Into the Weekend - February 18th, 2022

We've made it to the weekend!  I'm just returning to town from a great ski-trip in Colorado, just in time for home tours, offers, and all the regular weekend activities of a REALTOR.  There are some neat events happening in the area this weekend, or you if want to chill at home you may want to check out the latest Compass Curated or start planning your spring & summer home improvement projects.  Whatever you're up to this weekend, I hope it's a great one! -Matt Local Happenings LUNAR NEW YEAR It’s the year of the tiger!

Lifestyle Tips Top Home Design Trends of 2022 As it turns out, many of the top home design trends of 2022 are iterations of concepts we’ve seen in recent years, but it’s not due to a lack of creativity. Instead, it’s likely because we’re continuing to lean in to our personal tastes and needs. From nature-inspired interiors to vintage furnishings and tactile finishes, here are the design trends that industry experts predict will dominate this year.
