current housing landscape presents greater home values, low interest

competition among buyers we’ve ever seen.”
Bottom Line
If you’re thinking of selling, now may be the time. Demand for your
house will be strong during a period when there is very little
competition, ideally leading to a quick sale and a great return on your
investment.

Some shredders only cut up paper enough so that it’s left in strips or cross sections. These papers can still be put back together by someone with enough time. How do you know which is the most secure? Go to an office supply store and you’re likely to see a wall full of...
