Boost your home’s curb appeal Brandpoint

Summer continues to be the most popular months for selling your home, according to Realtor.com.

And with many homeowners staying in their houses for an average of 13 years, your home will surely need some sprucing up to add to its curb appeal. By following a these simple steps, you can increase your home’s value without breaking the bank.

• Rejuvenate the outdoor living area. Before making a trip to your local home center, make sure to wash the dirt, mildew and general grime off the outside of your house.

A power washer is a great tool to help clean siding and renew the surface of decks. A good washing will also bring out the true color

HOMES AND MORE

of a beautiful flagstone walkway or patio.

• Invest in the best tools for the job. One of the most useful tools in creating curb appeal is a hose. From power washing your deck and siding to maintaining your lawn and garden, your hose takes more abuse than any other tool.

• Give your yard a manicure.

When its best features are hidden by an overgrown lawn or shrubs, your home can appear uninviting. It is recommended to regularly mow grass to a length of two and a half to three inches. This not only helps the grass to grow, but it also provides for a thicker lawn to prevent weeds. Adding landscaping bricks around the border of your garden and flowerbeds also gives

your lawn a more premium look.

• Add seasonal color with the right vegetation. When choosing plants and flowers, consider what they will look like during different times of the year. For an all-season curb appeal, plant shrubs and flowers that offer colorful fall foliage or leaves with unique textures when not in full bloom. To help you get the best visual results, scout out the ideal locations around your yard before planting. Be sure to account for areas that are always in the sun or are well-shaded.

• Maintain the look. One of the key steps to preserving a healthy lawn and garden is to provide at least one inch of water per week through a regular watering schedule.

Tips to save money in a seller’s market NAPSI

If you’re planning — or even just dreaming — of buying your first home, a few tips and trends may prove intriguing.

According to the National Association of Realtors, home prices are up and accelerating because there are more buyers than homes for sale.

Here are three tips for first-time buyers looking to purchase in this seller’s market: • Know your budget and stay within it: Before you start shopping, find out what you can afford with a preapproval from a lender so you know how much money you can borrow. When determining your budget, consider the other costs of home ownership, including taxes, insurance and utilities.

When listings are scarce, home

prices tend to rise as bidding wars drive them higher. Don’t get caught up competing against other buyers and counteroffering above what you can comfortably afford.

Winning a bidding war could feel like losing if you end up spending above your means. Stay patient and walk away if the price surpasses your budget.

• Identify needs versus wants: No home is perfect and many people have to compromise on features when buying an existing home.

At the same time, you don’t want to end up settling for a house you don’t love.

Separate and maintain your focus on what you really want in a home against what you can live with (or without). A home in a certain school district or close to your job most likely falls into the former while a kitchen with a fancy backs-

plash is something you can add at a later date.

• Work with a realtor who knows the area: When housing supply is tight, an attractively priced home will likely draw multiple offers.

Find a Realtor with experience serving clients in your desired area. He or she can provide invaluable market information, including how fast homes are selling and for what price. A realtor can also help you with a negotiation strategy to make your offer stand out. To find one, go to www.realtor.com/ realestateagents and enter the zip code of the area where you want to buy.

Buying a home is arguably the most important financial decision you’ll make in your life. Working with a realtor and following this advice can give you the advantage you need.

Tackle your home’s stubborn stains and odors Brandpoint

From wall stains to washing machines, indoor stains and smells can be a challenge to tackle. Luckily, there are surprisingly simple methods to erase them for good.

Here are a few tips to freshen up the most stubborn spots in your home.

Conceal wall stains with primer Have your kids made artwork of your walls, or has your leaky roof caused a water-damaged mess? Tough wall stains like these can be hard to get rid of, but are easily sealed by applying a high-quality, stain-blocking primer.

Eliminate refrigerator odors Refrigerators are subject to a variety of spills and odors. Making time for fridge maintenance can help prevent unusual odors and keep your food fresh longer.

To cleanse and polish your fridge, begin by emptying the contents of your fridge and throwing out, recycling or composting any food that is expired or beginning to smell.

Next, pull out any removable drawers or shelving and place them in the sink. Using a damp, soft cloth or nonabrasive sponge, wipe down these pieces, the interior of your fridge and the door with a multi-purpose cleaner.

Or, mix two tablespoons of baking soda with one quart of hot water for a natural soap alternative. Don’t forget the seams of the shelves and rubber door seal.

Make grout lines shine Tile surfaces are prone to dirt and debris, especially in bathrooms or high-traffic areas. To keep tile looking fresh and new, grab an old toothbrush or electric toothbrush for a deeper scrub. Before you start, wash the surface with water then mix two parts baking soda with one part water. Scrub the resulting paste into the cracks and crevices, then douse with water again. If the grout lines are stained, spray a mixture of equal parts vinegar and warm water onto the area and brush. After a final rinse, the grime will be gone.

