With the US Housing Market showing such strong signs of a strong rebound many families are ready to make an investment in a new home. Cities Like Las Vegas, Henderson and North Las Vegas are currently toping the market as most desirable and affordable place s to live. Whether you’re ready to begin your New Home Search, or are “just curious,” here are a few tips to make your house hunts more productive.

Below are 7 house hunting tips that will make your home purchasing a lot smoother and easier.

1. Create a List of the must have features.
2. Take notes about the homes you view.
3. Consider what changes or upgrades are needed to make the home comfortable for you to live in.
4. Visit the home during different times of day, notice the traffic, noise, and vibe of the neighborhood.
5. View the home as a blank canvas, evaluate the size of your current belongings and what a fresh coat of paint can alter the room.
6. Take photos or even video to help you recall the features you like.
7. Sketch a floor plan to help with furniture layout. Perhaps your heir loomed king size headboard will not make it up the winding stair case.

Best Neighborhood Holiday Lights in Las Vegas

Best Neighborhood Holiday Lights in Las Vegas

Great holiday light display in Vegas!

Looking for a fun Holiday outing in Las Vegas? Check out the festive holiday lights on Quiver Point Ave.
It might be my favorite holiday tradition, pilling the kids in the car with cup full of hot chocolate and enjoying neighborhood holiday light displays across the Greater Las Vegas Valley.

Once again, the 1700 block of Quiver Point Avenue, in Henderson, provides a twinkling, show stopping self -tour. This year they went all-out with their cartoon and Disney themed Holiday light display set to music. This neighborhood proudly impresses the Clark Griswold in each of us.

Kids of all ages were delighted at their bright and colorful festive display. Festive yards including great scenes from the hit movies Despicable Me,  Spiderman, Finding Nemo, Madagascar, 101 Dalmatians, and even a pink lit Disney Princess themed yard are on display.
Traditional displays also included a lovely nativity, a yard full of Santa’s, and a Gingerbread Styled House with Santa’s Workshop Cul-de-Sac.

Winter is a GREAT time to sell your home in Las Vegas!

Sell Your Las Vegas Home NOW!

702-540-1327

Like many homeowners in Las Vegas looking to move up, or sell, you may be wondering if now is a good time to put your current home on the market?

It absolutely is!

Potential sellers may be hesitant to put their home on the market in the winter because of the misconception that it’s not an optimal time for selling. However, regardless of the time of year there are always buyers in the market for a new home.

One advantage of selling in the winter is that you can stage your home to take advantage of the indoor warmth, décor and spirit of the season.

Think warm, neutral, cozy and homey!

Small touchs like placing a bright warm throw over the corner of the sofa encourage a cozy feel!

Prepare the home like you are expecting company.

When showing your home to potential buyers it is always a great idea to turn up the thermostat and let in the natural light.

Lightly fill the home with pleasant scents by simmering spices such as cinnamon in water on the stove, or bake a tray of  fresh cookies. Chocolate Chip is always a hit in our family.

Many seller have had success by lighting candles with the aroma of cookies or apple pie.  In fact, many people find that faux food candles are a natural fit real estate showings!

Other winter home staging ideas include:

• Setting your dining room table for a dinner for two
• Turning on soft music
• Tastefully display holiday décor, and lighting the Christmas Tree

If you’re interested in selling your home, please contact Lindstrom and Associates of Keller Williams Realty Southwest, proudly serving Las Vegas, Henderson, and North Las Vegas Real Estate. To learn more about the value of your home and our local real estate  market give us a call or email today.

Please feel free share this information with family or friends who may be thinking about putting their homes on the market.

From my family to yours: Have a happy and safe holiday season with your loved ones.

Las Vegas Home Maintenance Checklist

 

 

Home Maintenance Checklist

 

702-540-1327

With temperatures hitting below freezing today in the Greater Las Vegas Valley thoughts may shift to routine and extreme weather home maintenance. For many owning your own home may be one of the most costly investments you will ever make. That is whey keeping your home in good working order not only contributes to your comfort and enjoyment, it is vital to maintaining the value of your property year round.
Here is a handy checklist for bi-annual checklist of recommended routine maintenance.
Always remember to check & make repairs “As Needed”, and take extra precautions under extreme weather conditions:

 Roof. Check roof, around vents, skylights and chimneys for evidence of leaks, debris, build up and rotting.
Attic. Check condition of insulation. Rule of thumb is that the attic should be 10 degrees warmer than the outside air.
Gutters & Drain Pipes. Clean gutters and drain pipes so leaves won’t clog them and be sure they drain away from the house.
Trees. Trim trees and dead branches. If a tree looks unhealthy, consult with an arborist to see if the tree should be removed or can be saved.
Siding & Paint. Look for signs of deteriorating paint, cracks and holes in the house siding or paint.
Windows & Doors. Seal drafty doors and windows. Check for staining and dampness around window sills and look for failed window seals.
Faucets & Toilets. Check for leaks in kitchen and bathrooms.
Filters. Remember to clean or replace filters in accordance with manufacturer instructions. Check and clean dryer vent, air conditioner, stove hood, and bathroom fans regularly.
Safety Equipment. Test and replace batteries in smoke & carbon monoxide detectors and make sure fire extinguishers are in good working order.
Hot Water Heater. Make sure that the straps are secure.
Heating System. Have the heating system serviced. Change filters.
Air-conditioning System: Have the air conditioning system serviced. Change filters.

Remember your home can’t take care of itself. Your monthly budget should include money for routine maintenance and repair for the house and yard.

If any problems arise, be sure to check your Home Warranty to see if it is covered.

Please do not hesitate to give us call if you ever have any questions or concerns. Lindstrom and Associates of Keller Williams Realty Southwest in Las Vegas, is honored to earn the right to service all of your Las Vegas, Henderson and North Las Vegas real estate and community needs.
