In a recent blog post, I noted that home sales results for 2009 in New Albany, Ohio were off the 2008 pace.  I realize that what I didn’t say is that while sales are off, some homes in New Albany are selling.   With the spring selling season about to begin, I want to share some sure fire ways to make sure that your home is one of the ones that sells.
