Whether you like your coffee hot or iced, black or with cream, October 1st is a day to mark on your calendar. It's International Coffee Day! Coffee is said to have been discovered by goat herders in the 9th century. Then, it was popularized in the Middle East in the 15th century. Today, it's an important part of cultures worldwide — and that's certainly worth celebrating. Our real estate agents recommend celebrating at one of these Klamath Falls coffee shops.

• Brevada Brewhouse: 2229 N. Eldorado Ave., Klamath Falls, OR 97601
  Brevada Brewhouse is a modern cafe serving everything from coffee to local beer. Their traditional espresso is some of the best in town, and they're also known for their pour-overs. The Snickerdoodle is a specialty coffee drink made with vanilla, butter, and cinnamon. 
  
  Brevada Brewhouse is a great place to stop mid-day since they have a good selection of sandwiches and salads. They have an outdoor, patio seating area, several beers on tap, and great WiFi service if you need to get some work done.

You've likely seen the TV shows where house flippers strike it rich, buying old homes on the cheap, doing minimal repairs, and then turning around and selling the home at a profit. While these shows are entertaining, imagine if those renovations have been completed with cheap materials? If you're considering a flipped home from Klamath Falls homes for sale, you want to exercise caution.

To be sure, not all flipped houses are a bad deal. Quite often, buyers can find a newly renovated home that meets all their needs for style and appliances. Further, flipped homes may be competitively priced. They may also be in an area with a lively real estate market where homes sell quickly and are deemed to be good investments. Plus, flipped houses are ready to move in. These can be real inducements to take the plunge.

But before you do, here's some advice on what to look for if you're considering buying a home that has been flipped.

Many new homeowners prioritize buying appliances, furniture, and garden supplies when they move in. But if you already have the basic items, the next items on the list will be smart home tech. These internet-connected devices can be controlled from anywhere and perform tasks on-demand or at scheduled times. And you don't need to be a tech wizard to install or operate them. Our real estate agents share different smart home gadgets you can install in your new home to add real convenience and make your life easier.

• Smart Speakers
  What's more convenient than taking out your phone to check the weather or search the internet? Using your voice and having a smart speaker do your bidding. Smart speakers are one of the first smart home gadgets that people used in their homes. Alexa and Google Assistant are the market leaders in this space. Smart speakers go beyond playing music. They can give you a news debriefing, keep your shopping list, set reminders, read your recipes, make phone calls, dim lights, and more.
