At some point, every owner will decide that it is time to sell its station. Just as the owner of a house would not put the house on the market without engaging in a little fix-up and clean-up, the owner of a broadcast facility should not simply turn the station over to a broker without preparing the station for sale. While planting rose bushes in the front yard may help in the sale of a house, it is likely to be useless in attracting prospective broadcast station buyers.
