Maximize income from your Hilton Head property 2020 was a year like no other. Despite that, The Vacation Company team was able to provide a record-breaking income year for many of our Hilton Head Island homeowners. If you’re considering becoming a Hilton Head homeowner here’s an inside look at our rental-maximizing list!

Video–and pictures–are king! They’re the first things people look at when considering a vacation property, and the #1 reason they choose a home–or not.

√ Use a professional photographer and/ or videographer with a great deal of experience in architectural imaging. We’ve got some of the best! √ Make sure the space is clean, staged and the décor is perfect! If you’re not an interior designer, we can help. √ Get outdoor pictures of your home at twilight lit up with warm, welcoming light. √ Record a video tour with audio description. Check out some of the amazing property videos on our site!

Give your kitchen and bathrooms the most TLC updates and upgrades. √ Potential renters assume if your kitchen and baths are not updated than neither is any other part of your home. √ Prioritize improvements by updating kitchen first. √ Next upgrade master bath, and other baths from there. √ Have an Interior Designer guide assist you. √ Use stainless steel appliances. √ Use granite or similar level of quality for countertops. √ Consider plus-ups such as islands with seating for dining, custom cabinetry, gas stoves, and wine refrigerators.

SUPER INSIDER TIP: A good rule of thumb is to invest approximately 10% of yearly revenue to keep everything up-to-date and maintained at a quality level.

20

Repeat guests are the best guests!

√ Offer guests a token of your appreciation, such as a personalized gift basket. √ Another good gift is something with the name of your house engraved on it such as Tervis tumblers, dish towels–or even hand sanitizer. This serves as a reminder throughout the year of the wonderful times they had at your home.

Keep it current! Fashionable décor creates more demand for your home.

√ Make sure home furnishings are not tired or out-of-date. Even out-of-style decor and furnishings can deter a rental guest. √ You don’t need to go out and buy new things every season year after year. New throw pillows and a new bed spread can make a world of difference.

Be proactive seeking good reviews.

√ Good reviews are right up there with quality photography when it comes to the decision making process of the potential home renter. √ Encourage your property management company to proactively seek out and request positive reviews from your guests.

We do it all the time for our homeowners! √ If your property management firm won’t do that for you, call us because we absolutely will, no questions asked!

Take a hint or two from the competition–your neighbors.

√ When you can, go see what other neighboring properties or units look like. √ Find out what their upgrades are, and what type of décor and interior design trends their employing.

The cliché, “The grass is always greener,” works for added revenue too.

√ Well-maintained landscaping can play a big role so make sure your lawn is kept watered and trimmed. √ Utilize a variety of flowering plants that bloom at different times throughout the year to help keep the property colorful and evergreen.

Place Your Home And Confidence In Hilton Head’s Finest Property Portfolio.

Our focus has always been creating the highest level of success for our owners. 2020 certainly posed new challenges for property management companies and homeowners alike. However, we took our unmatched 3+ decades of experience, and our premier portfolio of almost 400 exclusive Hilton Head Island homes and paired that with first-class service with a personal flair for you and your property to maximize rental potential. Our team, which is made up of all locals with over 150 years of combined experience, took their intimate understanding of the island and provided unique guest experiences and unsurpassed homeowner earnings. Guess that leaves just one last thing to check off on your revenue-maximizing list… √ Call Bob Hawkins today at 843-686-6100 to find out about becoming an esteemed member of The Vacation Company’s premier home portfolio!

www.JeffHall.BeachClubRealEstate.com WENDY CORBITT SE A PINE S RE AL E STATE A native South Carolinian, Wendy Corbitt has been a Hilton Head Islander since 1975. With a degree in biology and a minor in chemistry, she worked in the medical field for many years, first as a clinical chemist then in immunology/oncology research, before becoming a licensed Realtor with Sea Pines Real Estate in 1998. Her analytical background and her love for people are a perfect match for helping buyers and sellers with their real estate needs.

Our wide sandy beaches, temperate climate, lush vegetation, boundless amenities and natural beauty make selling our area an easy task.

