Want to lower your monthly HOA fees?

Homeowner Association (HOA) fees vary drastically from house to house, but the average is usually somewhere between $100 and $1,000 per month.

And while most people accept these fees at face value… There are some things that can be done to lower your monthly payments.

How is it done?

Here’s what we recommend!

Ask To See The Budget — It’s a homeowner’s right to review the HOA budget. Ask for a copy and review it. You can ask questions as they come up.

Review HOA Contracts — Many HOAs have outdated and overpriced contracts for the services they hire out for on behalf of homeowners. If possible, it’s worth reviewing and renegotiating these contracts (this is easier if you’re on the HOA board!).

Join The HOA Board — It might take a little extra time to get approved, but being on the HOA board will give you much more insight and control over the budget.

Find New Contractors — If you think that a contractor is overpriced, it’s worth finding a new contractor to lower costs.

Renegotiate Insurance — Insurance is a big part of HOA payments. Whenever your policy gets renewed, prepare to renegotiate terms with your carrier to lower your monthly payment, or investigate other insurance providers.

Property Management Fees — Property management is a large part of most HOA fees. How much is your HOA paying and is it a fair amount? It’s worth reviewing and it’s maybe worth renegotiating.

Hope that helps you lower your monthly HOA payments.

The events of the past couple of years have made it so a lot of people are now working from home.

There are a lot of benefits, of course — you can work at your own pace and on your own schedule.

But it also means you need a place to work…

Somewhere that’s free of distractions and allows you to focus.

So we thought we’d pop by and offer some tips for creating a home office if you’ve got the space. Here they are!

Find Quiet Space — More than anything, the space chosen should make it easy to focus. Maybe that means using the guest bedroom or the garage or the shed outside. Whatever the case, do what you gotta do to create some peace and quiet.

Buy Ergonomic Furniture — Ergonomic furniture (that is, furniture that improves posture) is typically a little more expensive, but it’s worth every penny. Spending a lot of time sitting makes it 100% worth it to get furniture that’s comfortable and supportive.

Eliminate Distractions — Distractions are the bane of productivity. So when creating a home office, eliminating them is top priority. Maybe that means soundproofing the room, silencing your cell phone, or having less stuff in the home office.

Make it Fun — It’s your office so have fun with it! What can be added that would make the space special and reflective of you? What could be included that would make it exciting to work there every day?

Hope that helps with creating an awesome home office.

Refinancing your mortgage is a great way to benefit from the equity you’ve built and lower your monthly payment.

But there are also some drawbacks.

At Bumble Bee Properties, we’ve worked in real estate in North Texas for quite some time. And we’ve learned a thing or two about buying, selling, and yes… even refinancing homes.

So SHOULD YOU refinance your mortgage?

Here are some considerations…

Lower Payments — Perhaps the biggest benefit to refinancing a property (and why most homeowners do so) is because it saves them money on their monthly payments. But that’s only the case if there’s quite a bit of equity in the property.

Extra Interest — Keep in mind that by refinancing the mortgage, you might be adding on some extra years to your loan and thereby adding some extra interest that you’ll have to pay over the life of the loan.

Loan Term — When refinancing, the borrower chooses either a 15-year or a 30-year term. That decision will have a huge impact on the monthly payment.

Change Loan Type — You can also change the type of loan you’ve got (since you’re essentially getting a new loan). This can be beneficial if you’re opting for a loan with a lower interest rate.

Ultimately, the choice is yours. If you’re planning to live in the property for quite a while longer and you want to lower your monthly payment, it might not be such a bad idea.

Or if you want to sell your home for a fair cash price, give us a call at 469-281-6693 — we can buy as-is and we’ll even pay all closing costs!

Want to remove a tree that’s on your property?

While many trees are beautiful and even desirable, not all trees fall into that category — some fast-growing trees behave more like weeds, with invasive and aggressive roots capable of causing structural damage to your home.

At Bumble Bee Properties, we’ve been working in real estate in North Texas for quite some time… and we’ve seen a lot of homes that were damaged by trees.

Here are just a few trees that can cause problems…

White Ash
Poplar
American Elm
Silver Maple
Weeping Willow
Oak

So… how do you remove a tree from your property?

