Eric G. and John Dudley are sitting down with the fabulous interior designer Wendy Glaister to spill the tea on staging your home like a pro. Whether you're trying to sell your place or just hosting a holiday bash that will make your relatives weep with envy, Wendy's got the inside scoop. Spoiler alert: it's all about the neutral palette, folks! Remember, beige isn’t just a color; it’s a lifestyle when it comes to real estate. After all, who doesn’t want to appeal to the masses, right? Sure, your eclectic art collection might scream ‘talented artist’, but to potential buyers, it might just say ‘please leave this house immediately’. So, if you’re curious about how to make your home feel less like a personal shrine and more like a blank canvas, you won’t want to miss this. But wait, there’s more! After we’ve solved all your staging dilemmas, Eric G. is diving into the world of water heaters with Gregg Holladay from Bradford White. And trust me, you’ll want to hear what he has to say about electric water heaters—spoiler: they might be going the way of the dodo. Yep, that’s right! If you're still rocking an ancient electric water heater, you might want to take a good look in the mirror and ask yourself some hard questions about your life choices. Turns out, the Department of Energy has some new rules coming down the pipeline that could mean big changes for homeowners. So if you don’t want to be left high and dry come 2029, you better tune in. We’ll break down everything you need to know about heat pump water heaters and how they can save your bacon (and your wallet) from impending doom. In summary, this episode is your one-stop shop for making your home market-ready and keeping your hot water flowing.
