Tommy Brannock joins Loring Woodriff Real Estate Associates

Recently she has been an active member of Bozart Gallery in Charlottesville, Palette Gallery in Stanardsville, Shenandoah Valley Art Center, Central Virginia Watercolor Guild, Piedmont Pastelists, and Miniature Painters, Sculptors and Gravers of Washington D.C. In 2013 she was juried into Smithsonian Annamarie Sculpture Gardens Art Center in Maryland, International Miniature MPSGS in Washington D.C. and Rehoboth Gallery, Maryland with an honor-

Sacred Headwaters is a multimedia piece featuring National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Wade Davis and photographer Paul Colangelo on the fate of the Sacred Headwaters in

northern Canada. The shared birthplace of three salmon rivers, the traditional territory of the Tahltan First Nation, and home to an incredible ecosystem of large mammals, the Sacred Headwaters is at risk of losing all that makes it sacred to resource extraction. • The Staunton Show will feature a series of short films, including Reynaldo. Reynaldo lives in the Amazon Rainforest. He used to cut down trees and farm the land to survive. He learned the hard way that it was not a sustainable way to live. He saw his land turn barren and his crops die. Then he woke up. He changed the way he worked and began planting trees. Then he learned how to farm in balance with the forest. Now he travels all over the region helping others to do the same. Other short films at the Staunton show will include: • A Brief History of the 5cent Bag Tax. When your city is overflowing with plastic bags, how will you react? Jack Green, head of the Department of the Environment, is on a mission to rid the city of its plastic bag scourge in this short film by DCbased DunkYourBagel promoting reusable bags to protect the environment. • Backyard. Backyard tells the stories of five people in four states, all with very different backgrounds and perspectives, but all at odds with the natural gas extraction occurring around them. Despite their differences, unnerving similarities emerge from their shared experiences with the massive unseen entity that is “the industry.” Brief, animated interludes remind us to ask the bigger picture questions as well. Film content is appropriate for everyone. Tickets are $10 each night.Purchase tickets in advance or for more information, visit www.wildvirginia.org.

SPCA asks that Clinic attendees bring all dogs on a leash and all cats in a carrier. Pet owners will need to show proof of current rabies vaccine in order to receive a three-year vaccine. The clinic is first come, first served and limited to vaccine and microchips available. The microchips include a lifetime registration. This clinic is made possible with support from Zoetis Pet Health. “One in three pets will get lost in their lifetime and proper identification is their quickest ticket home,” says Lisa Lane, Director of Marketing and Development at the Charlottesville-Albemarle SPCA. “We are happy to provide these three important services at an affordable price to help keep pets in our community healthy, safe and with their families.” The mission of the Charlottesville-Albemarle SPCA is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for the lost, abandoned, and homeless animals of the City of Charlottesville and the County of Albemarle and to increase the number of these animals being placed in appropriate, loving, and permanent homes through adoptions, foster care, and outreach, and to set a standard of excellence and leadership in shelter animal care, humane education, and progressive animal welfare programs.

will offer the community a lot of new idea and get them in touch with local businesses.” A festival going on its 41st year is a festival the community loves and supports. Corbin Snow, co-owner of Snow’s Garden Center on Avon Street Extended, remembers attending as a child, back when it was held at the Cage, a University of Virginia facility next to U-Hall on Emmett Street. The festival highlight for five-year old Corbin? Playing in the hot tub one vendor had on display. Snow’s has been a festival participant “since the inception of the show” says co-owner Scott Price. He remembers the Cage era too. “Back in those days, we’d have to shovel snow just to get in the front doors,” he says. “That was a challenging situation to have a home and garden show in. The Cage was basically a big warehouse with no heat. Now it’s a really wonderful event in a great location, on the Downtown Mall.” Whether what’s needed is a handsome new roof, patio, garden or kitchen, or just a plain vanilla repair job,

CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM

The Blue Ridge Home Builders Association’s (BRHBA) 41st Home & Garden Festival, April 4-6, makes the Main Street Arena on the Downtown Mall the place to dream and plan and plot, to chat with local home and garden professionals, pick up a few ideas, and figure out how to make them happen. With 80 booths featuring everything from flooring to roofing options, plus food and drink tastings, door prizes and children’s activities, the festival is a gaze and graze event for homeowners, handymen, gardeners and fix-it-up chappies – for anyone eager to channel springtime energy into a renovated kitchen or retiled bathroom. Landscapers, floor and window specialists, interior and exterior designers and other experts will be on hand for this annual event, the largest and only trade show of its kind in Central Virginia. Blue Ridge Homebuilder’s Association Executive Vice-President Kristin O’Connell Sorokti estimates that about a 1,000 people attended last year’s show.

