It's Time To Play - SUPER Fun Outdoor Spaces

By
Jenell Fontes
Great weather is right around the corner and it’s time to get outside and enjoy it. A fantastic way to do this is to turn your backyard into a SUPER fun outdoor space. Designing your back yard or outdoor spaces as an entertainment area will not only enhance your family's quality time together, it will also add value to your home. I'm pretty sure we all like that!

To create your fun outdoor space, identify how you want to use it. Treat your outdoors and backyard as an extended living space with a purpose. Imagine how you would like to spend more time outdoors. It might be playing, relaxing, entertaining or a combination of all three. Here are a few ideas that will get you started:


•     Set up seating areas with interesting art or water features to create a view. 
•     Add a hammock or lounger to small spaces.  
•     Add paving stones to define areas and pathways.  
•     Make sure that your outdoor area is clean and organized and purposeful.  
•     A fun add to a larger outdoor space are “jumbo” outdoor games.


Try one of these super fun games at your next family event or gathering

It’s Time To Re-Kindle The Romance With Your Home - Falling In Love With Your Home All Over Again

By
Jenell Fontes Using the tips from these professional stagers, in a short time you can re-style and bring your home up to model home standards and walking into your “NEW” home you just might fall in love with it all over again.   Step number one to falling in love with your home again is to take a walk through your home as if you had never been there before.   Make a list of all the little annoying things that need to be fixed - the broken drawer, the squeaky door, and the annoying way the closet never quite shuts right. Next, add to your visual list the places in your home that pile up with junk, paperwork or clothes. Lastly, make a mental note about what you love and think of ways to accent those features.    One of the quickest ways to make a difference in your home is to get rid of the clutter. Go through every room with a box and put 10 things in it that you don’t love or need in that room. Box them up, date the box, and put them in th...

Welcome To My Real Estate Blog

By
Jenell Fontes Welcome to my blog…  I have been excited and tentative about starting a blog for over a year now.  The focus of my blog is intended to be real estate and investment principals, “NEW” investment ideas and strategies, enhancing the value of your current asset base, What’s “HOT” and What’s “NOT”,  and keeping a pulse on the REAL ESTATE market. That being said, if every once in a while I go off on a personal rant please forgive me. In my mind having a blog is like having your own mint “soap box” and I might have the urge to pull out the megaphone and shout. I would also occasionally send accolades and kudos to those that are striving to make a difference in our world and local community. I look forward to bringing you the kind of information that I have from being in the trenches. I pride myself in my overall research to make sure that I understand my clients future and long term investment goals. I try to have an overview of their i...
