When the weather outside is frightful BUT the fire is so delightful…

Tis the season to be jolly, however when the bills come at the end of the month, you’ll have to account for more than the holiday shopping sprees this time of year. The fire may be delightful, but these innovative, beautiful, low-maintenance replicas of Santa’s portal into our homes now turn on by a switch rather than a match, a newspaper and a lot of lighter fluid.  So, how can we keep our money from going up in smoke?

When I was growing up my parents put a thick plastic cover over the windows every winter.  Fortunately there are other tips and tricks to keep the heat in and the cold out while still being able to live the modern-day life.

Majority of Americans Say Buying a Home is a Good Decision – Daily Real Estate News

Majority of Americans: Buying a Home Is a Good Decision
RISMEDIA, November 27, 2010–Despite the continuing challenges facing the U.S., nearly eight out of 10 respondents believe buying a home is a good financial decision, according to NAR’s eighth annual Housing Opportunity Pulse Survey.

The survey, which measures how affordable housing issues affect consumers, also found job security concerns to be the highest in eight years of sampling, with 70 percent of Americans saying that job layoffs and unemployment are a big problem in their area; eight in 10 cite these issues as a barrier to homeownership. The telephone survey of 1,209 urban and suburban adults in the top 25 metropolitan statistical areas was conducted for NAR by American Strategies and Myers Research & Strategic Services for NAR’s Housing Opportunity Program.

Celebrating 15 Years in Business | Woodland Homes | Huntsville Home Builder

Woodland Homes celebrated 15 years in business on February 2, 2010. Mike and Melissa Friday founded the company in 1995. Since then, they have grown from a small building company building just a few homes a year, to a home builder that has built homes for thousands of Madison County residents. We are grateful to each person who has helped this company get to our 15 year mark. Without our clients, homeowners, Realtor friends, subcontractors, staff, and community support, this company could not have become what it is today. We look forward to building dream homes for many more Madison County Residents! 

Susan, Mike, Melissa & Jeannie celebrate 15 years

Woodland Homes Townhomes | Madison County Home Builder | Woodland Homes of Huntsville

Woodland Homes offers 3 great townhome communities in Madison and Huntsville, Alabama. We take great pride in building townhomes that offer homeowners stress-free living, with little maintenance required. Townhome communities include year-round lawn maintenance. They are also built with architectural features that are made to last, such as 30-year architectural shingles, energy-efficient windows, Tumbled Old World Brick and Turk Stone accents, fire-rated party walls and much, much more. Townhome communities include Woodmill Trace, Overland Cove and Indian Creek Townhomes.

We’re not only committed to building townhomes that offer low-maintenance living, though. We also want to make sure that our townhomes still represent the style and elegance that Woodland Homes has taken great pride in offering homeowners for 15 years. Our townhome communities offer Wellborn cabinetry, granite counter tops, hardwood floors, wood-burning fireplaces, and custom landscape design packages.
