Interview with the Thrifty Homeowner

I searched for, and did not find, a blog devoted explicitly to helping homeowners save money. I couldn’t not believe this did not already exist, so I created one myself.

Absolutely. Virtually everything on the blog is based on improvements I’ve done or want to do. It’s personal to me, but I’m open to suggestions from readers, as well.

I think the renovation of my garden, because it was so cheap to install and it saves an accountable amount of money each year. It was also a lot of fun. A list of last year’s projects is here: http://www.thriftyhomeowner.com/2009/01/2008-look-back-on-my-projects.html

Probably one I just posted- 10 Easy Ways to Save Money. http://www.thriftyhomeowner.com/2009/11/10-easy-ways-to-save-money.html. I outline tips that anyone can implement quickly and cheaply.

It’s important that every homeowner have basic skills, and you can only get them from taking chances and actually doing things outside your comfort zone. If you can learn from a family member or friend, that’s great. But if you can’t, read all you can and just do it!

Most I pick up from reading home improvement manuals, others I learned from reading things online.
