Identify Why You Want to Move.

Do you need more space? Less? Are you living with family and simply ready to move into your own home? Some people move because they want fewer neighbors, some because they like the security of having more neighbors nearby. Maybe you don't like the school district where you now live. Perhaps you need to be closer to a family member. Each element of why you want to move plays a big part in how your home search will begin, where you'll start looking, and how much you can expect to pay.

Each new year brings fresh trends in home building and design, from paint colors to technology, lot sizes, and amenities. Here are three of the biggest trends we'll be watching for 2020 in Metro Atlanta:

Technology

It’s been happening for years, and the trend continues to grow. Smart home technology is coming to more new homes in 2020. Features like keypad locks on entry doors and video doorbell systems will be standard items on more new homes in the coming year. You can already buy the technology to control your fridge temperature, turn on your living room lights, and record your favorite show all from your smart phone. It won’t be long before similar items are offered with your home purchase.

Natural Colors and… Gold!

Today is bright and sunny in metro Atlanta, but cold weather is just around the corner. More than a few of us at Peggy Slappey Properties are hoping for a snowy Christmas! While that might not be too realistic, it is smart to think ahead and prepare your home for below-zero temps before they sneak up on you and cause real damage. Here are a few quick reminders to help avoid frozen and burst pipes and all the mess that goes with them:

  1. Disconnect garden hoses.  Drain the hoses appropriately before storing for the winter.
  2. Turn off water to outside faucets by using the valve inside your home.  Drain the remaining water by allowing it to run until dry. Use insulating faucet covers for further protection.

Did you know December can be a great time to sell your home? The winter season traditionally sees a slow-down in sales simply because there are fewer homes on the market, but buyers in December are highly motivated, often looking to move quickly and settle in for the New Year. Home staging can make all the difference, especially when holiday decorating is thrown into the mix. Here are a few tips to make your home stand out and sell fast this holiday season:

Before you start chopping, peeling and mixing, there are a few practical steps you can take to get your home ready for the biggest meal of the year.
