If you are considering starting a remodel project before listing your property, here are a couple of tips to make sure you are getting the most for your money.

Fixing Things First
Concentrate on areas of your home that need repair rather than remodeling. Likely a home inspector hired by the Buyer will discover any problem areas i.e. leaks, peeling siding, windows not closing, etc. If repairs are necessary, Buyers are given the opportunity to renegotiate the price. Sometimes these even scare the Buyer away! The best case scenario is to ensure that the home is in proper working order.

Don't Remodel Pieces
If you are considering remodeling a piece of your home, this can draw attention to the other parts of your home that may need some attention. Frankly.…

Domus Pacis Family Respite is a nonprofit organization based here in Summit County.  Their mission is to make it possible for families that are on a harrowing medical journey, to break away from the everyday struggles to enjoy the beauty of Summit County.  Donated homes in the area, as well as the kindness of the local businesses and a team of devoted volunteers make this program a reality for many.   Having homes available for the families is only possible because of homeowners such as you.  Domus Pacis works with each homeowner individually and does not request that your home be donated during peak weeks—simply put, if your home or condo would be sitting empty, they are simply looking to put it to use.

Hard to find a more glorious way to celebrate snow and winter - than to watch the progress of the dozens of artists who are making snow sculpture this week in Breckenridge.

Locals who volunteer for the International Snow Sculpture Championships know what those who are here all week also know, that seeing the process from start to finish has a snowball effect.  By today, Friday, like the Fridays of each year's event past, the sculptures roll in all directions and become dramatically different from one another.  Visitors to the site, tonight, will have the opportunity to watch as the teams make the final decisions - those details that are best made in the cold of the night, for on Friday night, everyone can work as long as they like.

The work ends Saturday,…
