To prevent the mess and aggravation of frozen water pipes, protect your home, apartment or business by following the simple steps below.

8

BEFORE COLD WEATHER

WHEN IT’S COLD

1. Locate and insulate pipes most susceptible to freezing, typically those near outer walls, in crawl spaces or in the attic.

1. Let hot and cold water trickle at night from a faucet on an outside wall.

2. Wrap pipes with heat tape (UL approved).

2. Open cabinet doors to allow more heat to get to un-insulated pipes under a sink or appliance near an outer wall.

3. Seal any leaks that allow cold air inside where pipes are located.

3. Make sure heat is left on and set no lower than 55 degrees.

4. Disconnect garden hoses and shut off and drain water from pipes leading to outside faucets. This reduces the chance of freezing in the short span of pipe just inside the house.

4. If you plan to be away: (1) Have someone check your house daily to make sure the heat is still on to prevent freezing, or (2) drain and shut off the water system (except indoor sprinkler systems).

IF PIPES FREEZE 1. Make sure you and your family knows how to shut off the water, in case pipes burst. Stopping the water flow will minimize the damage to your home. Call a plumber and contact your insurance agent.

2. Never try to thaw a pipe with an open flame or torch.

3. Always be careful of the potential for electric shock in and around standing water.

HOW TO SHOW OFF YOUR HOME FOR THE

Brokers Jeff & Heather Buchanan Answer Your Real Estate Questions Whether your home is on the market now, or you plan to list it in the near future, the holiday season is the perfect excuse to show it off! It’s the only time of year when it’s perfectly acceptable to light up anything and everything.

But there are a few guidelines that need to be followed to make sure your holiday decor garners the right kind of attention.

LIGHT IT UP! Exterior lights are a sure-fire way to turn heads and create a magical first impression. They are also a great way to draw attention to your home’s most attractive features. You want to highlight things like your home’s architectural assets and special landscaping. And if you have a large yard, you can easily show that off by outlining the perimeter with staked lights or a well-placed, tasteful yard decoration.

Buyers seem to be most attracted to a monochromatic color scheme, so try to avoid mixing colored lights. Blinking lights tend to create a chaotic feel, so opt for lights that remain steady or subtly twinkle. You can never go wrong with white lights. There is nothing more magical than twinkling, lighted trees that look like they are straight out of a fairy tale. If done correctly, buyers will find your house irresistible and they will be dying to know what it looks like on the inside. All the attention lighting your home will get makes it well worth paying one of the many seasonal light services to put up the lights for you, especially since you will recoup that money when you have it sold!

Holidays.

it actually is. And we all have way too many holiday decorations, so be choosy and narrow down your display to your nicest pieces. Fewer items will make the shelves and decorated areas appear roomier. So when in doubt, leave it out!

PLAY ON THE SENSES! The sense of smell evokes powerful emotions, so bring the smells of the holidays to life in your home. Cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and peppermint all conjure up warm memories of holidays past for most of us. Candles, diffusers, and air sprays can help you create a lasting, positive impression on buyers.

And let’s not forget the sense of taste! Leaving out fresh baked treats with a handwritten note for potential buyers is an easy way to create that homey feel that makes them want to stay. Even if they don’t actually eat any, the perception of a warm, welcoming, wonderful home will stick with them.

If you need guidance on staging your home for the holidays, Buchanan Realty can help. Any of our outstanding agents will be thrilled to show you how to turn your home into a magical holiday scene that buyers can’t resist! Call us at Buchanan Realty today!

SET THE STAGE! You can create a warm first impression that invites buyers into your home by staging your front porch with a cheerful wreath and seasonal flowers. Once inside, you can use interior holiday decorations to paint the picture of a warm, cozy holiday that any family would love. It’s a chance to show buyers what their future Christmases could look like. Buyers will get excited when they see there is a perfect place to put their Christmas tree and imagine how beautiful their stockings will look hanging from the mantle.
