Thompson Tip #18
What is the one thing you think is unchangeable about your home? What if we could fix that for you?
Thompson Tip #19
ROI
How much you enjoy your home on a daily basis is also return on your investment.
Trust that you have good judgment when you make major remodeling decisions. Resale value only matters on the day you sign a purchase agreement. On all other days it is more or less academic. Over time, real estate increases in value in a beautiful way.
Thompson Tip #20
Remember, you are one of the Good Guys. Banks like to loan you money. If you don’t borrow money, then we salute you!

The 80 Minute Fall Home
 Maintenance Checklist
- Buy a case of furnace filters (12) and replace it each month.
- Deep clean the inside of the house to reduce allergies. Hire a pro if needed.
- Be sure gutters & downspouts are clear of leaves & other debris.
- Visually inspect the outside of the house & inside of the house down in the basement. If “critters” have access to your home, stop 'em w/ caulk & spray foam.
- Be sure your attic vents (lower and upper) are not covered with insulation. Ice dams on your roof are often caused by poorly performing insulation & improper ventilation in the attic.
- Close & latch every window in the house (Keep count, you’ll be shocked).
- Un-hook and store your garden hoses.
- Make your “Honey Do” list of BIG and small projects you need Thompson Remodeling to handle for you. If you’d feel more comfortable judging someone else, do the same at your friend’s house.

Your home is an asset worth protecting. As you are making your Honey Do list, think about what really bugs you about your home? Does it reflect its ultimate potential? Is it in saleable condition to compete in a market like today’s?
