Selling a Home: Must-Do Fall Maintenance
Fall is a time for change and selling your home is one of the biggest changes you can make. If you're eyeing an upcoming date to list your home, you want to make sure the entire property is ready for prospective buyers to view. Hopefully, you've been diligent with your seasonal maintenance tasks.

However, even if you have remained on-schedule with your monthly maintenance responsibilities, there are a few others you may want to focus on if you're hoping to list your home for sale in autumn. Our real estate agents share tips to help get your home ready.

5 Tips for Multi-Generational Homebuying
When you're looking to buy a home, there are plenty of things to think about. Not the least of which is whether or not you want a home that can accommodate your parents, grandparents, or even your kids years down the road if necessary. We always hope that our elders and children live long, healthy lives, but there are times where they need help from family members.
Our real estate agents understand the challenges to multi-generational homebuyers, so we've put together these five tips for buying with a multi-generational focus.
- Why Consider Multi-Generational Living?
You never really know what's waiting around the corner, but keeping a close eye on what's happening currently with both your family, as well as economic conditions, can help you buy now for later.
Multi-generational homes have been around for decades, but the market crash of 2008 made them a mainstay in the housing industry. As the housing market plummeted, more and more families were forced into single homes. Parents moved in with children, grandparents moved in with grandchildren, and children moved in with both.
All of that to say, know what you may be in for based on your family's dynamics.

Generations of local families have turned to West End Bakery for apple fritters, chocolate-glazed donuts, and other baked treats as well as their specialty wedding and birthday cakes.
