FUN FACT: Get the name and numbers.
Just when you think you’ve checked all the boxes for an
easy sell of your house, take a second look at your address.
According to Zillow, street names and house numbers matter!
If you happen to live at 666 Fanny Hands Lane, you may be
out of luck (however that particular street is in the United
Kingdom, so you should be safe). Innuendo-laden street
names tend to not sell as quickly as those like Thunder Road.
American numerology says that 666 is bad luck and could
decrease the value of your home by 2-3 percent. Also, steer
clear of the number four, considered unlucky in Chinese
culture. Stick to the number eight, or include the lucky digits
316 in your asking price!
Before entering the real estate market, educate yourself. The more
you know, the better your chances are for nailing down the home of
your dreams! n
