Before: After almost three decades, the Grogans had grown tired of the finishes and other features in their en suite bathroom. The floral wallpaper and ceramic tile flooring had to go. And the gray jetted step-up tub was a hazard. “It was always dangerous to get in and out of,” Patty says.

The shower was spacious but also out of date with frosted glass and aging tile. Back-to-back wood vanities with a large double-sided mirror and a wraparound countertop seemed especially from another era. (See “before” photo below.) And each vanity had only two drawers and a cabinet.
 
 
After: The design-build team took the former space down to the studs. It leaned on a bright and fresh color scheme to create a light and airy feel. The white shiplap and trim were painted in a mildew-resistant semigloss paint (Regal Select White by Benjamin Moore). The walls have a soft gray-green undertone (Sebring White by Benjamin Moore) that complements the new sage green vanities, a color that’s repeated throughout the Grogans’ home. “Also, my backyard has a lot of trees,” Patty says. “I just love that color, and wanted to break up all the white in the bathroom.”

What is a Cashback Mortgage? - Luisa Hough

*Picture credit and information all to Luisa Hough*

"As the name implies, a cashback mortgage is similar to a standard mortgage, except that you receive a lump sum of cash upon closing. This lump sum will either be a fixed amount of money or a percentage of the mortgage amount, usually between 1-7%, depending on the mortgage term selected.

How you use the cash is entirely up to you. Some of the most common reasons to secure a cashback mortgage are to:

  • Cover closing costs.
  • Buy new furniture.
  • Renovate your property.
  • Supplement cashflow.
  • Consolidate higher-interest debt. 

You can use the cash for anything you like. It’s tax-free and paid to you directly once the mortgage closes".

  • Understanding the cost of a cashback mortgage.
  • Eligibility for a cashback mortgage
  • breaking your mortgage term early
  • Get independent mortgage advice.
