4 Family Yard Fall To-Dos

September 8th, 2017 by tisner

TurfMutt, the official spokes dog for the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute, knows that fall is the time to get the family yard prepped for spring. He encourages homeowners to do these four tasks this fall so they can have a fabulous family yard next spring. Homeowners who plan to put their home on the market in the spring will find these fall actions will spruce up their yard for spring.

Mulch your leaves — instead of raking and bagging them is good for the family yard and the environment. As leaves decompose, they feed your lawn.

Keep cutting your grass until the first frost— mowing at about 2-3” keeps your family lawn healthy when it turns cold.

Aerate in the fall — this ensures water, oxygen and nutrients can get to the grass roots in your family yard.

Install smart controllers on irrigation systems to help conserve water – your family yard needs about an inch of water per week, even during the fall.

We hope you will consider sharing the infographic “Family Yard Fall To-Dos” with your readers and followers.

Your Home’s Equity Could Be the Answer

September 1st, 2017 by tisner

A home equity line of credit, HELOC, is a mortgage loan made to homeowners to be used on an as-needed basis. A lender, such as a bank, will approve a borrower for a specified amount based on the equity in their home and all the necessary paperwork is signed to authorize the loan.

The specifics of the repayment will depend on the HELOC lender. It may require interest only or it may require amortized payments of principal and interest.The line of credit amount is available to the borrower and no interest is due until some or all the money is used. When the money is paid back, the line of credit is again available in full to the borrower.

The proceeds from a HELOC can be used to make improvements on the home or anything else such as medical expenses, college tuition or unexpected expenses or other liquidity issues.

Unlike personal credit card interest, the interest on a HELOC may be tax deductible. Your tax advisor will be able to let you know about your situation.

Rates and fees can vary widely on HELOC loans. Borrowers should shop around, compare and get recommendations before deciding on a lender.

Tips for Working through the Moving Blues

August 28th, 2017 by tisner

Moving into a new home can be a very exciting time in the lives of all of those involved.  Moving can also however be a time of sadness and or a feeling of displacement.   Both feelings of sadness and happiness are quite normal when it comes to moving.  Most folks likely don’t ever think they will feel sad when they move into a new home and are many times quite surprised by the feeling when it creeps up on them.  There are a few ideas listed below for you to help you make it through your feelings of sadness and blues during your next move.

  1. Be sure to plan some road trips back home before you move away from your loved ones.  Planning ahead to spend quality time with those whom you are moving away from can give you the sense of comfort  that you might not otherwise have.
  2. Many times when you move into a new home you think it is going to be so much better than your old house, especially if it is bigger and brand new. However, many times when you move from a small old cozy house into a large new house it can seem cold and sad.  Be sure to decorate your new home as quickly as possible once you move in.  Use your old decorations mixed with some new ones to keep those feelings of sadness at bay.
  3. If you have just moved to a new area and you want to feel connected to those who live around you, do your best to get out and make friends with your neighbors as soon as you can. Perhaps they can show you the local hot spots so that you can connect with even more people.  The more connected you become the less likely you will suffer from the moving blues.
  4. If you moved for your job, do your best to make friends with your new co-workers and let them know how you are feeling. You may find a few friends that are going through a similar situation as your own that you can connect with.
  5. If you have left family and friends behind, take advantage of your smart phone and or computer and video chat on a regular basis so that you stay connected.

These are just a few ideas on how to keep the blues away  when moving.  Keep in mind that sadness can hit you whether you are moving far away or just the next town over.  Change is hard, but these tips should help to make your transition a bit easier.

Items to Throw Out Before You Move

August 2nd, 2017 by tisner

Although moving from an old house into a new house can be an exciting time it can also be a very stressful time for those folks who don’t like to throw anything out.  Don’t worry you can keep most of your items but there are a few that should most definitely be thrown out before you move and those are listed for you below.

  1.  If you have a lot of old towels and rags lying around your house, whether you use them or not, you might want to get rid of those before you move  into another home.  These types of things can carry bacteria on them and you don’t want to start out in your new place with dirty items when you can purchase new ones once you arrive.
  2. Make-up is good to have but it does have a shelf life and once that has passed it isn’t really good to keep it around.  Avoid the compulsion to throw all of your old makeup into a box and take it with you.  Although you might perhaps use it once or twice there really is no need for it because it won’t look as nice as a new pallet of makeup.
  3. Soaps, deodorants, nail polish,  and sunscreen maybe things you use on a regular basis but you really don’t need to take up space in your moving boxes for these types of items.  These things don’t cost a lot of money and can easily be purchased anywhere.
  4. Once you start packing and you find a ton of USB cables, realize that you don’t need them all and get rid of a few of them.   You may have a friend in need of a USB cable that you can bless with one or two.
  5. Don’t pack paperwork unless it is absolutely necessary.  Of course you will have to keep important contracts and tax information but most of the paperwork you’ve collected over the years is likely now obsolete and can be thrown out before you head out.
  6. Last but not least, go ahead and let go of all of the clothes you can no longer fit into.  Donating these types of items can many times be a big blessing to others.

These are just a few ideas of things you might want to get rid of before you move.  By doing this you will avoid having to unpack all sorts of unnecessary items and will save yourself a ton of time in the process.
