It’s that time of year again, when we all do our best to predict the ups and downs of the real estate market for the year ahead. While we can’t know for certain what the future holds, there are a few educated guesses we can make, and all of them encourage you to Buy Now.

It’s cold out there, Metro Atlanta! Already, we’ve seen a few homeowners and tenants experiencing the headaches of burst pipes because of the below-freezing temperatures overnight.  It could cost you thousands in ruined sheet rock, flooring, and personal belongings. Here are a few tried-and-true tips to avoid the mess and expense of frozen and burst pipes as a result of the cold:

  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.
  3.       Turn off your sprinkler system and blow compressed air through the lines to drain them.
  4.       Close and cover basement windows
