Fall Harmony: Five Essential Home Maintenance Tips for the Season

As the lively colors of summer fade into the crisp beauty of fall, it's time for homeowners to prepare their abodes for the coming season. Embracing the changing leaves also means embracing a new set of maintenance tasks.

Here are five indispensable tips to ensure your home is ready for fall's embrace:

Gutter Glory: Falling leaves create a picturesque landscape, but they can wreak havoc on your gutters. Regularly clean gutters and downspouts to prevent clogs and potential water damage during autumn showers. Consider installing gutter guards to make this task less frequent.
Hearty HVAC Check: Your heating system is about to step into the spotlight. Schedule a professional inspection to ensure it's in optimal condition. Clean or replace filters and consider a programmable thermostat to regulate indoor temperatures efficiently.
Weatherproofing Wonders: Keep the chilly drafts at bay by sealing gaps around windows and doors. Applying weather stripping and caulking not only enhances comfort but also lowers energy bills by preventing heat loss.
Lawn Love: Fall is the perfect time to nurture your lawn. Aerate the soil, overseed to fill in bare spots, and fertilize to strengthen roots before winter comes. Proper lawn care now ensures a lush and healthy yard when springtime arrives.
Chimney Charm: If you're lucky enough to have a fireplace, make sure it's ready for cozy evenings. Schedule a chimney sweep to remove creosote buildup, which can pose a fire hazard. Also, inspect the chimney exterior for any signs of damage.

North Mississippi Avenue

Nestled within the lively Boise-Eliot neighborhood of Portland, Oregon, North Mississippi Avenue stands as a testament to the city's eclectic and creative spirit. This historic street is a captivating blend of old and new, where vintage architecture harmoniously mingles with trendy boutiques, cafes, and art galleries.

The avenue's unique character draws both locals and visitors alike. Cobblestone sidewalks lead the way to an array of independently-owned shops, showcasing local artisans' creations. From bakeries wafting with the aroma of freshly baked bread to quaint bookstores inviting literary exploration, the avenue offers a sensory journey through Portland's cultural tapestry.

Come nightfall, North Mississippi Avenue transforms into a hub of live music, with cozy pubs and music venues filling the air with melodies. The Last Thursday event, a monthly art walk, turns the avenue into an open-air gallery, where artists showcase their work, further enriching the street's artistic vibe.
Intriguing, ever-evolving, and deeply rooted in the community, North Mississippi Avenue stands as a microcosm of Portland's artistic essence, inviting all to immerse themselves in its enchanting offerings.

Attentive, Communicative, Helpful, and Kind

"I cannot recommend Claire and her team enough to anyone and everyone I know. I had a complicated sale that increased in complexity and approach with time. Claire did not skip a beat. She put me at ease whenever I had questions, was more than willing to talk things out when needed, and gave objective recommendations – I completely trusted her through the entire process. She and her team are attentive, communicative, helpful, and kind. They went above and beyond in assisting in many unexpected areas of the sale. Not to mention, I loved being able to support a small business that engages with and supports the community. I would undoubtedly use them again for the purchase or sale of a house." — Hilary P.
