Steve & Nicole’s Autumn Update Newsletter
A little bit of everything. From design to books and local events; here’s what’s exciting us this month!
Quote We Are Pondering
“Autumn…the year’s last, loveliest smile.”- William Cullen Bryant
Books We Are Reading
Steve: Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game by Michael Lewis. The Wall Street classic has been on my list for a long time. An entertaining read about Michael Lewis’s two years at Solomon Brothers after college proved to be a fun and entertaining read. Little did he know at the time that this would set the foundation for his best seller The Big Short because of his time around the mortgage backed security department back in the 1980s.
Nicole: Eye opening and fun, Life in Five Senses: How Exploring the Senses Got Me Out of My Head and Into the World by Gretchen Rubin, is my favorite recent read. With insights and suggestions about how to use our senses to heighten our experience in every day life and engage with the world around us, Gretchen explores methods and techniques to help experience each day with connection and wonder; my favorite being creating a daily ritual of visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Our Tips for Getting Your Home Ready for Sale
Keep It Clean - Simplifying and decluttering your home will remove all distractions and help highlight your home’s best features.
Sweat the Small Stuff - Touching up high-traffic areas can make a space look brand new and increase perceived value. A fresh coat of paint gives a clean look, shows the house is well-maintained, and means less work for the buyers when they move in — and who doesn’t love that!
Take a Selfie - There is still time to showcase your exterior space in all of its summery glory. Schedule photos now, before the trees are bare and there’s half-melted snow on the ground. Let’s face it, lush landscaping with colorful flowers is always more appealing. Sadly, this is something most sellers realize in mid-December.
