July 3 to August 15 are Air Conditioning Appreciation Days! How did we ever do without air conditioning? Invented in 1932, it has become a necessity of life for those who can afford it. Here are some ways you can stay cool, appreciate your air conditioner and give it a long shelf life: Turn your…
Have your heating/cooling systems serviced annually. Check the filters and clean or replace them as necessary.
Happy Memorial Day
Truthfully, I don’t know the algorithm Zillow uses when pulling estimates for homes but it’s been proven following this algorithm could either leave a lot of your financial equity on the table or it could have your home sit on the market unnecessary longer than needed.
During the days leading up to Memorial Day, members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars take donations for poppies. The poppy’s significance to Memorial Day is the result of the John McCrae poem “In Flanders Fields.” Disabled and needy veterans in VA hospitals have been assembling Buddy Poppies since 1924. Purchase one, and your donation assists in maintaining state and national rehabilitation and service programs for veterans.
“SOLD”, to me, means much more than just selling your home.
Our tagline here at Single Step Realty is that “Every great journey begins with a Single Step”. And we know that single step cannot begin to move until you have that moment when the thought crosses your mind that you are ready to sell the home you’ve been in for years. Or maybe you’ve thought…
Single Step Realty and Keller Williams would like to wish all of the mothers out in the world a very special Happy Mother’s Day!
START A VEGETABLE OR HERB GARDEN
Mother’s Day is a great time to get lots of veggies and herbs planted. The great thing is that this is a gift she’ll enjoy through the summer, with fresh ingredients just steps away from the kitchen.
COMPLETE THE CHORES SHE USUALLY DOES
Whether your mother is the one usually on dishwashing duty, mowing the lawn, taking out the trash or folding the laundry, tell her that doing any of that is strictly forbidden on her day.
SHARE YOUR TALENTS WITH MOM
If you have great style, help your mother put together some chic looks and accessorize them. Help her get her closet more organized while you’re at it.
TAKE THE TIME TO HELP HER WITH ALL OF HER I.T. NEEDS
Hook up that DVD player, help her get the DVR sorted out, find an app she’ll like and teach her how to use it.
Take it from me. Buying and selling a home is not easy! Having a Real Estate Professional on your team greatly increases your changes of achieving your real estate goals.
With Mother’s Day and Memorial Day coming up this month, there is plenty of incentive to get those outdoor spaces ready to entertain. Get your house and yard in good order now, and you’ll be ready to enjoy the summer days ahead.
Just a reminder to all of my friends and friends’ friends that probably haven’t caught the memo: Yes, I am a Real Estate Agent.
