IS YOUR MORTGAGE COMING UP FOR RENEWAL THIS SUMMER?

Did you know that historically, June 30 is typically the largest mortgage volume funding date every year? Summer is always the busiest time of the year for real estate which means that you may very well have an upcoming renewal over the next 120 days. Given the current market conditions, you may be starting to notice that rising interest rates and inflation are impacting your monthly budget, which includes a higher than expected rate with your current mortgage providers’ renewal offer. Now is a great time to sit down and chat about your renewal and take the time to consider what other options may be available. You may also be looking at possible home improvements, consolidating debt, selling your home, buying a vacation/investment property, or other major life changes, and it’s always best to make sure that your upcoming renewal and mortgage specialist takes those changes into consideration. Jeremy Garth at Zipp Mortgage is happy to help. With eight years of mortgage industry experience under his belt, he can help you put together a plan for your mortgage so you can be confident that your current and future goals and needs will be met.

5 Year Fixed: 3.89% APR* 5 Year Variable/Adjustable: 2.15% APR**

Quoted rates are as of today, May 18, 2022, and subject to change. *Fixed Rate offer subject to qualification and approval /application meeting mortgage product criteria. **Variable/Adjustable rate based on a discount off of the Prime Rate of 3.20% (3.20% - 1.55% = 2.25% APR) & subject to qualification & approval/application meeting mortgage product criteria.

6 tips for renovating your foyer Does your foyer need a little TLC? If so, here are six tips for a successful update project.

1. CONSIDER THE FRONT DOOR If your front door is in good condition, a fresh coat of paint can do wonders. If you need to replace your door, choose one that’s sturdy, secure and has sufficient insulation.

2. ADD WINDOWS If you want your foyer to feel bright and inviting, install windows on either side of the door or choose a model with built-in windows.

3. SPRUCE UP YOUR FLOORING The floor in your foyer takes a beating and must with­stand water, dirt and salt. Consequently, choose durable, easy-to-clean materials like ceramic, stone, concrete or vinyl.

4. IMPROVE THE LIGHTING Make sure your entryway is well-lit, both inside and outside. Whether tying your shoelaces or getting your key into the lock, having good lighting can make your everyday life easier.

5. MAKE STORAGE A PRIORITY Foyers tend to get cluttered. Therefore, efficiency is key. Make space to store clothes and accessories for summer and winter.

Furthermore, consider installing a custom-made cabinet to provide easy access and make the most of the space.

6. PAY ATTENTION TO DECOR Don’t overload your foyer. Instead, focus on a few well-selected decorative touches.

Reduce your carbon footprint with

Locally Made Windows

Choose light sha­des to make the space feel open and airy.
