It doesn’t matter where you live or how spacious your apartment is, the kitchen is never quite big enough for all of the tools and appliances you have on hand. By being creative and resourceful, you can fully utilize the space you have, and make your kitchen storage areas stretch further than you ever imagined. Here are eight tips for maximizing your apartment’s kitchen space. Tip #1: Utilize your cabinet tops If your cabinets don’t extend all the way to the ceiling, you can use the top of your cabinets to store items you don’t use often, like a cake stand, large stockpots, a pressure cooker or a roasting pan. If you have smaller items to store, consider purchasing decorative baskets for your cabinet tops. All of your extra kitchen items will be beautifully hidden in plain sight. Tip #2: Use the inside of cabinet doors The inside of your cabinet doors is a perfect place for an over-the-door organizer. Some store kitchen towels and potholders, and other types can hold utensils, sp...

If you are a pet owner looking to rent an apartment with your furry family member, you may have a few extra hoops to jump through. Be sure you understand your apartment’s rules and restrictions so you can be a good tenant, good neighbor and responsible owner of a happy pet. Here are a few tips to facilitating harmony between your pet and your apartment complex: Tip #1: Know the rules When you are researching apartment options, be sure to read their pet policy. Some might allow them, but there may be rules about the size, breed, number of pets, etc. Do your homework before you fall in love with an apartment that says “no” to your loyal companion. Tip #2: Consider your pet’s temperament Most cats are laid back, low-maintenance and independent, but a dog’s temperament can be a toss up. If you have a dog that barks constantly at people or other pets walking by, when the air conditioning kicks on or when the doorbell rings, it might be disruptive to your neighbors. If you really wan...

When you lease a commercial space for your business, you are renting it from its owner. Leases are available for a set term, at which point you can renegotiate if you wish to continue operating your business from that location. Here are a few reasons why leasing commercial space would be a good choice for your business: More Flexibility When you buy commercial real estate , you have to make a significant down payment, usually between 10 percent to 40 percent of the property’s value. You are also responsible for the closing costs and appraisal fees. Renting gives you more flexibility because you don’t have to tie up as much cash as you would if you were buying. No Major Repairs Or Upkeep Significant maintenance problems and upkeep will be the responsibility of the property ...
