Three Step Thursday: Building Your Dream Home

Investing in a new custom built home can be both nerve-racking and exhilarating. In the pursuit to build your dream home we’ve highlighted the top 3 steps of the process.



Find Your Land: It’s important that you find that perfect parcel. You will be spending a majority of your time in your new home so it should attract to you and your lifestyle. Whether it is the location, nearby attractions such as parks, hiking trails, or restaurants, or simply the landscape views it offers, you want it to be a place you can relax and enjoy.

Choose Your Home Plan: While you explore many floor plans be sure to uncover the floor plan that will best accommodate you, your family, and every day needs. If you have children and pets maybe you will consider having a mudroom. If you or your loved one works from home often, an office space could be valuable. If you are someone who likes to entertain year round an open floor plan will be essential. Every home has its own personality, make sure your new home captures yours!


Select Your Décor: Your home is not complete without the finishing touches. After your floor plan is final, let the fun begin! From selecting your kitchen cabinetry, bathroom vanities, to fixtures, flooring and paint, set your creative mind free. Visit our Pinterest boards for inspiration!

#SolarSunday

Having a pool to cool off and relax in is a luxury that is especially nice during these hot summer months. But, like most luxuries in life, time, energy, and money must be put into owning a pool. One of the costs associated with having a pool is the money it takes to heat a pool. If you are interested in swimming in your pool after the sun goes down or during cooler months, heating your pool is a viable option to consider. Check out some information about how solar hot water collectors can heat your pool. How does it work? Pool water gets pumped through a filter into a solar hot water collector. Solar hot water collectors are thin and generally mounted on a roof. Thin pipes of water then run through the collector. When the sun's rays hit the collector, they heat the running water inside.