“We want to double that this year,” Sorokti says, “because we have a brand new venue, the Main Street Arena. We are really excited about this opportunity to partner with the Downtown Business Association and the Arena. We believe that the Festival will draw a big crowd because it’s coinciding with the City Market. This is a great opportunity to reach people who are out in April, when the community is ready to start thinking about home improvement.” BRHBA was founded in 1964 to “advocate for the homebuilding industry in this area,” Sorokti says. “We are a membership association that provides educational opportunities for our members, networking opportunities, and other opportunities to help them grow their businesses.” “A lot of the vendors may have new technology and new innovations that we haven’t seen yet,” she continued, “especially in the areas of green building and sustainability. A lot of our seminars will be catered toward green building and energy efficiency. They

Central Virginia residents have many fine handymen, craftsmen, and artisans to choose from. “I’ve been going for the last 20 years off and on,” says Kevin Blair of The Blair Company, a local remodeling and maintenance company. “I like to go and see the latest and greatest building techniques and materials and methods. It’s kind of interesting to see what’s on the cutting edge, and also I get creative ideas from what other vendors have done with mockups and displays and things.” For Blair and other building and landscape pros, the festival is a place to meet old friends, colleagues, and clients. “I run into a lot of fellow business owners and people I’ve known and dealt with over the years,” he says, “so it’s kind of a social event, too.” Jerry Bledsoe is a third generation owner of Robert Bledsoe Building Company, his grandfather founded it in 1944. “We decided this is a good opportunity to give the individual homeowner our products and services.

This will be the 14th festival in a row for Darren Giacalone, owner of Charlottesville’s Roof Top Services. “Being a local business, I think it’s important to be there to meet existing and future customers,” Giacalone says. “We’ll show probably ten different types of roofs that are out there for the homeowner to consider.” Virginia natives Trevor Payton and Chad Hommel use their horticultural skills and artistic vision in landscaping, ornamental gardening, stonework, and turf management. The two men founded Charlottesville’s Zenscapes, they say, to “take landscaping to the next level.” That was just a couple of years ago. “Since we’re a young company, the festival is a very good opportunity to put our face in front of the community,” Hommel says. “We plan on having a simple ornamental garden on display and some literature outlining what we do.”

Archeologists in Israel found a hearth full of ash and charred bone in a cave in Israel this January, evidence that humans may have built cooking fires as early as 300,000 years ago. The hearth and grill shop Wooden Sun, which opened in 2010 in the IX Building on 2nd Street SE in Charlottesville, adapts this innovative Stone Age survival technique for a rather more sophisticated, 21st century clientele. “My partner’s been in this business for 30+ years; we formed a partnership in 2009,” says company co-owner Jonathan Schnyer. “We sell fireplaces and stoves – wood, gas, electric and pellet, and the parts and accessories you need to keep safe and cozy. In the winter, we specialize in fireplace projects. In the summertime, we’ve been getting into outdoor kitchens and high end grill business.” Wooden Sun installs and maintains them all.

candescent bulbs disappearing from store shelves and LED bulbs taking their place, lighting is a topic of conversation these days. Batteries Plus salesman Alfred Wanderlingh will lead a seminar on green energy lighting solutions for the home. With incandescent bulbs harder and harder to find, people are interested in saving money on their electric bills, Wanderlingh says, but “they want information.” Wanderlingh’s talk is intended “to make it easy for people to make the switch” to LED lighting, even if they’re nervous about how it might change the look of their home. “I want to discuss how putting in energy-efficient lighting applications

right off the bat can benefit the homeowner,” Wanderlingh says. “It allows them to try out the bulbs before they put them all throughout their house. A lightbulb that’s on more than ten hours a day is a good place to start with an energy efficient lightbulb if you’re not sure about switching.” The University of Virginia Credit Union will offer two workshops, one on heat pumps, and another on using one’s home as equity. The second session will address “mortgage, refinance, home equity and Power Saver loans,” the Credit Union’s Rebecca Cardwell says, delving into various ways to use home equity to finance improvements that increase the home’s value.

• Check your credit report. Credit reports offer a snapshot of how the world views your “creditability.” Credit scores range between 300 points and 850 points, and most fall between 600 and 750. A score above 700 usually suggests good credit management. 3 You can request a free copy of your credit report once each year from each of three major credit-reporting agencies--Equifax, Experian and TransUnion--at AnnualCreditReport.com.

