How To Put A Downstairs Bed and Bathroom to Good Use

Kaye Swain Roseville real estate agent shares local real estate listings chefs kitchen granite counters

Westpark Beauty Recently we featured one of the beautiful West Roseville homes for sale in Westpark with a bedroom and bathroom downstairs. It's no longer available (click here to see Roseville homes for sale with a bedroom and bathroom downstairs that ARE currently available!) but the ways you can use a downstairs bed and full bathroom can apply to many homes with the same type of layout. Great Options! Whether it's a regular bedroom and full bathroom or a complete master bedroom suite, houses with these features have one of my fave floor plan options.Talk about a home with a variety … Continue reading...

Good News for Lincoln CA Buyers and Sellers

Kaye-Swain-real-estate-agent-blogger-in-Roseville-CA-near-Sacramento

Lincoln CA Lincoln is right next door to Roseville CA which is pretty much right next door to Sacramento. You get all the advantages of living in the greater Sacramento Valley area, with so many interesting things going on like the June Jazz Festival that just happened. And the upcoming Independence Day Celebrations all over, including Old Sacramento and Roseville. But you also get so many great things by living in a smaller more rural town - including plenty of local fun things to do such as the upcoming Beauty and the Beast equestrian event that includes barrel racing, bull and bronc … Continue reading...

Fun Kid and Grandkid-friendly Tip For A Kitchen Cupboard

Fun and family friendly Home and Kitchen tip from Roseville CA real estate agent blogger Kaye Swain

Here's a fun kitchen organization tip I was reminded of recently when visiting adorable grandkids including my youngest grandbaby. Put your plastic containers, like Tupperware and Rubbermaid, in a lower cupboard, along with a couple of toys. They can keep you company in the kitchen while your are cooking and cleaning. A fun way to keep the kitchen organized and easy to tidy with little ones and enjoy the time with them. I did this for years with my kids and later my nearby grandkids. Probably just coincidence, but they ALL love to cook in the kitchen now. … Continue reading...

Parks Can Make You Want to Walk Your Stress Away

I love to find delightful parks with winding walking trails, shaded by trees, in little pockets of neighborhoods. Yesterday, while previewing a brand-new-on-the-market single story home, I made a most delightful discovery. I turned left from the cute "Fab Fifties era" home I had just visited, drove past several houses to where the street ended and came to a stop. I noticed I was facing a gorgeous jungle of tall green trees. I was about to turn left, when I spotted what looked like a "secret entrance" and a sign. Curious, I parked my car, walked back, and found a gorgeous walking trail … Continue reading...

Celebrating Spring With Grandkids and Real Estate Apps

Pending homes and active homes for sale in Pierce County Washington from the NorthwestMLS 4 6 14

It's spring! The flowers are blooming. The non-evergreen trees are sprouting new leaves. My allergies are starting to rear their ugly little head(s). And spring fever is hitting all of us, making it an excellent time to bundle up the grandkids and head off to enjoy an afternoon at the park and on the walking trails. For those of you thinking of real estate, that's doing grand as well. So grab my free real estate app and have fun looking for houses to buy or getting an idea of what your own home is worth if you decide to sell it.

Real Estate Brokers Tour Diary: Spring is SPRINGING!

My grandkids would love to visit this bedroom that has its own loft inside one of the old homes in Tacoma Washington - Pierce County - with a blue house neighbor

Our real estate Brokers Tour this week was delicious as usual - both because of cool "eye-candy" including PINK TREES, as well as tasty treats like spiral wrapped sandwiches. Yummy. This week's focus was on fellow Keller Williams Realty real estate brokers but it also ended up having a focus on some of the delightful old homes in the area. I think the newest home I saw was a gorgeous and HUGE home that was built in 1969. With 3,494 square feet and a 1/2 acre lot, this home would be perfect for a variety of uses, including two of my faves - large families or a multi-generational family that … Continue reading...

Spotlight on One of My Grandkids Favorite Parks

Grandkids of all ages love this park

Talk about awesome parks! This one definitely lives up to that! And the number of kids (and parents) there each time we have visited (on hot days AND cold), attests to that! And boy, this park is huge as well as cool (340 acres)! My grandkids favorite part is the playground with swings, loops to hang from, steering wheels in faux cars - train - and boat. It's great for young imaginations. I appreciate the many benches to sit on while enjoying the lovely vista of the grandkids playing with their many new and old friends. I also appreciate the restrooms and drinking fountains right beside the … Continue reading...

Use These iPhone Apps to Create Fun Cards And Home Video Tours Spotlighting Unique Options Like Aging-In-Place Accessories

This could make a cute greeting card or post card for a real estate agent or a grandparent .jpg

 One of my joys during this past holiday season was getting to see all my grandkids. One set lives nearby and we had several fun get-togethers. The rest of my grandkids live quite a ways away but I got to visit them twice. And I only had to do the driving one of those times! Yay! :) The second time I enjoyed grand conversation, fun football tutorials, and even had a chance to check out some of the apps I've been downloading (many free) to give me even more grand ways to help my real estate clients (not to mention find more grand goodies for the grandkids). I ended up throwing several iPhone … Continue reading...

Resources and Ideas to Tick Off Those Pesky Ticks!

Chickens can help multigenerational caregivers multitask by eating bad bugs like ticks 300

As much as I dislike the creepie crawlies and other irritating members of the insect world, they are a fact of life. So before I totally leave the subject, I have one more irritating pest to discuss - Ticks! Would you believe it, I never even HEARD of a tick until I was an adult. That's when they first discovered Lyme Disease - caused by a bacteria transmitted by these tiny pesky dangerous little bugs! Unfortunately there appear to be ticks in every state of the union - though not all carry diseases and not all carry the SAME diseases. The CDC has several graphics to explain which ticks carry … Continue reading...
