“Being involved with the HBA has made me aware of how much the building industry impacts multiple facets and areas I didn’t realize it did. The HBA is a tool to focus and organize important topics to educate and improve a person’s life. It has also given me the opportunity to meet and get to know great people I normally would not have the chance to.

“I also think the home building industry would have a much quieter voice to promote concerns and recommendations on behalf of its members on issues that directly impact how they do business and the costs associated with it.”

Early on, the HBA of F-M was largely a social organization where members would gather for fun and to discuss any local regulations affecting the industry. Just as the F-M building industry has blossomed over 50 years, so has the HBA of F-M. Today it is an organization of roughly 800 member companies that has kept its core focus on being a voice for the building industry’s legislative issues.

Paul Kochmann, Kochmann Brothers Homes, Inc., has been an active member since 1983 and served as HBA of F-M president in 2002.

“If the charter members looked at the organization today, in one word, I think their reaction would be ‘wow,’” he says. “Even in my time with this organization, we’ve grown from a staff of two to eight, have gone from the Home & Garden Show at West Acres to the Fargodome with a huge jump in exhibitors, and have seen the Parade of Homes grow. The changes have been phenomenal and I think the charter members would be thrilled to see what their Association has accomplished.”

HBC President Dave Anderson, Dave Anderson Construction, says, “It is truly incredible to have such an overwhelming amount of support from the great members of this organization.”

Bell State Bank & Trust and its employees donated over $15,500 through its Pay it Forward program. This is one-third of the total amount of funds raised for the build.

“Our members were so incredibly generous, that we will be able to support another family in achieving the dream of homeownership,” Anderson says. “We will designate the remaining funds to go toward a future Habitat for Humanity Build and we look forward to partnering with this great organization again.”

This home is also the first-ever National Association of Home Builders designated green build in the Fargo area. It is designated at the Bronze level of the National Green Building Standard and has gone through the certification process.

“We finally have a place that we can call our own. The kids and the dog have a backyard to play in that they’ve never had before.

It will give us the stability that we need.

“To me, it feels like I won the lottery and it’s a dream come true.

It would not have been possible without Habitat for Humanity, Home Builders Association and Home Builders Care Foundation.

“I want to express my greatest gratitude to everyone that has helped either with volunteering or funding or organizing things, and the time that everybody took to help this dream come true. It’s just so wonderful that people are so helping and giving. It means the world to me and my kids.

Thank you so much!”

Remodelers Council Accessibility ramps help area residents

T

by Krista Mund he words of a volunteer say it all: “There is no better feeling than working together as a team to assist someone in need. The look we get, and appreciation expressed by those we help, is priceless,” says Terry Lipp, Ferguson Bath, Kitchen & Lighting Showroom. Lipp is a past Home Builders Association of F-M Remodelers Council chairman and regularly volunteers to help build wheelchair accessibility ramps for area residents.

“Giving back to the community is personally rewarding and to do this with members of the Council makes it even more special,” he says. “The value we bring by enhancing a person’s quality of life and the fact that they are able to stay in their home is extremely gratifying. What other choice would these people have? It is great to know that we do make a difference.”

Here is an example of Remodelers Council reaching out to help those in need:

Elena Andersen

The Home Builders Association of F-M’s Remodelers Council constructed a wheelchair accessibility ramp in late 2011 for Fargo resident Elena Andersen, 3443 17th St. S. The HBA of F-M and Remodelers Council members, Sherry and Elena Andersen in front of their home and wheelchair along with Home accessibility ramp built by the Remodelers Council.

Builders Care of F-M Foundation, coordinated the effort and donated time for the project.

Elena Andersen, daughter of Sherry Andersen, was diagnosed with myelomeningocele, more commonly known as spina bifida, at birth.

Spina bifida is a birth defect in which the backbone and spinal canal do not close before birth. This causes the spinal cord and meninges (the Ramp con’t on next pg

tissues covering the spinal cord) to protrude from the child’s back.

Sherry Andersen was relieved to find out about the partnership with Freedom Resource Center and the HBA’s Remodelers Council, as her daughter is entirely wheelchair-bound.

“Since Elena has been in a wheelchair all of her life, this ramp will give her more access to the house,” she says. “It will give her more independence and, most importantly, freedom to come and go when she wants.”

Freedom Resource Center is an advocacy organization designed to assist people with disabilities in achieving and maintaining independent lifestyles.

Remodelers Council members build a wheelchair accessibility ramp for Elena Andersen in December 2011.

{Council supports community}

emodelers Council is a committee of the Home Builders Association of F-M that deals with issues affecting the remodeling segment of the building industry. Meetings are held approximately every other month for networking, informative sessions and conducting council business. The Council was formed in 1990 and assists in planning and coordinating the Fall Home Show.

Council members regularly lend their efforts to charitable projects and build two to three handicap accessibility ramps a year. They also built bunk beds for the Gladys Ray Shelter in Fargo.

Habitat for Humanity

Last year, the Council teamed up with the HBA of F-M and its charity, Home Builders Care of F-M Foundation, to build the Association’s first solely sponsored home for Lake Agassiz Habitat For Humanity.

The build began in May and wrapped up in October with a home dedication ceremony.

April Nelson and her children, Brooke and Blake, have settled in and are enjoying the home in north Fargo.

The HBA of F-M and Home Builders Care Foundation coordinated the construction of a garage in addition to the house build; Association members donated all labor and materials to make it happen.

RENEW Home

Remodelers Council members donated time, material and funds to help with the Home Builders Care Build for Habitat in 2012.

The Council also spearheaded the RENEW Home, a 100-year-old home that was renovated from top to bottom and sold in 2011 to an income-eligible family. RENEW is an acronym for “restoring existing neighborhoods for everyone’s well-being.” The Council teamed up with the Home Builders Care of Fargo-Moorhead Foundation and HBA of F-M membership to remodel the home at 923 5th Ave. S. in Fargo.

