			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are taking the plunge and commiting to re-windowing the majority of our house. We&#8217;ve only lived in Riverbend since November of 2007 (almost 2 years), but it&#8217;s time to stop wasting energy and money and chalk up to the expense of new windows.</p>
<p>We weren&#8217;t quite sure what the Riverbend Approval process was, but after we selected the windows and vendor we contacted the Management Group via a letter stating our intentions.</p>
<p>Some of the rules we must follow are:<br />
Replace all Casement windows with Casement windows. We are not allowed to have vertical closure.<br />
The outside color of the window frames must be brown.<br />
Receive approval from the board (or board member).</p>
<p>We are also replacing all 3 sets of sliding glass doors, since we lose a ton of energy through the doors too.</p>
<p>The reason I am posting this information is a) for informative reasons and b) so people can walk on by our place and see the difference.</p>
<p>Window replacements &#8220;supposedly&#8221; have an 85% ROI (return on investment) associated with them, as long as you purchase good quality windows.</p>
<p>The windows we have purchased are Marvin Infinity Windows (fiberglass). The installation should occur some time in mid-July over a 2-day period.</p>
<p>Our extra bonus is the $1500 tax credit that the government is providing via the Tax Act 2009!</p>
<p>Feel free to respond with any questions you may have.</p>
<p>My best, Christine</p>