However, with so many excellent community choices, real estate decisions can be daunting for a newcomer. If Corbitt had one bit of advice to share with clients, it would be the importance of working with a knowledgeable and experienced real estate professional. Recognizing that the sale or purchase of a home is one of the most important financial decisions any of us make, finding the “right” real estate professional is essential.

Corbitt has been recognized as a Top Producer and Distinguished Sales Associate and is a recipient of numerous Realtor Service Awards.

She became a principal and broker-in-charge of Sea Pines Real Estate at The Beach Club in 2009. Her brokerage is the most recent recipient of The Hilton Head Area Association of Realtors’ prestigious President’s Cup. She has served on the board of directors for the Hilton Head Area Association of Realtors and the vestry at St. Luke’s Church. Passionate about her community and her profession, what thrills Corbitt is listening and learning from her clients to help buyers match their lifestyle with the absolute right home for them or to help sellers successfully market their properties to achieve their real estate goals.

If you are thinking of buying or selling, call or text Wendy Corbitt today.

843-384-7314

She is Extraordinary

“We have bought and sold eleven homes in five states. Without question, Barbra Finer is the most professional Realtor we have known. Aside from her mastery of negotiating both the price and terms of sale, she is more interested in her clients owning the right home at the right price than in getting commissions. She once advised us that a home we were ready to buy was “Not good value”. At that point she thought it was that home or none for us, so she was sacrificing her commission with our interest in mind. And she was dead right. The other unique thing about Barbra is how hard she works after a sale contract is signed, making sure every detail is understood and correct.”

–Terry and Nancy B.

10 Tips to Get the Best Price For Your Home

By Lynne R. Anderson REALTOR, Accredited Buyers Agent Sea Pines Real Estate at the Beach Club

I

n a Seller’s market, or a hot market, where home and villa inventory is low, there is strong competition among Buyers because their options are limited. Year to date Hilton Head home sales are up a whopping 68.4%, and median sales price has climbed by 31%.

Without a doubt, the Lowcountry is in a Seller’s market.

1. Keep your emotions in check. Stay focused on the business of selling your home and make decisions accordingly.

2. Hire a Realtor. Hiring an agent may cost more in commission but it will take the guesswork out of selling. When inventory is low, buyers rely even more heavily on agents and their respective networks to locate homes for sale when they come on the market, and sometimes before.

3. Review comparables. This market intel will help you understand pricing strategies to get the most attention from the right buyers.

4. Invest in good photography, videography and 3D tour technology. While the worst of Covid is hopefully behind us, many properties are still being sold via online photos and video tours.

5. Clean up your property. New pine straw, edging, pruning and a pop of colorful flowers in your landscaping will improve first impressions and offer prices.

6. Declutter your home. Remove the personal family photos and unnecessary accessories.

Give the Buyer a chance to envision his memories hanging on the walls.

7. Get your own appraisal. A recent appraisal can be invaluable when determining list price and can also be an excellent marketing tool. Most Buyers still use lenders to purchase homes, and if a home doesn’t appraise to the sales price, that

means that Buyer will have to come to the closing table with additional cash out of pocket. Some simply cannot.

8. Get a pre-inspection. If you don’t take note of the broken ceiling fans or rotten deck boards, be assured your Buyer’s inspector will. It makes sense to be prepared and repaired when you go to market. With a fully remedied inspection, consider selling “as is.”

9. Price your home just under the market.

This is a proven strategy to attract multiple offers up and over your targeted price.

Buyers inc competition tend to make higher and stronger offers.

10. Be prepared to move quickly, literally and figuratively. In a hot market offers come in quickly and properties will sell with fewer contingencies and shorter contract deadlines. Know where your next stop home will be.

ISLAND INFORMATION

Hilton Head Island Taxes REAL ESTATE AND PERSONAL PROPERTY TAX There are many tax districts in Beaufort County each with a corresponding tax rate. The map above will guide to for the local area.

REAL ESTATE TAX AT PURCHASE When you purchase real estate the county will use the purchase value to calculate the taxes due. This will be reduced to 4% of the purchase if you are to reside in the property and 6% if you use it for any other purpose. The result will then be subject to the millage for your district.

