Easy Room Makeovers
As much fun as it can be to decorate your home, it can also be pretty time consuming and cause you to put it off longer than you would like to. With Spring in full swing, the urge to redecorate is strong. We have some ideas for you that can make over your home in a flash.
Rearrange your furniture: A little feng shui can go a long way to changing up the look and feel of your home. For example, moving your furniture away from the walls of a room creates a more intimate setting for you and your guests.
Add color: The warmer months beg for color, so why not add it inside your home? Think cheerful colors like bright yellows, royal blues, crisp whites and intense greens. Use them on your bedding, as curtains, or any other spot in your house that needs a little brightening up!
Try a bold tablecloth: Just switching out your tablecloth can make a huge difference in your dining room. Strong color combinations and graphic patterns can add just the perfect amount of punch and take no time at all.
Show your shelves some love: Painting only the shelves in a room takes very little time, but can make a lasting statement. Go for eye-catching colors like orange and red, or use lighter complimentary colors that enhance what your space already has.
With these tips, you can freshen up your living space without spending a lot of time!

With rental rates climbing, buying a home may be the more affordable and sensible option once you find your ideal space.
Number Two: Interest rates are low. Current interest rates for buying a home are at their lowest in years and the latest surveys from lenders show there hasn’t been much variation. 30 year fixed-rate mortgages have averaged as low as 3.98{8a4f45d74d514e6dd6794b8c6dd875260e3343c96bf403696e21fc128bbedf7b}. These lower interest rates make buying a home much more affordable.
Number Three: Mortgages are easier to get. The standards for credit have lowered, and you don’t necessarily have to have to best credit score to qualify. Along with credit scores lowering, the upfront costs associated with home buying have dropped as well, making loans more affordable.
