One of Ireland’s most historic homes is for sale. Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day and ‘drown the shamrock’ at the Guinness Beer castle that has reigned over the rolling emerald hills of Ireland near Dublin since the 18th century. In recent history, the castle housed Guinness-beer heiress Oonagh, Lady Oranmore and Browne, one of the three “golden Guinness girls,” who entertained lavishly and whose guests have included the Rolling Stones, Anjelica Huston (who grew up next-door), Lucian Freud, and U2’s Bono.

Dublin’s most famous export, Guinness beer, first arrived in the United States on the shore of North Carolina in 1817 under the direction of Arthur Guinness II, first heir to the company. The dark ale, known as stout, became an instant hit as it spread its delicious exports around the world. Today, offering eleven distinct varieties, thousands of bottles will be consumed on St. Patrick’s Day, a one-day break from Lent, after sixteen days of building up a powerful thirst. Though to many Americans, St. Patrick’s Day has evolved into green beer and a drinking free-for-all, if you’re heading to Dublin to celebrate and take a tour of the Guinness castle, be forewarned that you’ll probably be doing it with other tourists in the Guinness’ Temple Bar neighborhood because when the parade is over most of the locals head home to a nice dinner and an evening of calm entertainment.

Let’s face it, we are all busy and we all typically look forward to relaxing after a hard day’s work once we arrive home!  Can I get an Amen?   Many times however, we come home to a house that can sometimes be less than relaxing.  Whether it is the kids running around fighting with one another or the animals leaving us messes to clean up, there are many reasons why our homes can often times be less than relaxing.  Below are listed a few tips to help make your home a more relaxing place regardless of what is going on around you.

1. Placing a big comfortable chair in a quiet nook in your home with perhaps a blanket thrown over it can do a lot towards adding a relaxing comfy feel.  Be sure to put this chair and blanket in an “out of the way” space such as a back bedroom so that you will be able to go there to escape the day.
2. Another idea for making your home a more relaxing place  is to add some fluffy white curtains to your patio or porch.  Add a few pieces of outdoor furniture and a table or two as well.  This will allow you an outdoor space in which you can retire to after a long hard day at work.  These spaces are great for when the weather is good.
3. Adding an upholstered headboard to your bed can make the entire room look more soft and serene. Also if you happen to have a television in your bedroom, take it out and put it somewhere else in the house.  Your bedroom should be your sanctuary at all times.
4. Another way to help make your home a more relaxing place is to add a speaker system throughout your house. This way you can play soft relaxing music and listen to it as you move from room to room.
5. Much in the way that music can be used to make your home a more relaxing place, diffusing essential oils into your home can go a long way as well! If you don’t have a diffuser you should definably order one today!

These tips to make your home a more relaxing place are a good place to start!  Once you do your part to make your home your sanctuary you will likely love the changes!

• DEPOSITS: There are very few acceptable opportunities for the deposit to be returned to the Buyer.

• Check the contract carefully to verify if there is a financing contingency. If there is one included pay close attention to the timeframe. Often, the time period is VERY SHORT.

• Just as in the traditional resale contract the new construction contract will require arbitration to resolve any issues that may arise.

• Builders NEVER guarantee a completion date. Prepare your Buyers to be ready to react quickly should the completion date be sooner than anticipated as well as be prepared for delays due to weather, materials, permits etc. Believe it or not, virtually every builder contract allows the builder TWO YEARS to complete the home.

• Most builders require the Buyer to close on the day the certificate of occupancy is obtained. The builder will make the borrower pay a fee PER DAY if they are not able to close when the builder is ready.

• Builders typically encourage the use of their preferred title company and lender(s). If their “preferred servicers” are selected then incentives and Buyer credits are often given at closing.

• In most contracts, the Buyer will be responsible for paying all closing costs.

• It is always a good idea for your Buyer to have an independent home inspector that is willing to check on the progress of the construction several times throughout the course of construction. It is imperative for the Buyer to notify the builder of any concerns immediately and keep a documented list of requested repairs or changes.

• Most builders provide a 10 year structural warranty and a 1 year limited warranty for building imperfections. A traditional home warranty (used for resale homes) are also available for years 2-5 to cover systems and appliances, but this coverage must be initiated at the time of closing.

• IMPORANT: No builder will EVER change one sentence, or Word, or even comma on their standard form contract. You can fill in blanks or change numbers and features, but that’s it.

• Remember the home does not have to be perfect to close. Prepare your buyers for this!!

Many houses these days tend to have very neutral colors in them.  One reason for this is because painting your house neutral can sometimes make it easier to sell.  If you plan to stay in your home for more than a few years, why not use a bit of color to brighten up your neutral home.  Below is a list of a few colors you might want to try and where you might want to think about using them!

1. You might think that magenta would be a bit bright to use as a wall color in your home, but you may want to give it a try!  You don’t have to paint the entire room this color, why not just paint one wall magenta and let the others be a neutral color.  This will help make your room a bit brighter than it otherwise might be as it adds a bit of pop and pizzazz.
2. Another color you may not have thought about adding to your neutral home is purple. A good place to use a deep purple color in your home to brighten it up a bit is a bathroom or hallway.  Deep purples can add a touch of class to an otherwise drab area of your home.
3. You can also use blue and shades of blue to help brighten things up a bit. A good place to use blue paint in your home would be the dining room, living room or den.  There are quite a few different shades of blue to choose from these days but don’t be afraid to choose a bright blue to make a room stand out.
4. Green is another color that can help to brighten up your neutral home. You can choose from shades of green all the way from forest green to lime green.  It may be a good idea to use a more calming forest green for an office space and maybe a lime green for your child’s room.  Greens are also good for sunrooms as they tend to help bring a feel of the outdoors inside.

These are just a few ways to use color to brighten up your neutral home.  Hopefully it has got you thinking of how you want to bring more color into your life  and what rooms you want to add the color to.
