Bonjour, Home Buyers and Sellers!

It's hot outside. Here in Springfield, MO it seems like every day there is a new heat index warning. Stay inside! Stay inside! It's even hot at 6:30 in the morning! So, what can we do about the heat when we are following the Weather Person's advice about staying indoors without running up the A/C bill? If you don't have central air, the answer is the two fan system! Here's a great article that gives you the details about this system, but basically you put a box fan (or standing fan if you don't have a box fan) in one window that blows air in and a fan in a second window to blow air out! That way you have air moving quickly through the room and it feels a lot cooler! Plus, the article tells us, that 2 fans are cheaper than a new A/C window unit! You'll be cooler, and anyone touring your house will be cooler. Keep in mind that while it isn't the only factor that will convince someone to buy your home, the temperature of your residence could make a big difference. You want buyers to know they will be comfortable in the new home they're choosing for themselves and if they see that you've done it while keeping the utility cost down, they'll be more likely to consider buying!
