[Monthly Maintenance]
August Maintenance Guide Print out this handy guide and keep up with monthly chores.
A
ugust is the perfect month to enjoy the remaining days of summer before the hustle and bustle of September begins. With few items on the calendar, it’s a great month to accomplish tasks outside the home and hire professionals to do work that you aren’t able to do yourself. August is also a great month to schedule maintenance appointments with your professionals (even while you’re on vacation). It’s easy to find your pro on Porch and schedule carpet cleaning, house cleaning, furnace maintenance and other indoor tasks. For avid gardeners, August is a busy, and bountiful, month. Weeding, harvesting, pest control and watering are all important tasks this month. There is also prep work to get ready for fall garden beds. Maintaining the compost pile, setting up a worm bin and continuing regular pest control can help ensure your fall garden is ready for planting.
Weekend project ideas and maintenance tasks Divide
iris bulbs Lay mulch Pull weeds Prune trees and shrubs Start a worm bin and continue composting Harvest fallen fruit and ripe vegetables Examine exterior siding and repair as necessary
4
Organize closets and donate used items Check grout and sealants in bathroom
Pros to schedule Hire
a carpet cleaner
Schedule a chimney sweep professional before fall usage
Tip of the month: Pool safety Swimming is a popular activity for everyone in the family but can also be a real danger. Nearly 3,300 persons die from unintentional drownings each year and children (aged 14) continue to have the highest drowning rates. Make sure your pool is a fun, and safe, place to play by following these tips: Put lifejackets on children or weak swimmers and consider swim lessons to reduce drowning rates Invest in a pool cover to serve as a barrier Install a 4-sided fence with latches Clear the pool of toys so children aren’t tempted to enter the pool
unsupervised Don’t dive in shallow water
Project of the month: Create a command center August might feel slow and carefree, but September is right around the corner and you’ll want to be organized before the calendar turns over. This is a great month to DIY or craft your own HQ, or command center, to track the calendars, chores, cell phones and other important “landing pad” items. This command center will most likely be visible to your guests as well so take the time to style it. Consolidate: Establish what you need to display and group like items. Consolidate as much as possible to save room. Contain: Purchase or repurpose organizers (like baskets, cork boards or peg boards) that help display items the right way for your family. Customize: Try washi tape, spray paint, fabric scraps or stencils to add the color and style you want for your command center.

[Buyers 101]
First-time Home Buyer? Don't Make These Mistakes Expert financial guru Nicole Lapin shares her tips for home buyers. As the author of Rich Bitch, financial guru Nicole Lapin gives solid financial advice in a straightforward, “plain English” manner. Her deeprooted experience in the financial world has made her an expert in dishing financial advice. And her passion for helping others achieve their goals makes her a trusted advisor and TV personality. She knows that many of us didn’t grow up learning about how to save money, invest our savings or financially plan for the future – something that she’d like to change. Her website (www.nicolelapin.com) is chock full of financial advice from negotiating medical bills to “cleaning” up your accounts, from investing in your wardrobe to giving back to those in need. We recently asked Nicole to give us her expert tips for buying a home. Whether you are considering buying a home for the first time or thinking about moving, you’ll want to lean in and listen to her advice. W hat are some basic factors prospective homebuyers should look at when when consider ing buy ing a home? Personal Personal finances? Job secur ity? Here are the three things you need to say “yes” to before even considering buying a home: 1. You are going to live in it for a while. Are you really, in full faith, going to stay in a home for an extended period of time? Let’s say five years. Things change…people move, get fired, promoted, married, etc. Yeah, life happens unexpectedly, but if you know or have a strong hunch you’re going to need to move soon for whatever reason, you should not buy. Period. Here’s why: a house isn’t just a home, it’s an asset, and it’s an illiquid one, which means it’s hard to “melt” into cash when you need it. And if you need to move, you’re going to be thirsty for money, but that home is going to take time to sell. 2.You can afford it. Ask yourself: can you afford it? I mean, really afford it? Almost everyone needs a mortgage to be able to buy a home, especially first-time buyers. Typically you need about 20% of the total cost of the house in cash for a down payment, although in some cases you might be able to put down less in exchange for a larger mortgage loan. Do you have that? You can sometimes take out a second loan to cover the down payment, but that just means you actually don’t own any of the house, at least in the beginning, and your monthly payments will be a lot higher. 3. You have a steady job that you
