 Summer Decorating Tip 



Are you tired of your walls?   

 

Painting is one of the cheapest, easiest ways to help your home look fresh and great.   Choose neutral colors and that doesn't have to mean bland!

 

Consider dressing up an accent wall, easily and cost-effectively with repositionable wallpaper or a removable wallpaper mural.  Websites like Murals Your Way offer a wide variety of repositionable wall coverings, called SmartStick, in a variety of designs.   A patented adhesive makes it easy to install the mural - creating an eye-catching focal point for any room - and you can remove it and replace at any time.    It's a great way to get a designer look at a fraction of the cost - and without the commitment of traditional wallpaper.     

 

Prices are at the mid 2000's offerings!

Now is the time to purchase, don't let an opportunity to purchase with low interest rates and lower prices pass you by.   Prices are rising in The Villages so don't wait...today is the BEST day to purchase!  

 

We have Villas and homes currently being offered from the
mid $200,000's to $700,000+.  CALL today  (408) 274.8766 for a tour and to find your home in this "hidden gem" in Santa Clara Valley.

Client/Business Associate Testimonial:    

 

 "We cannot compliment Carla enough on how patient she was with us, but aside from that, she provided us with so much information about all things available in The Villages. She went above and beyond to just 'be there' for us. NEVER did we feel pressured, but rather that we were working with a friend who always had our best interests in mind." - Vel and Carleen, The Villages Golf & Country Club
