Valentine’s Day done right at home Romantic experience in dining room Lisa Evans For Postmedia News Whether you’re married or in the bloom of a new relationship, a romantic dinner for two is likely at the top of your Valentine’s Day todo list. If crowds and overpriced menus are mood killers, why not create a romantic dining experience in the comfort of your own home? From linens to lighting, we have everything you need to transform your everyday dining space into a romantic restaurant for two.

“White linens with red accents is elegant and romantic,” says interior designer Carrie Colton.

Dress up the table

Postmedia News photos

Avoid going overboard with decorations, says interior designer Carrie Colton. Keep flower arrangements low, along with the lights, and clear any dining room clutter to avoid distraction.

“White linens with red accents is elegant and romantic,” says Car rie Colton, interior designer with Ottawa’s CKY Design Group. Add some texture

to your table with a silk or lace tablecloth and add red accents such as red charger plates beneath white

dinner plates, red napkins dressed with silver napkin rings, red flowers and, of course, red wine.

While red is the colour of romance, too much of it can be overwhelming and anxiety inducing —

see your sweetie over the long-stemmed roses. Instead, scatter red rose pedals around the table or collect small bud vases or egg cups and place one red or pink flower in each. “They can be set up in a heart shape or scattered in and around the dishes,” says Colton. If flower allergies are a concer n, place a white candle in a short three- or four-inch vase and fill the bottom with red cinnamon hearts to create a festive centrepiece.

not what you want for a romantic evening. “Red is the colour of passion, desire and love, but it is also a symbol of danger, anger and pain,” says Colton, who recommends using white as a base colour and mixing in accents of red, pink and silver to create a sophisticated, romantic atmosphere.

Flowers Because it is Valentine’s Day, flowers are almost a given, but avoid a tall bouquet so you’re not straining your neck all night to

Report calling Saskatchewan unaffordable got it all wrong Alan thomarat

CEO and President Canadian Home Builders’ Association — Saskatchewan The recently released International Housing Affordability Survey last month reported that Saskatchewan incomes are lagging behind housing costs, making both Regina and Saskatoon almost as unaffordable as Calgary. Obviously, based on the admitted use of limited criteria it’s difficult to place much weight on the statements coming out of this work. Even only slightly more robust methodology would have produced results that clearly contradict the overstatements from the report. For Saskatchewan, the survey only reported for the two largest cities. In the Demographia Report, affordability was measured by dividing median house price in a community by median household income, which created a median multiple. Housing affordability is rated on a scale, with anything over 3.0 being unaffordable; the survey rated Saskatoon at 4.3, an increase over last year’s 4.0; the median house price is 4.3 times the median household income. Regina was measured at 3.8 for the median multiplier, slightly better than Saskatoon. However, when looking closely at the data used to calculate the median multiples, the housing prices used were from the third quarter of 2012; the median household income, though, is from 2006. The median house price in Saskatoon is reported at 2012 levels of $283,200; while the median house-

hold income is reported at 2006 levels of $66,500. For Regina, the multiplier used a median house price of $266,000 and the 2006 household income of $70,900. As Saskatchewan has experienced a strong and growing economy over the last seven years, it is fair to assume the median income will have increased, especially in Regina and Saskatoon, given employment strength and surging housing production, which has clearly softened housing price growth. The reality is that Saskatchewan residents are receiving better wages and living more comfortably, while the economy remains strong and the province continues to prosper as jobs are created and the tax base expands along with the population. Residents in Saskatchewan enjoy competitive and relatively low utility costs, one of the lowest unemployment rates in Canada and a high base personal exemption for provincial income tax. In 2013, the basic personal exemption or amount of income not subject to Saskatchewan income tax is $15,241. According to RBC’s Housing Trends and Affordability Report from November 2012, there is little evidence of undue affordability-induced strain. The RBC report states, “While properties continued to appreciate for the most part in the third quarter in the province, gains were comparatively more modest (condo prices even fell slightly) and any hit on affordability was easily offset by rising household income.” Increasing housing prices have been mitigated by an increase in supply. We shouldn’t be too offended when we realize that the data used for these misleading statements was also used for all Canadian cities that were cited in the report. This suggests to me we really

