Finalize plans for landscaping, decks, patios, or other outdoor projects that need warm weather. Two good reasons:

 1. If you're DIYing, you'll be ready to roll at the first hint of nice weather. That way, you'll be less affected by any supply chain shortages and have your improved yard ready to enjoy by summer.

2. If you're hiring a contractor or other professional, getting your bids and contracts in place now will save you from competing with the spring rush (wait too long, and you may not be able to book anyone!).

 

Air Purifying Plants Are A Great Place To Start

 

Many air-purifying house plants put out their own sweet smell while removing the nasty ones that make your nose curl.

 

 

 

But to clarify, while NASA confirms these plants do tackle toxins, they aren't a cure-all for our homes here on earth. They'll remove some toxins, but since our homes aren't airtight (unlike NASA's space abodes), they can't remove everything because the air is constantly changing.

 

 

But don't

 

let   that

put you   off. These air-purifying plants can make

a difference in your home with their sweet scents. Here are a few to get you started.

Air-purifying plants and their scents:

  • Jasmine has a sweet aroma that can calm you
  • Lavender is great at making you sleepy
  •  
  •  
  •  
  •  
  •  
  • Sharry Baby Orchid smells like chocolate. Delicious!
  • Mother-in-Law Tongue turns carbon monoxide into oxygen
  • Devil’s Ivy, also known as pothos, can cleanse the air of toxic fumes like glue and paint
  • Mums tackle one of the toughest toxins: cigarette smoke.
  • Peace Lily can reduce those annoying “new” odors from upholstery and carpet.
  • Rosemary can help you focus and work smarter

Bottom Line

Serious buyers should approach rising rates as a motivating factor to buy sooner, not a reason to wait. Waiting will cost you more in the long run. Work with a real estate professional to understand your budget and how you can be prepared to buy your home before rates climb higher.
