Lawn technology gifts for Mom and Dad (BPT) - Whether it's for Father's Day, Mother's Day, a birthday or just to show your appreciation, it's always a struggle to come up with gift ideas for your parents. This is especially the case when parents claim they have everything they need and prefer to do things their own way.

One of those things they'll always have to do is take care of the lawn - mowing, trimming, fertilizing and more mowing. Whether they like it like it or not, it's a weekly chore.

So this year, why not think about getting them something that eases their routine?

Whether Mom and Dad are somewhat behind the times when it comes to technology, or they're the ones who wait in line to get the latest smartphone, there are gamechanging breakthroughs in lawn care technology that are making a big splash across the country. And this just might be the gift idea you've been looking for.

An evolution in lawn care Maintaining a lawn takes a lot of work, and as you grow older, you realize this more than ever. At times, the satisfaction in doing the work yourself may start to wear thin.

The good news is that technology similar to that which goes into self-driving cars, along with the sensors that allow new cars to park themselves, are being harnessed for lawn care.

That's right - a robotic mower is now available that automatically cuts your grass.

Words not normally associated with lawn care - such as effortless and hands free - are now the secret to a great looking yard!

The Automower(R) revolution Husqvarna, the world's largest producer of robotic mowers, recently brought three new models to its lineup of Automowers(R). Guided by the boundary wires that define the borders of your yard, flowerbeds and other landscaping features, the Husqvarna Automower(R) is designed to easily maneuver over a variety of terrain,

including inclines up to 25 degrees (depending on the model) and narrow spaces.

The automated system is amazing in itself, but one of the things many owners are most surprised at is how the Automower(R) can precisely cut grass even in the midst of a downpour. Add to this its silent operation and your parents will no longer need to wait for the right time to mow.

While the technology may be impressive, this is far from just

Paint your home’s exterior like a pro COURTESY OF METROCONNECTION

Painting is an inexpensive way to transform just about any space. Many people paint the interiors of their homes, but home exteriors also can undergo dramatic makeovers with fresh coats of paint. Timing the job right and heeding some tips from professionals and do-it-yourselfers who have tread the painting path before you can make the job go smoothly.

Consider the time of year Consider local weather patterns and forecasts when planning an exterior painting project. Choose a time of year when there is little rain and low humidity, such as autumn. Keep in mind that the paint will require a couple of days to dry completely and cure, and that can be difficult in damp weather.

Don’t hamper the final outcome with poor timing.

Prepare the painting surfaces Resist the temptation to start painting straight away. Paint may not adhere to unprepared surfaces, and dirt and other debris may show through and mar the

finished product. Repainting a home’s exterior will likely involve removing peeling or chipping paint prior to making your first strokes. Wear protective gear when scraping, sanding or brushing old paint, as such tasks can generate dust that can be dangerous to inhale, particularly if the old paint contains lead.

Employ a chlorine bleach solution to kill any mildew and to scrub any dirt from the house. In addition, repair any cracks or imperfections. For example, if you’re painting stucco, you may have to fill in any pitting or holes. Use this opportunity to inspect caulking around windows and doors. Recaulk as needed to seal up drafty areas or those that may cause water infiltration prior to painting.

Prime and cover stains It may be a little extra work, but apply a quality primer as the first coat to hide any imperfections, such as wood knots or discoloration from weathering.

Primer provides a smooth, even surface upon which to put your paint

color. Once you have applied the primer, test your paint color in a small, inconspicuous spot to see how the color looks in the daylight. You do not want to paint the entire home only to find out you dislike the color.

Try these painting techniques Rent a paint sprayer for large surface areas. The sprayer will produce a more uniform application and is less time-consuming than painting everything with a brush or roller. Make sure you’ve chosen a highquality paint, as the added expense is worth it if the paint lasts longer and coats more evenly. Also, if you have purchased multiple cans of paint, mix them all in one large bucket to ensure the same color; otherwise, the colors may not match perfectly.

The experts at HGTV recommend working your way from top to bottom in a smooth, controlled manner,

overlapping each stroke by eight inches. Trim and hard-to-reach areas should be left for brush work so you can maintain control over your tools.

If you are painting areas like steps or staircases, consider adding a little finegrain sand to the paint to improve traction, as paint can be slippery when wet.

If painting your home’s exterior is beyond your capabilities, hire a professional. He or she will get the work done in a timely manner, and you can rest assured that the job will be done correctly.

Helping first-time home buyers get from 'I can't' to 'I can'

(BPT) - Finally! The economy is improving, interest rates are low and many consumers now find themselves in a great position financially to become a first-time homeowner. There's a small problem though for some locations around the country - the booming real estate market is resulting in rising home prices and increased competition for the most desirable properties.

The S&P/Case-Shiller national home-price index recently estimated that 2016 prices are within four percent of the peak in 2006. In some areas, low inventories around the country are making the situation even more challenging.

These conditions are introducing first-time buyers to common challenges and frustrations while searching for their dream home. "Don't get discouraged," says Travis Peace, executive director of mortgage at USAA Bank. "Buying a home requires some fortitude and the process intimidates many -not just those doing it for the first time." As a result, Peace says it's easy to concentrate too much on home buying "can'ts" rather than "can-dos," and he offers this advice on how to overcome some common barriers.

"I Can't" No. 1: I can't figure out the homebuying process.

Peace notes that it's essential to do research and to be equipped with basic information, but also be willing to ask for help when needed. For example, an experienced real estate agent can keep a buyer apprised of everything from area sales trends to the latest changes in state and federal laws that could impact a mortgage application.

