Features You Must Look For When Buying Green Real Estate The eco-friendly features of green real estate are what make green properties so interesting for the investors and buyers. A simple house with green features can help the homeowner save lots of money by cutting down the need of many resources. For instance, the power saving green features can substantially bring down the electricity bills. Likewise, water saving attributes can ensure reduced water bills and so on. So, next time when you begin hunting for a suitable green property, do look for these green features. * The property must be properly insulated with recyclable materials. This would make sure that the house does not undergo extreme temperature fluctuations due to the outside climatic conditions. Besides, windows are known to be one of the major culprits here, as they cause transfer of heat and thus, lead to high heating and cooling bills. So, look for a house with double-pane windows with great insulating properties.
8 | YourAtHomeNow.com
* An environment friendly furnace is another feature of green real estate that would allow you to easily and cost-effectively heat the property. Make sure it has an efficient thermostat. * If a solar water heater is installed in the property, then you can be fully assured of getting hot water throughout the year without spending much. Usually, solar panels last for fifteen to twenty years. To get the most out of them, it is important to clean and maintain them regularly. Also, make sure that they have been installed in a place where they can receive unobstructed sunlight. * Green properties generally have water saving bathroom fixtures, such as low flow shower heads, water cisterns and faucets. So, see to it that the property you choose has water efficient features. If the house is located in any drought prone place, then continued on page 10

you should also make sure that it has a good sized water storage tank or device. * There should be a backyard, where you can create a nice kitchen garden of your own. Growing vegetables and herbs at home is a great step towards a green lifestyle. Considering this fact, even the architects and builders today design houses with enough space for the kitchen garden. With growing awareness about environment safety, most people now look for green features when buying real estate. This not only helps them play their role towards the nature, but also enhances the appeal, as well as value, of their property. Though, green homes and offices are usually more cost effective than traditional buildings, there are a few features, like installation of solar panels, wind turbines etc, that may require high set up costs. However, all these features offer many long term benefits in the form of better health and reduced utility bills. So, it does not matter even if one has to pay more for these additional green features. So, look for all these features when purchasing real estate and you are sure to enjoy a great deal.

NOTE BOOK
The 10 Easiest Ways To Green Your Home
By Ann Archer of MSN Real Estate
Being earth-friendly doesn’t require going solar or growing all your own food. There are plenty of easy ways to make a big difference. When it comes to the environment, being a good global citizen starts at your doorstep. From recycling to using alternative cleaning materials, minor changes at home can add up to real benefits for the planet, not to mention your own health and happiness. It may be a cliché, but the best way to be Earth-friendly is to cut down on what you consume and recycle whenever you can. The U.S. generates about 208 million tons of municipal solid waste a year, according to the National Institutes of Health. That’s more than 4 pounds per person per day. Every little bit helps; recycling just one glass bottle saves enough electricity to light a 100-watt bulb for four hours.
duced without potentially harmful pesticides and fertilizers.
2. Watch the temp. Almost half a home’s energy consumption is due to heating and cooling. Turn down the thermostat in cold weather and keep it higher in warm weather. Each degree below 68°F (20°C) during colder weather saves 3%-5% more heating energy, while keeping your thermostat at 78°F in warmer weather will save you energy and money. A programmable thermostat will make these temperature changes for you automatically. Clean your furnace’s air filter monthly during heavy usage. Consider a new furnace. Today’s furnaces are about 25% more Here are 10 more easy ways to green your home: efficient than they were in the 1980s. (And don’t forget to check out furnaces carrying the Energy Star label.) 1.

