I had no idea that heating and cooling systems had become so expensive until I had a problem with mine. Living in Jacksonville, air conditioning is especially important. The summers are brutally hot and humid. Temperatures frequently climb into the triple digits. While the winters tend to be mild, conditions can plummet into the mid
When I first began seeing billboards, hearing advertisements and coming aware of cash home buyers, I paid little attention. I assumed it was risky and high-pressure with a low offer. It wasn’t until I was looking to sell a property that I found out more about it. Located in Denton, Texas, the home was a
Jacksonville, Florida, is a truly beautiful place to live. The winters are mild, with temperatures rarely dropping below forty degrees. I love the spring and fall seasons and don’t mind the heat and humidity of summer. The tropical foliage is exotic and colorful. Jacksonville also provides access to the St. John’s river and over twenty
I did everything as dumb as possible. I met a guy in Jacksonville, Florida and after a few months, we bought a house together. We both figured marriage was right around the corner. It made sense to buy a house and tie ourselves financially. Well a year later we never got married and wanted to
I was not aware of the very real threat of a dryer fire until recently. They are more common than I realized. According to the National Fire Protection Association, an average of nearly sixteen thousand fires are caused by dryers and washing machines every year. Dryer fires cause hundreds of injuries and more than one
I wanted money in hand that I could use to get a modern arena as well as things for my children My hubby is in the military as well as is constantly on the move. I should have known better. When my friend and I first got together he got a deployment, I moved as
A few years ago, I bought a home for the purpose of creating a rental income. I invested into a brand new family room and bathroom. I devoted hours to landscaping, painting and cleaning. I took my time interviewing potential renters and was very triumphant with my choice, however shortly after the tenants moved in,
When I heard that I’d inherited a house in Jacksonville, Florida, I was excited. Although I hadn’t seen my Uncle in over thirty years, I was his only living relative. Living in the northeastern area of the country, I was very interested in a property down south. I imagined escaping the long, cold winters and
I bought a apartment in Dallas around fifteen years ago, and over the years, I have gradually made improvements! Energy Star rated windows, insulation plus a new Heating & A/C system have absolutely helped with comfort, air quality plus energy efficiency, but modern appliances elevate convenience. Paint plus landscaping have benefited curb appeal! About two
Jacksonville real estate companies are very different to work for when it comes to selling real estate, that’s for sure. I have been selling real estate for a long time now and I’ve done it in many different areas across the country. I have found that when I am looking for local home buyers who
The Struggles of Being a Landlord Owning an apartment building in Southern New England can be a smart investment, but sometimes it turns into more stress than it is worth.

As one of the logistics specialists for the largest home improvement store in the country, I am constantly trying to figure out the best ways to move our pallet rack freight from one place to another. We have to open new stores on a regular basis, but we also have to do resets and repairs
I moved to Jacksonville, Florida, a little over seven years ago. I was delighted to leave behind the long winters of the northern part of the country. I’d had enough of sub zero temperatures, bitter wind chill and endless snowfall. I traded my heavy boots, wool coat and ice scraper for sandals, sunblock and shorts.
I have lived in a house that was too big for me for years. I think I had grand ideas of meeting the one and having a giant family. I lived in a place that had five bedrooms and three bathrooms. There was a gym, giant living room, kitchen, den, and an attached porch area.
Recently I needed to transport some product that was very fragile. I looked at a whole bunch of moving options but nothing seemed secure enough. Not only did I want to prevent theft, but I also wanted to make sure nothing broke in transit. I started hunting for the right style of moving and I
