💡 You can give your home a fresh look and feel with flush-mounted lights.

🖐️ Here’s how to install them in five easy steps.

1. Turn Off The Power And Remove The Old Fixture.
Remove the globe from the old fixture to expose the nut/bolt holding it to the ceiling. Remove the nut and pull the fixture down carefully. Remove the leads from the wires and disconnect the fixture wires from the house wires.

2. Attach New Mounting Hardware
If the old mounting hardware won’t work for the new fixture, remove it and attach a new strap to the box.

3. Connect The Wires
Use a coat hanger to support the new light fixture as you connect the wires. Connect white to white and black to black with wire nuts and black electrical tape.

4. Tighten
Neatly and gently push the wires up into the box and lift the fixture into place.

5. Install The Globe
The set screws that hold the globe in place may or may not already be in place. If they aren’t, go ahead and install them now. Push the globe so that its lip rests above the set screws and tighten the screws to hold the globe securely.

✨ Success in real estate investing begins with knowing the right people.

⬇️ Here’s how to build and maintain a strong real estate network.

1. Work hard to be trustworthy
As a new investor, it can be difficult finding people who are willing to work with you simply because they don’t know you. You’ll slowly build a reputation for being trustworthy.

2. Honesty is the best policy
Always communicate your intentions from the beginning and don’t pretend to know it all if you don’t. By being honest upfront if you aren’t sure of something, others see you as honest and are more likely to listen to you when you do know what you’re talking about.

3. Be a giver
As a successful investor, you have a responsibility to help others grow and succeed as well without expecting anything in return. Ultimately, when you give to others in your network, you sway the tide of success in your direction because when they succeed, you succeed.

4. Offer mentorship
Your expertise is valuable and can help others achieve their real estate investing goals. Offer mentorship to others in your network by giving advice and sharing your experiences to help them work through their problems.

5. Be gracious
Let the ones who impact your life most know how much you appreciate them and their help. Write a thank you note or send a small gift. After all, without your network of people to rely on, your investing career will go nowhere fast.

6. Keep track of your connections
Over the course of your investing career, you’ll come in contact with hundreds of people. It’s important you devise some sort of tracking system that contains all the pertinent information for each connection you make.

📚 Just because it’s easy to read books on digital devices doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have a library to read and work in at home.

🍃 Use the tips above to create an inspiring, relaxing home library in any room.

1. Don’t Be Afraid To Go Bold

Paint the bookcases in your library a bold color like black (opt for a lacquered finish to really make a statement) and accent the shelves with metallic pieces for a dramatic effect.

2. Give Existing Bookcases A Facelift

Take out a few or all of the shelves and build a custom insert to liven up space. If you aren’t the DIY type, hire a cabinet maker to build the insert for you.

3. Turn Any Space Into Your Library

Think about shelving that’s unique and colors that make you feel good. As you’re decorating the space, don’t forget to add personal touches like knick-knacks and the like to make the room your own.

👉Clutter happens.

✨If you’re tired of looking at it, though, try these creative storage hacks.

1. Tidy Those Bookshelves
If you have bookshelves in your home, it’s the ideal place to store things you don’t want others to see.

2. Store Chargers And Other Cables
To remedy this headache, coil each cord into its own empty toilet paper roll and then toss the rolls into a basket or drawer for safekeeping.

3. Hide Clutter In The Playroom
Install a shower curtain rod above a shelving unit and slide a coordinating shower curtain across the clutter to instantly hide it and make the room appear tidy.

4. Utilize The Space Underneath
You can declutter a room quite easily if you utilize the space underneath the furniture.

5. Storage In The Laundry Room
The trick is to use coordinating baskets and/or bins to organize everything from dog food to trash bags.

💸 Read on to discover four easy ways to save up for the down payment on your next investment property.

1. Use The 50/30/20 Rule
Spend 50 percent of your income on mandatory expenses such as rent, student loans, etc.

Use 30 percent of your income for discretionary spending. This includes things like your Netflix subscription, gym membership, and any other entertainment you enjoy. A budgeting app can alert you when you get close to your 30-percent limit, so you know when to dial back your shopping habit.

