Greetings!
Cool nights and crisp mornings remind us that summer is coming to an end. The smell of fall is in the air! Soon the leaves will be changing color and begin to fall. September brings the start of school, football and apple picking at your favorite orchard.
September also starts the fall housing season. The interest rates are still low and there are many wonderful houses on the market, so it's a perfect time to buy or sell. Call or email with any of your housing needs.

Curb Appeal Tips for Fall
If you're selling a home this fall, make the most of the season with these seven ideas for sprucing up your home's exterior.
By Shannon Petrie, FrontDoor.com |
Spruce Up the Lawn
While brilliant fall foliage can automatically make your home look more attractive for showings, that doesn't mean you can slack off on lawn maintenance during this season. Keep falling leaves at bay with frequent raking and patch up any brown spots in the grass.
Add Fall Flowers
Once your lawn is looking its best, spice it up with a splash of color. As your summer plants start to fade, replace them with vibrant mums or other colorful flowers.
Highlight the Front Door
Making your front door the focal point of your home's exterior is a good tactic no matter what time of year you decide to sell your home. During the fall, a simple wreath of fall foliage and flowers can add an inviting touch. A fresh coat of paint in a vivid red can also make your entrance stand out.

5 Questions to Ask Yourself Before Buying a Home
Tara Nelson
In most parts of the country, the housing market is good (or great!) for buyers right now - interest rates are bizarrely low, lots of inventory means lots to choose from, and the cost of renting has increased in a lot of markets. But just because the market's good doesn't mean it's the right time for everyone to buy. The decision whether to buy a home is a very personal one; you need to carefully examine your own situation to determine whether it's right for you.
So, what are the questions you need to answer in deciding whether you're ready to buy? Here are some of the big ones:
1. Do I have enough money for a down payment?
And how much, exactly, is "enough?" Today's minimum down payment requirements range from 3.5 percent on an FHA loan to 10 or even 20 percent for conventional loans. That means coming up with anywhere from $7,000 to $40,000 on a typical $200,000 house. While there are still programs that can give you a down payment assist (see last week's post, 5 Insider Secrets for Coming Up With Cash for Down Payment), much of the heavy lifting here will need to come from you - in the form of saving up your hard earned cash. And keep in mind there are also closing costs you'll probably have to pay in cash, which can run as high as 3-4% of your total purchase price.
