Ways to go Green



Easy Ways to "Go Green"



These days, most people want to do their bit to help the environment.

Unfortunately, not everyone is willing, or able, to install solar panels on their

roof or implement an in-ground heat recovery system.

Luckily, there are many smaller things you can do that can make a big

difference. Here are some ideas that can help you "go green" easily and

inexpensively.



Get a recycling bin and learn how to use it.


Most jurisdictions have a



recycling program. You may be able to get a rebate on your recycling bin or

even get it for free. Keep a list of items that can be recycled on your fridge

door, so that everyone in the family can participate.



Get a kitchen compost bin.


Find out if your jurisdiction has a compost



pick-up program. If they do, get a kitchen compost bin. Composting can

reduce landfill waste by as much as 32%.



Use energy-saving light bulbs.


Low energy light bulbs have come a long



way in recent years. Their consistent glow and brightness now rival their

incandescent counterparts. By replacing regular 40-watt bulbs with energy saving

8-watt bulbs, you could save nearly 50% of the electricity you used

for lighting. Results may vary by brand.



Shop for local produce.


Many grocery stores and supermarkets offer



produce – fruits, vegetables, – that are grown within a 100 mile radius. The

short transportation distance, means significantly less fossil fuel is required

to get the produce delivered to your local store. Keep in mind that some

non-local produce, such as apples in the off-season, often need to be

transported thousands of miles.



Let nature do the work.


As an alternative to air conditioning, open windows



and block out the passive heat gain from the sun with curtains. Do the

opposite in winter. Strategically using curtains and windows can lower your

energy bill by as much as 20%.

As you can see, you don't have to do much to have a "greener" home. Just

a few little changes can make a big difference.



And here's a little real estate related info...

How to budget for closing costs



If you're shopping for a new home, you would be using the The Tony Marino Team, of course, so we would make you aware that there will be
 
some costs over and above the purchase price. It makes sense to budget

for these costs so you're not surprised – and unprepared – when you get

the bill.

Most of these costs fall into a category that the real estate industry calls

"closing costs." The most common types include land transfer tax, lawyer’s

fees and disbursements, sales taxes, and for newly-built homes, utility hookups.

You should also consider other expenses you will incur, such as home

insurance and moving expenses.

Of course, if your new home is a condominium, you’ll also have to account

for the monthly condo fees.

Closing costs can vary depending on the type and location of your new

home. The Tony Marino Team, REALTORS® can help you determine the costs you will incur.
