2014 started off with a bang! Properties were selling quickly and at great prices, and then along came April and May, and the market for whatever reason slowed down. This particular home had so much to offer, 3305 square feet, a newer kitchen and bathrooms, low property taxes of under $19,000 and all located on over 1/2 an acre.. However, I obtained the listing at the end of summer when the market had slowed down. The lucky buyers were able to obtain the home for $935,000.

Rain barrels are a great way of diverting some of the rain run-off from the leaders into the barrel itself, and then that rain water can then be used to water the grounds for example. Perfect! The home-owner at 185 Victory Boulevard did just that. Lizzy installed 5 barrels around the home to catch some of that rain-water. What a great idea, and also a wonderful way of saving some money spent on the water supply! Per HouseLogic.com, some 1300 gallons of water can potentially be saved during peak rain months and is a wonderful wa...