According to the Energy Star site, if just one in 10 homes used energy-efficient appliances, it 3. Save water.

compared to 3.5 gallons per flush for pre-1994 models. If you have an older model, adjust your float valve to admit less water into the toilet’s tank. Of course, you don’t need products to save water — behavioral changes also add up quickly: using a broom instead of the garden hose to clean your driveway can save 80 gallons of water and turning the water off when you brush your teeth will save 4.5 gallons each time. 4. Clean green. Stop buying household cleaners that are potentially toxic to both you and the environment. In his book, “The Safe Shopper’s Bible,” David Steinman suggests reading labels for specific, eco-friendly ingredients that also perform effectively. These include grain alcohol instead of toxic butyl cellosolve, commonly found in carpet cleaner and some window cleaners as a solvent; coconut or other plant oils rather than petroleum in detergents; and plant-oil disinfectants such as eucalyptus, rosemary or sage rather than triclosan, an antifungal agent found in soaps and deodorant. Or, skip buying altogether and make your own cleaning products. Use simple ingredients such as plain soap, water, baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), vinegar, washing soda (sodium carbonate), lemon juice and borax and save money at the same time. Check out these books by Annie Bertold-Bond for cleaning recipes: “Clean and Green” and “Better Basics for the Home.” 5. Let there be energy-efficient light. Compact Fluorescent Light bulbs (CFLs) use 66% less energy than a standard incandescent bulb and last up to 10 times longer. Replacing a 100-watt incandescent bulb with a 32-watt CFL can save $30 in energy costs over the life of the bulb. 6. Save a tree, use less paper. You can buy “tree-free” 100% post-consumer recycled paper for everything from greeting cards to toilet paper. Paper with a high post-consumer waste content uses less virgin pulp and keeps more waste paper out of landfills. Other tips: Remove yourself from junk mail lists. Each person will receive almost 560 pieces of junk mail this year, which adds up nationally to 4.5 million tons, according to the Native Forest Network. About 44% of all junk mail is thrown in the trash, unopened and unread, and ends up in a landfill. To stem the flow into your own home, contact the Direct Marketing Association’s Mail Preference Service at P.O. Box 643, Carmel, NY 10512, or download the online form. Opt out of credit card or insurance offers at OptOutPrescreen.com or by calling 888-567-8688, a single automated phone line maintained by the major credit bureaus. Buy unbleached paper. Many paper products, including Continued on page 14 May 2013 | 13

some made from recycled fibers, are bleached with chlorine. The bleaching process can create harmful byproducts, including dioxins, which accumulate in our air, water and soil over time.

Give Your Home A True Green Cleaning This Spring (BPT) - When you clean your house in the spring, you really want it to be clean. Dirt, dust and germs are banned, and all appliances, floors and walls are scrubbed clean. But is your house really clean, or have you traded dirt and germs for caustic and toxic chemicals found in most conventional cleaning products? Even some so-called natural cleansers can contain these same or similar nasty ingredients. And you would know this only if the manufacturer practices full disclosure of ingredients on their labels, which is not required on home care products. Think about it - when was the last time you saw a full ingredient listing on your spray cleaner? The best way to make sure your living space is clean and healthy is to use safe, natural cleaning products you create yourself, using natural and inexpensive ingredients you can pick up at any natural grocery store. It’s cost-effective, not difficult and, like the task of spring cleaning itself, it’s satisfying and rewarding. You can craft your own, home-spun versions of everything from carpet cleaner to furniture dusting polish - and have the satisfying assurance that you really are keeping your home clean and green. Whether you’re shopping for prepared natural cleaning solutions or making your own, keep in mind that the word “aromatherapy” is now being applied to everything scented - from dishwashing liquid to laundry detergent. The true practice of aromatherapy relies on using pure essential oils extracted from plants. These natural plant essences nurture us on mental, emotional, physical and even spiritual levels. House cleaning isn’t exactly a spiritual exercise, but adding the effects and properties of essential oils to your homemade household products can enhance the experience and the effectiveness of your task. Essential oils have potent antimicrobial effects along with their clean, pleasant natural aromas. Here are a few “classic” homecare essential oils suggested by the experts at the leading aromatherapy company, Aura Cacia: lemon (clean, sweet, uplifting scent; deodorizing), peppermint (minty, fresh; air purifier; mild pest repellent), eucalyptus and tea tree (air and surface sanitizers; fresh, therapeutic aromas).