Home Builders Association offers tools for consumers

F

argo-Moorhead area residents know the Home Builders Association of F-M for many reasons.

Maybe you have visited the Red River Valley Home & Garden Show. Perhaps you have clicked on www.hbafm.com seeking information about choosing a contractor. Or maybe you have picked up the newspaper and seen one of our leaders quoted in a Bryce Johnson story about housing. Founded in 1956, we are a trade HBA Executive association for the home building industry; a major part Vice President brycea@hbafm.com of our mission is to provide quality services, benefits and education to consumers.

We are here for you, whether you are buying a home, remodeling a home or just looking for some ideas to refresh the home or yard you already love. The HBA of F-M, its staff, leadership and members want to be the go-to source for you throughout the home journey that is uniquely yours.

What we offer you: access!

You can access our membership and others involved in the home building industry through this printed directory, online at www.hbafm. com, at the Red River Valley Home & Garden Show, at the Fall Home Show, at our two Parade of Homes events in the spring and fall, and at our Remodeled Home Tour in the fall.

Through these publications and events, we want to promote the quality contractors and supporting companies that are available for all of your home improvement and building projects. It is our goal to produce high-quality public events: one-stop shopping at our home shows and an array of beautiful, diverse homes and remodels to view during Parades and the Remodeled Home Tour. Our shows feature knowledgeable, dynamic featured speakers who have brought topics like interior design, green building and remodeling, kitchen and bath renovation and cutting-edge painting techniques to our local venues. All events feature guides offering the latest updates for consumers on home buying and remodeling incentives, tips and details about the events themselves. Our Parades and Remodeled Home Tour even feature an online guide and magazine accessible through the Internet. See details about our events on pages 28-29.

You can connect to our public events through Twitter and Facebook as well! Like us at www.facebook.com/ParadeFM and www.facebook.com/ HomeShowFM.

Governmental voice

On the local, state and national levels, we always advocate for legislation that keeps housing affordable to you, the home buyer and renovator. The HBA of F-M played a big part in legislation that allows tax exemptions on new construction currently available to home buyers through the cities of Fargo, West Fargo, Moorhead and Dilworth.

Our staff and members also worked diligently at the North Dakota Legislature to head off ineffective fire sprinkler mandates that could have raised the cost of a single-family home by thousands of dollars.

These are just two examples of major achievements on the state level.

We also advocate on the local level and have wonderful relationships with our metro-area city governments. Government officials routinely seek feedback from the HBA when it comes to implementing regulations that may impact home buyers. Most often, we are asked to sit at the table on the front end of changes rather than be put in a reactive position to oppose restrictive regulations.

Scholarships, community outreach

Through its charitable organization, Home Builders Care of F-M Foundation, the HBA strives to give back to this community. HBC offers scholarships to area students interested in a building industry career. We also support events for youth like the Health, Tech & Trades Career Expo and the Herdina Academy for the Construction Trades.

HBC and HBA members are dedicated to making the F-M metro area a better place to live by contributing to and organizing projects that revitalize residential properties, raise funds for organizations like Lake Agassiz Habitat for Humanity and provide renovation support for homeowners in need of wheelchair ramps. See www.hbcfm.com or pages 39-44 for more details about our community service efforts. You can also find HBC on Facebook at www.facebook.com/HomeBuildersCare.

We hope you will connect with the HBA of F-M and its events in one way or another. Whether it is at the Home & Garden Show, by liking us on Facebook or by using this directory, please make us your go-to source for everything home-building related!

T

he American dream of homeownership is within your reach! With the right planning, many people who rent the home in which they live could afford to buy one. Some consumers may be wary of buying a home or putting money into a home remodel with the economic times we currently face.

In actuality, now is a great time to buy. The Fargo-Moorhead metro area is buffered to a certain extent from national economic trends.

According to an economist with the National Association of Home Builders, our region has stayed relatively strong and is a bright spot on the national housing radar.

A prosperous and diversified business base is continuing to stimulate and grow the area’s economy. The Fargo-Moorhead economy is solid and job creation is strong. In fact, North Dakota is one of the only states in the nation where home prices continue to appreciate.

For those who would like a complete overview of the home buying process, The Village Family Service Center offers home buyer education workshops which include all elements of purchasing a home from beginning to end.

Joshua Huffman, financial counselor and home buyer education facilitator at The Village Family Service Center, says,“Going through the home buyer education classes at The 150

Village allows people to learn how to get into a home they can afford and keep. This class makes sure they know all the programs that are available for purchasing a home.”

Check out www.helpwithmoney. org or contact The Village Family Service Center at (800) 450-4019 for more information.

Educating yourself about the process and responsibilities of being a homeowner will most likely save time, stress, and even money, in the end. There are many programs available within the metro area to help you purchase a home. These incentives and tax exemptions are outlined beginning on page 160-164.

Before you find a home you like, one of the first steps is to determine what you can afford.

Check out the following tips: 1. Review your savings. A certain amount in savings is sometimes needed to apply toward down payment and closing costs.

There are loan programs available (e.g., FHA and VA mortgage programs) that require less cash payment at closing.

Be prepared for some costs that you cannot finance through your loan; there are some costs that must be paid at the closing, the day that you buy your home.

2. Review your debt responsibilities. Consider how debt, in relation to income, will influence a lender’s decision on

2013 HBA of F-M Directory & Consumer Guide

{tips for homeownership} your mortgage loan amount. Additional debt from house payments on top of existing debt might restrict your lifestyle.

3. Get pre-approved and pre-qualified with a lender. A lender can help you find the right loan or assistance programs available to purchase a home. Some tools are included in this directory to help you estimate the house price you can afford: buyer’s cost statement (page 152), amortization schedule (page 154) and loan application checklist (page 156).

4. Monthly expenses may increase. The purchase of your home will likely change how much you will need to spend on expenses every month. If you have trouble saving now, your finances might be too tight with the purchase of a home. If the time is financially right for you to purchase a home, consider the advantages that ownership has over renting.

