Change is one of the few constants in life. And, as the seasons change, so too can our living situations. Whether it’s welcoming a new addition to the family, downsizing, or simply seeking a change of scenery, autumn often brings about thoughts of our homes and where we want to be.
If you’re thinking about making a change that includes buying or selling a home, please feel free to call or email me. I’m happy to offer my expertise and guidance for any of your real estate needs.
In the meantime, here are a few tips to help you stay warm this fall.
• Consider weather-stripping windows and doors to keep drafts at bay.
• Clean out your gutters to prevent ice dams.
• Install a smart thermostat to manage your home’s temperature efficiently.
• Have your furnace checked, and stock up on firewood for cooler nights by the fireplace or outdoor firepit.
Have a wonderful and fulfilling autumn season. I hope to see all of you around town!
