Horoscope
ARIES (March 21 to April
19) A hectic period begins to wind
down. Take time to draw some
deep breaths and relax before get-
ting into your next project.
TAURUS (April 20 to May
20) You’re eager to move forward
with a new challenge that sudden-
ly dropped in your lap.
GEMINI (May 21 to June
20) You’re almost ready to make
a commitment. A lingering doubt
or two, however, should be
resolved before you move ahead.
CANCER (June 21 to July
22) Caution is still the watchword
as you move closer toward a deci-
sion about a new situation.
LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Your new goal looks promising,
and your golden touch does much
to enhance its prospects for suc-
cess.
VIRGO (August 23 to
September 22) That impatient
side of yours is looking to goad
you into moving before you’re
ready to take that big step. Stay
calm and cool.
LIBRA (September 23 to
October 22) A legal matter you
hoped could finally be settled
could be a pesky problem for a
while, until all the parties agree to
stop disagreeing with each other.
SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) Partnerships —
personal or professional — which
began before the new year take on
new importance.
SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) Your associ-
ates are firmly on your side, and
that persistent problem that has
caused you to delay some activi-
ties should soon be resolved.
CAPRICORN (December
22 to January 19) Favorable
changes continue to dominate,
and you should be responding
positively as they emerge.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) A friend wants to
share a secret that could answer
some questions you’ve wondered
about for a long time.
PISCES (February 19 to
March 20) Stay on your new
course despite so-called well-
meaning efforts to discourage you
from your path.

for you. Both are important.
I have seen a trend over the
past several years of sellers having
a pretty good idea of what to do to
their homes to get them “sale
ready,” based on what they have
seen on TV. But our metro area is
different, and your specific neigh-
borhood is different, too.
For example, why replace all
the flooring with new carpet and
tile, and not do anything with your
kitchens and baths that are severe-
ly outdated with green counters
and dark brown cabinets?
Modernized kitchen and bath
remodels are almost always a
solid investment.
With this kind of example in
mind, be sure to find a real estate
agent that has worked not only
with sellers, but lots of buyers,
too. They know firsthand what
today’s buyers are applauding or
griping about.
Buyers look at your home and
try to envision it as their new
home. It is your job, as a seller, to
help them do this.

Tackle Your Remodel Project Now with Yourson
By Robin Martinez©
Jane Hotchkiss is one happy
lady. She recently won an “Ugly
Bath” contest. While most people
would be less than thrilled to win
such a designation, the prize — a
completely restored bathroom —
made the title easier for Jane to
bear.
The restoration, completed by
Yourson, Albuquerque’s leading

wall, unsealed grout, failing tiles
and unsightly fixtures and shower

comfortable and safe for every-
day use, and has added value to
the Hotchkiss home.
