Do You Have Unclaimed Property?

Jim & I recently got a notice in the mail from the State Controller's Office, saying that we had unclaimed money from a property we sold 5 years ago. I thought it was a scam, so I researched it online & called the State Controller's Office to verify.
 
It turned out to be true, so I wanted to pass the link on to you if you missed the media memo about it like I did. :)
 
Ladies: try your maiden name as well, I found about $50 due me under my former name!
In the Mail: "Today's Homes and Appliances are Built Smart"
 
Mail boxThis month's Item of Value* was about how to make your home "smart".  One way to make your home smarter is by being energy efficient with intelligent technology integration. For instance, do your appliances have the "Energy Star" label?  Energy efficient appliances may cost more initially, but will save you money on utility bills in the long term.
 
For some more ideas on smart appliances, visit these links: Energy Star and Energy Efficient Products.
 
Sneak Peak at next month's Item of Value: "How to Understand & Improve Your Credit Score" gives great tips for increasing & maintaining your credit score.