REAL ESTATE TAX AFTER PURCHASE The county uses an assessed value, determined by them, to calculate continuing real estate taxes. This is also reduced to 4% for residents or 6% for nonresidents. That number is multiplied by the corresponding millage rate to determine the amount of taxes.

Resident millage rate is lower than nonresidents as residents do not pay that portion of the millage relating to school operations.

40

IF YOU ARE OVER 65 One-year residents, or more, who are over 64, or blind, or have a disability may reduce their assessed value of their primary residence by $50,000 before reducing the assessed value to 4%.

AN EXAMPLE Purchase Price = $300,000 X 4 or 6 percent X the millage rate shown on the map above for your district = taxes due.

300,000 X 4% (resident) = 12,000 X .102 millage rate in Hilton Head Plantation = $1,224 in taxes due.

Remember, the information here is general in nature. If you have specific questions about your personal taxes you should check with the Country Auditor (843 255 2500), the Tax Assessor’s Office (843 255 2400) or your personal accountant.

SLIDING SCALE OF SC STATE TAX RATE FOR PERSONAL INCOME 2.5% on the first $2,530 3% on the next $2,530 4% on the next $2,530 5% on the next $2,530 6% on the next $2,530 7% on $12,650+

Jacque Johnson and her husband first visited Hilton Head in 1978 and left with full intentions of one day making the island with surrounding waterways their home. The low-country environs are truly unique in so many ways. Come explore real estate with her and learn why her core values of friendship, trust and dedication are your life-style gateway to living here, too.

Jacque put her core values to work first in a career of nursing and next made a change in 2002 to real estate where her care giving skills have served her well. She holds several real estate designations to effectively work with a wide variety of clients (CRS, ABR, CLHMS, SRES, SFR). She achieved her Broker’s license in 2006 along with receiving multi-year awards in local home buyer matchups. Jacque’s range of knowledge is quickly understood from luxury properties in Wexford, Leamington, and others to homes, villas and lots in the greater Hilton Head Island / Low-country area.

Jacque spent most of her life along the shores of New Jersey before moving full time to Hilton Head Island in 1996. She and her husband live in Wexford and have two sons who work and live in Southern California. Like their parents, they live close to the beach and enjoy the coastal lifestyle.

Jacque maintains her optimism and energy by staying active and volunteering in the community. She has served as a board member of the Hilton Head Island Boys & Girls Club for over fifteen years. She was also involved in implementing the island’s Community Thanksgiving Day dinner. She volunteers within her community at Wexford and at community events associated with the Hilton Head Area Association of Realtors. She and her husband attend and volunteer at St Andrew by the Sea United Methodist Church. They both enjoy all that Hilton Head Island has to offer, but relish the island’s connection to their love of boating, cycling & most other outside activities.

Looking for Space

by Bryan Mudrak, Owner of More Space Place in Bluffton and Mt. Pleasant, SC Space, the final frontier… or what we are all looking for in our homes. Moving to the Lowcountry can mean a lot of changes in our living arrangements. Often new homes include open floor plans, less walls and less spaces for our stuff. That’s right, we still have a lot of “Stuff” from bigger homes. The trick is how do we find more space for all our stuff. The folks at More Space Place have been figuring this out for the past 16 years and have some pretty good ideas.

The easiest starting point is your closet. Most new homes come equipped with wire shelving. They are not pretty, nor are they very functional when it comes to organizing your Stuff.

Customizing your closet can maximize the vertical space in your closets. Every inch can be utilized so you can easily access your clothes, shoes, and seasonal items. Many choose to build their dresser into the closet for the convenience of having everything in one place. The custom designed closet can organize your clothing, saving time, money and aggravation because you can easily find what you need. No more searching through clutter just to find that shirt or pants you KNOW you have somewhere. Closet rods can be set at heights to match your garment sizes. Adjustable shelving will help you find the perfect place for folded items, linen and shoes. Even the higher elevations of your closet can be used for seasonal and light weight items.

