With the official start of Autumn just a week away, now is a great time to begin fall maintenance on your home. And while it would be great if lighting pumpkin spice candles and hanging festive fall colored wreaths were all you had to do to prepare your house for the season, we have a couple (arguably more important) items to add to your list. 

Below we have outlined a checklist of things you should do to transition your Omaha, NE home from those warm summer days to the crisp nights of fall. Let’s dive in: 

-Check Drafts: Did you know that loss of heat through windows accounts for roughly 30 percent of heating energy use (according to the U.S. Department of Energy)? One of the most cost-effective ways to lower your heating costs in the winter is to utilize weatherstripping. A great way to see if you are facing a draft issue is to close a window or door over a piece of paper. If you are able to easily slide the piece of paper it may be time to check the weatherstripping. 

-Clean Gutters: Many people are so used to their gutters working properly that they forget they may need a little attention now and again. Keeping them clean, and even replacing them if necessary, is a great way to avoid interior and exterior damage. 

-Fix Cracks In Driveway: Some homeowners don’t realize that when water gets into the cracks it freezes, expands and can eventually end up making the crack bigger, which leads to larger problems down the road. 

-Drain Outdoor Faucets: Prevent water freezing and pipes bursting this winter by draining and disconnecting all gardens hoses from the outside spigots. This is a simple way to avoid an unwanted headache. 

-Keep Critters Out: To prevent little critters from coming inside to escape the cold make sure to cover large holes in walls and, if you have an attic, check the insulation for any damage. 

-Lastly: Remember to change your filters and schedule a chimney cleaning/heating system maintenance.

From new, modern homes to old fixer-uppers - whatever your taste let our experienced team help you find your dream home in Omaha, NE. Be sure to sign up for our listing alerts here!

If you are thinking of selling your house in Omaha, NE chances are you have done a mental walkthrough of everything you need to fix, paint and/or redecorate before the listing goes live. And while the list may seem a mile long, there are certain projects that should be bumped to the front and be top priority. 

In today’s blog post we are going to be discussing four things that you should repair before selling your home - let’s dive in: 

Paint: If you are looking for an easy and cheap way to update the interior/exterior of your home, grab a paint brush! Old chipped paint can be a huge turnoff for potential buyers. Light, neutral tones are a safe bet when it comes to choosing colors as they will make your home appear brighter and appeal to a wide range of people. Also, be sure to remove any old wallpaper as it tends to date a house.

Damaged flooring: One area that potential home buyers take notice of is the flooring throughout a house. If you have worn and damaged flooring, especially hard wood flooring, it’s not only an eyesore but can also take away from the value of your house. If it’s in your budget, replacing the floors is best. If not, you can refinish/deep clean them and bring some life back into your home. 

Exterior: You never get a second chance at a first impression, so be sure to make it a good one when buyers come to tour the house. The first thing people will see is the exterior of your home so its crucial to make it look good. Pull the weeds, mow the lawn, plant some flowers, replace missing fence boards, remove any junk, fix the roof and add a fresh coat of paint to the front door. 

Pet damage: Even though you love your furry four-legged friends, you can’t deny the impact they can have on a home. If you are thinking of selling your house, be sure to repair any damage that resulted from your pets. Everything from the scratches on the doors to the urine stains on the carpets. Potential buyers touring the home should (ideally) have no idea that pets live in the home.

Buying a house is the largest purchase most people will make in their lifetime. And while the internet is a wonderful place to find information when it comes to home buying, there is also a lot of information out there that is misleading or downright not true. In today’s blog post we are going to be discussing four common myths about home buying - let’s dive in: 

1. The first myth that we are debunking is that you need a 20% down payment. While sometimes this is true and putting that much down can have its benefits, you don’t always need that much to buy your dream home. There are some loan programs that allow for half of that, or even less. 

