We had trouble selling a "white elephant" once.
So we asked st. joseph for help and we sold within a month.
We are now asking for help getting a reverse mortgage.
Wish us the "best deal".

Should you bury a statue of St. Joseph to help sell your
house?
St. Joseph has dominated as the Divine Real Estate Mover for several
years.
The United States Catholic Information Center in Washington, D.C.,
traces the tradition of burying St. Joseph back hundreds of years to St.
Theresa of Avila (1515-1582), who prayed to St. Joseph (the patron saint
of the family and household needs) for more land for Christian converts
and encouraged her Discalced Carmelite nuns to bury St. Joseph medals in
the ground as a symbol of their devotion.
Today, folks bury statues of St. Joseph instead of medals . He can be
buried in the front yard, upside down, facing away from the house or in
the back yard, right side up, facing the house.
. Everyone agrees you need to give him a place of honor at your new
home.
to participate;
1. Get a statue of St. Joseph.
2. Bury him on your property see above;
3. Ask him to help you sell your home.
4. Thank him after your home sells.
But 2 million St. Joseph statues are sold nationally each year with
enough testimonials from satistified home sellers to make believers out
of many. I'll confess that as I write this, I'm staring out my window at
the lovely new statue of St. Joseph and his family we placed in our back
yard. When I buried him at our old home (which I sold myself), we had
our buyer within a week.