Foreign Investment Influx To Charlotte Real Estate Market
N
ewspapers have been full of reports of recent signs of a revival in the area’s housing market and growth in Charlotte’s economy. Forbes Magazine recently listed Charlotte as the fifth fastest growing city in the U.S., up four spots from its ninth place ranking in 2011 and 2012. With 32.8% growth since 2000 and 1.7% growth since 2011, Charlotte’s population and potential are on the rise.

Q
Questions:
about Charlotte area real estate market
Q:
In addition to the purchase price, what additional charges are involved in buying a house?
A:
When you submit an offer on a house, that offer should be accompanied with an EARNEST MONEY check. The amount of the earnest money, which must be agreed upon by both the buyer and the seller, varies but is usually 1-2% of the offer price. That money is held in escrow by the buyer’s agent’s company and will be credited to the buyer at closing. If the offer is not accepted, or if the closing does not occur through no fault of the buyer, then that total sum is returned to the buyer. As a buyer, you will also be responsible for the DOWN PAYMENT. Your lender will determine that down payment amount based on the loan conditions and requirements, and is usually 5-10% of the home price although that number may vary. Finally, as the buyer, you will be expected to pay the buyer’s share of the CLOSING COSTS. These are charges based on fees associated with the loan ie lender origination fees and appraisal, as well as buyer’s attorney fees. Charges for home inspection and surveys may also be included in the closing costs along with any money to be held in escrow such as payment in advance for city and county taxes, home (hazard) insurance, and HOA (Home Owners Association) fees.
Q:
We’re thinking about having a house built. Any suggestions or advice you could give us about the process or finding a builder would be much appreciated.
A:
After you determine the price, style, and financial responsibility for your to-be-built home, your next step is in finding the right builder for your project. You can com-

pile a list of possibilities based on contractors who build homes similar to the type you want to build, those who build within the price perimeters you wish to pay, and those who build in the same area where you want to be. Once you have narrowed your list of builders, it is crucial to research those under consideration. You can do so by consulting your local Home Builders Association and checking the Better Business Bureau for complaints. Request a list of references from the potential builder and contact them. This list should include bankers, attorneys, suppliers, and sub-contractors. Ask for addresses of homes built in the last twelve months, and call or visit those homeowners to make sure the building process was a positive one, quality workmanship was not compromised, and service after the sale was not ignored. Requesting a financial report of the builder in whom you will be investing trust and money is not unreasonable. Make sure that when you ask the builder to submit a price for building your home that your expectations of that builder are clear. and there is no confusion regarding standards and upgrades. In order for the builder to prepare an accurate cost analysis for your home project, nothing can be left to the imagination. You must be very specific with your wants and needs. If you want granite counters in the kitchen and baths, hardwoods in the main level living areas, and an extended garage, you must make that known to the builder so he/she can price accordingly upfront so there will be no surprises at the end. In that respect, you must do your homework, and you must be absolutely perfectly clear what you want or do not want in your house. Finally, make sure your builder offers a third party warranty. In the event the builder goes out of business before his warranty period has ended, you want to be certain the confidence level you have in your new home is not compromised.

So now we have progressed to the stage that we need to make some painful decisions about getting rid of dangerous obstacles. Moving to a new house, or to a new lifestyle in a retirement community or assisted living forces you to do some serious down sizing on a deadline. Down sizing in your own home is much harder. So, while Mom and Dad were in the hospital, yes, at the same time ….I called Michael Deal and he delivered a dumpster. For not much more money than a night at a Hampton Inn and 3 meals in Charleston you can have a dumpster delivered to your house, fill it up and call to have it picked up when finished. Now this is fun! Out went bags and bags of trash. Old carpet. Stuff. Garage and attic items, old this and that. Piles were designated for Habitat ReStore, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren…give away, piles for everything. And did I mention that even with the new raised floor in the Frank Lloyd Wright style home that we “could live in forever” does not come equipped with the four full time caregivers that we schedule, manage and pay?

