He’s BIG! He MOVES! He ROARS! He MUNCHES! Folks, if you’re buying one of these creatures for your kids this holiday season, please think about what you’ll do with it if you’re going to be selling your home in 2009.<\/p>\n

Just imagine, a prospective buyer and their real estate agent walk into your perfectly staged home. They love the colors you’ve chosen, think the bathroom and kitchen upgrades are lovely. But wait a second. What’s that in the family room or the kid’s room? A BABY DINOSAUR! The buyer and their agent will be out of your house so fast… Who’s ever seen a baby dinosaur without its Mom? You know there’s a full size Triceratops wandering around that house somewhere and the buyer and agent aren’t going to stick around to find out where… Haven’t you ever seen Jurassic Park<\/a>?<\/p>\n

So, if you really do need to buy a Kota the Triceratops and you want to sell your home in 2009, please be sure it’s properly crated for showings. We wouldn’t want any buyers or agents getting munched. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
