How to Clean a Living Room So You Don't Gross Out Your Guests

How to clean a living room is a question any conscientious homeowner will ponder. Don't your family and guests deserve a pristine place to hang out in? Don't you ? This showpiece area of your home cries out for white-glove treatment—but let's get real, no one has white gloves anymore . Which is why, in this latest installment of our comprehensive  House Cleaning Guide , we'll show you how to clean a living room with minimal mess, drama, or trauma. How to clean lights, lamps, and chandeliers When tackling any room in the house, clean from top to bottom, says Jan Dougherty , author of “The Lost Art of House Cleaning ”—otherwise you’ll have to clean the floors twice. Therefore, the best starting point in a living room is to look up at its light fixtures. First off, whatever type of lights you have, don’t forget to dust the lightbulbs at least once a month—dirty bulbs shed 30% less light than clean ones, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.

10 Things You Must Do When Moving Out of Your Apartment

Image
Facebook Google Plus Twitter Pinterest LinkedIn Email When it’s time to move on from your apartment, it’s tempting to just throw your stuff in some boxes and go. But, not so fast. Remember when you initially signed your lease and paid your first and last month’s rent? That’s right….you also paid a hefty deposit. Want that money back? Of course, you do. Here’s how to reclaim that money to use for your next apartment—or as a down payment for your house: 1. Give Ample Notice Check your lease to know what’s required; on a month-to-month lease, it is typically 30 days, but make sure you give written notice at the correct time. 2. Check the Balance “Ensure that all rents and fees have been paid in full,” says Amy Groff, vice president of operations at apartment manager and developer Kittler Management. It’s not unusual for tenants to think they’ve paid their maintenance fees and realize they haven’t, for example. 3. Leave No Trace You don’t want to leave anything behind, whether it’s trash ...

Living Next Door to a White Supremacist

Until Saturday, August 12th, Debra Godfrey liked to sit on her front porch in the afternoons. She’d smoke a Newport and watch what little traffic there was pass by. Godfrey, who is fifty-one, lives in Belmont, a quiet neighborhood on the southeast side of Charlottesville, Virginia. Kids would play together after they got off the school bus a couple of houses down. Neighbors would walk past with their dogs, waving hello, as they headed to a nearby park. These days, Godfrey mostly stays inside in the afternoons. The neighborhood is still quiet, she said. “But it’s more quiet. People are more alert.” August 12th was the day of an alt-right rally called “Unite the Right,” which devolved into violence as thousands of white supremacists and counter-protesters swarmed through the city’s downtown streets. The unrest made international headlines and left a thirty-two-year-old counter- protester named Heather Heyer dead , with dozens more injured. For Godfrey, who is black, the day’s chaos has...

Renata Sanches DO NOT RENT HERE!!!!!!!! Do yourself this HUGE favor. First of all, I feel like living inside of a garbage can. My apartment is infected now with small cockroaches, the pest control company came … several times and I think they are spraying water because is not working at all. I have a baby at home who I'm afraid of getting sick and the office staff don 't do anything about it, actually they don't even answer the phone so you will probably need to take a day off if you want to get in touch with them. They charge us extra fees for trash services and the company hired ALWAYS miss to pick it up the bags, smells nasty outside and I feel ashamed of bringing guests home . My mom came visit me and she didn't know that here is a free smoking community , No warnings signs, so If you don't live here it's just impossible knowing that. She was smoking downstairs when Pam, the lady who works at the office came SCREAMING, I could hear her voice from the thi...
