Ultimate Guide to June 2023 Home Maintenance: Tips for Home Owners | Ukiah CA | Realtor Tips

If you're looking for a little guide on what to maintain in your home this June this is your quick resource! Hi, my name is Kasie Gray, and I love helping first-time sellers buy their dream homes, and today we're talking about maintaining your home! Once you become a homeowner, there's nobody to call, it is all on you. I mean you can call some trusted resources that I will have linked down below but these are 10 things that you can do this month to make sure you're maintaining your home to the best of your homeowner's ability. One, clean out those gutters and the downspouts after a rough winter. It is definitely necessary to power wash the driveways and sidewalks. There's probably quite a bit of built-up Moss depending on where you're at and it can get slippery. Now's the Time to do it before it's too hot! Clean and repair outdoor play equipment. Like I said, a rough winter so there are probably some things that need to be touched up and cleaned. So get on that next! Number four is that clean and check the AC and schedule some maintenance if needed before they get way too busy and booked up and cannot help you and it's 110 and you have no AC. Number five, prep that grill for barbecuing. Don't use wire brushes because that's how people die. I've seen it on Tiktok, like three times. I just put my barbecue on fire instead but for real prep that Grill and get ready for some barbecuing. Number six is clean out the dryer vents and exhaust duct. If you need a recommendation on someone to come and do that for you I will link one down below. Number seven, wash fold organize all those beach towels and pool supplies. I like having a little bag ready to go with our towels all of our sunscreen and our outside necessities bug spray and I usually have a bag of snacks in there so that if somebody says, 'Hey let's go to the pool, or let's go to the beach, let's go do this', it is ready to go and we are ready to go. Sometimes I'll just even keep it in the car with us so if I'm at work and the kids are at daycare, it's just an easy transition. We just go to daycare to the pool. So I highly recommend that setup. Number eight, organize and store those school supplies. You've been using them for almost the whole school year and now you can declutter and go through the things that you will and won't need for the next year and put them away and hang those backpacks up. Number nine is to replace your air filters. If you haven't done this recently it's a must-do especially to make sure your AC is working properly. Number 10, dust those ceiling fans and set them to turn counterclockwise that will make sure that your house is cool down and not heated up. Did you know that the way that the fan spins determines that but now you do? So, if you're a homeowner and you have accomplished all these things, make sure to raise your hand down in the comment section. If you want my full complete annual calendar, you can get that down below for free! I look forward to helping you in the future maintain your home, not me personally but helping you give you a list of things to do!

Breaking Down the Cost of Living in Ukiah: A Day in the Life

Good morning! It's Kasie Gary, your realtor, Ukiah's know-it-all mom, and today I'm going to take you for a day in the life but the cost of living edition! So first off, it's our Friday. After we are done getting gas, she doesn't have daycares today. She only goes Monday through Thursday. S, Friday's like our mommy and Tegan day where we just do all of the things. We probably are going to spend more money than we typically would especially with her out of school her daycare is $50 a day. Monday through Thursday so there's that and then we're about to get gas and then go get some breakfast and then go to gymnastics and some other things that you'll see. So come with us to see what we spend in a day! I don't have a full tank. I just was tired of waiting. So, parking downtown is free and there are private lots that people pay permits for but they are free from three to five if there are any spots available in those parking areas, then you can park there and a lot of the streets are one and a half hour to five hours. So plenty of places to park and it's free! We just went to Llamas and got two breadsticks and a cookie in this community and it was twenty dollars and I didn't have chocolate chip. Baby Gymnastics it's located in the Rose industrial park and they have an open gym from 10 to 11 on Fridays and then they have open gym on Tuesdays from nine to ten it's a great little fun way to get some energy out and spend 15 so that your kid can throw a fit! We went to  U-top It and got ice cream for three dollars and we went and ate it at labels and didn't buy anything. So that's great and then we went to a packing show and had some snacks there and didn't buy anything, so that's great! Then we went to a dinner at Patrona and spent a hundred and thirty dollars after tip so that's also great after gymnastics. We went to lunch at Ellie's with our friends that go to gymnastics with us and we did split that bill so that was only twenty dollars. Then we took a nap which is free and then we stayed at home for the rest of the afternoon and did dishes and laundry and all of those things and of course those cost money but I'm not gonna do the math because I'm lazy but you can figure out based off of your bills and how much that would cost you to do three loads of laundry in a full sink of dishes. So then we're headed out to go to a fashion show and do some other fun things!