Your garage is an Oasis of storage ideas. Again, vertical storage with shelving can open the floor of your garage for what it was meant for…Your Car! That’s right, your car deserves a place in your garage too. There are lots of storage solutions for your garage

like a vinyl slat wall that houses hooks, shelves, baskets and many other vertical storage ideas. New bike racks allow you to easily roll your bikes onto the racks without lifting your bike off the floor. Ceiling racks can give you space for large containers for storing holiday decorations, camping, kayaks, hobby gear, and lawn equipment.

Finally, that lonely third or fourth guest bedroom can be made into a dual-purpose room.

Take out that bed that is used only a few times a year and replace it with a Murphy bed also known as a Wall bed. Now you have wide open spaces for a home office, a craft room, a man cave or just an open space for Yoga, exercise or ballroom dancing. What ever you want. It’s your space.

The best news is there are many cabinet colors and styles to choose. So, they don’t have to be just white cabinets anymore.

Modular cabinetry is now available in hundreds of colors and over almost unlimited styles. Cabinets are available in all shapes and sizes to truly customize the room to fit your desired wants and needs. Contact your local closet and Murphy bed retailer who may just have the perfect space saving solutions so you can keep all your “Stuff”.

Advantages of a metal roof

Provided by 4M Metals

If you would like to make your house more energy efficient, weather protected, create a beautiful design element and potentially never have to replace your roof again? This may be for you! While a metal roof is slightly more expensive than a shingle roof, the

advantages of choosing metal roofing greatly outweigh the cost. Here are a few reasons you should consider a metal roof: ENERGY EFFICIENCY: A metal roof is more energy efficient than a shingle roof. It can decrease your heating/

cooling costs significantly. Most metal roofing finishes are EnergyStar rated, this allows the panels to reflect rather than absorb heat and can keep your home cooler in the summer which prevents your air conditioning system from working so hard, therefore saving you money.

WEATHER PROTECTION: If you live in an area that is prone to hurricanes or harsh climates, metal roofing can help to protect your house from harsh winds up to 145 mph, severe storms and hail.

Many insurances companies provide discounts on homes that have metal roofing if you choose to put a qualified metal roofing system on your home.

LONGEVITY: A metal roof can last two – three times longer than a shingle roof, possibly a lifetime.

We are proud to be your fabrication expert in the Lowcountry and surrounding areas.

Let 4M Metals be the difference in your roof!

DESIGN AESTHETICS: A metal roof compliments many architectural styles, from a LowCountry home to a more contemporary design. Having a metal roof can also add value to the home for resale.

GREEN PRODUCT: Metal roofing is made of recyclable materials and is fully recyclable after its duration.

Pest Control That is “Above and Beyond”

By Bill Robertson, General Manager, Hilton Head Exterminators At Hilton Head Exterminators, the above and beyond culture that we have fostered over the past five decades can be described in three words, “Commitment, Reputation, Tradition”.

The foundation upon which we have built our reputation and tradition is our commitment, which was a “day one” decision as well as a daily priority.

Day one saw only one pest control company on the Island….Hilton Head Exterminators. We knew others would come, but we also knew if we lived up to our commitment we would build the largest and best pest control company on the island. We also set our sites beyond the island and have developed as the largest and best pest control in the Lowcountry.

Over the years our staff has received letters expressing satisfaction with our service. These days most of what used to come in the form of

Tip_Pest Control.indd 1

letters comes in the form of online reviews. One way of expressing satisfaction with above and beyond service is to give five star ratings.

We’re very proud of our overall customer satisfaction rating. It is an endorsement of our foundational commitment, and our reputation and tradition are verified by what our customers say about us.

As we move into our second halfcentury of protecting area homes and businesses, there have been many changes in the services offered. The development of the Sentricon Colony Elimination System and Termidor to protect against termite damage have provided two very dependable approaches to keep area homes and businesses safe. The newest threat to area homes and businesses is the Formosan Termite. We have led the effort to discover innovative ways to

control this devastating new breed of termite. Effective treatment of various other types of home invaders has improved to the degree that treating around the exterior of the home is more common than simply treating the interior.