should ignore the results for the Canadian cities surveyed in this “international” report. However, it must be made clear that such reports, while seemingly only misleading, have the potential to cause harm, interfere with market activity and result in unintended consequences. Economic developers and those most engaged in investment attraction and recruitment are now expected to respond to unsupported accusations. Often hours and possibly weeks of intense efforts and expenditure of resources to advance the business case in Saskatchewan are at risk while we defend our strong case against statements that are not supported by facts. Not too long ago, in fact in August 2008, a similarly flawed research report from Merrill Lynch suggested that home prices on the Prairies, and particularly in Regina and other Saskatchewan communities, were overvalued and would result in a rapid decline in both the value and the sales activity of homes in Saskatchewan. History and facts clearly show the opposite has been the case and the strong fundamentals of the Saskatchewan economy offer a strong case for home ownership and investment in the province. As the voice of the residential construction industry, the Canadian Home Builders’ Association — Saskatchewan continues to be committed to a housing strategy that provides quality, affordability and choice in housing in all communities throughout Saskatchewan.

Dim the lights Lighting is key to setting the stage for romance. “The lighting should be warm and low,” says Colton. Bright overhead lights can be harsh on the eyes and feel tense. To c re at e a re l a xe d at m o sphere, replace 100- and 75-watt light bulbs with soft 40-watt ones. Replacing your regular switch with a dimmer can also give you

more control in setting the mood. Add some candles to illuminate the table. While taper candles are most often associated with a romantic dinner, opt for a more modern twist by using tea lights in small glass holders.

as the children’s homework space or is where you pay your bills, hide all the evidence in a drawer or drape a satin fabric around the room to cover it up.

Eliminate distractions

You may be dining at home, but your sweatpants and favourite hoodie can quickly spoil a romantic mood. You’ve gone through all the trouble to dress up the table, why not dress yourself up, too?

Clear the dining room of any unromantic items that can distract from the mood you’ve created. If your dining room is also used

Make it right

ta x a dv i c e

Keeping the noise down is easy

RRSPs can help first-home buyers

MIKE HOLMES Make it Right

It’s no secret that lots are getting smaller and homes are being built closer and closer together. You can tell just by looking at older subdivisions — and I’m not even talking that old, just 20 to 30 years — and comparing them to new ones. Attached living spaces, like townhouses and condos are also on the rise. Most major cities across the country are seeing this huge push for more multi-unit living spaces. This all spells out one thing: We’re living closer to our neighbours. And the closer we get, the more likely noise is going to be an issue — and the more popular soundproof products and materials will be. When noise becomes an issue between neighbours it can be a real nuisance. You can feel awkward bringing it up to a neighbour if their noise disturbs you. You’re probably going to be telling the kids to keep it down more often, which isn’t fun for anyone. You might feel like you have to whisper and limit noise-making activities — such as vacuuming or playing music — to certain times so you don’t bother anyone. It can feel like being a prisoner in your own home. It’s really no one’s fault — just poor construction. You could have the quietest neighbours. But if the walls between your homes aren’t properly constructed, you will hear the footsteps, the talking, the kids. Sound is measured in decibels, so pros will use a decibel

The Holmes Group

Proper insulation along shared walls, such as semi-detached homes, will help contain noise within each unit. metre to measure how much noise travels through a surface, like a wall or ceiling. We use STC or sound transmission class to measure how much sound moves between the exterior and interior of a home and between living units. The higher the STC rating, the better. A wall built to minimum code should be able to block 46 STCs. The problem is that there are high and low frequencies. High frequencies are easier to eliminate. Homes built to minimum code can block out high-frequency sounds. It’s the low frequencies that are harder to deal with. Low frequencies are the bass or the boom you hear when people walk. To get rid of those you have to spend money. So what can you do to solve the problem? A contractor interested in a quick fix might tell you to add another layer of drywall — right over the existing drywall, which will help. But I’d

