Real Estate Agent with Lisa Von Domek Team TX License #0552989

It's Cold Out There!  Across the nation cold weather has arrived, even here in the Dallas area.  Keep the winter weather outside where it belongs with these home weatherizing tips.

Homes lose the most heat through doors and windows.  Adding storm doors and windows or replacing old windows with new energy efficient models help, but can be expensive.  A quick fix is to replace weatherstripping.  These ideas and more are included in this money-saving videos from Menards.

A very small investment in weather stripping can make a big difference in the inside comfort of a home.  If it's that bad then new windows are in order

I did not know you had Menards down in Texas Lisa Von Domek . The kids say Menards is Dad's Disneyland. My late stepfather used to ask me every Saturday if the "church bulletin" came in the paper.

I am very happy to be where we are on Oahu.  If it gets "Cold" it might get down to the mid 60's.  Have a fantastic New Year Lisa Von Domek !

Great tip Lisa, it is pretty cold in Chicago. Window insulation is important.

Good morning Lisa.  I'm not that far from Dallas, just a little stretch of the legs.  I know the cold weather will hit Wednesday around here.  Timely information

Good morning Lisa. The move from Florida to Chicago has me paying more attention to window insulation at this time of year! Enjoy your day!

Good morning Lisa. You are right about insulation but it isn't easy. Sometimes I think it is worth hiring someone. Happy New Year my friend.
