the neighborhood.
If you think that you may have a problem, talk candidly with your real estate agent. Your agent should be able to offer some constructive suggestions, and perhaps refer you to a professional who can help banish H.O. from your home!
