Maximizing your cooling power, without breaking the bank!

Memorial Day was the unofficial kick off to the summer season and the temperatures are here to prove it!

Here are some tips for how to keep your utility bills from getting out of control while you try to stay cool!

• Remove debris from around your outside air conditioning unit. Look for grass, weeds, dirt and leaves.
• Change the air filters in your home regularly.
• Use your ceiling fans and make sure they are blowing the right way. The air should be blowing down.
• Close the registers in unused rooms to keep from cooling unoccupied space.
• Use a programmable thermostat to regulate the temperature for when you're home or away.
• Make use of drapes and blinds to keep out some of the sunlight.
• When replacing light bulbs, choose LED lights that give off less heat.

New Home Sales Up in April

There's more good news for the housing market and new homes in particular.

According to HUD and the US Census Bureau, sales of new, single-family homes rose by 2.3 percent in April. Regionally, new home sales rose 3 percent in the South.

A quote from an article by the National Association of Home Builders reinforces this positive message. “Today’s report is further evidence of the gradual, consistent improvement we have been seeing in housing market conditions over the past year,” noted NAHB Senior Economist Robert Denk. “We’re now about half-way back to what could be considered a full recovery, and we do expect to see continual, solid gains in both starts and sales of new homes going forward.”

Interest rates remain low and house prices are trending upwards and inventory remains tight.  Now is the time to buy!