Prevent a moldy washing machine If you own a front-loading washing machine, you’ve probably noticed the unpleasant smell that can linger after completing a load of laundry. Despite being more energy-efficient, these machines have a tendency to hold odors and harbor mold. To clean and prevent grimy buildup, try this: instead of detergent, cycle two cups of vinegar and a quarter-cup of baking soda on a hot setting. When it’s done, use a clean sponge to scrub down the inside. Finally, rinse with a plain-water cycle, and you’ll see (and smell) the results.

Title insurance is usually the last thing a homeowner thinks about.

We want to keep it that way.

Community First TITLE AGENCY Caring about the community. First.

www.cftami.com 38

Behind the scenes of every real estate transaction is the title insurance industry – a nationwide corps of detail-minded professionals who conduct in-depth searches to find and remedy any problems for the seller, buyer, or lender.

Boundary disputes, liens, assessments, undisclosed heirs – the list of possible problems is considerable. Title professionals look for these problems. They then make every effort to resolve them so the deal can close and the home buyer can move in with peace of mind.

And should a title problem arise in the future, an Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance can provide complete protection – even to the point of paying for legal representation.

Title insurance isn’t something homeowners should think about. It’s simply something they should have.

5 tips for a seamless moving process Brandpoint Packing up your entire life and moving it somewhere new is an exciting, yet intimidating task.

Whether you're moving across the country or just down the street, you're bound to experience all the ups and downs of the moving process. Between the packing, moving and eventual unpacking, the process seems never ending.

It's easy to become overwhelmed when you look around your current home and ask yourself, "What am I supposed to do with all of this stuff?" First thing's first, you need a plan. Don't wait until the last minute to start cramming your belongings into boxes. Take some time to create a moving strategy before taking action.

If you're planning a move and are struggling on how to get started packing, follow these tips from Apartment Therapy and Staples for a smooth and painless moving process.

• Don't wait to get organized. Don't make the mistake of procrastinating. Even if you're not planning to move anytime soon, you can still take small steps to help your future self. If your home feels like chaos, slowly organize each room, one at a time. When it comes time to pack up and go, you'll be better prepared to take on the challenge.

• Purge before packing. View the moving process as a shining opportunity to clear out the clutter. Don't move anything you won't need or want in your new home. The more items you donate or throw away, the less you'll have to pack and move. Your new home will also feel more like a fresh start after paring down your belongings. For added convenience, some charitable organizations offer a pick-up service for donations.

or unloading the moving truck. They'll know exactly where to drop off each box.

• Color code and pack by room. Using moving boxes and plastic totes, create a system where each box contains items from only one room. You'll be able to simply drop a box in a room of your new home and not have to move it again until it's unpacked. Color coding the boxes by room is helpful to anyone helping you move

• Become a label person. Don't waste time running around searching for lost documents or important items. When it comes to organization, storage and moving, labels are your best friends. Take an inventory of all the boxes you've packed so you're sure not to lose track of any. Keep a master list of each box

Prepare your credit for homeownership Brandpoint

Homeownership is a dream for many Americans, and maybe it’s one of yours as well. Making this dream a reality requires hard work, dedication and the proper preparation. You must figure out where you want to live, what type of home you desire, what you can afford and also how your credit rating may impact your home-purchasing goals.

Your credit rating can play an important role in the home buying process, and your creditworthiness could also affect the amount that you can borrow, the interest rates you will qualify for and your ability to obtain a mortgage loan in the first place.

“A consumer’s credit is one of the biggest factors that goes into the mortgage-application process,” says Eric Hamilton, President of Vanderbilt Mortgage and Finance,

Inc. “Before applying for a loan, it is crucial to get your credit in the best shape you possibly can.”

To help you build good credit and increase your ability to obtain better loan terms, follow these tips: • Pay your bills on time Late or missed payments on any of your credit accounts, such as credit cards, mortgages and other loans, could cause a drop in your credit score. To prevent this, make your payments on time. Making additional payments whenever possible and paying extra toward the principal balance will also help to keep a good payment history and decrease the payoff timeline.

• Minimize any outstanding debt and keep existing debt manageable Paying your statement balances in full instead of letting debt accumulate can improve your credit scores, which may result in better terms being offered from lenders.

Lenders often check your credit

report when you apply for a loan and measure the amount of debt you’re carrying against the loan amount they’ve requested. Excessive debt is one of the factors that could cause a lender to decline your application.

• Avoid applying for unnecessary credit Credit applications can appear as inquiries on credit reports, which may suggest to lenders that an applicant is taking on additional debt. Be aware of advertising or sales promotions that offer purchase discounts if you apply for a credit card. Even these cards could show up as inquiries on your credit report. These inquiries remain on credit reports for two years. Instead of applying for additional credit, use your existing lines of credit to showcase your responsible credit management by paying bills on time and paying off the debt quickly.

Top home improvements that help sell your home StatePoint

W

hile certain home upgrades provide obvious aesthetic enhancements, it’s important to ensure the projects are worth the

expense.