Green Home Improvements That Can Make A Real Difference In Home Value
(BPT) - What your home is worth to you is one thing; what it’s worth to someone else may be totally different. If you want to boost the value of your home for yourself and in the eyes of others, one of the best ways to do that in today’s real estate market is to make green home improvements. Going green can mean a lot of things, and it’s easy to start with small changes like switching to compact fluorescent light bulbs and unplugging appliances when they’re not in use. Not only will you be doing good for the environment, you might end up saving on utility bills and, ultimately, increasing your home’s value when the time comes to sell.-

* Landscaping: While planting isn’t always possible in the coldest months of the year, putting together a plan for energy-conscious plantings is a great idea. Consider adding trees that will bring shade to the sunniest spots, like the west side of your home, to cut summertime electric bills. Trees that lose their leaves in the fall will let light in during the winter, as opposed to evergreens which will block it throughout the year. * Water: Take the first step by turning down the temperature setting on your water heater. For more savings, consider replacing older heaters with energy-efficient models or even solar water heaters. Adding insulation to your pipes can also make a difference in how much energy is used to heat water.
homeimprovement Most homeowners put a lot of effort into making their homes attractive, welcoming spaces. With green updates, you can make your home not only more comfortable and more energy-efficient, but also more appealing to buyers.

Get Smart About Your Living Environment: Five trends that will make your home truly your own ARA Content
If you’re looking to purchase or remodel a home, you likely are building a long list of “must-haves,” “must-dos” and “must-includes” for your new space. There’s no question the housing market is in a different place than it was as recently as five years ago. Of course, a tough economy has been the prevailing factor, but other things - an aging population and a tough job market - are influencing how people are living today and possibly into the future. If you’re like most home seekers and remodelers, you may find that your requirements fall in line with these five growing trends: Bigger isn’t always better: As interest grows in living more efficiently, people are building smaller homes. In fact, new homes are now 7 percent smaller than they were the previous year, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Just my style: Homeowners are aiming to make their home fit their personal visions of the best investment on the dollar, and 20 percent of new homes are currently custom-built, according to the American Institute of Architects. This trend to customize is in part made possible by the parallel trend to build a smaller home. Smaller spaces free up dollars to put toward the products or likely moving back home at some point, and 8 percent of Americans report their parents already live with them or will in the future, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. With more people living under one roof - some possibly in diContinued on page 55 36 | YourAtHomeNow.com

