Did you know your ceiling fans should rotate counterclockwise during the summer? This creates a cooling breeze that can make a room feel several degrees cooler, helping you stay comfortable while reducing the strain on your air conditioner.
While you're at it, take a few minutes to dust the blades and check that the fan is running smoothly! It's a simple task that can improve comfort, lower energy costs, and help your home feel its best all season long.

Closing costs are the fees and expenses paid at the end of a real estate transaction. They can include things like lender fees, title insurance, taxes, attorney fees, prepaid insurance, real estate commissions and appraisal costs. Both buyers and sellers typically have closing costs, though the amounts and responsibilities can vary depending on the transaction. These costs are separate from your down payment, which is why it’s important to budget for them early in the process.
