The Coming Tsunami of Parental Nursing Home Costs
In general it's difficult to argue against the notion that children who have the means should be willing to contribute to keep mom & dad when they no longer can live on their own: the question is do we want the state forcing that when costs have become astronomical? Well, 30 states have laws like that on the books that come under the heading of "filial responsibility" and these laws date back to what England put on their books in the 1600s. If the parents can't or won't pay, then to the extent adult children have the ability to pay, these states' laws say they must. Between 1965 and 2005, medicaid essentially covered nursing home care costs for the elderly, few questions asked. But[..]

Outside there was a lovely flowerbed, shrubs, and a great view of our law. It was just the spot to install a bay window. The window was almost a perfect square and was 72 by 72 inches.

So it is wise in the planning stage to try and group your plumbing all relatively close together. It seems a bit silly to have a massive house and an en suite located way over on one corner all on it's own.

Room Dividers - The Answer to Home Additions,...
In the past 15 to 20 years, the trend for house design, as well as restaurant floor plans, has had a huge emphasis towards an open floor plan. An open floor plan lends itself well to entertaining and creating a spacious and airy feeling. Unfortunately, an open floor plan does not necessarily fulfill the need for a private room which can be dedicated to a home theater set up with a controlled acoustic environment, game room, or private dining. The most recent trends in custom built homes have been to dedicate a room to a home theater setup or game room. If the home is already built, building an addition can be cost prohibitive to which any builder can attest. With the economy still in a[..]

We've all heard the old adage that restaurants don't sell steak, they sell the sizzle. That same adage can be true for selling houses. Here's what I mean. Let's say you have a house on the market that just doesn't seem to be garnering any offers.

It's no secret that the current housing market will remain largely lethargic for an extended period of time.

The Rambler is a family home, highlighting the everyday values of pragmatism and modesty that resonated with a post-World War II America.