5. Think of it as scheduled savings. As a homeowner, your monthly mortgage payments serve as a type of savings plan. Over time, you will accumulate what lenders call “equity,” an ownership interest in your house that you may be able to borrow against or convert to cash by selling the house. Renters continually pay rent to a landlord for as long as they rent without opportunity to build up equity.

6. Check out the incentives available through local jurisdictions or state governments at www.hbafm.com or reading pages 160-164.

Home prices are reasonable locally, giving buyers a unique opportunity to find affordable housing. Most likely, you can get the house of your dreams and still have a budget for decorating.

ou can save yourself the disappointment of falling in love with a home you can’t afford by pre-qualifying for a loan through the lender of your choice.

Using the chart below, you can estimate the amount you can afford.

As a rule of thumb, your mortgage payment (principal, tax, interest and insurance) should be no more than 28 percent of your gross monthly income before taxes. All of your monthly obligations including your mortgage payment should not exceed 36 percent of your gross monthly income. The 28 percent and 36 percent ratios apply only to conventional loans. FHA and VA loans have different criteria.

1. Add monthly principal 36% of 28% of and interest payment from Gross Gross Gross amortization schedule, (page Yearly Monthly Monthly 154)._______________ Income Income Income 2. Add monthly real estate tax (can be obtained from your real estate agent or your local county courthouse).____________ 3. Add monthly insurance payment (get estimate from insurance agent of your choice).______________ Total basic monthly housing cost.____________ 4.

{insurance considerations}

B

uying a home is one of the largest investments you will make in your lifetime. It is important to protect that investment with homeowners, disability and life insurance policies. Look for an insurance agency with a long-standing, solid reputation. Ask for referrals from friends and co-workers. The insurance company should also have a reputation for fast, fair claims service and have a solid financial rating of “A” or better from AM Best, an independent company that ranks insurance companies’ financial performance.

Some items usually covered by insurance include damages from: • Fire or smoke, explosion • Lightning, windstorm or hail • Vehicles or aircraft • Vandalism or theft • Falling objects • Bulging, cracking, rupture of hot-water heating systems

• Freezing of a plumbing system or household appliance • Water damage • Loss of use • Personal liability • Weight of ice/snow

Many factors determine the cost of insurance. Some include: • Size of home • Age of home • Home renovation • Wood stoves • Alarm system • Locks/deadbolts • Smoke detectors • Other buildings on the property

• Heating system • In-home business • Limit of personal liability • Loss history • Credit score • Other coverage with same company • Deductible • Type of roof

Some options you may want to add: • Flood insurance • Water backup • Identity theft coverage

Cities offer tax incentives for homeowners, resulting in thousands of dollars in savings

by Rocky Schneider & Krista Mund Editor’s Note: See page 161 for websites and contact information on these programs and home renovation programs.

L

ast year, the city of Moorhead passed a property tax rebate on newly built homes. The rebate applies to the full value of newly constructed single family homes (building and land) started on or after Jan. 1, 2012. Those eligible will still pay their property taxes, but those general taxes paid to the city, schools and county will be returned in a rebate check at the end of the year. It is available citywide. Examples: • On a $250,000 home, the twoyear rebate value is $5,700; • On a $1 million home, the two-year value is $13,700.

The cities of Fargo and West Fargo offer a two-year tax exemption on new construction.

The law was updated in 2009 to offer more benefit for home buyers, increase home sales and strengthen a struggling housing market. The improved incentive offers a $150,000 value reduction from building value for two full years to owners of a newly constructed home. This amounts up to a $2,600 per year savings on property taxes, totaling up to $5,200 in savings.

160

The incentive is available to all jurisdictions in North Dakota due to legislation, S.B. 2247, passed during the 2009 legislation session.

The bill doubled the amount of value available from $75,000 to $150,000. The bill also clarified the language to guarantee every qualifying home buyer two full years of benefit. The original bill and value amount were first established in 1983.

“These tax exemption programs in our communities are an incredible deal for home buyers,” says Bryce Johnson, Home Builders Association of F-M executive vice president.

“The incentives go a long way to increase home buying activity and help keep the housing industry a robust part of the local economy.”

2013 HBA of F-M President Darrick Guthmiller, Kochmann Brothers Homes, Inc., echoes that sentiment, “The incentives give Realtors a tool that is easy to understand when using it to sell a home, and they give new homeowners an incentive to buy.

It provides a little break during a time when costs are the highest.”

Minnesota also has a Homestead

2013 HBA of F-M Directory & Consumer Guide

{incentives: buyers & homeowners} Market Exclusion that is available in Moorhead and Dilworth. Up to $30,400 of the value of homes that are owner-occupied may be excluded from property tax calculations; the amount of the exclusion varies depending on the market value of the property.

Dilworth buyers receive free city utilities for two years or totaling $2,000, whichever comes first. They also get a free family pool pass for two years and low lot prices on city-owned lots.

assistance opportunities for low interest loans through the Neighborhood Revitalization Initiative (NRI) program and tax incentives for the Renaissance Zone.

Fargo Senior Planner Dan Mahli says, “Some incentives are based on household income, and others have no income restrictions.

Program priorities address health and safety code, structural improvements, weatherization and general enhancements.”

West Fargo offers a five-year remodeling tax exemption on residential property at least 25 years old with a $25,000 increase in true and full value. A project that is less than $25,000 is eligible for an exemption up to three years.

West Fargo’s Renaissance Zone encompasses a 20-block area primarily located on Sheyenne St., Center St. and Main Ave. corridors.

Residential properties included in this area are eligible for property tax exemptions through the city and approved projects can apply for state income tax exemptions.

Interest rates, purchase prices and income limits are subject to change. Contact your lender or city government offices for current information. For more details on any of these programs, contact your local city government or the HBA at (701) 232-5846 or info@ hbafm.com.