"This is where experienced, licensed professionals can help," Peace says. "Real estate agents can be an advocate for the buyer throughout the entire process."

In addition, free tools like USAA's Real Estate Rewards Network can connect buyers with an agent and even provide rewards based on the sale price of

the home.

"I Can't" No. 2: I can't find the perfect home for my family.

Finding the perfect home may not be realistic, but shoppers can find the right home. Personal situations will dictate buyers' ability to wait for a home in a particular neighborhood or design style to come on the market, but not everything has to be left to chance.

Peace says the key is to set realistic expectations and not fixate on negatives that can be changed.

"Whether it's the number of bedrooms or distance to work or school, it's alright to have some nonnegotiables. However, buyers should be willing to be flexible on things that can be relatively easy to change, like paint colors or landscaping."

"I Can't" No. 3: I can't afford a 20 percent down payment.

percent. Veterans Affairs (VA) loans don't require any down payment. While those programs are often great options for consumers who qualify, Peace notes that buyers should keep an eye on their potential total monthly payment.

"Some of these loans include fees and private mortgage insurance (PMI) that could significantly impact your overall cost," Peace says.

Even private lenders are offering more competitive loan options. For example, USAA Bank's Conventional 97 loan allows borrowers to acquire a mortgage with only three percent down and the bank pays the PMI costs.

Scott McEniry, a USAA member, recently moved into his new home with the help of the Conventional 97 loan. "It felt like a lifeline had been thrown to me as suddenly a house purchase was within reach again," McEniry says.

Whether a house-hunting novice or seasoned expert, Peace underscores that being informed, getting the right help and having a healthy dose of determination are the best ways to turn a dream home into a reality.

Putting 20 percent down on a home has become more of a guideline than a rule. Today, not being able to put 20 percent down does not mean buying a home is out of reach.

Peace notes that COURTESY OF METROCONNECTION depending on a buyer's Home improvement projects can inadvertently expose homeowners to financial situation, there hidden dangers. For example, lead paint may be lurking underneath may be a responsible way layers of existing paint in older homes. Exposure to lead dust or fumes to get into your new home may cause brain damage or other adverse health effects, especially in without putting 20 percent children or pregnant women. It is essential that homeowners control down. their exposure to lead or other hazardous substances through the use Government-sponsored of protective equipment, such as a properly fitted respirator. If lead is loan programs from the discovered, it may require professional containment and cleanup.

Federal Housing Authority, Contact your local health authority if you discover or suspect you have Fannie Mae and Freddie discovered lead paint or other hazardous materials in your home.

Mac provide loan options that require down payments as low as three

6 deck dos for creating your own deck escape

(BPT) - No longer simply a rectangle attached to the back of your home, today's decks are built in creative designs to make them an ideal place to relax and de-stress. These six simple ideas will allow you to use the workability of modern decking to achieve an outdoor living space that's the perfect "deck-escape" for you.

1. Show off some curves For years, decks have been simple rectangular shapes built with traditional lumber, but with advances in decking products, more complicated designs are now possible. Now you can build decks in virtually any shape - from giant leaves to free-flowing curves. These decks lack the severity of sharp angles, and create a more casual feel perfect for relaxation. Many of these decks are built with high performance woodplastic composite decking, which can be bent and shaped with simple heating. Composite boards, like MoistureShield composite decking, are also easy to rip and route, which allows them to fit virtually any design and personalize your backyard retreat.

2. Add some H2-Oh!

easy way to add the mystique of flowing water.

Whether it's a simple bird bath or an elaborate fountain, adding a water feature to your deck is an ideal way to enhance its appeal. With its clear beauty and gentle, flowing sound, water is uniquely soothing. Simply fill a wine barrel or pot with water and a few aquatic plants - and maybe some fish for a signature piece on your deck. An affordable pump kit installed in one of these containers provides a fast and

3. Landscape for the perfect escape To create an ultra-inviting deckescape, integrate landscaping into your design. This could be as simple as adding a few planters with fragrant flowers to soothe your senses, or as comprehensive as turning your deck into an extension of your garden by working your deck design specifically around trees or shrubs. With better workability than wood, modern materials like composite decking can be curved to seamlessly encircle a tree or frame a garden.

4. Raise the curtain on elegant design Suspending fabric over your deck is a simple, low-cost way to create an inviting retreat space. Fabric can be hung in a straight line or draped from an overhead hoop, pergola or trellis to create a private canopy. Patterned fabrics showcase your personal taste and offer welcome shade, while sheer fabrics add elegance and provide a balance between privacy and preserving views.

5. Achieve off-the-wall creativity with a planted wall

6. Get on board with a boardwalk For the ultimate escape from the everyday routine, build a low-lying boardwalk that leads from your deck to a secret retreat hidden by hedges, shrubs or lattice screens. This retreat space does not have to be over-thetop. It can be as simple as a small platform deck with a comfortable chair or hammock. To create your boardwalk to paradise, look for composite decking brands that can be installed with ground and water contact. "Highperformance composites won't rot, crack or fail even when fully submerged," says Brent Gwatney, senior vice president of MoistureShield composite decking. "Some composites are even made with up to 95 percent recycled content, so you can rest well knowing you've made an environmentally-friendly choice."

428506-1

A fun and unusual way to create an

open-air retreat is a wall of plants. For decks attached to the house, hanging planters along the height and width of an adjacent wall creates a dramatic visual. Or, a simple freestanding wall along one of the deck's edges can be built for hanging plants. Choose leafy plants like elephant ears or ferns for a relaxing green backdrop, or add flowers for a pop of your favorite colors. You can even plant herbs for a tasty addition to your grilled recipes.
