For the Undiagnosed Survivors
By Sue

This month is Breast Cancer Awareness Month,  a cause that is close to my heart.  I have lost some special people in my life to Breast Cancer and have many, many friends, family and colleagues that are survivors. One in 8 females will be diagnosed with this horrible disease yet when caught early enough this cancer has one of the highest survival rates - over 98%.
When I heard that RE/MAX had teamed with Susan G Komen I wanted to do my part to raise funds and awareness to save lives.  For every home my clients buy or sell I donate $100 to Susan G Komen's local chapter to aid those diagnosed and those who may avoid a diagnosis altogether thanks to education and screening for prevention. Last year, we donated over $3,200 locally.

Together we have impact, and I am grateful for the opportunity to save lives not just in Breast Cancer Awareness Month but year round.  And, please ladies get those mammies grammed!

A Fall Home-Maintenance Checklist

You've heard of spring cleaning, but what about fall? Cooler temperatures and storms often mean unexpected leaks, cold drafts, home repairs—and home repair bills. Fortunately, basic fall home maintenance can prevent many of these repairs. Below are a few tips to prepare your home and prevent maintenance issues.