{state warranty laws)

North Dakota Warranty Information

T

he State of North Dakota has an implied warranty law that is spelled out in the North Dakota Century Code sections 41-02-31 through 41-02-35. For a first-hand look at this law, consumers and builders can access the state’s website at www.legis.nd.gov/information/ statutes/cent-code.html; or copies of the North Dakota Century Code can be obtained at your local library or county courthouse.

North Dakota also has a “notice and opportunity to repair law” that requires homeowners to give a contractor written notice by mail within a certain time of a defect being discovered, and give the contractor a reasonable time to comply with the law.

Minnesota Warranty Information

I

n accordance with Minnesota law, every builder must offer a warranty. The law states: in every sale of a completed dwelling, and in every contract for the sale of a dwelling to be completed, the vendor shall warrant to the vendee that: • during the one-year period from and after the warranty date, the dwelling shall be free from defects caused by faulty workmanship and defective materials due to noncompliance with building standards; • during the two-year period from and after the warranty date, the dwelling shall be free from defects caused by faulty installation of plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling systems due to noncompliance with building standards; • during the ten-year period from and after the warranty date, the dwelling shall be free from major construction defects due to noncompliance with building standards.

In 2010, provisions were added to the warranty law that: • strengthen the notice and opportunity to repair law; • create an early neutral evaluator panel to help decide the scope of work in cases where there is a disagreement; and • require builders to develop performance guidelines, a handbook for homeowners and builders on who is responsible for items under the warranty laws.

You only receive protection of the Minnesota warranty if you work with a licensed builder. By working with a licensed builder, you also receive protection of the state recovery fund, which pays up to $50,000 for problems caused by a builder. To check contractor licensing in North Dakota or Minnesota, go to the following websites: www.nd.gov/sos/ licensing or www.doli.state.mn.us.

tatutes pertaining to contractors can be found in the North Dakota Century Code in Chapter 43-07. This information can be accessed on the North Dakota Secretary of State’s website: www.nd.gov/sos/ licensing or copies can be obtained at your local library or courthouse.

You may also contact the contractor licensing department at (701) 3283665 or (800) 352-0867 ext. 8-3665.

North Dakota law requires a contractor to acquire a license when the cost, value or price per job exceeds the sum of $2,000. To process a contractor’s license, the following needs to be completed and submitted to the Secretary of State’s office: • Business name registered in North Dakota.

• A contractor’s application in the exact name that the business name will be registered in North Dakota. The application will require the applicant to sign under oath a statement of the applicant’s experience and qualifications as a contractor.

• A copy of a certificate of insurance indicating liability coverage as proof that the applicant has secured liability insurance.

• A statement from North Dakota Workforce Safety & Insurance that the contractor has secured workers’ compensation coverage.

If a contractor does not have any employees, an affidavit of nonemployment is required to be filed with WSI. For details, contact Workforce Safety & Insurance, 1600 E. Century Ave., Bismarck, ND 58503-0644 or (800) 777-5033.

• The appropriate filing fee made payable to the Secretary of State.

- Class A - contracts over $250,000 per job. Cost: $300. Renewal: $60.

- Class B - contracts up to $250,000 per job. Cost: $200. Renewal: $40.

- Class C - contracts up to $120,000 per job. Cost: $150. Renewal: $30.

- Class D - contracts up to $50,000 per job. Cost: $50. Renewal: $10.

In addition to a contractor’s license, builders may need to obtain other licenses or permits as required by law. For example, licenses issued by the State Electrical Board, PO Box 857, Bismarck, N.D. 58504, (701) 328-9522; State Plumbing Board, 204 W. Thayer Ave., Bismarck, N.D., 58501, (701) 328-9977; an Asbestos Abatement License issued by the North Dakota Department of Health; or a Transient Merchant License issued by the Attorney General.

o your homework before you have work done on your home or business. Don’t hire just any builder or remodeler who may have magically appeared on the scene!

“With our extraordinary weather, it is more important here than anywhere else to make sure you are using a local, licensed contractor,” says Bryce Johnson, Home Builders Association of F-M executive vice president. “Out-of-town contractors come with every major storm or construction opportunity.

While some of those companies are legitimate, sometimes they are not licensed and are difficult to track down if any future issues arise. Many times these outside contractors are just trying to make a quick buck and move on to the next place.”

Use these tips to select a professional you can trust with your future.

1. Always check to see if the contractor you are considering, local or transient, is licensed in the state in which work will be performed. Contact the appropriate governmental agency: North Dakota Secretary of State’s office at (701) 328-3665 or the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry at (651) 284-5034 or (651) 284-5069 to verify the builder is currently Tips con’t on pg 180

FAQ about contractors

Ask.

How do I find out if a contractor is licensed?

When looking for a builder or remodeler, check with the North Dakota Secretary of State: www. nd.gov/sos/licensing. In Minnesota, this information can be found online: www.doli.state.mn.us. Ask to see a copy of the license. By law, all licensed builders must carry a pocket card of their license and have their license displayed in their office.

What if I have problems with my builder or contractor?

The typical house contains more than 3,000 different parts. It would be unrealistic to expect your new home to be perfect. Even the best built homes and additions are likely to need a few corrections. Most problems are corrected routinely by the contractor, however, if a nonroutine problem arises, you should follow these steps: Identify the nature of the problem and put it in writing. Both the states of North Dakota and Minnesota have a “notice and opportunity to repair” law that requires homeowners to give the contractor written notice by mail within a certain time of the defect being discovered, and give the contractor a reasonable time to comply with the law.

Familiarize yourself with warranty coverage. Go directly to the contractor with complaints; do not go through a third party until you have given your contractor a reasonable chance to correct the problem.

Identify.

A question frequently asked of HBA of F-M staff: “Can you refer builders and other trade contractors to me?”

Yes and no.