The following three home improvements provide especially impressive returns on their respective investments, making them excellent choices to consider with an eye on selling your home.

Bath and Kitchen Bathroom and kitchen renovations are great bets, according to the National Association of Realtors.

However, ripping out these rooms and building them completely anew is an extreme expense that might not give you an immediate investment return.

Instead, check out refinishing services, whose work can provide more value than a full replacement. For example, Miracle Method takes ugly bathtubs, countertops, faucets and other fittings, and refurbishes them to look newly installed. This service will increase the useful life of those fixtures by more than 15 years, at a fraction of the cost and time of a replacement.

In fact, company president, Chuck Pistor, started out as a very satisfied customer of this franchise.

When he realized how efficient and economical the concept was for homeowners, he bought the company.

Wash Your Windows Newly washed windows can make a huge impression on potential homebuyers.

“The difference in the light streaming in, and the overall impression of the home after a professional window cleaning, is amazing,” says Rik Nonelle, president of Window Genie, a well-known window cleaning and window tinting franchise.

Reaching those upper level windows for a good exterior cleaning can be tricky and dangerous to DIY, however. For a more detailed and precise job, consider using a professional service; it’s an affordable way to give your home a facelift.

New Floors New floors, particularly the latest in engineered flooring, are high in demand among potential home buyers. It’s no wonder; since engineered flooring is comprised of wood layers stacked cross-grain and bonded together under heat and pressure — a process that makes them stain resistant and more durable where pets’ claws and children’s toys are HURON DAILY TRIBUNE • www.michigansthumb.com

concerned “Today’s engineered floors have the beauty and durability of wood, and are available in every color and style you can walk upon,” says Tom Wood, president of the popular mobile franchise concept, Floor Coverings International. “Investing in new flooring can dramatically increase the resale value of your home.”

With its mobile capability, a local franchisee of Floor Coverings International can bring up to 3000 samples right to your door, a great convenience when you are in the process of updating your home for sale. Neutral tones, such as pale gray or a dark walnut stain will make the home-selling process easier.

Affordable home improvement franchises and cleaning services that offer great value abound. For those planning to sell their homes in the near future, considering each project’s return on investment is important when choosing which home upgrades to make.

5 ways to get buyers to see your open house as their next house Brandpoint

W

hat makes a person or a family decide a home is the perfect for them? Is it all location, location, location? What about price, schools or the neighborhood? Or is it something else; a feeling they get when they walk in the door, a detail they notice or a scent in the air.

If you’re selling your home your home, your location, neighborhood and school district are predetermined. Yet there is plenty you can do yourself to make sure your open house has that wow factor and captivates would-be buyers. Here are five tips to get you started so that next family will determine your home is the perfect home.

• Get clean. It sounds simple, but it’s amazing how many homeowners don’t clean their homes before an open house. This is one case where lived-in isn’t going to cut it. The kitchen and bathrooms should be spotless, cracked tiles should be repaired and any plumbing issues should be addressed. Expect that people will try the sinks and flush the toilets. If you don’t feel you can get your home ready on your own, hire a professional cleaning service to do the job for you. The money you spend on the cleaners will be well worth it when your house sells quickly.

• Add a fresh sent to the air. Your home should be pleasing to the eye as well as pleasing to the nose. Realtors have recognized the benefits of great smells for years. You can keep your home smelling great throughout the showing — and without synthetic ingredients — by using pure essential oils from Aura Cacia. Try this simple recipe to create a warm, comforting atmosphere that can help put potential property buyers at ease with these recipes: 1 cup coarse-grained, chunky sea salt 1 teaspoon jojoba or grapeseed oil (just enough to make the salts glisten) 25 drops vanilla precious essential oil 10 drops lavender essential oil 10 drops sweet orange essential oil

Mix salt and oils, pour into a decorative dish or bowl and set out on a table. Placing the crystals in a warm sunny window or near a heat register will help diffuse the delicious aroma throughout the room. Stir in additional essential oils to boost the scent as needed.

More recipe ideas and open house tips can be found at www.auracacia.com.

• Time for a makeover. If your home needs a more substantial makeover before it can sell, focus your energy and your money on the most important rooms in the home. Kitchens and master bedrooms sell homes, meaning that a granite countertop, new appliance or fresh coat of bedroom paint will give you a better chance to sell your home than other projects may allow.

• Cut the clutter. Even the cleanest homes still feel messy if there’s lots of clutter. Before your open house, adopt a minimalist approach and keep your home as clutter-free as possible. Remember, you want buyers to see the beauty of your home, not simply the items you keep in it.

• Start at the curb. Poor curb appeal can put buyers off to your home before they even step foot inside.

Make sure your home’s outside is every bit as beautiful as the inside. Paint the exterior if you need to, plant flowers in the flower bed and mow the lawn. Buyers should never walk up to your front door already thinking it’s a fixer-upper.

An open house provides an excellent opportunity to showcase your home and help buyers fall in love with.

And once they do, they’re sure to make your current home their future home.
