Sustainability in new homes is an important

desire for home buyers these days. Products that last longer and are more environmentally friendly are worth consideration.

While some products are worth the investment, others need refinement before mass adoption.

As with all decisions on homes, you must weigh your budget against the benefit and decide for yourself.

If you are thinking about new construction in the near future this will be helpful in your decision making process.

"They don't make things like they used to"

Ok I sound like old man talking. . .

But it's true. Especially appliances.

There has been a huge uptick in repair requests for appliances and it has customers irate.

Especially newer appliances manufactured in the last 5 years.

Many repairmen are telling the customers it's better to just get another one rather than repair it.

The days of buying a refrigerator and having it last for 30 years are over.

Are we living in the age of disposable appliances?

One of the most undervalued aspects of a community is it's safety. If residents do not feel safe and protected in their community they will not spend money there, they won't leave their homes and eventually will leave the community.

Unsafe communities lose businesses, have declining property values, and gain a stigma in the area that is hard to shake.

After my recent episode of Big Brother is Watching You, I was given the opportunity to tour our local police department and learn not only about the cameras systems I questioned but also see first hand how they protect us.

I'll have to admit I was blown away by what our local police can do. I would encourage everyone to take a tour of their police department and see how they protect your community.

Find out what I learned about police and public safety.

New AI powered cameras are popping up all over your neighborhoods.

You might have noticed these near your homes, offices, or on main roadways.

I discovered this right in front of my business office.

They typically have a black square solar panel above with a black camera below and are mounted 8'-10' high on a pole or light facing a roadway.

They are called Flock Cameras and they capture you every time you drive by.

They grab your license plate, vehicle type, color, and can even notice small differences like bumper stickers.

While used by the police to find suspicious vehicles, if this data is put in the wrong hands it can be a tool of mass surveillance.

We discuss these cameras in your communities and some of the concerns we have with them.
