As 2013 wraps into a close and we all ready ourselves for
celebrating the season with family, friends and loved ones, I wanted to take a
moment to thank all of my clients, past and present, for another wonderful
year. Whether we’re currently working together on buying North Shore real estate or you’ve been living on the North Shore for a while now, I take an immense pride
in helping my clients find the home of their dreams in the community that works
for them. Chicago’s North Shore
offers the best of many worlds to its residents and visitors – Safe, desirable
communities, award-winning school districts, a convenient location very near to
the city of Chicago and public transportation and, of course, a wide array of
dining, shopping, entertainment, arts and culture that make the quality of life
here outstanding. North Shore real estate has always been highly coveted and I enjoy not only helping my clients
achieve their home ownership goals but also introducing new residents to all of
what our area has to offer.
Many of us living on the North Shore will be opening our homes and hearts to guests today for
the Christmas holiday. Here are just a few basic tips to keep in mind when
preparing your home for an influx of loved ones and guests:
-Make sure high-traffic areas that you know will see a lot
of foot traffic today are de-cluttered and ready for guests. This means foyers,
bathrooms, hallways and living areas should be neat and organized so guests
have plenty of room to sit, stand, talk, mingle and enjoy themselves.
-Use a large rug or welcome mat inside the front door to
prevent mud, snow and other debris from being tracked from the outside into
your home.
-Child-proof your home, if necessary. This includes moving
things like cleaning solutions, chemicals, lit candles, medications and other
potentially dangerous items to areas where little ones can’t get to them. If
you’re expecting youngsters in your home today, ask parents to bring baby gates
and/or childproof cabinet locks for added peace of mind.
Chicago’s North Shore
is a fantastic place to call home, and I hope that all of my clients, friends
and readers have a wonderful holiday. Whether you’ll be buying or selling North Shore real estate in the new
year, feel free to contact me with
any questions. A very happy and safe Christmas to you and yours!
