Our house is on the market right now. Before we hightail it for work, we make sure the dishes are done, the flowers aren’t drooping and the fresh-baked cookies are out. It’s been about two months, and it hasn’t sold. Now I know why. Because the economy is tanking, and it’s a bad time to sell our house? No. Because our floors are a little warped upstairs? No. It’s because we haven’t had a home clearing.

Home clearers are helping real estate agents erase bad vibes from homes that aren’t budging, according to a recent Denver Post story and the James Randi Educational Foundation blog. Such real estate or space clearings are performed for all sorts of reasons Just one wouldn’t be a very good business model, would it?

Say you get divorced and want to get rid of the remaining dark energy, a real estate clearing might be the answer.
