homebuyers: State Wide Realty Co. Tips: Ways to save money on cooling costs.
- 02/10/17 12:30 PM
Ways to save money on cooling costs.
Keeping shades pulled down during the heat of the day can help keep the sun from raising the temperature in the home. Also, using solar screens for your windows or radiant paint barrier for your attic are also effective in blocking the sun’s UV rays.
Adjust the temperature of the thermostat for times when no one is home and at night when it is cooler. That way you don’t waste energy cooling the house when no one is there.
Make sure that you maintain your cooling unit whether it is a heat pump or window … (0 comments)

What does it mean? Fixer Upper
There's an old saying that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, the same could be said about the condition and"fixing" a home needs. The term "fixer upper" has a broad definition these days to mean anything from structural repair to changing of paint color. Who would have thought that there would be a time when a home on the market for a million dollars would be considered a "fixer upper"?
So I thought I would try to clarify this term as best as I can. In general, a fixer upper is a home that needs … (0 comments)
