Downsizing Your Home and Your Lifestyle-Part 4

Downsizing  your lifestyle  is not just for retirees and empty nesters, it is also for the smart homeowner.

 Here are some key points to consider:

  • A lower mortgage payment will increase your cash flow
  • Real estate taxes are lower on a lower valued home
  • Utilities are reduced when you decrease your square footage

Listen to my lastest video for further insight.

Digital Downsizing | Forest Ridge Davie, Florida

As technology continually advances, there are many things that can be digitized for downsizing. This will clear your life of a lot of clutter, making your home more inviting and you ready for a smaller home if necessary.

Do you have an extensive library of books? Downsizing your library to those same books in EBook format will save tons of space.
Your music CDs that are cluttering your room can be ripped to MP3 format and downloaded onto an MP3 player. (more…)

Sweeping Out What You Do Not Need.

 

Downsizing your home includes cleaning out what you do not need anymore.

Below is a list of ideas for you to peruse:

1. Most hardcopy books have now been digitized to Ebook format. Getting rid of your books will help with downsizing.

2. If you have anything in your home that you haven’t touched in years – toss it.

3. Take account of your furniture. If you don’t really use all of it any more – sell it.

4. More downsizing can be done if you digitize all of your photograph albums so that the scanned images fit on a few DVDs or CDs.
