A Brief History of Veterans Day: Veterans Day Events in Augusta, Georgia LNH Realty salutes the brave men and women of our military, past and present, by sharing a bit of history about Veterans Day and highlighting two free events in Augusta, Georgia. Veterans Day pays tribute to all American veterans of all wars–living or dead–but makes special efforts to honor the living veterans who served our country. One of the most poignant Veterans Day ceremonies in the United States is an official wreath-laying at the Tomb of the Unknowns in Arlington National Cemetery. It is a beautiful ceremony that shows America’s respect and admiration of its soldiers. Ceremonies are also held throughout the country. Below are two ceremonies that will be held this Veterans Day in Augusta, Georgia, home to Fort Gordon. Veterans Day Celebration - Veterans: Heros of the American Heart Date: Wednesday, November 11, 2015 - 9:00 a.m. Venue or organization: Lakeside Middle School (527 Blue Ridge Drive, Evans, Georgia) Honoring veterans, active duty military personnel, local firemen and policemen; special seating for guests; patriotic music by the chorus and eighth grade band; memorabilia from family members; reception follows. Give notice if planning to attend so seating can be arranged (706) 855-6900. Veterans Day Parade Date: Wednesday, November 11, 2015 - 10:00 a.m.Venue or organization: Downtown Augusta Parade begins at the Sacred Heart Cultural Center at the corner of Greene and 13th streets then continues down Broad Street to the All Wars Monument.
Brief History of Veterans Day Veterans Day first started out as Armistice Day when in 1919, U.S. President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed November 11, 1918 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day. To celebrate the day, the original concept was to hold parades and public meetings and briefly suspend business operations beginning at 11 a.m.
Armistice Day resulted from a temporary ceasefire between the Allied nations and Germany in the First World War, also known as “the Great War.” This significant event occurred on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918. November 11, 1918 was considered the ending of “the war to end all wars.”

We at LNH Realty and over 50 businesses turned the Diamond Lakes Community Center in Hephzibah, Georgia into a rich opportunity for residents to discover all that the community has to offer. A number of businesses came out to share their services and goods while Gold Cross Emergency Medical Service provided free medical procedures for Hephzibah citizens including glucose testing and blood pressure checks. Other health information provided during the day focused on dental preventative care and good heart health. Children enjoyed snow cones and received free school supplies while adults won exciting door prizes and met caring business owners. All who attended talked with Safe Kids of Augusta, the Gold Cross EMS Bike Team and had an up close and personal look at to see the Gold Cross ambulance. LNH Realty believes one of the best ways to show the success of the expo is through photos. Below you will see a few of the businesses who came out and said, “We care about the citizens of Hephzibah!

Augusta. Home of the Masters. Augusta, Georgia is more than just a beautiful place; every year the city hosts one of the world’s most famous sporting events, the Masters Golf Tournament at the Augusta National Golf Club. The Augusta National is arguably the most beautiful golf course in the world. Past Masters winner Sam Snead once said, “I don’t want to sound overly sentimental about it. But with the course looking the way it does and the spirit of Bobby Jones running around, sometimes it feels as though the Masters is played on hallowed ground.” Membership to the club is extremely exclusive and is by invitation only. Past and present members include former U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower, Warren Buffet, and Bill Gates. This prestigious tournament is held during the first full week in April and was founded by Bobby Jones and Clifford Roberts in 1934. The best golfers in the world are invited to play in the tournament based on their accomplishments. Past winners include Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus and Phil Mickelson. In addition to the coveted Green Jacket and a lifetime invitation to the tournament, the winner earns a large sum of money. The 2014 winner took home $1.62 million. The Masters is an economic boom to Augusta every year. But excitement for the tournament lasts all year long as everyone prepares for the event. Azaleas are groomed, houses are prepped for rental and caterers perfect recipes as the whole city comes together to showcase southern hospitality to golf fanatics. This year the tournament will take place during the week of Monday, April 6 – Sunday, April 12. This year’s top contenders include 2014 winner Bubba Watson and #1 ranked golfer Rory McIlroy.