We can give you information for all of our members in the specialty you desire. Visit the classification section of this book to search for a member by category (or visit www.hbafm.com). You must determine who is the best contractor for you. Those who belong to the Home Builders Association of F-M subscribe to a code of ethics.

In general, those who belong to trade associations see a need to stay abreast of current industry developments and care about giving back to their industry. They have a sense of responsibility. You may also refer to the article on the facing page and visit www.nahb.org, www.ndbuild. com or www.bamn.org for other tips and information.

licensed and to find out if he or she has a disciplinary history. The status of a contractor’s license can also be verified by using the website nd.gov/sos/licensing/ or www.doli.state.mn.us/contractor. html.

2. Get more than one estimate and be wary of any contractor that requires full payment up front, uses high-pressure sales tactics or asks you to sign authorization paperwork or a contract that you don’t understand. Consider paying with a credit card since these companies have better methods of remedying disputes and dealing with fraudulent charges.

3. Get a detailed contract including a summary of the work to be done, a description of materials, the total contract price or how the price will be calculated and specific timelines. Do not sign it until you are comfortable.

4. Ask the contractor how long and where he or she has been in business.

5. Request references and check with former customers to see if they were satisfied with the work.

6. Ask for a local business address, other than a post office box, and a local phone number where the contractor can be reached during normal business hours. However, some transient companies will open a post office box or can easily acquire a cell phone with a local number to give the appearance of being a local company, when it is not.

7. Ask about warranty work and the company’s service policies.

8. Find out if the contractor has sufficient workers compensation and general liability insurance. If not, you may be liable for any construction-related accidents on your premises.

9. Is he or she a member of a trade association such as the HBA of F-M? Generally members of a trade association see a need to stay abreast of current industry developments and care about giving back to their industry.

10. Lastly, make sure you can communicate with the contractor and feel comfortable with him or her. Misunderstandings during the course of the project can lead to cost overruns and delays.

by Krista Mund designation from the National Association of Home Builders or the North Dakota Association of Builders says a lot about a builder, remodeler or building industry associate. Professional designations offer opportunities for Home Builders Association of F-M members to improve skills, advance their careers, and be recognized for commitment to professional growth. See the facing page for a list of HBA members as who have earned designations as of Nov. 15, 2012.

National Association of Home Builders designations

North Dakota Professional Builder designation

NAHB has the most targeted curriculum, accomplished teachers and widely respected education opportunities in the business. The following are brief descriptions of designations that HBA of F-M members have earned: • Certified Aging-In-Place Specialist (CAPS) - teaches technical, business management and customer service skills essential to competing in the aging-in-place market.

• Certified Graduate Builder (CGB) - emphasizes business and project management skills.

P

by Krista Mund eople moving to the Fargo-Moorhead area are sometimes confused when they begin shopping for housing and are introduced to “special assessments.”

Somewhat unique to this area, special assessments are allowed by the states of Minnesota and North Dakota and can be levied for both new construction and rehabilitation work. Cities can charge properties for the cost of local improvements or collect charges for services that will benefit the properties.

These special assessments are used to finance many types of local improvements, including street paving, sidewalks, street lighting, storm and sanitary sewer systems, water systems and parks.

In larger cities and other parts of the country, land developers are required to install, pay for and include the cost in lot prices.

Instead of special assessments, local governments typically charge connection or impact fees to cover the cost of bringing public services to developments. These fees are passed on to the buyer through the lot price.

In our market, city governments finance improvements, levying back the costs against the benefitting properties. Buyers can choose to pay off the assessed cost, add it to their mortgage or leave the assessed costs on the tax roll and pay the annual installment, 184

{special assessments} with interest, on their tax bill.

Terms for financing at the city level vary.

• Fargo’s term is 25 years except for sidewalk reconstruction and streetlights, which are 10 years.

• Moorhead’s term is 25 years except for sidewalks, which are 10 years.

• West Fargo’s term is 25 years except for sidewalks, which are 10 years.

• Dilworth’s term is 15 years.

Some in the real estate industry would prefer to see specials reflected in the purchase price of a home because people who move to the area and research the cost of living or look at market analysis are surprised when that extra dollar amount appears as specials.

Special assessment costs have been rising steadily in the F-M area, causing concern for some residents and city leaders.

Recently, the Home Builders Association of F-M worked with Moorhead’s engineering and planning department on ways to streamline the infrastructure process and reduce costs.

2013 HBA of F-M President Darrick Guthmiller, Kochmann Brothers Homes, Inc., says, “Although special assessments may surprise and confuse area newcomers, homeownership in the F-M area is still very affordable and generally comparable in price or less expensive than other regions in the country.”

by Krista Mund opyright infringement can happen unknowingly, in subtle ways.

For instance, a couple may walk through a house during the Parade of Homes and love the way it looks and feels. Later, at the kitchen table, they sketch a layout on paper and decide to take the next step, ultimately working with a contractor different than the one who built the Parade house. Is this copyright infringement? Probably.

It is the consumer’s responsibility to be forthcoming about his or her plan’s origins, just as the builder should ask questions about the drawing. But if the couple says nothing and the builder takes the sketch as original, everyone involved has just entered into a bad situation.

Before using any floor plan that you have seen on paper or experienced by touring a home (even a friend’s home), be certain to find out its origins. Many times a builder will consider selling rights to a plan.

Copyright owners have the right to give their property away, to release the design for general use, and to transfer it to the public domain.

Consumers should look for a written release signed by the copyright owner to be certain he or she has placed the plans or drawings in the public domain. For a complete article on copyright infringement, visit www.hbafm.com.

he U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Lead: Renovation, Repair and Painting rule governing the work of professional remodelers in homes built before 1978 took effect April 22, 2010.

The rule addresses remodeling and renovation projects for all residential and multi-family structures built prior to 1978 that disturb more than 6 square feet of painted surfaces inside the home or 20 square feet on the exterior of the home, due to possible lead paint contamination.