Manage Your Income And Expenses

Keeping Financially Fit ARTICLE WRITTEN BY: WEALTH MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS, INC. COURTESY OF: ERIC F. PARKER, CFP®, WEALTH ADVISOR BRANCH NAME: MORGAN STANLEY - CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA • (434) 220-3809

CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM

chieving financial success is no simple matter. It takes hard work, perseverance and adherence to strategies of saving, investing and managing your finances. Just as there are good habits associated with staying physically fit, there are also best practices involved with keeping financially fit. Simple strategies such as using debt wisely, taking advantage of tax-advantaged investment vehicles, and monitoring spending habits all go a long way toward helping you achieve your personal, business and financial goals. Consider the “financially fit” best practices below. If you are not already doing them, consider how they could improve your financial picture.

Reduce And Manage Debt • Consider how much you spend on debt service for mortgages, auto loans, credit cards, and student or other loans. Lenders typically look at

two metrics when deciding whether or not to extend credit: the front-end and back-end ratios. The front-end ratio shows what percentage of your income goes toward housing expenses, including mortgage payments, real estate taxes, homeowner’s insurance and association dues. The back-end ratio shows what portion of your income is needed to cover all of your monthly debt obligations, including housing, credit card bills, car loans, student loans and other debt service. Most lenders look for a front-end ratio of no more than 28 percent and a back-end ratio of 36 percent or less. 1 • Develop a plan for eliminating credit card debt. Credit card debt is one of the most expensive debts you can carry. Interest rates often top 18 percent on existing balances. Paying off just $100 more per month on a $5,000 balance could pay off the entire balance in 32 months instead

• Set a budget and track monthly spending. This is one of the most effective ways to control your costs. The simple act of recording expenses forces you to think about them and to see exactly how much you are spending on a given item on a monthly or annual basis. A $5 latte at the local coffee shop may seem insignificant on its own, but if you buy one five days a week, that adds up to over $100 per month and $1,200 per year. • Pay bills on time using online recurring services. Online bill payment saves time and postage, and lets you avoid late fees by automating payments for many services. Timely bill payment also factors in your credit score. According to FICO, credit history accounts for about 35 percent of your credit score. 4 • Cancel recurring expenses you don’t use. Many services today are purchased on a subscription basis, with monthly charges and automated annual renewals. That includes club memberships, gyms, newspapers, magazines or online publications, not to mention cable TV and phone service. Taken individually, none of these expenses may amount to a lot, but when looked at collectively over the course of a year, they can be surprisingly high. Consider how often you use these services or if they can be renegotiated with the provider by reducing elective options.

Save More By Taking Advantage Of Tax-Deferred Accounts • Contribute the maximum to your 401(k) or other employer-sponsored retirement plan. Your company retirement savings

plan offers one of the best ways to save for retirement. Contributions to traditional plans are tax deductible, and earnings are tax-deferred. And in many plans, employers will match a portion of your contributions. In a 401(k) plan, employees can contribute up to $17,500 in 2014. Individuals aged 50 or older can contribute an additional $5,500. 5 • Contribute to an IRA. Contributions to a traditional IRA may be deductible, so they may reduce your taxable income. Contributions to a Roth IRA are after tax, but distributions are tax-free when you retire. Whether or not you can contribute to a Roth is based on your Adjusted Gross Income. Traditional and Roth IRA contribution limits for the 2013 tax year--which may be made up until April 15, 2014--are $5,500 per individual and $6,500 for those aged 50 or older.6 Note that deductibility of traditional IRA contributions phases out above certain income levels, depending upon your filing status and if you or your spouse are covered by an employer-sponsored retirement plan. • Look into a Health Savings Account (HSA). If you have a high-deductible health plan, you may be able to contribute to a HSA. These accounts let you set aside pre-tax money to pay for health care costs not covered under your plan. The maximum contribution to an HSA for 2014 is $3,350 if you have single coverage, or $6,550 if you have family coverage. No income limits apply to HSAs, and funds do not have to be used in a given year. HSAs are offered through banks or other financial services companies, and may be available as part of your employer benefits package. For more information, see IRS publication 969 Health Savings Accounts and Other Tax-Favored Health Plans. 7

Plan For The Future • Set aside money for emergencies and retirement. Whether through contributions to an employer plan or automated payroll deductions to a savings or investment account, making regular, systematic contributions is the easiest and most effective way to save over time. And when it comes to saving, time is your ally because of the power of compounding; so the earlier you start, the more you’ll save. • Create a will. Especially if you have children, a will serves not only to specify executors and beneficiaries of your estate, but also to designate guardians for minors. If you die without a will and have minor children, the probate court will appoint

• Review your beneficiaries annually. This includes your will, insurance policies and retirement accounts. Keep in mind that an account with a designated beneficiary is not included in your estate for distribution purposes. It is distributed to the designated beneficiary. So you will want to make sure your account beneficiaries are coordinated with named heirs in your will. n Footnotes/Disclaimers
