Welcome to “Love Your Home”
Winter is almost upon us and it got me thinking about all the horror stories I’ve seen over the years when people neglect to winterize their homes. So, I encourage you all to read my “Winterize Your Home Checklist” to make certain that your home is prepared to endure a long chilly winter.
I’ve recently created a video in association with the BBB on “ Selecting a Professional Home Inspector

Sincerely, Glenn