Many remodelers and home renovators in the F-M metro area have complied with the rule by taking a required eight-hour certified renovator training course offered through the Home Builders Association of F-M and other providers.

The full rule and Renovate Right brochures for consumers can be downloaded from the Environmental Protection Agency’s website: www. epa.gov/lead.

Tips for Homeowners Hire a Certified Renovator for home remodeling projects.

Professional remodelers who have achieved EPA lead-safe certification are trained and prepared to work in pre-1978 homes for minimizing dust and potential lead paint exposure.

Read Renovate Right.

Your certified renovator will provide you a copy of the Renovate Right brochure produced by the EPA.

Pay attention to warning signs and do not enter containment areas.

The certified renovator will post warning signs and set up areas of containment using plastic to keep dust under control. Pay attention to these notices and stay away from these areas. The remodeler uses these techniques and lead-safe work practices to minimize lead dust exposure.

Consider testing for lead.

You may ask the certified renovator to use test kits for testing certain surfaces for lead. If the test comes back negative, the remodeler will not need to use lead safe work practices because the component has tested lead-free.

Maintain records about your home remodel.

After the remodeling job is complete, the EPA-certified renovator will share records with you, such as a checklist describing the work practices used and any results from lead testing. Be sure to keep these records and share them with the next homeowner, if you should sell your home.

{Energy Star}

A

by Krista Mund s the nation moves toward higher energy efficiency, its goals are to reduce pollution and slow down consumption of nonrenewable resources. The added benefit for consumers and homeowners is cost savings associated with less fuel and water.

Energy Star is a program that has been around for years, indicating a higher level of energy efficiency in new homes. To earn that rating, a home must meet guidelines for energy efficiency set by the Environmental Protection Agency. They are typically 20-30 percent more efficient than standard homes. Some homes on the Home Builders Association of F-M’s Parade of Homes have earned the Energy Star rating, and it is noted on their listings in event magazines.

An Energy Star qualified home can include a variety of energyefficient features: • Effective Insulation - Properly installed and inspected insulation in floors, walls and attics ensures even temperatures throughout the house, reduced energy use and increased comfort.

• High-Performance Windows - Energy-efficient windows employ advanced technologies, such as protective coatings and improved frames, to help keep heat in during winter and out during summer.

These windows also block damaging ultraviolet sunlight that can discolor carpets and furnishings.

• Tight Construction and Ducts - Sealing holes and cracks in the home’s “envelope” and in heating and cooling duct systems helps reduce drafts, moisture, dust, pollen and noise.

A tightly sealed home www.energystar.gov improves comfort and www.kwh.com indoor air quality while www.togetherwesave.com reducing utility and www.xcelenergy.com maintenance.

• Efficient Heating and Cooling Equipment - In addition to using less energy to operate, energy-efficient heating and cooling systems can be quieter, reduce indoor humidity and improve the overall comfort of the home. When properly installed into a tightly sealed home, this equipment won’t have to work as hard to heat and cool the home.

• Efficient Products - Homes may also be equipped with qualified products — lighting fixtures, compact fluorescent bulbs, ventilation fans and appliances such as refrigerators, dishwashers and washing machines.

by Krista Mund ike fashions we wear to show our personality, the styles of our homes change from year to year. Interior designers agree, the most important consideration in designing any home is adopting a look and feel that is comfortable for you and your family.

Nancy Michelsen, Vivid Interiors, says trendy styles for 2013 include “metropolitan” which echoes boutique and hotel-scale with modern flare, and femme fatale, which can be described as feminine (not girly) and lends a 1940s influence with splashes of pinks and purples and soft, curvy lines.

Here is a closer look at the trends for color and home décor if you are planning a change for 2013:

Color

According to Sylvia Lunski, Design Direction, Inc., accent colors of lime green, orange, yellow and cobalt blue suggest Americans are hopeful about the future. Neutrals are being used for larger purchases like cars, sofas, carpeting and tile.

“Brown is still the strongest,” she says. “It’s taken on a platinum hue to coordinate with stainless appliances. It’s also changing to lighter mocha tones and warm spice tones.”

Fabrics and prints

Fabrics will see the return of rich chenille textures and inviting velvets, as well as rich irridescent shimmery fabrics.

Accent items will include faux fur throws and pillows and 190

2013 HBA of F-M Directory & Consumer Guide

{interior design trends} luxurious silk pillows, lavishly embellished with glass and wooden bead trims, and sequence accents.

Michelsen says stripes are popular, as this feature brings out interest and shows movement in a space.

“They are always fun to work with!” she says. “Stripes break things up, yet keep it clean.”

Patterns featuring animals within the prints (not actual cheetah or zebra patterns) will be used to add variety to rooms. The most popular animals are dogs and elephants.

“This is my way of bringing pets into the home that requires little maintenance!” Michelsen says.

Floral is always a good staple of choice and, with a fresh take, can add just the right touch: an example of this trend could be flowers with modern-looking buds and Scandinavian-influenced posies.

Floors

Lunski sees an increase of vinyl products replicating the look of wood, which are more affordable and easier to maintain. Carpeting has unique subtle patterns and textures, tone-on-tone and subtle color variations. Today’s “berber” versions have more pattern, texture, color and variations in height and sculpture effects.

“Wide-plank, hand-scraped, distressed floors that replicate a historical look have become popular.,” Lunski says. “Exotic wood species from all over the world bring unique rich colors and patterns to any room.

Ceramic tiles are larger in size (12” x 24” up to 24” x 24”) and gaining popularity.”

Walls

Lunski says wallpaper is coming back in a big way with bold patterns and prints, along with patterns that reflect elements found in nature such as trees, leaves and floral designs.

Michelsen says, “Energized, contrasting color moods are the trends in paints. With the embrace of the influences competing for attention in today’s busy world, we are being shaped by the energies around us.”

