Cottage exterior home idea in Minneapolis

This master bath features a black granite countertop with two sinks facing each other. A two sided mirror hangs suspended between the sinks. The tile used is a wonderful series from American Olean called St. Germain. What is super nice about this tile is not only its good looks and affordable price, but the fact that it comes in a variety of useful sizes. On the floor I specified 12x12" tile, while the tub/shower wall was done in 6x24" tile, with accent rows of 1x2" mosaic. The mosaic was repeated on the tub front and shower floor. What gives the tile its contemporary styling is the way it was layed in stacks, with minimal design detailing. Simplicity is key for that modern look. The same tile could take on a more traditional look if it were layed differently. The tile is also available in 12 x 24" sizing, a size that has become very popular. Note that the large window looking out on the backyard has frosted glass on the lower half for, not only for privacy, but to allow the owners to view the sky. Instant weather report! Pendant lights worked perfectly on either size of the hanging mirrors.

Living room library - mid-century modern living room library idea in Orange County

The United States has the most powerful economy in the world if one were to use GDP as the criteria.China is launching a challenge but it’s obvious who has the victory. The US Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) highlighted the industry“Finance and Insurance” in a recent report. The real estate industry is part of this classification in the BEA summary. BEA acknowledged as the biggest contributor to growth in the 4th quarter of 2016. This sector even outperformed the GDP by 20% at one time. This is somewhat unexpected considering the 2008 crisis when the real estate bubble burst. The resulting financial crisis spread like wildfire and affected practically all industries. Eventually, this financial plague contaminated the global economy as well. The saying is true: when the US sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold. The good news is, the real estate sector has been recovering fast. So, what are the trends and factors to look out for in 2017? What are the possibilities this year? Real estate prices continue to rise. For the last five years, property prices have been going up. The horizon is rosy and it looks like the ghost of 2008 has been laid to rest. Most experts predict only good things throughout 2017 as far as the real estate industry is concerned. This pace will hopefully continue. The primary forces that push prices upward are low unemployment rate, high consumer confidence, and a very strong market demand. In 2016, existing home sales increased by 3.8% according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR). Similarly, the US Census Bureau statistics disclosed that sales of new single-family houses are up 12%. In 2016, all 20 big cities in the US registered an upward trend in property prices. Let’s look at some of them: Seattle – 10.75% Portland – 10.01% Denver –8.89% Tampa – 8.33% Dallas – 8.06% Miami – 6.79% Boston – 6.31% Interest rates The Federal Reserve has not increased interest rates for more than 10 years. However, the US Central Bank hiked the interest rate to 0.5 (or 25 basis points) last December. Surprisingly they did it again last March. It seems these hikes weren’t enough because this month the Fed increased the interest rate once more. That makes a total of three hikes in a 7-month period. Right now the rate sits at 1.25 percent. Experts are bracing for at least one more rate hike before the year is over. Obviously, these increases directly impact mortgage rates. A higher rate will naturally mean a higher cost.The upside is, this is an indication that the economy is getting stronger and becoming more stable.Furthermore, analysts are confident that rates will not go beyond 4.3% for 30-year fixed mortgages. Low unemployment rate The US unemployment rate has been going down since 2012. It reached its lowest point at 4.3% last May. On the Bureau of Statistics website, you can check out a chart that shows how this rate has been improving. The unemployment rate has actually already equaled the levels before the crisis happened. More employment means more income to families. More income means more people with the capacity to purchase new homes.This is definitely one of the most bullish indicators not just for the housing market but for the economy as a whole. In an economic climate like this, banks will be more inclined to grant mortgages to first-time home buyers. Mortgage frenzy Even with rising interest rates, more and more people are deciding to buy their first home. The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) reported an unbelievable upward trend for the month of May.On top of this, a Builder Application Survey revealed that for May, applications for a new home increased by 15%. This is a very significant spike from April’s increase of 4%. It appears that the confidence and trust in the economy is more positive. The interest rate increases hardly mattered to buyers after all.

Dining room - contemporary light wood floor dining room idea in London with white walls

Get smart. To outsmart kids prone to leaving lights on, the Lutron Maestro motion sensor automatically turns lights on and off, and to set the mood lighting, the handy Lutron Caseta Wireless controller dims lights and raises and lowers blinds while iDevices switches wirelessly control the Robert Abbey Delta Emerald Glazed Table Lamp and floor fan, while the heat and AC are controlled by a Honeywell Lyric thermostat. Both wireless controllers and the thermostat respond to app or voice commands by Amazon Echo, which can also play music, update a Google calendar, report the news, and even read the kids a story. The family can play it safe anywhere in the home with Samsung smartthings hub home monitoring kit which sends alerts via app if anyone passes a sensor or opens or closes a connected door or window.
