Almost every year for the past 20 years we have participated in the Festival of the Little Hills in one way or another. At first it was with the Boy Scouts cooking up great Sausage and Pepper sandwhiches and picking up trash (boys worked too) to earn funds for High Adventure Camps. Then when our three Eagle Scouts moved on to College and other aspects of their lives we started driving Courtesy Carts to take patrons to their cars or other parts of the Festival.
We just finished this years Courtesy Cart adventure and we can tell you the Festival is in full swing. We had a great time and we stayed after to enjoy the music, street shows, and craft booths. And of course the food. If you are looking for something to do this weekend, take a ride down to the heart of old Saint Charles. There's lot's to see an do for the whole family.

We understand there are procrastinators, and that some folks work way better under pressure. This is one instances though where a little pre-planning will make sure you make the deadline of November 30, 2009. If you think you can wait to close on the last day, you better think again. Most title companies will be closed the day after Thanksgiving. That leaves you only Monday, November 30. How many people will be in line to close that day? Then, what if the numbers are wrong and the company you are getting your loan from has to re-disclose and you have to wait another 3 days before you can close? Now you are past the 30th. Now What? No $8,000 Tax Credit.
If you plan to utilize the Tax Credit see your mortgage person now, get your pre-approval and start looking now. When submitting your contract ask your loan person for a reasonable time frame to close your loan in advance of the deadline.

Selecting cabinets for a new construction home can appear to be a simple task - but there is a lot to consider when choosing cabinets for your new to be built home. Kitchen, bath, laundry and storage cabinets are one of the bigger ticket items that can make or break the deal but also have an impact on the re- saleability of your home if you decide or need to sell it later.
Wood Cabinets - low cost builder grade wood cabinets consists of particle board covered with a thin wood veneer. particle board is larger granule sawdust fibers and glue pressed together under great pressure. Issues with this material include breakage under greater torque from tight screw installation. This causes loss of integrity of the box structure.
The next step up is MDF material instead of article board with a wood veneer on top. Better cabinets are those made with plywood which are boards with a veneer covering.
You have two types of cabinets framed and unframed. The most popular, especially in the mid-west are framed cabinets. Most of our framed box cabinets are solid wood framed. There are two kinds of face framed cabinets. Want to make sure your dinner plates will fit? You will be looking at a solid wood cabinet with rails inside and at the top to screw the cabinet to the walls. Cheaper cabinets have the rails at the bottom which get in the way of your plates.
Doors are the expensive part of the cabinet as the design and carving as well as finish determines the cost. So how do you know how to choose? Where should you put your money in the home? Having your Realtor (not the builder's Realtor) to assist you with selecting the various options on the home can help you be sure you are putting the dollars where they should be spent and that you are not over spending. Some items may not be appropriate for a new construction first time home. Be sure you select a Realtor who knows new construction to assist you in working with your builder and negotiating price.
