The flier for 453 says:

“$30,000. PRICE REDUCTION!!! GREAT INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY ON THIS 4,088 SQ FT, 3-UNIT TOWN HOME SITTING ON A WONDERFUL CORNER LOT IN COLUMBIA HEIGHTS. TWO 2 BR UNITS AND ONE 1 BEDROOM ALL LOCATED WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE TO METRO, HOWARD, WASHINGTON & VA HOSPITALS. NEW PLUMBING AND MANY OTHER UPGRADES THROUGHOUT.”

The flier for 452 says:

“PRICE REDUCTION!!!!Terrific, espacious, beautifull END UNIT brick Townhouse. Five good size bedrooms, formal dining room, two car garage detached, nice fully finished basement with a private side entrance, full bath and living area. Bring your client and send an offer before you miss it. THIS IS NOT A SHORT SALE.”

I thought this would be a neat comparison since they are both corner units right across the street from one another. 452 is going for $525,000 and 453 is going for $469,900. Do either seem reasonable to you?

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