2. The second myth that we are busting is that you have to be completely out of debt before you are able to own a home. Yes, that means if you are carrying student loans or other forms of debt, you could still qualify. Mortgage underwriters like to see you using and managing credit responsibly, so ensuring your payments are made on time is crucial. 

3. Piggybacking off our last myth, number three is that your credit score needs to be perfect to buy a home. Of course having a good credit score will only help you, but don’t stress if its not great. For a conventional loan approval, the minimum FICO credit score is around 620. 

4. The last myth we are exposing is that it is cheaper to rent than to own. In the short term there may be some truth to this statement, however if you plan on renting for a few years or longer, it could be in your best interest to put that money towards an asset you own. Renting is a great option for someone who moves around a lot, but if you are planning to stay in one place for a while buying can be a great option.

So you applied for a mortgage (congratulations!) and you are wondering if there are things you should avoid doing until the process is finalized. The short answer is yes, and below we have listed five things for you to review and (hopefully) avoid doing. Let’s dive in: 

1.It is so important to ensure your bills are paid on time and to not to miss any credit card and/or loan payments. Why you ask? Well when it comes to your credit score, payment history is one of the most important factors. It can really hurt you if you show late/missed payments on credit accounts. 

2. While this next one can potentially be out of your control, you don’t want to actively switch jobs during the loan-approval process. Doing so could lead to income adjustments and thus revisions to the total amount of money you are ultimately approved for. 

3. Applying for new credit is another big no-no. Knowing your credit can be pulled at any time until the loan is finalized, you want to steer clear of anything that can negatively impact your score. Opening new lines of credit can have negative impacts on your score and further debt accumulation can increase the debt-to-income ratio (which lenders don’t want to see). 

4. ​Avoid making large deposits without a paper trail as this can indicate newly borrowed money to a loan underwriter, which in turn could read as an increase to your debt-to-income ratio. Any large sum of money that is deposited should have a clear explanation. 

5. ​Steer clear of large purchases after applying for a mortgage. Doing so could either lower your savings amount if paying cash, or increase your credit utilization and debt-to-income ratio. Hold off on furniture and appliance shopping until after the mortgage is finalized.

With patience, the right tools and a little sweat equity you can use your free time to increase the value of your house. Whether you are looking to sell now or in the future, there are many projects you can do on your own, in your own time, to improve the overall aesthetic and appeal of your home for future buyers. 

Below we have listed a few DIY projects that you can tackle over a week, weekend or even a month that are sure to increase the value of your home. Let’s dive in: 

-Painting the interior of your home is one of the most cost-effective home improvement projects for you to dive into. When it comes to buyer impressions, a fresh coat of paint can do more for your home than you think. It’s smart to stick with neutral paint colors to not only ensure it appeals to a wide variety of people, but also to keep your space looking fresh and clean.

-Giving your bathroom a refresh is another great way to appeal to buyers, as many people put a large focus on the aesthetic of the room. An outdated bathroom can really age your home and be a large turn off. It can be as simple as upgrading fixtures such as pulls and knobs, changing out the shower curtain, buying new towel to display and updating lighting fixtures.

-Refinishing or painting your kitchen cabinets is a very effective way to change the entire look and feel of your kitchen. Seeing as how many families spend a lot of time in kitchen, it is an area buyers really take a look at. While this can be a time consuming project, the payoff can be well worth it.

-Not many things date a house more than popcorn ceilings, which is why our next project for you to tackle is removing it from each room in your home. With the proper equipment and instruction, you can have those smooth ceilings in no time.

-This next project can seem like a daunting task, but if done right can really provide a great return on investment. Replacing your wall-to-wall carpeting with hard flooring is a great way to impress buyers and stay competitive in today’s market. This can be an involved process so be sure to plan ahead and have the proper tools on hand. 

-Our last DIY project will take you outdoors as you spruce up and improve your yard. Curb appeal is very important when potential buyers view your home. Doing small things such as planting flowers, removing weeds, buying new outdoor furniture, or even installing a fire pit can all go a long way.
