Halloween will undoubtedly look a little different this year. There will be fewer parties, and less people attending those that are held. But one thing is certain: the kids will be out in force on Halloween night, gathering goodies as they trick-or-treat house to house. Keep those princesses and superheroes safe with a few simple rules, updated for 2020.

Buyers during the fall season are highly motivated to find a home quickly. Most would prefer to be settled in before the busy holiday season arrives.
