Yep. People move into a new house and more often than not they do all
the remodelling either before moving in or shortly after. They change
the carpeting, paint the walls, hang new wall paper, change the curtains
and lights. Painting and cleaning up may help sell teh house faster but
it doesn't get you any extra money.