We are humbled every time we get a five-star review. These serve to motivate us to work even harder to maintain our above and beyond ratings. We figure if we simply live up to our original commitment and continue the culture of above and beyond service, the reviews, and our growth, will take care of themselves.

Good Water Equals Good Health Provided by Culligan Water

Still using tap water? A recent survey shows that more than 50% of consumers will not drink water straight from the tap.

With a Culligan Water Conditioner or Culligan Drinking Water Filter there is no need to use or drink tap water. Every family has three types of water: raw water, working water and drinking water.

RAW WATER is the tap water supplied to your family from a private well or public water supply. Raw water is best used for sprinkler systems, watering lawns, plants, outdoor uses and washing cars.

WORKING WATER is the tap water your family uses to wash clothes and dishes, heating hot water, showering, flushing toilets and water using appliances.

LIFE WATER is the most important water for your family’s use.

It is the water for cooking, drinking, ice cubes, coffee/tea and your pets.

How well do you know your tap water? On a private well you should have your water tested annually by a registered

lab. With public water you should read their annual drinking water report which is available at your local PSD’s website. You can also check www.ewg.com and have your water tested by a professional. Testing your water is important for the safety and health of your family’s water uses.

Your professionally trained Culligan Man can provide you with a no-cost, no-obligation in-home water test to ensure peace of mind for your family.

The right stone for your surfaces

Provided by Savannah Surfaces MARBLE is a metamorphic rock resulting from intense pressure on limestone or dolomite. It is generally considered to be white, but it can be found veined with beautiful earthy colors caused by minerals present during its formation.

Best uses are for floors, walls, fireplaces and countertops.

There are so many options available for surfaces that it can be difficult to determine what style is the best fit for you. There are classics that will last a lifetime, and there are trends that come and go. Generally, kitchen decor lasts less than 10 years, so when creating your dream kitchen you want to consider a look that will stand the test of time.

Kitchen experts say requests for natural stone continue to be popular.

Homeowners prefer natural stone because it’s durable, fire-safe and strikingly beautiful. Stone often has a unique look based on where and how it was naturally formed.

Here are five types of stone widely used for residential purposes.

GRANITE is an igneous rock, which means it is volcanic lava or magma which has cooled and hardened. It is known for its durability and characteristic speckles.

Perfect for flooring, fireplaces and areas that receive moisture.

SLATE is a metamorphic rock which started out as volcanic ash or clay. It can be found in a variety of colors in addition to its usual shades of gray. Slate tiles are long-lasting, water resistant, and easy to care for as floors, counters and roofs.

LIMESTONE is a sedimentary rock composed largely of small mineral particles, particularly skeletal fragments

EST

O

of marine organisms. It is generally available in natural hues like white, offwhite, beige or gray. Most limestone cannot be polished so it retains a somewhat dull surface. It is not stain or etch resistant making it more suitable for floors, shower walls and fireplaces.

QUARTZ is a man-made engineered stone countertop formed by combining 90% ground quartz (a natural hard mineral) with 8-10% resins, polymers, and pigments. This forms a very hard granite-like surface that is extremely durable and nonporous.

SPOTLIGHT

Saving money is really a by-product of saving energy If you are a member of an electric cooperative, you might already be aware of the energy saving programs available to you. In an initiative known as Beat the Peak, Palmetto Electric Cooperative and other South Carolina electric cooperatives are working hard to manage energy use during peak times. Peaks occur on the coldest winter mornings and hottest summer afternoons, when the demand for electricity, and the cost for it, is the highest. By keeping energy usage low during these peak times, the co-op can lower total power costs.

Because electric cooperatives are not-for-profit companies, the savings are passed on to the co-op’s members.

By joining Beat the Peak, members can save both energy and money in a variety of ways. First, voluntarily sign up for Beat the Peak alerts to be notified by email, text or voice message at times when you can help reduce electricity use by turning off lights, adjusting your thermostat and delaying the use of major appliances such as hot water heaters, washing machines and clothes dryers.

For years, Palmetto Electric Cooperative members have had access to H2O Select, an electric water heater program that saves members millions of dollars each year in water heater rebates and incentives. By heating water when the demand for electricity is low and storing that thermal energy for later use, electric water heaters save members and the cooperative money.

