@Silvia FunezThere are lots of different kinds of countertops including Quarts and man made stone.

When we got there with the representative we found the front door was a jar.

Thank you @Joe Villeneuve and @Jarred Sleeth.  

Next rung is wholesalers (so one extra hand in the cookie jar) and then MLS/realtors (2 extra hands - plus their "employers'" cut - in the cookie jar.If you want to find wholesalers, you either need to network in local events or find a facebook page dedicated to RE or sale of property...most wholesalers will place their properties there because it can be seen by the most eyes.

That's alot like having cookie crums around your mouth and telling grandma you didn't get in the cookie jar.

This is exactly what we needed to hear.As for the comparison to stocks, we meant that the daily real estate values change, obviously not enough to make a difference but monthly or quartely it makes sense.It was a lead gen platform idea based on my own wants as an investor to have real time data for neighborhoods that are on the decline or the rise.  

@Jarred Sleeth  Tax exchange while values are still good into a better neighborhood.  

Mother-of-Two has refused to use any of the rent money she deposited into the jar in the kitchen cupboard at.

You need this product: This is the answer, and a quart will be plenty for the cabinets.

quart of rustoleum paint, 3" brush and maybe some masking tape would be easiest and least expensive solution
