Remember a legacy in is not just for you but for the generations to come. This victory is over 120 years late but was won based on the actions that took place over 100 years ago. What are you doing to build your legacy?

Los Angeles county officials have returned ownership of prime California beachfront property to descendants of a Black couple who ran a resort for African Americans in the 1920s until the local government seized their land.

The LA board of supervisors on Tuesday unanimously approved the transfer of the parcels in area once known as Bruce’s Beach in the city of Manhattan Beach. The site, steps away from one of southern California’s most pristine beaches, is now a county lifeguard training headquarters and a parking lot, and the transfer allows the county to lease back the property with an option to buy it for millions of dollars.

The successful transfer, which was years in the making, is a victory in the fight for reparations in California and is a win for racial justice in a beach city that remains less than 1% Black today.

Benefits that help keep a strong housing market.

Congress is threatening tax incentives for homeowners, like the mortgage interest deduction and the state and local property tax deduction. These incentives are critical for a strong housing market that creates jobs and builds stable communities.

Take action to tell Congress to reform our tax code AND protect middle class homeowners. http://bit.ly/taxreformcallforaction

Hello dream pantry! Love the double glass doors that allow you to quickly see what you lack. There is also a ladder for convenience.

Love the design of the jack and jill sinks but did you notice the laundry baskets underneath the sink? It's a nice hidden touch.

You can still enjoy the outdoors as the weather starts too cool down. Just warm up your space and make it cozy! You can also add a fire pit to set it off.

Love pocket doors! You can tuck them away at any given time. Would you add a pocket door to your space or do you already have one?

Pumpkin time! If you want to get into the fall season without going the typical orange and brown route, you can decorate with some fun pumpkin pots and succulents. These are great to set on the exterior of your front porch or deck.