Now, co-op members can save even more by enrolling in the Smart Thermostat program to receive a FREE smart thermostat with FREE standard installation. Smart thermostats are designed to ensure that your home is at a specific temperature when it

needs to be and eliminate unnecessary HVAC usage. Smart thermostats are more accurate at measuring the current indoor temperature and more efficient at raising or lowering it to your desired indoor temperature. They are wi-fi enabled and therefore, you can monitor and control them using a smartphone, tablet or computer – no matter where you are.

When you install an smart thermostat, you can: • CONTROL: Conveniently adjust your home’s temperature from anywhere, anytime. Operate it from your mobile device, computer or tablet.

TRACK: View monthly energy reports that show use. You can even compare your use to what others are using.

• SAVE: The thermostat adjusts when you’re not home. The thermostat also adjusts for a few degrees during peak periods. During peak control events, the thermostat’s temperature settings will be adjusted as needed, up to 4 degrees above or below your desired setting. You will be notified prior to an upcoming peak event and will have the opportunity to opt-out if desired.* By reducing your electricity use during peak times, you will be helping reduce costs for all Palmetto Electric members, and you will also be eligible for Smart Rewards bill credits.

Visit palmetto.coop to sign up. Contact Parrish Neville, Palmetto Electric Marketing Manager, at 843-608-0071 or Kristin Keller, Palmetto Electric Marketing Representative, at 843-6080075 for more information. *Complete terms and conditions can be found online at palmetto.coop.

attention as being one of the first private communities seen while driving into town.

However, it is not closed to the public. In fact, Berkeley is more than accommodable to guests and potential neighbors alike. At AR Homes, we help bridge the gap between “private” and “public” through our partnership as one of Berkeley Hall’s Premier Builders.

Nestled comfortably inside Berkeley Hall you will find the Granville model home. Open seven days a week, the Granville is a prime example of Berkeley Hall’s amazing attributes as a community. Quality design, expert craftsmanship, unparalleled service, and professional responsibility are exactly what AR Homes prides

THE MONCEAU MODEL themselves in possessing, and these characteristics are also found in the community.

For the past two years, the residents in Berkeley Hall have accepted AR Homes joyously into their community, and it has been such a pleasure to work arm-in-arm with them in building beautiful homes throughout the neighborhood.

As our previous model home, the Monceau, closes, we are delighted to have yet another model home to showcase this harmonizing bond.

But who are we? What does AR Homes have to offer that has made our relationship with Berkeley Hall so positive?

AR Homes is a family of 47 small custom builders in the Southeast. Doug Durrant

In Florida, Doug learned to build a more secure home during storms and brought this knowledge with him. He goes above and beyond local code to provide a safe, defended home to couple with your customized dream home.

Cooking in Style As the certified center of the modern home, kitchen trends have become a great index for home design. A kitchen plan that is functional, efficient and inviting is a proven asset to your investment while providing a useful space that your entire family will enjoy.

Designing a well-planned kitchen should be a priority as it should be

functional as well as beautiful. Once the footprint is established, the surface materials, light fixtures, paint colors and cabinets will vary by taste and season, but there are some kitchen elements that we believe are here to stay for a while. If you are building or remodeling in 2020, here are some design ideas to consider.

CLEAN AND SIMPLE Serving as both functional and aesthetically pleasing, kitchens will continue to be defined by simplicity with a little drama. By removing the clutter and adding dramatic lines and colors to cabinets topped with showpiece countertops, this room gains the kind of appeal that makes guests want to linger and enjoy. Homeowners are gravitating towards clever, concealed storage options that are neatly integrated into the total design. You can also expect to see integrated appliances.

Slim-lined hoods that turn on automatically, seamless induction cooktops that blend into counter spaces, bold colors like black and teal and appliances that don’t stick out everywhere are the new face of luxury.