love. Do you love your job and want to keep it for a long time? If you’re unhappy about your job and looking into new opportunities, you can forget about buying. Job uncertainty makes for terrible timing to make an investment this enormous. You should also leave the door open (pun intended) for any opportunity that might come up…which, should you take the job,
might demand moving. If you answered yes to EVERY single question and will live in your home for a few years, then you’re looking like a good candidate for buying. W hat is the number one mistake mistake people make financiall y when purchasing a home for the first time? Taking on more house than they can afford! Don’t let your bank tempt you to borrow more than you can afford. Just because your bank approves you for a mortgage of a certain amount doesn’t mean you have to take it; in fact, in many cases you should opt for taking considerably less. If someone wants wants to buy a house in 6 months, months, a year year,, five five years years,, what are some sugg sugg estions you you hav have to help ensure they they finan cially cially plan accordingly? accordingly? Before you even consider buying a house, you want to make sure you have at least 3-6 month’s worth of expenses squirreled away in the bank, for your emergency fund. You also want to have already put a sizable dent in outstanding debt, if not cleared it completely. Before tackling anything else—including buying a home—you have to get the debt monkey off your back. Start with the highest interest rate debt you have first, which is usually your credit card. Schedule your debt payments to automatically come out of your paycheck each month so you don’t even have a chance to spend that money on something else. It doesn’t hurt as much if you never see that money in the first place. Give yourself a realistic timetable to pay it off, but don’t set comfy deadlines. Paying debt off isn’t

a comfy thing, but you have to do it before you can take on additional debt: your mortgage! Don’t forget: the longer you drag it out, the more money you’ll be shelling out for interest. How How much is a typical down down payment? payment? Typically you need about 20% of the total cost of the house in cash for a down payment, although in some cases you might be able to put down less in exchange for a larger mortgage loan. You can sometimes take out a second loan to cover the down payment, but that just means you actually don’t own any of the house, at least in the beginning, and your monthly payments will be a lot higher. (As you can probably tell, I don’t love this option.) W hat ad ditional expenses other than a down down payment payment should first time homeowners homeowners anticipate? You’re on the hook for closing costs like lawyer’s fees, home inspection fees, realty transfer fees, and title insurance. You’ll need to set aside approximately 3% of the purchase price (as much as $10,000 on a $350,000 house) in closing costs on top of the down payment. If you you could give give prospective prospective first time homeowners homeowners any any addi addi tional ad vice , what would it be? If you haven’t already noticed, owning a home is almost universally considered a good thing.You’ll hear it touted by your favorite spewers of conventional financial wisdom. After all, it’s the American dream! Or so they say. But here’s the thing about buying a home: when it’s good, it can be a great thing. It also might not be right for you at this particular time in your life. Renting might be a better option, and that’s okay. So don’t get sucked into buying a home because you feel like that’s what adults do. Think for yourself and make your own home; whether you own it or not.

What's T hat S mell?! What to do When Your Home Stinks
Getting to the bottom of a bad stink is important as it may indicate a larger problem inside the home. Smells are a funny thing. A particular smell or scent is so closely tied to our memory bank, and can instantly conjure up memories and images. We all strive to have a nice-smelling home, especially when we’re placing our home on the market or hosting a party. The problem with smells is that a person can actually become “blind” to a scent, unable to actually smell their home the way other people do. If you are concerned that your home has a certain odor, consider following these tips.
Smells: the worst offenders
You can probably guess the most offensive smells in the home: cigarette or cigar smoke, pet urine or general pet odors, mold and mildew, unappetizing foods, and bacterial types of smells like body odor. Unfortunately, many of the smells can permeate every corner of the home like the carpeting, drapery and furniture, making it difficult and laborious to remove. Getting rid of these strong odors is important, as they could indicate unhealthy or toxic things in the home. Mold and mildew smells, for example, not only indicate a potential water problem in the home, the spores can lead to a toxic environment for people and pets inside the home (read more about this here). Smoke from an accidental fire is another terrible and pervasive smell and can be difficult to remove. Usually homeowners contact a professional rebuilding and restoration services company – this is not only to rebuild and fix damaged areas but also to replace smoke-filled components within the home.
