Happy Thanksgiving From The Heim-Berg Team!

by Nancy Heim-berg

Happy Thanksgiving From The Heim-Berg Team! It truly is the most wonderful time of the year! 

With Thanksgiving tomorrow, you may find yourself busy running around with last minute errands and never ending shopping lists. And while this holiday is traditionally centered around hearty food, football and gathering with friends and family, it’s also a time that people reflect on the many blessings that fill their days throughout the year and all they are grateful for. 

Keeping with the theme and essence of the holiday, today’s blog post is dedicated to ways in which you can show gratitude each day to keep the Thanksgiving spirt alive throughout the year. Especially with the challenges that the last few years have brought, the world would benefit from all the joy and light you bring.

-Be thoughtful of others by considering their feelings with every word spoken and action taken.

-Be gracious when someone challenges your words, actions or views and respectfully listen to their point of view.

-Be patient with others as everyone is fighting their own battles that you may know nothing about. 

-Share in other people’s joys and victories as if they were your own. 

-Take a few moments each night to write down little things that happened in your day that you are grateful for. This is a great activity to find and highlight the good things in your life, no matter how small. 

 
From everyone here at the Heim-Berg Team, we wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving! We are so grateful for each of our wonderful clients and appreciate the opportunity to serve you.

Check These Plumbing Issues Before Buying A Omaha, NE Home

by Nancy Heim-berg

Check These Plumbing Issues Before Buying A Omaha, NE HomeThere is something to be said about the charm and character that comes along with buying an older home. And while you should always check on various areas of the house you are purchasing, plumbing is one that should not be overlooked - especially if you are eyeing an older property. 

Below we have listed some areas in the plumbing department that should be checked on prior to finalizing the sale of a new home. Doing so could save you time, money and major headaches down the road. Let’s dive in:

-Checking the age of the water heater is very important. If you find that it’s more than ten years old, it more than likely is time to replace it. Also, identifying the location of the water heater is a good indicator of potential damage that could arise if it were to leak and allows you to plan accordingly. 

-Go through each toilet in the house and check for leaks and/or damage at the base, as well as discoloration, rocking or warping. You will also want to go through and flush the toilets to ensure there are no clogs. 

-Depending on the occupancy of the house over the last few years, you may find rust or corrosion when turning on the tap water. It is better to know the condition prior to moving in and plan for those costs if repairs need to be made. 

-Bringing in an expert to check the sewer line in the street via video camera is a great way to detect potential issues such as corrosion, clogs, etc. - all of which can damage the line and cause major issues down the line.

-Water supply pipes are another major area to investigate. Finding out when they were installed and if they were ever replaced, as well as what type of material they are can make a huge difference in potential repairs and/or needing to replaced prior to move in.