Here are your options…

For Smaller Trees — For a small tree, you can cut it down and remove the stump by digging it up, using a chemical remover, or burning it.

For Medium Trees — For a medium-sized tree, you might be able to cut it down on your own, but make sure you take all the necessary precautions. Then you can remove the stump in the same way you would a smaller tree.

For Large Trees — For a large tree, we highly recommend hiring an expert to help… otherwise you could do damage to yourself and/or your property.

Hope that helps!

And if you or someone you know wants to sell their house as-is for cash, give us a call at 469-281-6693 — we can make a fair cash offer and buy property within two weeks. You pick the closing date!

Are you working with one of the best real estate agents in North Texas?

Or… are you NOT working with one of the best?

Obviously, this question matters because a high-quality real estate agent will help get more money for your home (and sell faster) while a low-quality real estate agent will do just the opposite — less money and it’ll take longer to sell.

Well, at Bumble Bee Properties, we’ve been working in real estate in North Texas for quite some time — and we’ve collaborated with a lot of real estate agents here.

Here are a few things that separate top real estate agents from the rest…

They’re Not Desperate — Top real estate agents aren’t desperate for clients. They are willing to help but they’re not going to beg for new listings.

Referrals — When a person gets referred to a real estate agent, then there’s a good chance they’re the real deal… because other people liked them enough to make the recommendation.

Kind & Helpful — A real estate agent should go above and beyond for the people they are representing. That’s their job, after all. If an agent is not kind and helpful, find a new agent.

Professional Listings — The agent’s listings should look professional and pristine. They might even hire a photographer and work with a copywriter to create outstanding listings.

How does your realtor compare?

If you want to skip the real estate agent altogether, give us a call at 469-281-6693 and we’ll make you a fair cash offer within 48 hours. We can close in as little as two weeks and we’ll even pay all closing costs!

Want to add some plants to your house?

Doing so can make your home feel more cozy and bright, making it a GREAT idea!

But of course, some plants are much more difficult to take care of than others…
..especially if you’re new to the business of keeping plants alive.

So we thought we’d stop by and help out with a few plants that are practically impossible to kill — these will bring some nature into your home… even if you forget to water them sometimes ;-)

Here they are!

Paddle Plant — a succulent that favors bright light and doesn’t mind going without water for a while.

Lady Palm — a palm that only needs indirect sunlight.

String of Pearls — needs bright, indirect sunlight and water once a week.

Albuca Frizzle Sizzle — easy to care for and smells great.

Peperomia — a colorful plant that grows great indoors and needs minimal water.

Pothos — a trailing vine that can withstand the whims of just about any caretaker.

Aglaonema Chinese Evergreen — have a habit of overwatering your plants? This one can take it.

Jade Plant — since this plant retains water in its round leaves, it can live without attention for more than a month sometimes.

Asparagus Fern — a fluffy plant that tolerates far more abuse than most ferns.

Chinese Money Plant — grows best in the shade (does not produce money, unfortunately).

There you go! Now you can add some easy-to-keep-alive plants to your indoor decorations. Hope this helps!

Trying to figure out which types of doors to install in your house?

The good news is that there are a lot of options — dutch doors, french doors, bifold doors, hinged doors, sliding doors, pocket doors, and so on.

But the bad news is the same: there are A LOT of options… and so it’s hard to choose.

At Bumble Bee Properties, we’ve been making real-estate related decisions for quite a while now and, sometimes, those decisions have included which type of door to install in a property.

So we thought we’d pop by with some door-based advice.

Here’s a breakdown of the options based on door material!

Wood — Wood is the long-standing most popular choice for exterior doors, but some people are also using it indoors as well now. They’re easy to paint or tint, and they fit almost any style or decor. They’re also quite durable.

Steel — Steel doors are super durable and require very little upkeep to maintain. They also offer a modern aesthetic and are typically less expensive than wood doors.

Fiberglass — Like steel, fiberglass doors are super durable and require very little upkeep. They also provide good insulation and are resistant to dents. And they can be designed to match almost any aesthetic.

