The Downtown Container Park here in Las Vegas

The Downtown Container Park is a part of our Las Vegas experience for visitors and locals alike.  When speaking with people here in Las Vegas or from out of town, not many people are aware of this gem that opened in 2013.  It offers a variety of restaurants and entertainment; daytime for all ages, but at night, only those over 21 allowed.

 

The Downtown Container Park offers boutiques with apparel and home goods as well as custom jewelry or perhaps you want to pamper yourself and visit the salon; many choices in this center.  If you are hungry, you can find BBQ, tacos, cupcakes, yummy chocolate, cocktail bars, vegan cuisine and more. 

 

The Downtown Container Park is located at 707 Fremont just off of the Fremont Street Experience, look for the HUGE Praying mantis breathing flames!  Parking is a breeze and they even offer space for your personal events. 

A family event is planned for the Super bowl,  Feb. 1, 2015; try something new if you have not experienced the park. 2:00 p.  Attention - first 100 kids get a free football!

 

Happy New Year!

I want to take a moment this evening and thank you for your continued support and business.
Best to you in 2015 and beyond!

Today's Homebuyers Want . . .

Today's homebuyers want to live in neighborhoods that offer easy living, easy lifestyle with walkable neighborhoods.  People are looking for community life with nearby amenities and a neighborhood connection.  Recently while I was obtaining my REALTOR^®, GREEN Designation, we did indeed talk about walkable neighborhoods.  Perhaps it might be a suburb with restaurants, shops and parks; just an easy stroll from home.  A walkable neighborhood could be considered city life; living in the hippest urban spots often times is a highly sought after purchase.  With demand comes price.  A good realtor can balance the amenities with price, perhaps have alternatives if price doesn't match budget, if  the buyer is set on the walkable neighborhood idea.
Las Vegas has a wonderful selection of walkable neighborhoods - which could be a downtown location, maybe a highrise or a suburb like Summerlin or Green Valley.  Start your search for your new home at www.callkim.net and give me a call at (702) 521-3939.

Helpful Measuring Hints for Correctly Placing Furniture and Design

The Golden Rule

When you buy your new home or a pre-existing home, what about furniture?  Will your current furniture fit?  Let's look at a few basic rules.



A few basic things to remember:

Leave 36" around tables for the chairs to pull out......comfortable for guests.

Chandeliers are usually hung 36" above table and pay attention to the emmitance of light and the width of the lamp as well.

Allow for 18" between couch and cocktail table.

When hanging paintings, the bottom of the painting should be 8 - 10" above the back of the couch.

Moving Check List

Four to Five Weeks before you Move

Do you have any items to donate to the local charity, items that you don't really need? 

Decide what items you will be packing and moving yourself and what items need professional care.

Decide on an area to place your packed boxes, an area that is the least intrusive for your daily life.

Make sure you have enough boxes, tape, magic markers for packing and marking boxes

First pack the items that you don't use on a regular basis and can do without until you reach your new home

Research, interview and find a reputable moving company; get a sample contract of what you will be signing on the moving day.

Two Weeks before you Move

Contact your utility companies to coordinate the shut-off and turn on of all utilities

*  Gas
*  Electric
*  Water
*  Cable
*  Telephone

One Week Left........Crunch Time !

Contact your moving company and confirm all details (provide contact numbers)

Make sure you have cleared walk-ways, driveways and hallways for the move

Collect your valuable possessions, important paperwork, jewelry and keep them in your possession, not to be mistakenly sent with movers.  Pack a "must have" box, things that you need readily available and at your fingertips.

Day of the Move

When the movers arrive, go over the contract prior to signing it.  Hopefully you will have already looked at and seen the documention you will be signing.

Let the movers do their job, let them move! 

Make Final Tour of your Home....ensure that all is loaded.

Don't forget, often times the movers will unload the furniture etc... where you want it at the new house if you have  a plan!