She reminds homeowners that personal preferences are always important, yet designers see people combining colors in their homes that create an unexpected harmony. While there is not a big shift in color trends from 2012 to 2013, there are some unexpected surprises: • Deep navy will be used in place of black for 2013, and blue will be used as a neutral color as this shade is popular among both men and women.

• •

Yellow will be more mellow than the neon of last year, and it will be used as more of a muted backdrop in rooms that have darker, rich tones placed against it.

Red will be used in moderation as the power color, taking place of the orange which was an attention grabbing shade of 2012.

Furniture

To complement the rich fabrics and luxurious accent pieces, furniture will trend toward clean sleek lines, darker wood tones and fun accent pieces with painted colors, as well as the “reclaimed look” and agedlooking metal.

Lunski says, “Smaller spaces require multifunctional pieces such as storage ottomans which are used as an ottoman, cocktail table and storage. Murphy beds are great for limited spaces and night tables which have pull-out shelves, outlets and USB ports for charging laptops, iPads and phones.”

Michelsen reiterates the importance of focusing on how a room makes you feel, rather than if it has the latest color or accessory.

“As with any really great design, you have to really love your space, despite what the trends are. I consider these more of a sense of direction or a guide,” she says. “I enjoy spaces that encourage people to feel cozy and want to stay awhile.

Company may not easily know that it is the color making the difference and setting the mood in your newly painted space. I just love when people say, ‘I really feel good in this room, I just can’t put my finger on what it is!’”

{maintenance tips}

aintaining a clean home is one way to ensure its longevity.

Here are some tips for properly maintaining some of the systems in your new home:

Heating and Cooling Systems • • • •

Late summer or early fall are the ideal times to do an annual inspection and cleaning of these systems.

Change or wash the filters every three months.

If you have a gas furnace, keep your pilot light burning during the summer to help keep the furnace dry and prevent corrosion.

Registers help regulate the flow of air and maintain the desired temperature in your home. Keep registers closed in rooms you don’t use to save on cooling/heating costs.

Plumbing • •

•

Every member of your family should know where the intake valves are located. Label each one.

If any of your appliances develop a leak, inspect your drain trap.

A partially clogged drain can cause overflow. Use a plunger or a plumber’s snake to unclog the drain. If you need to, use boiling water to help unclog a partially opened drain. Call a plumber if these techniques don’t work.

A worn washer, a loose part in a faucet or steam in a hot water pipe are generally the causes of a noisy pipe. Do not hesitate to repair the noise — vibrations can follow the noise and lead to leaks.

Gutters and Downspouts • • •

Clear away leaves, tree limbs and other debris from gutters and downspouts.

Turn the downspouts away from your home’s foundation.

Every four to six years, paint gutters that are not made of aluminum or vinyl to help prevent rust.

Remember to read the instruction manual for every appliance in your new home. The manuals provide recommended cleaning and maintenance schedules. Also familiarize yourself with any warranties you have on both the house and its systems. Some warranties may be voided if problems arise because of failure to perform routine maintenance.

by Krista Mund athroom remodels are hot! In a 2012 survey conducted by the National Association of Home Builders, nearly 80 percent of remodelers responded that bathroom renovations comprised their most common jobs in 2011.

In general, homeowners update their bathrooms to replace worn and outdated components and because they enjoy the home they are in, but want newer and more stylish amenities.

Mike Arnold, Accent Kitchen & Bath, says this trend is no different in the FargoMoorhead area.

If you are one of those homeowners planning to renovate a bathroom, he shares the following tips to get the most bang for your buck when putting some extra punch in your powder room: 1. Go for natural stone products Why? They never go out of style and can be used on floors and walls. Color may be achieved with wall paints and less expensive areas to be changed later. “This ultimately is your best longterm return on investment,� he 194

{bathroom updates} says. “In the mean time you, as a homeowner, get to enjoy a higher-end lifetime product. Most all other products start to look dated after ten years. Since bathrooms are one of the most expensive rooms to remodel, doing it less often is wise.”

2. Invest in heated floors – Arnold estimates this update will result in 100 percent of a homeowners’ money back.

“The better heating systems have a minimum of a 25year life,” Arnold says.

“Completely installed they run about $1,500. New buyers will surely see the value in heated bathroom floors.”

3. Sound-proof walls and select a heavy door. This change is inexpensive to do and cuts down on noise, which can be a big plus if a bathroom is next to a bedroom. Who wants to be roused from sleep by the sound of a hair dryer, shower or toilet flushing if it can be avoided?

4. Think about a walk-in shower – Grimy, grungy shower doors are a homeowners’ constant Articles

enemy. This option eliminates doors which usually look worn after a few years even with a diligent housekeeper.

5. Install a high-end exhaust fan – This feature may not be the most aesthetically pleasing or exciting, but it is very important to help remove moisture from the bathroom.

“Excessive condensation is never good,” Arnold says.

“This will save replacements and fixing problems down the road.”

6. High-quality faucets and supply lines – The reasons for these are simple: inexpensive faucets often leak and the finish does not hold up over time. Poor quality shut-offs and supply lines burst and can flood homes.

7. Tall toilets – What are called “comfort-height” toilets have become common as people have gotten taller over the years.

“Plus, they use less water so you save thousands of gallons of water per year,” he says.

by Krista Mund he newest home design trends support modern lifestyles and adapt to changing needs of today’s busy families. Home buyers want to be able to take advantage of emerging trends that incorporate creative use of materials, layouts and features that provide maximum utility and beauty, while being cost-conscious at the same time.

Phil Stahl, Stahl Architects & Builders, shares five trends he sees locally in newly built homes: • Mudrooms – These utilitarian rooms are almost a given now, complete with storage for children’s, adults’ and pets’ stuff: they include cubbies, special areas for sports equipment, message boards and paper control, and sometimes integrated laundry facilities. “Basically these rooms help control the ‘mess,’” Stahl says.

