The first real estate agents were called “curbstoners,” and they were hustlers. When a house was for sale, they would rush over, put up a big sign, and sit on the curb in front of the house from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., ushering prospective buyers in for an “inspection.” The competition was fierce, and it sometimes got ugly. It also limited each agent to selling just one house at a time.

As the profession became more organized and agencies grew, they could take on more listings. Instead of having a 12-hour “inspection” period, the industry shifted to a two- or three-hour open house. The first record of an open house offering incentives was in 1952, when an agent in Dallas, Texas, offered free Coca-Cola to attendees and a Cadillac to whoever purchased the property.

Have you ever dreamt of starting your own backyard garden? Well now is as good a time to start as any! Check out the list below for some great tips and some things you will need as you start your first garden.

🧤 A pair of sturdy gardening gloves to prevent injury -- plus, you're going to get your hands dirty!
🌷 Plenty of seeds for whatever you'd like to grow -- read up on which plants need sunlight and which can go without, depending on the orientation of your home. You can also Google "seed starting calendar" to time your garden to seasonality.💦
✂️ Basic gardening tools: think: a garden hoe, scuffle hoe, dirt rake, leaf rake, garden shovel, and a good pair of pruning shears.
👟 Make sure you have a pair of gardening clogs -- or tennis shoes that you don't mind getting dirty!
💦 Be prepared to water your garden regularly! A rule of thumb for watering is that plants need around one inch of water per week during the growing season (so if it's a rainy season, you might not need water as much!).

Do you have a green thumb? What else should beginners know about starting a garden?
