MAKEOVER, CHECK OUT THESE FABULOUS IDEAS
TO TRANSFORM YOUR OUTDOOR SPACE.
Q
I've recently updated my
home and this summer I'd
like to update my outdoor living
space as well, but I am out of
budget! What should I do?
A
Create a flexible space that can easily be altered depending on how many guests you are
entertaining in your backyard. Double duty furniture, ample hard surfaces for drinks and
outdoor fireplaces come in handy when rearranging a space for larger groups.
With the warm summer months
approaching, we all want to have
a gorgeous outdoor living space that is
as enjoyable as the inside of our homes.
If you have recently undergone a major
renovation to your home, chances are
that these improvements have also
increased its value. This means, you will
have higher equity in your home than
you did prior to the renovation!
This is great news because that equity
can provide the solution to your
problem. Rather than putting off
outdoor projects until it's too late in
the summer to enjoy them, you can use
the equity in your home to qualify for a
home equity loan. With Tribecca, you
could have access to the funds needed
to get your outdoor living space
makeover underway in just a few days. -

If you are tired of running in and out
of the house when barbecuing, why
not opt for an outdoor sink. They are
convenient and also come in handy
when you are playing bartender for
your guests.
