January is not the peak real estate month of the year; however you can use this to your advantage. Take advantage of the low inventory of homes for sale during the winter months, there will be less competition amongst homes available. Work with your local, professional real estate agent, such as those at The Franco Team, to help you develop a selling strategy to put your home in the spotlight.
On Wednesday, January 17th, join the staff at Roger’s Gardens for an Orchid workshop. The hand-crafted Orchid Arrangement Workshop will be lead by Garden Rose Team Leaders, Chris Patterson and Shelly Burton. This is a terrific way to bring some spring feeling into your home during the winter months. This is the very first workshop of 2018 at Roger’s Gardens. The workshop begins at 5pm and runs for one hour. The workshop cost is $125. The workshop cost includes plant material, a container and step by step directions. Registration is required and cancellations are not available after January 5th.
