It is gonna get cold. Time to unhook the hoses from the faucets.

When we did our home inspection together we talked about reminders that I would send from time to time for items about your home.  Well, here we are again.  October 15th and Alexa just notified that the National Weather Service has issued a freeze warning for Cedar Falls and Waterloo and NE Iowa.  So, if you are all snug in your bed and checking email or Facebook with your phone it is now time to get out of that nice warm bed and go unhook your hoses from the exterior faucets.  Don't forget the ones in the garage if you have any.  I know, it sucks.  I have been there too.  You will thank me.  Listen in on what can happen on the video if you don't.   Enjoy and share with friends.

If you are currently closing on a home or are a listing agent you may want to check on the property to verify hoses are disconnected and that the heat is turned on.  It is amazing that we move from 75 degree days and windows open at night to FREEZING weather and needing the furnace all in 7 days.  But we are Iowans.  We just need reminders that nature is in charge.
