2015: El Niño Predicted…So What?
By Paul Buse, President of Big I Advantage
Predictions for 2015 are for an El Niño year. That is, for the United States, El Niño conditions are when warm waters accumulate on the western shores of the Americas. "So what" you say? For me looking at the data, I've always ended up feeling (however, unscientific) that AFTER El Niño, there can be big hurricane years in U.S. Below is an updated Two For Tuesday graph from last year with the big hurricane years highlighted with red columns and Hurricane names of infamy shown on horizontal axis. You decide. Oh, I didn't have time to extend graph to it but 1986 and 1987 were El Niño years which were prior to Hugo.

If you want to sell a home faster any good agent will insist on staging, either by the owner or a professional company. Good staging will involve making a home a place in which the buyer sees themselves living, not the seller. A well-staged home will show the home's potential for even awkward spaces and, if the seller does it themselves, for not a lot of money.
