Here are 5 benefits of fruit-infused water to beat desert dehydration.Infusing your water with fruits, herbs, or flowers not only improves the flavor but also adds essential vitamins that help your body.They can replace store-bought flavored waters that may have preservatives, artificial sweeteners and colors, sodium, dextrose, and refined sugars.The flavor helps young children increase their water intake. Staying hydrated can build up your immune system, regulate bloodsugar and help with weight management. Drinking infused water can give you a boost of energy before an intense workout. Tips on making Hydrating Infused WaterMaking infused waters is like making a vegetable stew; you are not going to ruin the stew if you add an extra cup of carrots, for instance. Use your best judgment and err on the side of adding more fruit rather than less. Here are a couple of things to consider before you start experimenting to help you find the flavors that your taste buds crave.   Citrus rindsCitrus fruits add another layer of flavor, but if you add more than a slice, be sure to remove the rinds! Those produce a bitter flavor and can ruin the taste. These bottles from Amazon are great to filter out the seeds found in citrus fruits as well.   Herb combinationsBefore experimenting with herb and fruit combinations, do your research to find out what flavors pair well with each other. When in doubt, you can’t go wrong with adding mint. Sweet fruitsSweet fruits such as strawberries or pineapple make great additions to your water, especially for kids, encouraging them to drink more water on hot summer days. If you find you’ve added too much, the good news is, you can just add ice to make it less potent! This blog post was brought to you by our Premier Service Provider, H20 to Go.

(March 16, 2021) – Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC, a Realogy (NYSE: RLGY) brand, recently commissioned a survey, conducted online by The Harris Poll among over 1,300 U.S. homeowners, exploring their plans to sell amid this year’s fast-paced market to coincide with its national ad, “Guiding You Home Since 1906,” airing during the NCAA Men’s College Basketball Tournament. The survey findings indicate this already hot real estate market is roaring into this decade, as one in five homeowners (20%) plans to sell in the next 12 months.“Guiding You Home Since 1906”Airing just in time to capitalize on this growing trend, the “Guiding You Home Since 1906” ad shows people celebrating the joy of returning home, a sentiment made more meaningful after a year spent apart from those we love. Last year, following a first-of-its-kind transparent rebrand to modernize the 40-year-old logo, the brand released the ad with the new North Star logo and brand story to the consumer market set to air during the 2020 NCAA Men’s College Basketball Tournament. However, after only a week of airing the ad, the tournament was cancelled.Now, after a year of pivots, the real estate industry’s most effective ad will air again during the 2021 NCAA Men’s College Basketball Tournament among several other platforms including Hulu, HGTV, Food Network and other cable network programing.The ad ranks as the top real estate ad of 2020, outpacing the industry average with high marks for likeability, attention and music as measured by Ace Metrix. Ace Metrix also confirms that “Guiding You Home Since 1906” is in the top 3.4% of all ads for heartfelt scores.It’s no wonder consumers love the “Guiding You Home Since 1906” campaign. The ad showcases how Coldwell Banker-affiliated agents are a vital aspect in any home selling experience – especially in this fast-paced seller’s market, in which sellers need the most trusted guide in the industry to help them navigate this new normal.Home Seller Survey: Real Estate’s Roaring 20sConcurrent with the ad airing, the spring home buying and selling season is already hot. With record low inventory on the market, pent up demand and continued historically low mortgage rates, Coldwell Banker Real Estate asked home sellers about their plans to list their homes. The survey results reflect homeowners’ plans to sell, where they are going and their top concerns.Americans on the MoveOne in five homeowners (20%) say they plan to sell their current home in the next 12 months.The Young and the Restless: Younger homeowners (aged 18-34 and 35-44) are more likely to say they plan to sell their home in the next 12 months compared to their older counterparts (39% and 36% vs. 19% aged 45-54, 6% aged 55-64, and 2% aged 65+).Relocating and UpsizingIn addition to a new home, many are seeking out a new location too. Nearly six in 10 homeowners who plan to sell in the next 12 months (57%) are relocating to a different city or state.The most common motivation for listing their home for sale among those who plan to sell in the next 12 months is the desire/need to upsize (39%). Other top motivations include realizing their home can sell for more than they thought (31%) and the ability to work remotely for their current employer (30%).Baby Bust in a Real Estate Boom. Many predicted a baby boom in 2020 – it just didn’t happen. Homeowners plan to expand their households in other ways, including getting a pet or having a relative move in, as 2 in 5 (40%) younger homeowners (ages 18-44) say their household size growing in the next 12 months will impact their housing needs.Common ConcernsNearly all homeowners planning to sell in the next 12 months (95%) would have concerns about selling today, in an unprecedented market. For those planning to sell in the next 12 months, the top concerns if they were to sell their home today are the U.S. economy tanking not being able to purchase a home after they sell (38%) and coming into contact with COVID-19 (34%).Younger homeowners are seeking extra guidance. If they were to sell their home today, younger homeowners are more likely than some of their older counterparts to say they would be concerned about the following:The home selling process being intimidating (35% 35-44 vs. 23% 45-54, 20% 55-64 and 15% 65+)not knowing what their home is worth (27% 18-34 vs. 12% 55-64 and 15% 65+)not knowing where to start (28% 18-34 and 22% 35-44 vs. 12% 55-64 and 8% 65+).If you would like more information on buying or selling a home during spring selling season, please contact the Coldwell Banker Premier Realty sales professional responsible for sharing this blog with you.  http://upscalelivinglv.com/blog/21215/spring-selling-season-is-here!/ Thu, 08 Apr 2021 09:19:37 -0800 Happy April!