BACKSPLASH FEATURE WALLS Colorful and geometric patterned tile and brick for kitchens has been in the design realm for a while, but recently the trend has grown–quite literally. Professionals are seeing attention-grabbing backsplash tile being used from countertop to ceiling to create a striking feature wall. Additionally, there are more requests for single slab backsplashes Charles Arriola and Rob Cavano

that look clean and striking.

Combined with floating shelves and range hoods, the look makes a pretty big statement in any size kitchen. For a few extra square feet of tile, it’s also a relatively costeffective way to go from average to stunning.

For a long time, range hoods were kept hidden blending seamlessly into kitchen cabinets, now they are becoming the center of attention as a design element in the kitchen.

Expect to see range hoods in a variety of materials, colors and styles. From shiny or dark matte metals to natural wood finishes, plaster and brightly painted wood, these hoods are designed to be anything but boring. Add a slab backsplash or tile configuration and you have a dreamy space to make your meals.

THE 5TH WALL Take advantage of the kitchen ceiling as a 5th wall by adding a bit of color, wallpaper, wood paneling or an architectural feature. It allows you to maintain neutrality but still have some fun in the kitchen. Finish the look with a statement light fix-

The Benefits of Motorized Shades and Blinds Home automation is here to stay, and there’s no better place to put it to use than with your shades and blinds. Automated blinds offer a level of comfort, ease and efficiency that traditional blinds lack. With motorized shades and blinds, it’s easy to achieve a warm, inviting atmosphere any time of the day. Here are some of the benefits of smart blinds to help you decide if they are right for your home.

SAFETY FIRST Regular window blinds require cables and strings to open and close. After long-term use, these cords often become a tangled mess and can pose a strangulation hazard to children and pets.

Motorized blinds don’t require exposed cords. Some can even connect to a smart home automation system to automatically open if the fire alarm is triggered allowing first responders to see inside the home.

CONVENIENCE Motorized blinds can be opened and closed with the touch of a button. A remote control or smartphone app allows the user to adjust shades as needed or to set up a schedule, so they adjust automatically throughout the day.

ENERGY SAVINGS Window coverings are a proven way to reduce solar gain and prevent heat loss. Connecting these coverings to a smart home hub allows them to work with your home’s HVAC system to adjust based on temperature readings and sunlight sensors. Essentially, your blinds will know when to close on a hot day and when to open on a sunny, cool day in order to help your HVAC achieve a comfortable temperature level inside your home. Motorized blinds can also add a significant insulation value to your windows. Traditional roller and honeycomb blinds offer a higher R-value than double glazed windows.

SECURITY One of the best benefits of any home automation system is the level of security it adds. By motorizing your blinds and setting schedules or controlling functions remotely, smart blinds give the appearance that someone is home, which can help deter would-be burglars from taking a look.

PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE, FLOORS AND ART How often do you remember to adjust the blinds before leaving your home so that your favorite painting doesn’t get damaged by sunlight? The joy of home automation is being able to set a program and forget about it.

Rugs, artwork and furniture can all be spared from the sun’s harsh rays without you having to be home to manually do the job.

Home automation will continue to get smarter. If you want to explore the ease and comfort it can provide, automated shades and blinds is a fairly simple and efficient way to get started.

Who says a time-saving kitchen remodeling solution can’t be of highest quality?

American Wood Reface proves you can have it all.

A Quality Kitchen Remodel That Won’t Strand You in Perpetual Construction Mode Homeowners who want to remodel their kitchens to high-quality standards are often quickly derailed by the complicated process and amount of time involved in planning and execution, as well as the exorbitant cost. Having your home disrupted and turned into an orange barrel zone for weeks or months is no fun, nor is eating meals out every night. And replacing high-end cabinets comes with severe sticker shock.

BEFORE

American Wood Resurface LCH 20.indd 1

Be not disheartened! There is a solution at hand that drastically shortens the timeline of a kitchen remodel, cutting the mess and disruption to as little as one week, with high-quality materials and finishes to rival the most opulent custom kitchen. What, pray, is this sorcery?

Let us introduce you to Solid Wood Cabinet Refacing. First, a quick primer on refacing. Refacing is a method of renewing faded or outdated cabinet boxes by covering all exposed surfaces with new material. Add to this concept premium solid wood components and you begin to see where we are headed.

