Going Green, Part 1

Submitted by skutsche on Wed, 07/15/2009 - 14:37

I am posting a small booklet with ideas to help you and your families in the quest to “go green”. After reading the first couple of pages you will see how easy it is to “go green” with just a little change to our daily routines. These little changes will help to bring about much bigger changes that will eventually preserve our planet, especially St. Clair and the Blue Water area, for the future generations of our families. Check in weekly for more ideas.

It seems that the “first time” home buyers tax credit may expand. Not only amount wise but also who can access the credit. To read more: http://www.realtor.org/RMODaily.nsf/pages/News2009062201?OpenDocument