Masking the smell can make it worse
Often we reach for the air freshener or scented candle to mask strong odors and smells in our home. While this can work for small odors (like chopped onions or stinky shoes) or for short periods of time, it’s nearly impossible to completely mask large odors. Keep in mind that some room sprays and air fresheners contain toxic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that are hazardous to your health. You can make your own air freshers quite easily with non-toxic ingredients (try these here) but remember that really strong and foul home odors will come back after your air freshener fades.
How to get rid of the smells
When you’ve found the source of your worst smells you’ll need to remove them with deep cleaning or removal. It’s usually easiest to focus on one room at a time, as well as one feature at a time (like carpeting). This will make your cleaning time more efficient and thorough. Unfortunately, most of the worst odors will probably permeate the whole home as air ducts and heating systems can spread the scent into every room. Here are some common smell “traps” and how to tackle them. Carpeting and area rugs: Hiring a professional carpet cleaning service is usually more effective than a do-it-yourself steam cleaning. This is because the industrial machines can heat up the water much higher and suck up more water. The pros might also have more experience with your particular stains and smells and can give expert advice as to what their machine will remove or not remove. Serious pet urine, for example, may have been soaking into the carpet pad and sub-flooring – this smell source will be impossible to remove in the carpet layer. It may be necessary for you to replace particular sections of your carpeting to ensure a clean underlayment. Area rugs can generally be cleaned as well, either at home or at an off-site cleaning facility. Upholstery and furniture: Cigarette smoke and food smells easily cling to fabric and textiles. Drapery can be sent to the dry cleaners or look for a company that can remove drapery, clean it, and hang it up again. Many carpet cleaning companies will also clean upholstery like dining chairs and sofas. Like your carpeting, you’ll want to assess how deep the smell is: is it in the top layer of the upholstery or within the cushion? Mattresses can also harbor bad smells. Consider replacing it and make sure you purchase good quality mattress pads and protectors. Closets and drawers: Wood and plastic furniture, as well as closets, can generally be cleaned and disinfected but first you’ll want to empty the contents. Sort through your closets and drawers, remove the objects that might be causing bad smells and clean them separately. Even if the source of the smell was from one object, it may have affect
10
ed your other items. Once the closet or drawers is empty, start at the top and clean down to the bottom. While cleaning, inspect this storage area for water damage, mold, mildew or any other potential sources of the smell. You may need to make repairs, repaint or replace to ensure you’re starting with a clean slate. Cedar planks can be added to closets and drawers – they inherently smell amazing, absorb moisture, and can protect your valuables. To remove “musty” or mothball smells from wood storage pieces, you can place a bowl of baking soda inside each drawer, which will absorb smells. A bowl of vinegar will also work. You can often do a light cleaning using a mixture of diluted vinegar and water (I like to add several drops of lemon essential oil as well) to gently wipe down interior surfaces. Just be sure to test out an area first as water may damage your wood surfaces. Basements and attics: Entire rooms like the basement or attic should be treated like other rooms in the home. If either of these rooms have become major storage areas this might take you awhile to empty them out and find the source of the smell. The reason these two places are extra important is that bad smells could be an indication of a more serious problem like a leaking roof, leaking foundation, leaking plumbing or a pest infestation. Not only can these issues ruin your belongings, they can ruin the structural integrity of your home. Appliances, sinks, toilets: Appliances and fixtures can quickly turn smelly if not properly maintained or regularly cleaned. Fortunately, most of these can be cleaned pretty easily and the smell will dissipate. Kitchen sinks with in-sink garbage disposals can give off foul food smells. You can eliminate food odors by sprinkling baking soda down the drain and flushing it with water. A few small lemon or orange peels thrown in the disposal can also give a fresh scent. Be sure you always run the water when using the garbage disposal and don’t use your disposal as a garbage can. Appliances that use a lot of water, like dishwashers and washing machines, can have odors due to mold or food. Baking soda can also be sprinkled in both, just use a little at a time. After using these machines try wiping them clean with an allpurpose spray or plain vinegar. Toilets can become smelly for obvious reasons. Regular cleaning will help immensely, so will using your toilet properly and keeping it maintained. To read more cleaning tips, click here. Garbage cans: The best way to keep the smell of garbage from filling up your home is to use a garbage can liner and empty it regularly. When you remove the smelly items, the smell usually goes away. If garbage has leaked inside the can you’ll want to clean it out thoroughly (it’s easiest if you take the cans outside and wash with soap and water). Compost bins inside the home can also smell so be sure to empty them on a regular basis and keep them clean as well.
