Ever wonder why some people seem to stumble upon great home deals while others don’t? It’s not just luck.

Here are four insider tips for getting a steal of a deal on your next home.

1) Cancellations - Not every sale crosses the finish line, and when they don’t, it’s your opportunity to swoop in. These homes are like items left in the shopping cart—someone didn’t complete the purchase, and now it’s up for grabs, often with an attractive price tag.
-
2) Homes with Higher Days on Market - You know those houses that seem like they’ve been on the market forever? Maybe they’re slightly overpriced, or the listing photos didn’t showcase their potential. A keen eye and a bit of patience can unveil their true value. Plus, the longer a house stays on the market, the more likely the seller is to negotiate on the price.
-
3) Homes that Have Fallen Out of Contract - When one deal falls through, it might pave the way for a better one. Owners of these homes are typically eager to sell, giving you the upper hand in negotiations.
-
4) Quick Move-in-Ready New Construction Homes - Builders are in the business of selling homes, not owning them. If a new construction home is move-in ready, chances are the builder is eager to sell. This means you might snag it for a better deal than you’d think.
-
Keep these tips in your back pocket, and the next time you’re in the market, remember the best buys may be a blink away from the spotlight.

I couldn’t help but share this… just another reason to always hire a professional, right? 😅

After all it does for you, your home deserves some TLC before the new year.

The good news is you don’t have to do it all at once. You can take it one drawer, cabinet, or closet at a time!

Holiday Hours
Please note: There is no emergency care available on Dec. 25th or Jan. 1st between the hours of 8:00am-6:00pm. Please plan ahead should you be in need of emergency care during those times. Emergency clinic availability is listed on our website at www.heritagepetvet.net .

Here’s me reminding you of two things:

• You only have four days left to get it together
for Christmas Day.

• Today is the first official day of winter.

(I say we pause the Christmas crazies just for a bit, light the fire, kick our feet up, and drink to the new season in style.) Afterward, you can knock out these quick and easy tips to get your home ready for the cold weather ahead:

• Change your air filters and adjust your thermostat.
• Switch your ceiling fans to rotate clockwise.
• Cover patio furniture and store removable cushions.
• Disconnect exterior hoses from their spigots.
• Buy ice melt to have on hand.

Let me introduce you to a Holiday favorite in this household: Buttery Breakfast Christmas Casserole

You read that right... the word buttery is in the TITLE of this recipe.

The focus of the holidays is always on the dinner

But what about feeding hungry house guests the morning of or the morning after a big holiday sha-bang?!

This one is a crowd favorite and requested year after year (sorry turkey and ham) and is SO easy to prep ahead of time!

Let's get into it! 1 lb pre-cooked croissants (about 5 to 7), split in half lengthwise 1 tbsp olive oil, more for baking dish 1 bunch scallions thinly sliced, greens reserved 1 lb sweet Italian sausage, casings removed 2 tsp finely chopped fresh sage 8 eggs 3 cups whole milk 1 cup heavy cream 8 ounces Gruyère, grated (2 cups) 1¼ teaspoons kosher salt 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions for this Recipe can be found on New York Times Cooking - Or abbreviated below!

Step 1 Tear croissants into large bite-size pieces, set aside

Step 2 In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add sliced scallions and sausage meat, breaking up meat with a fork, until mixture is well browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in sage, and remove from heat.

Step 3 In a large bowl, toss together croissants and sausage mixture. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, 1½ cups cheese, salt and pepper.

Step 4 Oil a 9- x 13-inch baking dish. Turn croissant mixture into pan, spreading it out evenly over the bottom. Pour egg mixture into pan. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hrs or overnight.

Step 5 Ready to bake? Heat oven to 350 degrees. Scatter remaining cheese over top. Bake until golden brown and firm to the touch, 45 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes. Garnish with sliced scallion tops before serving.

Grateful for all the special memories I have from my previous workplace – it's more than a job; it's a family. The joy on their faces when they receive cards is priceless. Let's spread some holiday cheer – consider sending a Christmas card and brightening their day! 🎄✉️

The residents have begun writing Christmas cards to their loved ones. 💜

As you’re writing out Christmas cards 💌 this year, could we ask you to send some Christmas cheer 🥰 to the residents of Marcella Manor?

It warms my heart to see the big smiles ☺️and pure joy on their faces when they open cards-they love pictures of kids 👨‍👩‍👧and pets 🐶🐈🐹🐰and drawings 🎨🖼️created by your little people.

Some have family who are far away and some have ailments that don’t allow them to celebrate the holidays together anymore.

The kindness of others never goes unnoticed around here! 💜
