Kids and adults for that matter moving to a new house can be an exciting experience. But one thing people don't always look forward to is decorating their rooms at the new place. The key however, is to look at this as an opportunity and not something that needs to be rushed or put off until later. This is essential because once a child's room has been painted, you can't just go and paint it again if they decide they don't like the color. Here are 7 great tips that can help you and your kids decorate their bedrooms in a new house.1. Letting Kids Pick Out Their Own WallpaperLetting children pick out their own wallpaper will give them a sense of ownership over their new bedroom. From geometric patterned prints to floral prints, there are thousands of options out there when it comes to wall...

Last week’s economic reports included readings on home price growth from S&P Case-Shiller Home Price Indices, data on new home sales, and the University of Michigan’s Consumer Sentiment Index. Weekly readings on mortgage rates and jobless claims were also published.  Case-Shiller: Home Price Growth Slower, but Prices Aren’t FallingNational home prices rose by a seasonally-adjusted annual pace of 19.80 percent in August, which was incrementally lower than July’s year-over-year home price growth rate. Analysts said that rising mortgage rates caused some buyers to leave the market and eased demand in areas where bidding wars drove home prices beyond market value in some areas.The S&P Case-Shiller 20-City Home Price Index reported a seasonally-adjusted annual pace of  19.70 percent growth f...