When you are in the process of selling your home, it may seem illogical to invest in its improvement. However, it is important to consider the impact that certain improvements and upgrades can have on your home’s selling value. According to the below article by Blanche Evans on www.realytimes.com, investments in home improvement can be well worth the initial cost because of what they can add to your home’s value. Seller's Advice: Spend a Little, Raise The Price a Lot Written by Blanche Evans on Wednesday, 17 September 2014 12:39 pm Your real estate professional is probably advising you to declutter, stage your home, plant new flowers, and make numerous repairs and updates. You may be reluctant to get started because of the costs, but according to home valuation site HomeGain, improvements like these can actually make you more money when you sell your home. Under HomeGain's Tools for Sellers, you can find the Home Sale Maximizer tool, where HomeGain has identified the top 10 home improvements under $1,500. These add the most to home sellers' bottom line, and are recommended by over 600 real estate professionals across the nation. The top 10 home improvements are listed by the greatest return on investment (ROI): Cleaning and de-cluttering ($290 cost / $1,990 price increase / 586% ROI) Lightening and brightening ($375 cost / $1,550 price increase / 313% ROI) Home staging ($550 cost / $2,194 price increase / 299% ROI) Landscaping ($540 cost / $1,932 price increase / 258% ROI) Repairing electrical or plumbing ($535 cost / $1,505 price increase / 181% ROI) Kitchen and bathroom ($1,265 cost/$3,435 price increase/172% ROI) Replace or shampoo carpets ($647 cost/$1,730 price increase/169% ROI Paint interior ($1,012 cost/$2,112 price increase/109% ROI) Repair floors ($931 cost/$1,924 price increase/107% ROI) Paint exterior ($1,467 cost/$2,222 price increase/51% ROI) When you put in your zip code, your results may vary from the survey results, but what's interesting is how consistently the surveyed listing agents recommended the same home improvements. Nearly 100% of listing agents recommend cleaning and de-cluttering, while 97% recommended lightening and brightening and 80% recommended staging. These top three categories cost just a little over $1,000, yet netted sellers $5,734 at closing. One hundred percent of HomeGain real estate agents recommend painting the interior and cleaning the carpet and ninety-eight percent recommend decluttering., but you may be surprised to learn that the top three money-makers in terms of ROI aren't necessarily what agents most often recommend. Cleaning and decluttering: Remove personal items; wash and clean all areas inside and outside of house; freshen air; remove clutter from furniture, counters and all areas of the home; organize closets; polish woodwork and mirrors, etc. Home staging: Add fresh flowers; remove personal items; reduce clutter; rearrange furniture; add new props or furniture to enhance rooms; play soft music; hang artwork in walls, and more. Lightening and brightening: Open windows; clean windows and skylights inside and outside; replace old curtains; remove other obstacles from windows that block out light; repair lighting fixtures; make sure windows open easily, among other suggestions. It's all about first and favorable impressions. It takes money to make money, but it doesn't have to take a lot. It's the return on investment that's important. |

According to a recent article on www.houselogic.com, there was a significant decline in the number of cash home sales this past August. Only 23% of all home buying transactions last month were all-cash sales, which is the lowest overall share since January 2009. Also, it is a decline from the percentage of all-cash sales from the prior month (July 2014), which was 29%. Investors seem to be backing out of the housing market this fall, and if this trend continues, it will help even the playing field for first-time and conventional home buyers (who rely on loans to purchase homes). If you are thinking about purchasing your first home, this could be the ideal time for you to make it happen. Contact LNH Realty, and we will help you with every step of the process.

Just a thought... For me, feeling lucky is more than just a “March” expression. I often think about how fortunate I am to be able to do what I love each day. As a REALTOR®, I get to help families from all walks of life live the dream of home ownership. I get to participate in community events as an entrepreneur and real estate resource. I am blessed to assist people as they make some of the biggest decisions of their lives. Can you get any luckier than that? I don’t think so. So while I won’t be “wearing the green” all year around, I most certainly will celebrate feeling lucky every day when I step out of my front door and into my role as REALTOR®, resource, community leader and friend. Thank you for the opportunity to do what I love. I wish many blessings for you and your family this month!
