Fall Cleaning Chore Checklist
It's Autumn.
 Pumpkins glow in golden fields. Shorter days, crisp mornings signal winter's approach.
Can the holidays be far behind?
Use Autumn's brisk and breezy days to conquer deep-cleaning chores for a clean and comfortable winter home, and wrap up summer's outdoor areas.
Outside The House
Summer's come and gone--and left its mark on outside the house.
Time to come inside for winter! Outside the house tend to these autumn chores:
- Clean and store patio furniture and umbrellas.
- Inspect external doors and garage doors. Do they close tightly? Install weather-stripping, door thresholds if needed.
- Wash exterior windows.
- Drain and store garden hoses. Install insulating covers on exterior spigots.
- Have chimneys and flues inspected and cleaned if necessary.
If you are interested in learning more about the lifestyle in an Active Adult Community, CALL TODAY (408.274.8766) for a complimentary Introductory Tour of The Villages Golf & Country Club.

Understanding California Property Taxes
|
|
California property taxes can be complex and difficult to understand. For many California taxpayers, the property tax bill is one of the largest tax payments they make each year. For thousands of California local governments, including K-12 schools, community colleges, cities, counties and special districts, revenue from property tax bills represents the foundation of their budgets. Sample California property tax bill:
- Box A identifies the taxable value of the property.
- Box B shows the property's tax levies that are calculated based on this value.
- Box C shows all other taxes and charges based on factors other than the property's assessed value.
- Box D shows the total amount due. The first payment is due byDecember 10, and the second payment is due by April 10.
