Okay...how do I relate this to real estate? Hmmm...

I know! How hard is it to be excited about showing your house if you've got a miserable summer cold? For that matter, how energized can you feel about looking at houses if you ache all over and your eyes are watering?

With me so far?

Well, my son-in-law, who is a pharmacist, has just co-written a book called "Conquering the Cough & Cold Aisle". (See, I just knew I could tie them together!) Anyway, the book is a guide to understanding which over-the-counter medications lessen the symptoms to the common cold and other common issues. There are easy-to-use charts that group medications by their symptoms.

Obviously, I think it's a terrific book, and worth every penny (click to order!) of its $14.99 price tag. As the tag line on the back of the book says, "With this handy guide, you can conquer the cough and cold aisle before it conquers you!"

Then you can get back your enthusiasm for buying or selling a home!
