When it comes to home improvements, many homeowners are opting for the do-it-yourself (DIY) approach. DIY home improvements not only allow you to save money but also provide a sense of accomplishment and personalization. Whether you’re fixing a leaky faucet or renovating an entire room, taking on home improvement projects can have numerous benefits that extend beyond physical transformation.

Cost Savings:

One of the most compelling reasons to tackle DIY home improvements is the potential for significant cost savings. Hiring professionals can be expensive, especially for minor repairs or aesthetic upgrades. By doing the work yourself, you can avoid labor costs and potentially save hundreds or even thousands of dollars.

Personal Satisfaction and Empowerment:

Undertaking a DIY project can be an incredibly fulfilling experience. From planning and execution to the final reveal, you’ll witness the transformation firsthand and take pride in your accomplishments. The sense of empowerment that comes with successfully completing a DIY project can boost your confidence and encourage you to take on even more challenging tasks.

Learning and Skill Development:

Engaging in DIY home improvements provides an opportunity to learn new skills and expand your knowledge base. Each project offers a chance to develop your problem-solving abilities, increase your understanding of various materials and tools, and enhance your craftsmanship. The skills you acquire through DIY projects can be valuable not only for future home improvements but also in other aspects of your life.

Flexibility and Control:

One of the greatest advantages of DIY home improvements is the flexibility and control they afford you. You can work on your own schedule, adjusting as needed. DIY projects also allow you to control the quality of materials used, ensuring that you choose options that align with your budget, preferences, and desired outcome.

Embarking on DIY home improvement projects brings numerous benefits that extend far beyond the physical changes to your living space. From saving money to personal satisfaction, skill development to flexibility, and bonding with loved ones, there are countless advantages to taking a hands-on approach. By investing time, effort, and a little creativity, you can transform your home while simultaneously gaining valuable experience and enjoying the journey along the way. So, grab your toolbox, put on your work gloves, and unleash your inner DIY enthusiast—your dream home awaits!

We close on the house tomorrow! Thank you David and Michael for making my first home buying a smooth process. I had several out of the ordinary situations that would had easily not been possible to get the loan in the time that they were able to approve it. My wife and I are forever grateful for the work the team did. Thank you again!

Everything had been going well over the past two years since refinancing an existing mortgage. The application process, approval, servicing website, everything had been very smooth, nothing but the best service. I then had a minor issue arise. We had a wind loss claim on our home and, unfortunately, I had put off getting the check cosigned until the last minute. An issue arose as part of a minor miscommunication in terms of where the check was to be forwarded for endorsement.To make a long story short, I feared that this miscommunication and misdirected check coupled with my procrastination were going to result in the check expiring and a huge hassle on my part to go through the process again. Mr. Inkman nor his branch were in any way involved with my account or account management, yet, the check inadvertently ended up in their draft loss department and I feared this would further delay things. I was a bit frantic.One of those that I emailed was Mr. Inkman. In an era when customer service is not as valued as in the past, I was very skeptical I would meet the deadline. But, to my surprise, Mr. Inkman took it on his own to personally get things done and get the issue resolved. It appears that he tracked down the overnighted check personally, directed it for signature, packaged and overnighted the check back to me. All the while remaining professional and pleasant and providing consistent email updates on the status. It doesn't even look like he delegated, rather taking the initiative and seeing it through on his own.To me, that's not just doing a job, that's going above and beyond in terms of leadership, professionalism, and customer service. We could not be more happy. And, as a further sign of good will, the Fairway CEO actually emailed me personally to follow-up and assure resolution. Been very happy with Fairway since my refinance, Mr. Inkman's efforts only further reinforce that opinion.

This transaction probably would not have happened without Michael. Whenever we hit a stumbling block, he found a way around it! He kept us informed and was a positive light all the way through to the end and beyond.Thanks