When you can’t find the source of the smell
Some smells are obvious, some are not. It might be due to nose “blindness” or possibly just an odd combination of too many smells that make it difficult to determine. You might actually want a person living outside of your home help you out with this. They may be able to pick up on where the smell is coming from easier than you can. But if that’s not an option, you can actually hire professional cleaning services that provide deep cleaning services. They will probably recommend cleaning the basics like kitchens and bathrooms and carpeting, but might also recommend air duct cleaning or cleaning behind and underneath appliances. A dead pest can also be difficult to track down as they sometimes perish between walls or underneath the house. A pest control professional will be able to make an expert assessment and help figure out next steps. Always get an in-home consultation from a professional who will walk through the entire home and give recommendations for service as well as an accurate estimate.

3 Perfect Colors for People Who Are Afraid to Paint Afraid of picking the wrong shade? You’re not alone. Here are a few suggestions for can’t-mess-up color. If you’re passionate about design, it’s easy to forget how the “average person” approaches the décor of their home. To get an idea, simply take a walk around any neighborhood and you’ll notice two things: A weird lack of curtains, and a near-allergy to wall color beyond white or beige.
Soft Aqua It’s sunny and cheerful—but a little can go a long way. See how your eye is drawn to this bench, even though there’s a big white wall there? This color is perfect for re-painting a vintage find, a front door, or as an accent. I also like to picture this in the kitchen of a vintage bungalow. Rich Gray
Until we moved in together, my fiancé was one of those people who never, ever painted. “Why bother? The walls are already painted,” he said, referring to the Apartment White walls of our tiny apartment.
Becoming a Color Convert A month later, I surprised him with a can of medium-aqua paint that brought to mind a mid-century hotel in Miami. He was skeptical—but within a few hours, the apartment looked bigger, happier, and more like a home than the temporary residence that it had been. It worked perfectly with my Lucite bar cart and his collection of vintage comic book art. After that, my boyfriend was a color convert. I can understand the general reluctance to paint. After a decade of writing about décor, I’ve heard all of the complaints. Color is a pain to pick out, since there are roughly thousands of shades and swatches to choose from in the paint aisle. No one looks forward to the project. If you live with anyone else, you have to account for their personal preferences. Even kids have an opinion on the subject. Yet, paint truly is the easiest (and cheapest) way to make a room look entirely different. If you’re currently vacillating between beige and beigeer, take a moment to consider any of these easy, low-commitment, beautiful shades. They’re not only part of Valspar’s 2015 top color trends (selected by celebrity designer Genevieve Gorder), they are also universally flattering.
The Paint: Pictured here (on walls, floors, and ceiling), Valspar’s “Aqua Glow” and “Belle Grove Sorbet”
Perfect for: Dining areas, living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms. I know what you’re thinking: That is A LOT of blue in a space. But it’s actually a very soft blue that would feel muted if kept to any one element in the room – the walls, or the floors, or the ceiling. The shade brings to mind a lighter version of the classic Tiffany box, and makes any room appear bigger and brighter. It complements dark, light, and even metallic furnishings. Note: Since the color can appear to amplify sunlight, light aqua isn’t an ideal hue for bedrooms (unless you’re a morning person). Light Peach
The Paint: Pictured here (on walls), Valspar’s “Cinder Fox”
Perfect for: Living rooms, bedrooms and dining rooms No, it’s not “gloomy”. Gray has the fantastic ability to make every single color around it look even better. Check out the way it brings out the cool blue of the piano and chair, or the dazzling gold candlesticks. Gray also gives your eye a rest, making it ideal for bedrooms. If you’re scared of color, you probably won’t want to commit to painting a whole room. That’s okay! You can always start by turning a single wall into an accent wall. A good place to start is the wall behind your sofa. If you can live with the color, paint the rest of the room. If not, it’s easy to paint over. Happy painting, and enjoy your new wall color this spring! Written by Brie Dyas Reprinted with permission from Porch.com
The Paint: Pictured here (on banquette), Valspar’s “Coral Gable”
Perfect for: Adding a pop of color Somewhere between yellow and orange exists this light peach hue.
