For all those decorating their homes and looking for ideas, visit the Deseret News Fall Home Show this weekend at the South Towne Exposition Center. Running October 7 – 9, this event runs Friday from 2 – 10; Saturday 10 to 10; and Sunday 11 to 6. Exhibits range from new decorating ideas to remodeling ideas.
What a great place to get ideas to decorate that new custom-built home. But there’s also cooking presentations. There will be Chefs from around the valley giving cooking classes. And even better, every hour!
And there’s more! HGTV’s, Designed to Sell and Curb Appeal, John Gidding will be there on Saturday from 3 to 8 at the Ikea Design Stage.
We here at Kehl Brothers Homes think this is a great opportunity for decorating ideas. Hope to see you there!
Well, fall is coming and that means garage spring cleaning in our home. All the tools get organized, golf bags are cleaned out, and the garage floor is scrubbed clean. It’s a family affair with all the children invited (ordered) to help out.
The day actually turns out good and ending in ice-cream, but we find the oddest items. There are always more tools than we own, meaning our neighbors are missing a few. And tools missing from our garage are probably at the Jones garage when they had a car problem or house project. Last year we found a spare tire we knew nothing about and we are still trying to figure that one out. I think the best prize we’ve ever found in our garage clean out day is a baby doll carriage. We asked all our neighbors but no one knows where it came from.
Our yearly garage clean out day has become a tradition in our family that will never go away. I’ll make a bet our children will do the same with their families. And so on and so forth.
Recently, my wife and I have been watching a reality type television program that follows homebuyers through the process of purchasing a home.
The premise of the show is that the homebuyers walk through 3 different homes, and after weighing the pros and cons of each home, make their selection. One thing that has come abundantly clear to me after viewing the program is that every home buyer has unique needs and tastes. A home that can be one person’s dream can be another person’s nightmare.
With the purchase of home being such a financial and emotional investment, it makes sense to have your home fit your personal needs and tastes. Customizing your floor plan and selecting your own colors is of course an advantage of building a new home rather than buying an existing home. However, the advantages don’t end there. Below are just a few more advantages of custom building your new home with KEHL.
1. Energy Efficiency. Every new KEHL Home is ENERGY STAR compliant. Buying a new home built to ENERGY STAR guidelines can save you thousands of dollars in the long run in energy bills. It will also make your home a more comfortable place to be.
2. Advanced Building Methods and Products. Like with many things these days, building methods and technology are always improving. New homes are built too much higher standards even compared to homes built 10 years ago, protecting your most important investment– your family.
3. Warranties. All new homes come with a 1 year warranty. Also vital components such as roofing, water heater, and Air Conditioner will be brand new and something you will not need to worry about even after the year warranty period has expired.
4. Clean Let’s face it ,there is just something about living in a brand new home. It is clean and brand new without a scuff or dent.
5. Peace of mind Finally, there is peace of mind in living in a quality KEHL home. One of the most rewarding experiences I enjoy in my professional career is meeting people who have been in their KEHL home for decades and still express their appreciation of the peace of mind they received from building their new home.
We here at KEHL would love to help you make your dream home your reality. Contact us today to learn how we can help you receive all of the advantages building a new home can bring.
