Fixing Yourself Up With a Fixer-Upper

Fixing Yourself Up With a Fixer-Upper

It’s easy to fall under the spell of reality TV’s quick and easy fixer-upper transformations, but don’t be fooled into believing that every project has a fairy tale ending.

Buying a fixer-upper is a great way to get into the market, but it’s a huge decision that shouldn’t be taken lightly. Here are a few things to consider if you’re ready to take on the task of turning a dump into a dream:

Inspect the Unexpected
Have the home inspected by a highly qualified professional to help make sure you don’t end up with a structurally flawed money pit.

Strong Foundation
Living in a construction zone can be stressful, so make sure you and your partner are prepared for the chaotic twists and turns of a home renovation.

Time & Money
Set your renovation budget to include a bit of wiggle room to allow for any unexpected surprises. The same goes for your timeline, as delays are inevitable.

D.I.Why?
Fixing up a home is a great way to learn new skills, but know your limits. Mistakes can be easily corrected while painting, but laying down tile is a one-shot deal.

Think Ahead
It’s important to think long-term and consider how much value your renovations will add when it comes time to sell your home.

Transforming a fixer-upper into a dream home can be a rewarding experience, but it can also be a lot of work. It’s therefore important to carefully weigh the pros and cons before diving in.

Whatever you decide, please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions about your next move!

National Rescue Dog Day

National Rescue Dog Day

For all you dog lovers out there, May 20th marks National Rescue Dog Day, which was created to help raise awareness about the huge number of dogs who are currently waiting in shelters for a new place to call home.

The K-W Humane Society has been working tirelessly to rescue and care for animals that have been abandoned, abused or neglected, but they’re extremely overwhelmed at the moment.

It’s easy to help though. For example, consider donating some of your old towels and blankets. They’re also in constant need of pet food, cleaning supplies, grooming tools, leashes, chew toys and, of course, treats!

Adoption is the ultimate goal. Having a loyal pet by your side is a great way to fetch joy and chase away loneliness, but if you’re unable to take on a dog full-time, there are a variety of volunteer opportunities, such as fostering or dog walking.

If you already share your home with a rescue dog, remember to post a pic of your pup on May 20th with the hashtag #nationalrescuedogday, along with a short story of how you and your dog have changed each other’s lives.

This National Rescue Dog Day, unleash some love and loyalty by adopting,