Aluminum — Aluminum doors are popular amongst people who want a modern aesthetic. They’re also very versatile and can be placed in different settings as well as work as exterior or interior doors.

Flush — Made from fiberboard or plywood, flush doors are very affordable and provide decent durability. They’re great for bathrooms or utility rooms.

Hope that helps!

And if you or someone you know wants to sell a property for a fair cash price, give us a call at 469-281-6693. We can make a fair cash offer within 48 hours, buy as-is, and close in as little as two weeks!

Installing new floors?

Trying to decide which TYPE of floors to install?

At Bumble Bee Properties, we’ve worked in real estate for quite some time. And naturally, we’ve had to make all sorts of decisions about properties… INCLUDING what types of floors to install to fit both budget and aesthetic.

Since there are a lot of options, we thought we’d drop by and give you some pointers.

Here’s a breakdown of the choices!

Laminate — Laminate flooring is sturdy and resists warping, as well as scuffs or scratches. Aesthetically, it can match almost any style. Cost is between $1 and $7 per square foot.

Hardwood — Hardwood flooring is beautiful, long-lasting, and can go with any decor. It’s susceptible to moisture, however, and costs as much as $14 per square foot.

Vinyl — Vinyl flooring is inexpensive and very resilient. It only costs $1 to $5 per square foot.

Bamboo — Bamboo flooring has similar beauty to hardwood flooring. It’s durable and made from a renewable source. It costs $3 to $8 per square foot.

Ceramic — Ceramic tiles are great for kitchens and bathrooms. They come in a lot of different colors and styles. Cost is between $1 to $20 per square foot.

Linoleum — Linoleum is an eco-friendly choice. It’s also very durable and comes in a lot of vibrant colors. Cost is between $2 to $5 per square foot.

Hope that helps!

And if you or anyone you know wants to sell a property for a fair cash price, give us a call at 469-281-6693. We can close in as little as two weeks and we’ll even pay all closing costs!

Sometimes, getting your house clean is easier than KEEPING your house clean (especially if you have pets or kids).

We get it.

It’s the law of entropy at work — over time, all things veer toward chaos.

But some people are able to keep their houses clean so easily (at least it seems that way)...

How do they do it?

Here are some tips!

Get Rid of Stuff — Sometimes, there’s just too much stuff. Getting rid of stuff is one of the easiest ways to keep a house more clean… because then there’s less stuff to clean up!

Clean Before Sitting — What’s the first thing you do when you get home? Get in the habit of putting away your shoes, keys, glasses, mail, and other stuff right after you get home.

Make a Place — Everything in the house should have a designated place. If there’s too much stuff to make places for, that probably means some stuff needs to go.

Clean As You Go — The best thing to do is get in the habit of cleaning so that it’s not a once-a-week ritual, but an everyday sort of thing. Clean the kitchen after or as dinner is being made. Do a little bit of laundry every day. Sweep and vacuum every day. And so on. By doing a little bit everyday, there’s never a lot to do all at once.

And if you or someone you know wants to sell a property for a fair cash price, give us a call at (469) 281-6693. We can make a fair cash offer within 48 hours, buy as-is, and close in as little as two weeks!

Trying to keep your home at a comfortable temperature without spending an arm and a leg on heating or air conditioning?

Well, while nothing is quite as effective as air conditioning or gas-powered heating, there are still a lot of things one can do to lower that energy bill.

Here are some ideas!

Programmable Thermostat — It might be a little spendy upfront, but using a programmable thermostat will save you money and help with keeping your house at a good temperature.

Close Your Flue — If you don’t want to let heat escape the house, then close the chimney flue. That let’s a ton of heat escape out the top of a house.

Move Furniture — It sounds like a no-brainer, but make sure there is no furniture blocking the flow of air into and out of the room (vents, etc.). That’ll waste money and make any HVAC system less effective.

Use a Door Sweep — Is hot or cold air seeping beneath your doors? Consider installing a draft-defeating nylon door sweep to stop that from happening. It’s super cheap and easy to install.

Use Your Drapes — You can open your drapes to let in some free solar heat. And you can close the drapes to keep things cool. This is one of the easiest ways to increase or decrease the temperature inside a house.

Hope that helps!