• Garage enhancements – With households now treating the garage as an extension of living quarters, they are implementing organization systems to get almost everything off the floor and keep order of items for the lawn, home exterior, auto care and sports equipment. Stahl also sees more and more of the special epoxy floors in the garage that protect the floor from damage and are easier to clean than traditional concrete.

• Steam showers – As many adults lead more hectic lives, homes are becoming the essential retreat from it all. Some choose to put in custom showers, even making them into saunas. “The high-end units allow homeowners to call in and get the shower to begin preparing steam for when they walk in the door from a long commute!” Stahl says.

• Outdoor rooms – Following a West Coast trend, outdoor rooms are taking hold in this region: they basically consist of the back of the home sheltering an outdoor space either with a trellis, pergola or full roof with built-in grill, bar and/or seating and stamped concrete or special paving. “With our area’s somewhat limited ‘outdoor’ season, these structures help block the windy FargoMoorhead days in the fall for a few more activities outside prior to the snow,” he says.

• Modern designs – Stahl sees these tendencies taking the lead locally with open floor plans, less formal dining, more retro modern colors, darker wood cabinetry and quartz countertops.

Some trends seen across the nation by the National Association of Home Builders’ leading home builders and architects include: • Reworked spaces – New homes are being designed to allow plenty 196

{home layout trends}

•

of space for family interaction in high-traffic areas such as the kitchen, and to eliminate rooms such as formal dens and home offices that aren’t frequently used. Small spaces devoted to home management, also known as “pocket offices,” are being included in large pantries or spaces near the kitchen or family great room.

Multi-generational living – Many families live under one roof due to increasing cultural diversity and the economy. New, singlefamily home designs reflect this with “shadow” units that are built alongside a home, or separate living units that access the main floorplan through a door, or homes with at least two master suites – often with one located on the ground floor to be more accessible for elderly occupants.

{edible landscaping}

s Americans become more health conscious, farmers’ markets, produce co-ops and community gardening spaces are gaining popularity. Many families want to grow their own food, but may be challenged by a lack of space for a full-sized garden in their yard. But did you know that with the concept of edible landscaping, you can have an attractive-looking yard or patio that also provides fruits and vegetables your family can eat?

According to the Ohio State University Extension Department of Horticulture and Crop Science, edible landscaping is the use of food-producing plants in the constructed landscape, principally the residential landscape.

Edible landscapes combine fruit and nut trees, berry bushes, vegetables, herbs, edible flowers and ornamental plants into aesthetically pleasing designs. The designs can incorporate any garden style and can include just a few, or be completely comprised of edible species.

Some reasons to include edible plants in your home’s landscaping include: Edible con’t on pg 200

•

Ability to pick and eat fresh, fully-ripe fruits and vegetables • Control the amount of pesticides and herbicides used on your food • Save money by not buying fruits and vegetables at the grocery store • Grow unique types of foods that may not be available in the store Many edible species are not only functional from a foodon-your-table perspective; they are also attractive. For example, some flowers, such as begonias, day lilies, carnations, pansies, peonies and roses can be eaten.

They also make a colorful addition to salads or as a garnish on plates. Red and yellow tomato and pepper plants add a splash of color to ornamental beds.

To help you get better use of your yard, raspberry or blackberry bushes make a great border, and fruit trees provide shade. Just make sure you consider where you are placing them, cleaning up rotten fruit or berries that have dropped onto your patio can be a frustrating and messy chore.

• More ideas for edible landscapes include: • Put pots of herbs on the patio

• Include cherry tomatoes in a window box or hanging basket • Build a grape arbor • Grow nasturtium, violas, borage, or calendula and include flowers in salads • Grow red-jewel cabbage • Plant colorful pepper varieties alongside flowers • Tuck lettuce, radishes, or other short-lived greens into a flower bed • Replace a barberry hedge with gooseberries • Put basil together with coleus in a planter • Try yellow or “rainbow” chard • Grow chives around the mailbox • Train raspberries up your fence The amount and location of consumable plant varieties you choose to include in your landscaping is completely up to your tastes, both literally and figuratively.

Make sure to do your research and know how much sunlight and water each plant requires, what type of soil will best support that species, and how much maintenance you’ll have to do to get the fruits and vegetables you desire.

{front porch trend}

O

utdoor living spaces are one of the most popular design trends of the past few years in both new home construction and remodeling, and it’s a trend that looks like it’s going to be around for many years to come.

Judges for the 2012 Best in American Living Awards, an annual National Association of Home Builders competition, noted outdoor spaces as an essential design trend that has expanded to homes nationwide and is at the top of many home buyer and renters’ must-have lists.

Whether you’re remodeling to make your home better-suited to your family’s current lifestyle or to spruce it up to be more attractive to potential buyers, adding a front porch can be a great option.

Here are some considerations you should think about when planning your new front porch:

If your home has the flexibility, what side of your home your porch is on can also be an important factor. A south-facing porch will take advantage of the sun’s heat, but could also get uncomfortable during the summer in hot climates.

If the idea of cocktails at sunset is appealing, place your porch facing west. Early risers may want maximum light to read the paper and sip coffee with eastern exposure.

Don’t forget about accessing the porch from the home, and what design impact that may have on the interior rooms. For example, you may want to install French or sliding glass doors from the living room or kitchen to create an entrance to the porch.

Size

Features

The porch is an accessory, so it shouldn’t overwhelm the main structure of the house. It should, however, be large enough to look like part of your home instead of an afterthought.

Think about what you want to use your porch for. If you envision dining al fresco with your family during the warm weather months, you’ll want a porch that’s at least 8 to 10 feet deep to accommodate a good-sized table and chairs. Six 202

feet or so should be sufficient if you just want to place a loveseat or a couple of chairs outside.

Location

In order to ensure aesthetic continuity, try to use the same materials to build your porch as are used in the home, especially the exterior surfaces. This includes coordinating millwork and other design motifs so that your new porch integrates smoothly with the rest of your home.
