homeowner and local
It covers everything from keeping a Home Manual for your home with receipts from service calls, to keeping a realistic pace and budget for buying things you need for your home, all the way to ways to cut your utility costs and making sure you have enough homeowners insurance coverage. I also talk about the common tools every homeowner should have on hand as well as DIY projects you can tackle on your own, and ones that would be a good idea to call an expert for.

How does it work? It starts with a casual conversation!
I’ll ask questions about your home renovation goals and I can help you know what projects will likely give you the biggest return on your investment and ones you may want to skip altogether. I can also tell you what buyers are looking for if you’re thinking about selling anytime in the next few years.
Case in point, granite countertops were the countertop of every buyer’s dream for years! Now, marble is all the rage, and will probably change again in 5 years’ time.
I’ll also help guide you with all the many financing options out there for home renovations much as I did when you went through the mortgage application process when you purchased your home.
There are many options apart from having cash-on-hand to make these updates including cash-out refinances (that may or may not be a good idea depending on your current interest rate, and the one you’d likely get), as well as tapping into your equity with a Home Equity Loan or Line of Credit.
There are even options if you don’t have a lot of equity just yet but have some major renovations to do. One loan program in particular will actually use the future value of your home once the renovations are completed when determining how much you can borrow now.
I can also give you some recommendations for contractors and other professionals that can help with your home renovations and even questions you should be asking to find the right one for you!
So, whether you’re looking to make some minor updates to major renovations, let’s start with a casual conversation now. You’ll be better prepared and know exactly what to do to reach your home renovation goals and have a plan to move forward!
