Perfect Timing - Furnaces and Chimneys

If you haven't already done so, now is the time to contact your Heating Company and get your furnace serviced. This would include your wood stove, pellet stove and even your gas stove. They all should be cleaned and in working condition. Don't forget the Chimney Sweeps as your chimney should be checked too for cracks or potential current or future problems.

It is always better to take care of your home's heating sources BEFORE you need them. Waiting until you have a problem is usually when it is below zero and you have no heat. Now it is warm, so if the furnace can't be run for a few days, no big deal ... right?

How do you keep your lawns green, plush and looking like a carpet?

The last time that you mow it, mow it low and buy some grass seed. Spread the grass seed (a little thicker than the instructions state). Do this right after you mow so you know that there won't be any leaves on it. This way, when the snow comes, your lawn will be sitting waiting to grow the seeds.

In the spring, the seeds will begin to grow way before you are ready. Feel free to rake your lawn in the Spring and seed it again before you mow (a few weeks or more).

After a few years, you will have a plush, green, beautiful lawn and everyone will be wishing they had a lawn as beautiful as you! Way to Go!!!

Stop your water pipes from knocking

Do your water pipes knock when you turn off faucets? The problem could be not enough air in the water lines. Here is a simple, three step remedy:

1.Shut off the main valve in your home.
2.Flush all toilets and turn on every faucet. Let all the water drain out and turn off the faucets.
3.Slowly turn on the main valve. Some sediment will get loosened, so unscrew the screens from the faucets and clean them out. Do not be surprised when the water spits and sputters a bit when you turn the faucets back on. That's it. With new air in the compression chambers, knocking will be a thing of the past.

Why Use a REALTORŪ

Smart home sellers realize they need the expertise of a REALTORŪ in the sales process. And only REALTORSŪ, who are members of the National Association of REALTORSŪ , follow a time-tested Code of Ethics, where other real estate licensees may not.

First Impressions

If you are considering selling your home, one thing to keep in mind is that you have only one chance to make a good first impression--beginning the moment potential buyers drive up.

You can help create that good first impression by presenting potential buyers with a well-cared-for yard including a mowed lawn, clean driveways and walk paths (yes, shovel your snow!). Your front door and porch should be clean and neat, preferably freshly painted.

These first important encounters create a positive impression that carries through to the rest of your home. An inviting atmosphere implies that your house has been well maintained and taken care of. Homes that convey pride of ownership frequently receive the best offers.

If your home appears disheveled or uncared for, prospective buyers may quickly conclude it's been neglected and is in need of repairs. Such a negative impression can result in a less-than-generous offer--or possibly no offer at all.

Try viewing your home through a potential buyer's eyes. Would YOU buy your home?

Contact one of our agents today and we will go over some other tips to help your home sell faster and for top dollar.

Helpful Hints....

Painting the inside of your home may be easy enough to do yourself, but here are some tips from the professionals:

When choosing a roller for your paint job, take into consideration the type of paint that you will be using - oil base or water base.

If you are rolling with a water-based paint, you want to use a synthetic roller.

If you are rolling on an oil base, you'll want to use a natural roller, such as lamb's wool or natural fiber.

Be aware that rollers with loose fibers could ruin your paint finish.

If you can pluck the bristels out, then you know many of those bristles will end up on the wall.
