Kelley Elliott ABR, ASR, GRI RE/MAX LUBBOCK 806-789-6632 kelleyelliott@remaxlubbock.com Why do you live in the Lubbock area? What do you like most about it? I grew up in Uvalde, Texas and graduated from Texas Tech University with a BFA in Design Communication. I lived in a couple of other places after graduation and always ended up back here because it’s a great place to raise a family. The people are very friendly and welcoming. What do you enjoy doing when you’re not working? When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and attending sporting events that my kids participate in. I also travel, read, go to the movies, swim, float the Frio, fish, snow ski, and Jazzercise. How long have you worked in Real Estate? I’ve been in real estate for about seven and a half years. Before then, I was a stay-athome mom. What is your specialty? I specialize in Residential and Multi-Family home sales. Why should someone select you as their Realtor? Because I’m knowledgeable about the business, maintain a
business owners. I like seeing people happy and pleased with the representation I have given them. I also enjoy helping other business owners by being able to give them referrals.
high level of integrity and put the needs of my clients above my own while providing a fun and energetic experience.
What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy or sell a home? I would advise buyers or sellers to use a REALTOR. Whether you’re buying or selling, use a REALTOR who knows the business and can see that your needs are met and that you aren’t taken advantage of by another party. This is especially important if you’re buying or selling for the first time! National statistics show that only 6 percent of real estate is sold without a Real Estate Professional.
What designations do you have and what does that mean for the people you work with? I have these designations: ABR (Accredited Buyers Representative), ASR (Accredited Sellers Representative), and GRI (Graduate Realtor Institute). I am currently working on my CRS – Certified Residential Specialist designation. These designations mean that I have additional knowledge and tools for representing my clients’ best interests. What are the most gratifying and the most challenging aspects of what you do? With numerous parties involved in a real estate transaction, I find that the most challenging aspect is dealing with varied personalities and finding yourself and your clients dealing with problems outside of our control during the transaction, i.e. negotiations, the loan process and appraisal process. Because there are changes happening daily in the world of mortgage financing, we often find that this

What do you see in the future for real estate sales/prices? I anticipate that our local home prices will remain steady and continue to increase at a conservative rate of approximately 3-4 percent annually. However, we will continue to see more supply than demand causing the average time on the market to be longer than in recent years. While interest rates continue to be at an all-time low, you’d anticipate that buyers would take advantage of that, but due to an increase in the borrowers’ credit scores and all the documentation needed to secure a loan and our economic situation, we aren’t seeing as many buyers.

A combination of location and buyer preference is also significant. Buyers will pay more for homes with locationbased amenities they value, like a spectacular view, proximity to shopping, work, or hospitals, a pedestrian- or bikefriendly neighborhood, and good school districts.

Zillow’s own explanation of accuracy (last updated Sept. 15, 2010) shows that only 66 percent of Zestimates of recently sold homes in Texas were within 20 percent of the actual sales price. That’s quite a large range, even for the 66 percent of properties that are within it. Think about the 34 percent of properties that aren’t even within 20 percent. Are you willing to price your home based on a number that could be tens of thousands of dollars too low?
Taking the stress out of design decisions (ARA) – Decorating your living space is supposed to be fun. If high prices, high-pressure sales tactics and clueless consultants have you stressing over your design decisions, it may be time to simplify the process so you can rediscover the joy of making choices about your decor. Here are a handful of common design decision headaches and a few ideas for curing them. Too many options Walking into a big box store or a design showroom can leave you feeling overwhelmed by the sheer volume of choices you face. Before you confront a dizzying array of options, narrow your choices by deciding what style you like. Settling on an overall style that will be carried throughout your design can help you eliminate design options right off the bat. For example, if a traditional, country style appeals to you, you’ll know you don’t even have to look at stainless steel countertops or frosted-glass-front cabinets. Look to online resources like BHG.com (the Better Homes and Gardens home page) or HGTV.com for ideas about design styles you may like.
a specialty store has advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, you’re more likely to find a knowledgeable salesperson. If you do need to talk to a person, you’ll get someone who specializes in what you’re buying, rather than trying to buy blinds from someone who usually works in the cosmetics department. On the other, you may face high-pressure sales tactics – something no one responds well to. The strong sell makes it difficult to know if you’re getting good advice or a decent deal. Shopping online at specialty sites can be an option. You can find plenty of advice and quality products, minus the pressure of dealing face-to-face with a salesperson.
Customer service That cosmetics department transplant is a perfect example of another major design decision stress-causer: clueless customer service. Sometimes you need guidance. And sometimes you need to talk to someone who knows enough about what you’re buying to be able to interpret your description of what you’re looking for when you don’t really know what it’s called. Your chances of finding that level of expertise are much High-pressure sales Buying design elements at better with a specialty store,
Before you visit the design showroom, take some of the stress out of shopping for your home by narrowing your choices to a particular style or color palette. If possible, comparison shop online to get a sense of the price ranges for products you like. whether you’re buying blinds or be frustrating to find what you want only to realize the price is flooring. way beyond what you budgeted for.

