Home…Talkin’ Tips

Summertime can bring drought conditions to many parts of the country. There are many ways to conserve water and save on your utility bills.
• Turn off the tap – An open faucet will send 7 gallons of water down the drain every minute. Turn off the faucet when you brush your teeth – saving at least 1000 gallons of water per year. To wash dishes, turn off water to apply soap, then rinse.
• Fix Leaks – 13 percent of home water usage is due to household leaks. A dripping faucet can waste 2700 gallons per year.
• Lawn & Garden – Water in the early morning or at dusk. A beautiful lawn enhances curb appeal.

New Holiday/Vacation Homes For Sale

Usually the price of a home mortgage loan is stated in terms of an interest rate, points or other fees. A “point” is a fee equal to 1 percent of the loan amount. Sometimes you can pay fewer points in exchange for a higher interest rate or vice versa.

Making comparisons and shopping around is the best way to find the home mortgage that suits your needs.