rather use a better drywall product that gives a lot of soundproofing for not a lot of material. Soundboard is one option. But some drywall products are equivalent to eight sheets of drywall. One type has viscoelastic polymer on both sides of a thin layer of metal. The viscoelastic polymer eliminates sound by converting acoustic energy into heat. This product will stop sounds such as yelling and screaming, or the phone ringing — all high frequency sounds. It will also stop any low-decibel bass. But if you have a highdecibel bass where you crank the volume to the levels of a concert speaker, you’re going to need more than just better drywall to stop the sound. If sounds and noise are getting into your home the culprit is usually missing insulation. You want to use a proper, safe insulation on a shared wall. This serves two purposes: One, it stops

sound. Two, it stops fire. You don’t want to hear your neighbours and you don’t want a fire on their side to spread to your side. Makes sense to me. Many attached living spaces will have a double wall. That means there’s one wall on one side and another wall on the other side, and both walls are divided in the middle by drywall. Minimum code says that if you have a double wall only one of them needs to be insulated. But as long as we build to minimum code things aren’t going to work properly. If you want to make it soundproof, add more insulation. After going through the trouble of taking down drywall and adding extra insulation, you might as well go the extra mile. I would use sound wrap on any electrical boxes and receptacles along a shared wall. These are weak points that allow smells and sounds to travel. But sound wrap is like a putty; it sticks to any surface. And when you wrap it around electrical boxes and receptacles it doesn’t let sound travel through. You really get what you pay for. You could have a beautiful home with major noise issues. But if you spend a little more money you could stop the problem. The best solution is building it right the first time. I think most homeowners would be willing to pay for that extra silence if builders gave them that option. Because putting your money in the right place makes living at home sound a lot better.

Jim Yih Postmedia News Twenty years ago, I borrowed $10,000 from my RRSPs, under the federal government’s Home Buyers’ Plan, to help me purchase my first home. Since then, I have always been an advocate of the Home Buyers’ Plan. It’s a great deal for those looking to purchase their first home because they can borrow up to $25,000 from their RRSPs. Under the plan, you do not pay tax on the withdrawal because it’s like a loan that has to be paid back into the RRSP over a 15-year period. Each year, you have to pay back one-fifteenth of the borrowed amount. If you don’t, then the required payment becomes taxable that year. Here are two scenarios to illustrate how RRSPs and the Home Buyers Plan can be used to advantage.

NO RRSPS?

Mark has been working for three years, since graduating from university. He has saved $10,000 toward the purchase of his first home. His parents will match his savings and give him another $10,000. I suggested that Mark take both his $10,000 and his parents’ matching contribution and put it into to his RRSPs. After 90 days, he can get the money out through the Home Buyers’ Plan. This is advantageous because his $20,000 contribution creates a significant tax savings. Let’s assume Mark is in a 32-per-cent marginal tax bracket. That means that a $20,000 RRSP contribution will give him a tax refund of $6,400. That $6,400 can be used toward the down payment, or it can be used to

deal with all the other costs like legal fees, moving costs, utility hook ups, etc. By contributing the money to the RRSPs first, Mark is creating $26,500 for his home purchase.

FORMER PENSION

Stan has only saved $6,500. He has an RRSP at the bank worth about $3,500 and he has $8,000 in a defined contribution pension plan from one of his previous employers. Stan was thinking about cashing in this pension but normally pension money cannot be cashed out. But because the balance of the pension is less than 20 per cent of the current Yearly M a x i m u m Pe n s i o n abl e Earnings, he can. The problem is that Stan will have to pay tax on the withdrawal. Instead of getting $8,000, after paying tax he would only have $5,450. However, instead Stan is able to transfer the pension to his RRSP. He won’t get a tax deduction, but he can use the entire $8,000 toward the down payment of the home through the Home Buyers’ Plan. After transferring the $8,000 pension into the RRSP, he should also contribute his cash savings of $6,500 to it, as well. With the $3,500 already in his existing RRSP, he would then have $18,000 in the RRSP that can be pulled out through the Home Buyers’ Plan. In addition, his $6,500 contribution would result in a tax refund of approximately $2,000. This scenario will give Stan $20,000, compared to only $15,450 if he cashes out the pension and does not put the $6,500 into the RRSP. Jim Yih is a financial expert.