websites like PriceGrabber.com or Nextag.com. Taking the stress out of design decisions doesn’t have to be difficult. Start by refining your design choices to a favorite style and then use online resources to renew your enjoyment of the design process – and ensure you end up with a look you’ll love for years to come.
Safety first: fire extinguisher know-how Fire extinguishers are an important safety component in any home or building. They can mean the difference between a devastating fire or a minor incident. Although a fire extinguisher in the hands of a trained adult can be a life- and property-saving tool, many people are not properly skilled in the use of fire extinguishers. A large portion of the public has not received training on fire extinguisher use and when to use them. Sometimes the use of the wrong extinguisher can exacerbate a fire, as there are different fire extinguishers for different types of fires. Learning when and where to use an extinguisher can be a matter of life and death. Type of Extinguisher Not all fires are alike, and fires started from different materials require the use of different extinguishing agents to safely and quickly put the fire out. There are five different types of extinguishers, and generally each will feature a symbol to show the applicable fire on which they can be used. Class A: These are used on ordinary substances, like cloth, wood, paper, and plastics. Class B: These extinguishers are used on fires that feature flammable liquids, such as oilbased paints or gasoline. Class C: These extinguishers are used on electrical equipment, such as tools or appliances that are plugged in.
circumstances. 1. The fire is small and contained. 2. You have already called the fire department. 3. There is little chance of being consumed by toxic smoke. 4. You can escape safely if necessary. 5. The fire is not between you and the escape route. 6. You are physically able to carry its weight and exert the necessary pressure to operate it. Fire extinguishers should be routinely inspected and maintained to ensure they will be effective. Some need to be shaken to keep the dry chemicals from settling. Others need to have the pressure at the correct level. An extinguisher may need to be recharged or replaced if it is damaged. Individuals can talk with firefighters about possible training courses in the use of fire extinguishers. This will help a person know the correct way to handle and activate an extinguisher.
Class D: Commonly found in specific factories, these extinguishers are used on flammable metals. Class K: Combustible cooking materials, like animal oils and fats, can be extinguished with this agent. They are commonly found in commercial kitchens, but are now infiltrating residential markets as well. Multipurpose: Some extin- U.S. Home Structure Fires According to data published by guishers combine different agents so they are applicable for a range the National Fire Protection Association, U.S. fire departments of fires. responded to 362,500 home structure fires in 2009, the most curWhen to Use a Fire rent annual data available.

The hidden cost of convenience (MS) – With so many different devices deemed necessary these days, people often are unaware of the amount of energy used and the costs associated with keeping these devices running. While there has been a lot of discussion on “vampire” devices, electronics that continue to consumer power even when in the stand-by position, it seems that many other everyday hidden costs are overlooked. Take a refrigerator that was purchased 10 or more years ago. It may still be running today just as strong, and appear that is does not need replacing. But did you know that the refrigerator technology has improved energy efficiency features and offer better performing motors to help save electricity? According to the California Energy Commission (www. consumerenergycenter.org), older refrigerators could be costing you up to $280 a year in electricity. A newer, more efficient model could pay for itself in a year or two. Similarly, if you have an older television with the classic cathode-ray tube in it, even if just as a secondary TV in the bedroom, it still may be consuming more energy than you think. A study done by Cornell University found that a similar size LCD monitor compared to a CRT monitor used nearly 69 percent less energy – 25 watts (LCD) vs. 80 watts (CRT) – including 40 percent less when in stand-by mode. With the energy difference in mind, it might be the last evidence you need to justify buying a new TV for the bedroom. A more everyday example that might not be considered as often is batteries. Batteries power all of our portable devices, and without them, we are powerless to use them – quite literally. Standard alkaline batteries may last a long time, but we constantly need a supply of them on hand and they can be expensive. When you stop to add up how many AA or AAA batteries a standard home uses (all those remote controls, wireless keyboards, mice and game controllers, not to mention the loud toys for the little ones), the hidden cost of replacement batteries can surprise you. Luckily, there’s a solution that’s more efficient and costs less over time. Rechargeable battery technology has improved in the last five years that gets rid of many of the questions of using rechargeables. One example of these batteries is the ‘eneloop,’ a pre-charged rechargeable battery that you can use out of the package and recharge up to 1,500 times, made by SANYO. It also keeps its charge, up to 85 percent after two years of non-use. Because the eneloop is ready to use and has low selfdischarge (meaning that it holds its charge for a long period of time), they are more appealing and more cost-effective than ever before. We know rechargeable batteries are convenient for cell phones, music players and readers, but we don’t usually stop to think about them for other items. When we become aware of hidden costs, we become smarter consumers and realize that a little up front investment can often mean less money paid out over time.
