Happy Día de los Muertos, when the veil between the living and the dead is at its thinnest! Did you know: 💀 Dia de Los Muertos originated in ancient Mesoamerica and was celebrated by the Aztec, Maya, and Toltec peoples. In a way, it's actually a celebration of life. That's because it's believed new life stems from death — it's all cyclical! Marigolds are often placed on altars and around graves at this time. Their sweet scent and bright petals lead spirits from the cemetery back to their family's home. For more fun facts, check out the Smithsonian's Day of the Dead rundown: https://lnkd.in/eHAJFy2T

An appraisal determines the home's true value and helps protect you and the lender. The appraiser is an unbiased, trained and licensed professional who does an in-person review of the home and looks at "comps" of recently sold homes to establish its real worth. 🏡💰