Green Moving Tips
Earth-Friendly Ways to Move By Tim Johnson
When you hear the term “green moving,” it might conjure up images of packing your things in large bamboo leaves and hiring a team of non-CO2-emitting Sherpas to carry them across town. In actuality, green moving means being conscientious of our environment and employing methods that are not harmful to the earth. Green moving is a growing trend in the moving industry. It involves tweaking practices that have historically been big on waste such as throwing away cardboard boxes and bubble wrap or moving your belongings in smoke-belching semi trucks. Earth-friendly moving means scaling back a bit. Granted, the green theme has permeated many industries. Traditionally non-green industries such as automotive, energy and housing are now embracing new business practices that take into account short- and long-term effects on the environment. Likewise, green moving has gained in popularity, moving the demand for green moving into a prominent position. 38 | YourAtHomeNow.com
Green Moving Tips • This seems obvious, but don’t accumulate as much stuff in the first place. Less is generally better for the planet anyway, and the less stuff you move, the less gas your moving truck will burn. Green moving can also translate into more “green” for you because you’ll likely spend less to move your household. • Get rid of stuff before you move it. Consider holding a garage sale, or selling your unnecessary items online at eBay or through Craigslist. • Buy used cardboard boxes. Moving companies gen erally prefer that customers use new cardboard boxes to ensure stability, which means a lot of cardboard boxes get tossed after only one use. If using cardboard boxes, look for boxes made of recycled material. • Rent moving boxes. When packing, take advantage of
homefront
companies that offer reusable packing crates, which can eliminate that waste. One such outfit that rents sturdy packing crates made of recycled plastic bottles is California-based Earth Friendly Moving. The company drops off the crates before you move and picks them up afterward in its fleet of bio-diesel trucks. Another company is Rent-A-Crate, a nationwide firm that offers moving crates made of recyclable high density polypropylene. • Cut back on the bubble wrap. You can use old newspapers for non-fragile items, or even old sheets or towels as packing material. These weigh more and don’t offer as much benefit as the lighter bubble wrap, but anything you can do to cut back helps. • Look for environmentally-friendly cleaning products when moving out. Seventh Generation is a national brand of cleaning products that makes toilet bowl cleaners, dishwashing powder and carpet cleaners. These products can be found at many large discount chains such as Target. • Hire moving companies that tout environmentally friendly attributes. One such firm is Go Green Moving, which owns bio-diesel trucks, uses moving pads made of 100% recycled cotton and rents packing crates. • Ask that a company employ eco-friendly practices, especially if it doesn’t. If moving companies believe that consum-
ers are demanding environmentally friendly moves, the moving industry will feel obligated to adopt green moving methods. Green Tips After Moving Into Your New Home Finally, after you’ve moved in to your new home, it’s a good time to think about other ways you can leave less of an environmental footprint. • You can stop junk mail by registering with the Mail Preference Service at the Direct Marketing Association. It won’t stop all the stuff you get daily in your mail, but it will help to reduce a large portion of unwanted paper. • Set up a recycling center in your new kitchen where it’s easy and handy to separate paper from plastic recyclables. Making recycling easy to do ensures that you’ll be more likely to do it. • Think before buying. When shopping for a non-essential item, ask yourself a simple question: When the times comes to move again, will you relish the idea of moving it? • Reduce the possessions you own by recycling or donating an item when you bring a similar item into your home.

minishing health - you may be among the homeowners seeking products that will help ensure a healthier, cleaner environment. This may range from a programmable thermostat to help you bring comfortable temps to all ages, to an air filter to help keep germs and airborne particles at bay.
you need, consider remote home energy management systems. With a solution like Schlage LiNK, a remote access solution that provides home control from a cell phone or any computer with Internet access, you can adjust your home’s thermostat, even when you are not there.
In for the long haul: As life expectancy increases, Americans are building homes that will allow them to “age in place.” Smart technology and system installations that will address future sight, hearing and dexterity-related limitations are becoming increasingly popular as a result.
* Your heating and cooling system can also help keep your home a clean and healthy environment for all ages. Many manufacturers offer whole-house air filtration systems, and some of these systems can filter up to 99.98 percent of particles and allergens from your home’s air.
Energy-efficient: As homeowner concerns about energy costs continue to mount, so too does their attention to home design and products that will help lower their energy bills and decrease their carbon footprint. As a result, homeowners are showing increased attention to factors such as insulation and window quality.
If any of these home trends apply to the “must have” list for your new or remodeled home, your heating and cooling system might be a good place to begin in your planning. Visit www.trane.com to get started. With the right HVAC system, you’ll be on your way to creating your picture-perfect home environment, however small, unique, diverse, long-lasting or energy-efficient you need it to be.
In the end, there are many products and services on the market to help meet these homeowner needs, but there’s one you may have not considered, tucked away in your basement. It’s your home heating, ventilation and cooling (HVAC) system, and it actually plays a role in meeting each of these growing homeowner trends. * If it’s a smaller home you seek, HVAC manufacturers such as Trane continue to rollout product solutions that offer you the size you need to fit your space. * Heating and cooling alone accounts for half of the energy used in a home, according the Alliance to Save Energy, so it’s important to install a HVAC system that will deliver optimal performance. A product such as the Trane XC95m furnace is among the most energy efficient on the market, and is equipped with technology that allows it to communicate with all other components of a heating and cooling system. * If smart technology and a customized home experience are what
