Curb Appeal: Column Mount Mailboxes

Most of the beautiful houses that I saw in our neighborhood have column mount mailboxes in their front lawn. It looks fantastic and adds the curb appeal of their property. Just two months ago, we put up a new mailbox when my husband runs over the old one. Actually, I was kinda glad that it happened because the old mailbox was totally outdated and was leaning to the ground. It was awkward and I know that the mailman was glad when we put up a new mailbox.

Do you have plans of changing your mailbox? Sprucing a decorative locking column mailbox makes a great impression on the property. It definitely makes the house looks elegant and inviting. Adding colorful garden decors, unique doorbell buttons, beautiful mailboxes, plant boxes with amazing designs and painting the driveway makes a huge difference to the curb appeal of the property.

If you think you have the hideous property in the block then, add a simple element. It doesn't have to be big and expensive to make your property appealing. Take that old mailbox and put up a stone column mailbox and I am sure that your lawn will have a big transformation. Have a DIY project and the mailbox is one of the easiest elements to put up.

Home Buying Experience

Tomorrow, we have a scheduled meeting with our realtor and we will be viewing some of the home properties nearby the beach area. For months, we are constantly searching for a good location and a nice home to buy because we wanted to have more rooms and big yard. We plan to pay cash since the housing market here in Florida dive down to rock bottom. It is very convenient for us to purchase the house in cash than pay the mortgage every month. Besides, we are only looking for affordable property. How about you? Are you planning to buy your dream home? If you have the means to buy a new home, you should do it now and take advantage of the current prices of the housing market. The buyer has the advantage to find a good deal because there are so many available houses listed under foreclosure or short sales. If you have an excellent credit scores, you will never be denied for a mortgage loan.

The facility Management

We bought this condo unit about a year ago and so far, the Facility Management is doing great serving our community. In fact, they responded to our complaint which is about a small crack on the exterior side of the wall, nearby the window. We wanted it fix right away because when it rains, water makes it as a passage way. They send out workers, fix it and paint it too. So far, our community is well taken care of such as the landscape of the property and the pool area. Our community is well lighted creating a safe neighborhood at night. The manager and other employees are very accommodating with our complaints.

How about in your area? Do they provide solution to the maintenance issues in your community? If they do not then maybe, your community needs to hire another facility management company who is competent in the job. Your community has the right to change your facility management if they cannot do the services which they promise. Each one of you, pay the exact amount every month so that facility management does their job exactly. For more ideas, visit the link above.
