However, only 5 million homes are sold in the U.S. every year. It’s a very crowded space, and your home should be on as many sites as possible. Make sure your agent also takes advantage of targeted print when advertising your home. More on this later...

4 TYPES OF SPECIALISTS TO USE WHEN MOVING There’s no getting around it—moving is stressful. This is especially true when you have valuables that need to be transported from your old home to your new one. While a good moving company is likely more than capable of handling the majority of your possessions, certain items may require working with specialists to ensure they’re delivered safely. Here are several types of moving specialists who can help deliver peace of mind when transporting your most prized possessions.

ART HANDLERS

WINE SHIPPERS

Artwork can be both extremely valuable and fragile, which means the back of any old moving truck is probably the last place you want your collection to be. Fortunately, there are plenty of professional services dedicated to moving art with the utmost care. Top-tier companies will often build custom crates for each piece, transport them in climatecontrolled containers and even install the art in your new home.

Moving a large wine collection requires taking ample precautions that go far beyond packing it securely. Bottle shock, for instance, can occur simply from being jostled around in transit. That’s why it’s always worth hiring a professional wine shipping service to carefully move your collection in specialized boxes and temperaturecontrolled containers. If necessary, it’s also important to use a company that’s licensed to transport alcohol across state lines.

JEWELRY COURIERS Jewelry is often a cause for concern when moving. It’s quite common to simply take it in the car with you and move it on your own, however, this isn’t always possible. If you’re moving a considerable distance, or have a collection that’s more valuable than you feel comfortable transporting, then a secure courier service, like Brinks or Malca-Amit, is the way to go.

CAR TRANSPORTERS For car collectors, moving can be a logistical nightmare. After all, you can’t just pack up a fleet of luxury vehicles and be on your way.

Professional car transporting services are ideal because they’re experienced in safely loading and unloading fine automobiles and will have enclosed carriers that protect them from the elements along the way.

THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN BUYING A SECOND HOME

P

urchasing a second residence is always a significant decision, especially if you intend to use it as a vacation home. Of course, there are many considerations to take into account beforehand, not the least of which is accounting for the associated costs of owning multiple properties for personal use. When you feel fully prepared to start looking for a second home, here are several additional factors to consider.

CATER TO YOUR LIFESTYLE While your primary residence likely caters to essential aspects of your daily life, such as proximity to schools and jobs, luxury buyers often seek a second home that supports their personal interests and provides access to a coveted lifestyle. Whether that means living in a golf community, in the mountains, or along the coast, this home should provide you and your family with a place to make special memories.

ACCESSIBILITY Are you willing to hop on a plane every time you go to your vacation property?

Or is it essential that it be a car ride away? It’s important to consider how, and how often, you plan to use this home. If you anticipate it being used for extended stays, perhaps you’re willing to travel a bit further, whereas you’ll probably want a weekend destination to be closer to your main residence.

SEASONAL OR YEAR-ROUND For some buyers, a deciding factor when choosing between two locations can be the amount of usage that they’ll get out of the home. While some properties can only be enjoyed for part of the year, one that has year-round appeal will allow you to get the most out of it.

LONG TERM GOALS Be sure to discuss how this property aligns with your long term goals with your financial planner. Whether you see it as a short-term investment or a place where you can retire someday, a second home is a significant asset that can help you to achieve your financial goals.

WORK WITH A LOCAL SPECIALIST Make sure that your real estate agent has proven experience in the area. Second home markets can be significantly different from a primary market, even if they are just a car ride away, which is why it’s always recommended to work with a professional who has an intimate understanding of the location that you’re looking in.

REMODELING?

QUESTIONS TO ASK DURING YOUR PRE-CONSTRUCTION MEETING Embarking on a remodeling project is an exciting endeavor—you’re finally going to get that new kitchen or finished basement you’ve been longing for. But going under the knife, so to speak, is also a stressful prospect. That’s why scheduling a pre-construction meeting with your remodeling professional is so important.

According to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), the pre-construction meeting is a key opportunity for the remodeler to explain exactly what will be done, as well as how the job will progress. It also provides a chance for both parties to define their expectations and flag any problems that may arise. The goal is to alleviate as many surprises in advance as possible.

With peak home remodeling season right around the corner, now is the time to contact your trusted contractor or home remodeler to discuss a remodel. Here are just some of the issues the NAHB recommends you discuss with your remodeling professional during the pre-construction meeting: Are you okay with signs on your property? In addition to acting as a marketing tool, signs help contractors and suppliers locate your home. Decide now whether you will agree to this.

If you have an alarm system, determine how it will be handled. Will you give the construction crew a key, or do you plan on having someone on the premises to let them in?

Ask if any utilities will be interrupted during the remodel, such as water or electric, and if so, for how long. This will help you decide whether you will need to find other accommodations for a period of time.

What are your rules concerning workers using your landline for local calls? What about using your bathroom?

Figure out a plan for removal of trash. Agree upon where the dumpster will be located.

Discuss which areas of your home will be off limits to workers. You may discover that workers need access to certain rooms for part of the project.

What will take place in terms of daily cleanup? Make sure your expectations are in sync with what will actually take place.

When will work begin and end each day?

Where will workers park? Once you find out, be sure to let neighbors know.

Let your remodeler know what your rules are when it comes to smoking, profanity and music.

Laying all of this out in advance will help make for a smooth project and a pleasant working relationship for all. So contact your local home remodeler or contractor today to start getting everything planned out.
