7  2018 Home Design TrendsWhile we love to read about design trends, Americans don’t live by them. Each year a number of experts treat us to their predictions anyway, however, and this year is no exception. Here are a few trends that may have you rethinking your surroundings.

In fact, more color throughout the home may be on tap as well with large florals not limited to traditional or tropical decorating. Stainless and/or white sinks are giving way to dark-colored vessels of concrete, stone, and copper, while trough and bucket sinks grace the new “modern farmhouse” look. In fact, Hou... 02/27/2018

 Tampa Bay Area Home Buyers and Their Earnest Money Safety Net  When a young Tampa Bay area home buyer first hears the term “earnest money deposit,” thewords alone pretty much explain the general concept. But I make sure to clarify the details before w e begin to put together our offer. The purpose of the earnest money deposit is to assure the seller that this is a buyer who is seriousabout completing the sale.
