![]() Planning a Successful RetirementOne very good way to keep you feeling more positive about life and mentally exercised is to invest in relationships with family and friends. Many people find that during their work years they have a hard time finding all the time they'd like to spend nurturing their relationships. ![]() The Importance of Staging an Older HomeFirst of all, staging involves de-cluttering both the inside and outside of your home. Many people living in older homes have been in residence for a long time. Every year that you live in a house makes for more stuff that you've brought in, adding to the clutter that you already had. One of the key ideas in home staging is that it helps a prospective buyer actually see what your house looks like because you've removed the clutter. ![]() Retirement Living: An Environment for Healthy AgingIn many of our neighbourhoods there are not readily available exercise facilities or social opportunities. This can make it difficult for retired people to maintain a previously healthy lifestyle. Keep in mind, a healthy lifestyle doesn't just include exercise, but also social connections and mental stimulation as well. All of these factors can be supported by a good retirement community. ![]() The Modern Reality of Prefabricated HomesThe obvious benefit of buying prefabricated is, of course, the speed in which you actually have a new home to live in. If you are buying a custom home, it will take about 12 weeks for delivery, but a previously built home takes only as long as delivery and set up! Building a home on-site can take much longer due to weather conditions, contractor scheduling, and availability of materials or workers. ![]() Renovate Your Mobile Home and Save EnergyMobile homes built before the mid-1970's are less airtight than newer homes. Generally, the leakage areas are distributed all throughout the unit, but in double-wide homes, the joint between the two halves can be a source of significant air leakage. In fact, if you combine all sources, there is an average 12 x 13 in. air gap. ![]() Vegetables That Like it Hot, Hot, Hot!In most parts of the country, gardeners are weeding and tending to their gardens because after all spring is for planting. Not so, in many parts of Arizona. Here, spring time is for harvesting and getting ready for fall planting. ![]() How 70s Airplane Technology Saves You Money in Heating BillsThe oil crisis of the mid-70s spurred research into ways to conserve energy. During the period of investigation, it was realized that a large amount of energy was lost through the windows of buildings, so explorations were made into the problem of too-open window glass. It was discovered that the technology was, in fact, already created and being used. ![]() Geocache Your Way to a Home SaleGeocaching began in the year 2000 when people realized that Global Positioning Systems (GPS) could be used to pinpoint locations where a cache was hidden. This cache usually took the form of plastic or metal canisters which housed tradable items and a logbook. It has grown to nearly 850,000 caches logged around the world. For more information about geocaching, head over to geocaching.com ![]() New Home Incentive DealsThe world of new home real estate is not much different. All over America, developers are faced with the problem of too much inventory or too many unsold new houses. They too are offering sales in the form of builders incentives. Here is a sampling of some of the best incentives we've found out there. Be sure to visit the builder's sites to read the conditions that go along with the various promotions. ![]() Successfully RefinancingWith long term interest rates hovering at just over five percent, refinancing a mortgage can be a tempting prospect. Currently, financial institutions have much stricter lending criteria and not everyone who applies for new funding is accepted.
