[ REALTOR Report ]

Meet the 2010 White Mountain Board of REALTORS Scholarship Recipients The White Mountain Board of Realtors has been providing scholarships for deserving graduates since the 1980’s. Money is raised at the monthly membership meetings of the Board through the sale of raffle tickets. Prizes for the raffle are provided by the Affiliates of the Board. Many thanks to all who support this effort!!

The White Mountain Board of Realtors is proud to provide to four graduating Kennett High School students scholarships totaling $3,000. All four are exceptional people who have proven themselves valuable as members of their school and our greater community.

Chris Andreani: Chris is a member of the Spanish and National Honor Society, has been on the lacrosse team since 2006, captain for two seasons and was voted the Most Valuable Player in 2009.

He is a member of Key Club, was Junior Class President and is now Student Body President. He served on the Principal Search Committee as a student representative. He is a very good student and thanks Kennett High School and its teacher for his success.

Camron Eldon: Camron is a young man who believes that hard work and an optimistic outlook on life are his keys to success. Thomas Jefferson once said “I am a great believer in luck and find the harder I work, the more of it I have.” Cam is a good student, has been active in basketball and other sports, and will be attending Thompson School of Applied Science at UNH. He hopes to one day own and operate his own business.

Pictured L-R: Chris Andreani, Camron Eldon, Riley Lambert, Karl Seibel WMBOR President and Emily George

Riley Lambert: An amazing young man who started his own lawn maintenance business at the age of 12. After 6 years, he has 35 clients!! He has been very successful in school, has been a school leader thru DECA and the Key Clubs. He is a member of the National Honor Society and has received the NHIAA Scholar Athlete Award. He has lettered in 3 sports and been President of the Student Body. He is extremely motivated and self directed. He will be majoring in business and finance.

Emily George: “Why try to fit in when you’re born to stand out?” is a Key Club quote that Emily George lives by. She has given over 4000 hours of community service over the last 7 years, including actively serving in the top positions for our local, state and New England district Key Club. She has been on the golf team, was the Kennett Eagle Mascot and a member of the Prom Committee. Emily is an achiever who knows that hard work pays off.

All are deserving students who we wish the best of luck to in the years to come!!

We are proud to be able to help make their dreams come true!!

Four Ways To Improve Your Home’s Beauty & Resale Value (ARA) - In a tough housing market, homeowners want to improve their home’s beauty and functionality, while adding resale value. This may include choosing products that reduce maintenance, save energy, improve appearance and offer protection from the damaging forces of nature. Here are some tips for problem areas that could benefit from the latest home solutions: Timeless decks with natural looks In the past decade, alternatives to wood decking products have made many claims of low-maintenance. However, if your deck has stains and is in an environment that breeds mold and mildew, maybe it’s time to look at some new options on the market. If your decking product contains wood fibers, it may be absorbing stains and getting scratched in everyday use.

“There are low-maintenance products that give homeowners a rich selection of deeper deck shades, tropical hardwood looks and durable, sturdy railings that complement these colors,” says Mike Gori, deck expert for AZEK Building Products, maker of AZEK Deck. He says the secret is cellular PVC technology, which resists food stains - even red wine - and stands up to the most high energy kids, dogs or neighborhood

deck parties. Low-maintenance decks also increase your home’s value because they economically add living space and are easy to clean.

work and scrolled designs because of a high moisture environment, think again. There are natural looking materials that support plant life and won’t rot, split or warp, even with continuous watering and sunlight. For example, Walpole Woodworkers features the Freeport Collection of low-maintenance cellular vinyl boxes and planters that look like the real thing and have classic detail and lattice designs.

These durable items do not need liners and come with pre-drilled drainage holes. continued on page 34

Lattice entertain you If you think your outdoor planters and window boxes cannot have detailed lattice

Stay pumped, go green Following one of the wettest winters on record in many areas of the country, keeping your home safe from damaging flood waters is critical. Now, there are sump pumps that offer maximum protection, save energy and are very easy to install. They also feature backup battery pumps and alarms for extra protection in case of power outages. This increases peace of mind for homeowners and could be a make or break selling point.

The experts at WAYNE Pumps advise that if your sump pump is more than 10 years old, it may need to be replaced with new technology. “Our sump pump hydraulic expertise has evolved to where we can offer pumps that move more water faster using up to 50 percent less energy,” says President Joe Mauro. “We’ve also developed features like quieter operation and the new iSwitch that uses a microprocessor to sense rising

water levels before they could become a problem.” He points out that investment in a reliable sump pump and battery backup system is minor compared to the damage water can do to valuables, family heirlooms and your home’s resale value. Self-testing features to keep backup pumps in top shape and wireless alarms offer even more layers of protection for your home. For more information, visit www.waynepumps.com.

Repair cracks to prevent future damage A small crack in your driveway or cement steps can become a crater, due to harsh weather and temperature changes.

Crumbling concrete or cracked driveways can detract from curb appeal and reduce resale value.

However, if properly sealed with the right caulk product, your outdoor masonry or blacktop areas can be repaired without continuing to deteriorate. You can also seal off energy leaks and keep out damaging moisture, indoors and out, such as around windows, receptacles and under the door step. “We’ve been developing new caulks, such as our new RD 3000 advanced

sealant line formulated to move and remain flexible once cured, allowing more stability through climate changes or pressure,” says Jason Ringling, marketing director at Red Devil, Inc. He noted that driveways, concrete steps and walkways can experience movement from car and foot traffic and endure the freeze/thaw cycles of the seasons. “You need a durable sealant that stands up to the elements to prevent the damage from spreading,” he says. Always look for products specifically for concrete, blacktop, gutters and windows and doors. A simple caulk job reportedly can save you up to 20 percent in energy bills and big bucks in outdoor repairs.

Homeowners can make informed, smart choices about products that will improve their home’s resale value and add enjoyment to their current lifestyle.
