- Time
to gear up for home maintenance
Spring
is nearly gone and summer is almost here, which means it's time
for a thorough, semi-annual maintenance check of your home. Doing
a few chores now, will help ensure you'll live more comfortably
throughout the summer months.
As
summer is nearly here (officially, anyway; ask any kid just out of school
and you'll find out it's really here already), much more attention is
turned to the swimming pools and tennis courts of Fayette and surrounding
counties.

The
builder's builder
In order to control
some of the anxiety that comes along with buying a new home, builders
often recommend that homebuyers shop as much for their builder as they
will for the furniture that goes inside their new home. Consumer advocates
go so far as to recommend that buyers talk to the neighbors already living
in a community in order to gauge their satisfaction ratings before buying.
Saving
for a down payment
Saving for a down payment
is a challenging step to becoming a home owner. According to Fannie Mae's
2001 National Housing Survey, 16 percent of Americans are currently saving
money in hopes of achieving the American dream.