Finally, put the last 20 percent of your income into a savings account and don’t touch it.

2. Develop A Timeline To Acquire The Property You Want
If you’ve decided you want to be the owner of an investment property worth $100,000 in two years’ time, figure out how much you’ll need to put aside each month to reach the $20,000 down payment amount and then get busy.

3. Automate Your Budget
Set up fixed/mandatory bills to come out of your account on the same day. This way, you’ll be able to see exactly how much they are. Next, set up an automatic transfer of 20 percent of your income into an account designated especially for the down payment on an investment property. Anything left in your regular account is what you can spend on anything you want.

4. Get Rid Of Things That Don’t Add Value To Your Life
Take a look at your expenses and determine the things that don’t add much value to your life or the things you can do without. This might include magazine subscriptions or the highest cable TV package, for example. Cutting back or doing away with these “extra” expenses can help you put more money aside for that investment property you dream of.

💖 These quick one-day DIY projects will help you spruce up your home while feeling accomplished at the same time.

1. A Cork Bulletin Board
All you need to do is find a picture frame you like, arrange your corks to cover the picture area, and voila!

2. A Blanket Ladder
Make an elegant-looking blanket ladder using just an old wooden ladder and some paint.

3. Reupholstered Outdoor Furniture
Simply get yourself enough thick material rated for outdoor use to cover the size cushions you have. Cut it to fit comfortably around the cushion with enough overlapping on the bottom to attach it to the pad.

4. A New Front Door Look
Pay attention to the type of door you have (metal, wood, etc.) and get the right paint for the job.

5. Personalized Address Sign
Get yourself a large monogram letter for your last name and strategically attach the numbers of your address to it.

🍲 The kitchen is the heart of many homes. Keeping it sparkling clean can be a challenge for even the biggest clean freaks.

⬇️ The following tips give you an arsenal of cleaning hacks that will certainly make your kitchen a cleaner place.

1. Use Vinegar To Remove Hard Water Stains
To remove hard water stains from a stainless steel sink and/or faucets, dampen a sponge or cloth with white vinegar and wipe.

2. Get Rid Of Fruit Flies With Ease
You can eradicate the fruit flies easily by combining the power of lemon with the heat of your oven. Before going to bed, place two halves of a lemon on the top rack of your oven.

3. Clean Gunky Kitchen Cabinets
You can get rid of greasy, grimy buildup easily with a solution of one part vegetable oil to two parts baking soda. Work the paste into the wood using a sponge or cloth and wipe any excess away.

4. Bring Back A Porcelain Sink’s Glory
Cut a lemon in half and sprinkle baking soda in the sink. Use half of the lemon to scrub the baking soda over the sink’s surface. Rinse well with warm water.

5. Disinfect A Garbage Disposal
Freshen up a smelly garbage disposal by dropping a few frozen white vinegar cubes down and turning it on. Run fresh water to rinse it all down.

6. Brighten Kitchen Grout
Bring back grout’s bright white by rubbing it with a paste made from baking soda and water. Let it sit for a few minutes then spray it with white vinegar. After the fizzing stops, wipe it all clean.

7. Clean The Air, Too
While it’s simmering, you’ll smell the vinegar, but once you turn it off, the vinegar smell, along with any other funky smells, will be gone!

🤔 Housecleaning can be overwhelming.

😉 To help you keep your house clean without all the stress, here are several cleaning ideas that’ll make the job easier.

1. Clean Your Equipment
Having clean equipment to work with makes your job so much easier and you’ll know your house is truly clean when you’re done.

2. Dust The Light Fixtures
If your living room is looking gloomier than usual, it might be because the light fixtures need dusting.

3. Clean Bookshelves
Remove everything from the shelves and place it aside. Use a feather duster or a dry microfiber cloth to remove surface dust.

4. Refresh Framed Pictures
Give your home a completely clean look by cleaning the framed pictures on the wall.

5. Wipe The Walls And Trim
Taking the time to get rid of cobwebs and dust on the walls, though, can make your space look and feel brighter.
