This tax season, I know a lot of people who are really happy. Many of you are getting hundreds, even thousands of dollars, back on your tax refunds- and that’s awesome! Most of us spend it all (guilty- I love going on spontaneous vacations). Maybe the smarter ones store some of it away in a savings account. However, there are plenty of ways you can put your money to work for you! Check out this article by Vera Gibbons at the Zillow blog for tips on putting your tax refund into your home:
-Pay down debts- pay off credit cards or debts incurred from remodeling projects. You can even choose to make an extra mortgage payment- get that home paid off faster!
-Freshen up- start a new project, like updating paint colors or fixtures
-Make your home more energy efficient
-Buy insurance to protect your home, like flood insurance
