You are not alone if you are also in a lot of debt. However, there is a key difference between being in a lot of debt and having a lot of different debts.The strategy you are about to learn is going to help you if you have a lot of different forms of debt. The strategy is also going to help save your credit score or bring it up if your credit score is already low.Here are the common debt forms you may have:- Credit Cards (most common)- Car Loan- Personal Bank Loan- Business Loan- Home LoanThe main problem is that you are probably moving along paying a portion of each debt every month, little by little. Let's assume you have 5 debts and at the end of the month you have an extra $100 left (after your minimum payments are made).Most likely, you end up sending $20 extra to each debt, thinking you're doing great because you're now paying more on each debt.However, that is the WRONG strategy to use in this case. Actually, if you have an extra $100 left over after making all of your minimum payments, you should choose the debt that is the lowest amount and put the full $100 towards that debt alone.NOTE: THESE ARE IDEAS #63 TO #79, READ THEM CAREFULLY.

There are a few tricks retailers use that play on your unconscious to relax you, or change your in-store behavior.Think about babies for a moment. Are you relaxed now? Some stores add baby powder scent to their air conditioning to make people think about newborns. This is supposed to relax them. What do you call a relaxed shopper? A buyer.Retailers often use other canned smells to make you a more active shopper. Some supermarkets pump the smell of baking bread into their air conditioning all day long. This gives the impression that they are always baking something.Men present a unique problem to retailers.

You will profit by using some ideas compiled in the list below. Beyond the obvious considerations of location, size, present condition and design of your home, buyers look for special qualities that appeal to their emotions. It is your job to prepare the groundwork, to "set the stage" for a buyer to fall in love with your home. Think of what has made your home so special to you and try to highlight these features.

The monotonous tunnel effect will be immediately eliminated! Selling your home, though rarely a "fun" experience, can be a painless and profitable one if both you and your agent put in the effort.

Put pets out and send children to play at the neighbours (if possible). 70. Keep out of sight when your home is being shown- buyers feel uncomfortable when you're around. The benefit is they can more easily imagine the house as their own when you're not around. 71. Never volunteer information (you won't be there if you follow the previous tip). Resist the urge to tell them how great it is to have a bus stop out front for your children, as you may learn later that the prospective buyers have no children, work the evening shift and love to sleep in late in the morning. 72. Don't be compelled to apologize for what you may see as one of your home's weaknesses, you may be moving because of the traffic noise of that newly built highway, yet the buyer may be moving in your area because of the very proximity of the highway for quick commuting. Let the salesperson do the job of selling. OTHER IDEAS AND CONSIDERATIONS 73. Draw up a floor plan if you don't have one- it's a visual selling tool and they'll remember your home much better after they leave. 74. Some purchasers want to know what your heating, electricity, water and sewer costs are per month and also sometimes want to see warranties on appliances. Have this information available if asked. 75. Tell everyone you meet that your home is for sale- why keep it a secret, word of mouth is a strong selling aid. 76. Remain optimistic, it's easy to get discouraged after your home has been shown ten or twelve times, but you've done everything to make your home more salable, so don't take it personally. Keep in touch with me, I'll be continually updating you as to market activity. Remember someone is going to walk through your front door and fall head over heels in love with your home. After all, you did. 77. Don't be afraid to accept your first offer. If you've priced your home right, we may get an offer in the first week that is very close to the asking price. Don't panic and think your home is under priced, it means that the prospective buyers appreciate your home and want it badly. 78. Don't forget that every buyer wants to feel that he has got a "deal"- that is one reason you built bargaining leeway into your price in the first place. 79. Don't be afraid to call me any time with what may seem to be the smallest of questions. That's what I'm here for, to service you and get your home sold in the quickest time, with the least amount of inconvenience, and at the best price and terms for you. If you follow most of the items in this list you will be sure to receive thousands of dollars more when you sell your home.
