@VistSpokane recently Tweeted an interesting article from the Spokesman Review that got me thinking… Having fun doesn’t have to be expensive, it doesn’t even have to cost anything.

The article  discusses both indoor and outdoor activities one or all can do all within the confines of our great city, and all for free (or darn close).  My favorites are Riverside State park (it’s been since high school that I was out there, and I can’t tell you why I’ve waited so long to return – I love it there), and the Garland Theater cheap movies & all you can eat popcorn (I’m not very popular at all you can eat places).

I’m reminded of simpler times – that small never-to-be-forgotten time in your life between school and gainful employment where everything you did was on a budget.  Thinking back – I had a lot of fun, and I’d forgotten about all these great places we have right in our back door. Take a peek at the list and head out to do something fun today!

This made me laugh, felt like sharing it.  The sales tactics aren’t my style, but the humor is!

As a recent article suggests, many home owners can take advantage of  great tax incentives without participating in today’s market.  Although it’s a great time to buy (and even sell in some price ranges) those who are content with where they are can still take advantage of some great opportunities.

The Federal Government is offering many tax rebates on home improvements that increase the efficiency of your home.  Such rebates and incentives include upgrading your insulation, switching to high efficiency windows, or even converting to a high efficiency furnace & heating system.

One of my clients recently received a $1000 rebate (non-governmental) from a local utility company, so I know first hand these rebates work.  If you are considering some work on your home, it would be well worth your time to investigate some of these rebates and incentives.  I’ve recently heard an ad campaign asking homeowners to reduce the size of their lawn for a $100 water credit.  I don’t know too much about this yet, but I’m looking into it.

If you’d like more information on local Spokane & Coeur d’Alene incentives – please contact me.
