Stop and Smell the Orchards — Dean is Back From his European Sojourn!

Wake up! You’re in charge of the show today! It’s an all-calls Saturday! Dean is back from Paris — no, not Texas, the other one! — to answer all your questions about your home.  Today’s first caller recently did a home renovation that’s nearing completion, and received a letter from the Orange County Tax Association asking to itemize each of the things she did to improve her home, because her contractor pulled a permit — will it raise her property taxes?  Our next caller is the former president of the Orchard Society and wants to plug this weekend’s Santa Barbra International Orchard Show. Go check out those bulbs and blooms!  Another caller has a property tax question, wanting to know if her new deck extension with living space underneath will increase that annual, unavoidable payment. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