Solid wood refacing is a craftsman technique that keeps existing cabinetry in place and transforms your kitchen into a showpiece without the hassle, mess and exorbitant cost of tearing out and replacing cabinets.

Please don’t confuse refacing with refinishing – the latter is merely a surface treatment. Solid wood refacing, on the other hand, essentially makes cabinets new again! Not only refacing cabinet box exteriors, but installing brand new custom made solid wood doors and drawer fronts, too.

Now, we realize that all refacing companies are not equal, so you must do your homework. Premium refacers use

only thick, premium solid wood facing (as opposed to thin, cheap veneers) and only the best refacers install craftsmanquality, custom-made doors and drawer fronts, concealed adjustable hinges, and new pull hardware. They also offer the most choices in woods, colors and finishes, along with many upgrades.

Among the top refacing companies serving Bluffton and Hilton Head is American Wood Reface. They pull off stellar kitchen transformations with their 1/4" Solid Wood Refacing System, using premium Amish-made components and high-quality solid wood. There are literally hundreds of combinations of styles, colors and finishes to choose from, in eight different woods.

American Wood Reface’s team of expert installers specialize in refacing, and have decades of carpentry experience. This allows them to offer extreme cabinetry modifications, such as altering cabinets for a new purpose, building additional cabinetry, extending cabinets to the ceiling, and installing accessibility-enhancing features such as handy roll-out trays and waste bins.

One of their most highly requested modifications addresses the problem of those horrid, difficult-to-access base cabinets – you know the ones – a tiny drawer on top and a cavernous space

3/30/20 10:04 PM

AMAZING KITCHeN.

below, where everything disappears into an abyss of chaos. American Wood Reface can transform these cabinets into full-extension drawer banks with organized, completely accessible storage.

Once the cabinetry modifications are completed, the entire kitchen is refaced, making for a beautiful, cohesive appearance and supreme functionality.

Of course, new countertops are a must, and American Wood Reface offers a dizzying array of options, including Cambria® quartz. New sinks, faucets and countertop lighting are popular add-ons.

One of the most appreciated aspects of dealing with American Wood Reface is how easy they make the process.

Starting with a convenient, free, in-home consultation, where you choose all your materials in the comfort of your home and receive on the spot a firm estimate so you know exactly what to expect.

Their polite, professional installers arrive on time and clean up after themselves.

All work and materials are backed by a robust Lifetime Warranty.

No wonder American Wood Reface has won the “Favorite Cabinet Company” poll in Hilton Head for the last three years in a row! n

A mericA’ s F inest s olid Wood r e FAc i ng & c ustom c Abinetry Superior Quality • Completed in leSS than a Week!

A superlative refacing job starts with quality materials. American Wood reface uses premium 1/4" solid hardwood facing and custom-crafted solid wood components to transform your kitchen in less than one week, saving you time, money and hassle!

components are built by our highly skilled amish craftsmen using time-honored techniques, such as mortise-andtenon, and dovetail joinery.

our 1/4" solid wood facing is far superior to thin laminates or veneers used by other refacers.

Today’s Reverse Mortgage Provided by Mark Brittman, Reverse Mortgage Specialist, Coastal States Bank It may surprise you to learn that reverse mortgages have been available since 1961. The formal name of this program is a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage or HECM. Individuals 62 years of age or older can use a reverse mortgage to access the equity in their current home or even purchase a new home without having ongoing mortgage payments. Reverse borrowers are only required to maintain the home and pay the taxes, insurance, and any homeowners association fees as they come due. There is no requirement to repay the loan until the borrower no longer occupies the home. Funds can be taken in a combination of ways.

Options include a lump sum at closing, a line of credit which can be accessed when need, or an annuity payment.

One of the most beneficial features of a reverse mortgage is that they are “non-recourse” - the homeowner does not have to pay back any balance if it is more than the value of the home.

HUD insures these loans and makes this feature possible. I am not aware of any other mortgage related product available today that can offer this feature.

In conclusion, reverse mortgages can be a perfect vehicle for seniors to protect against outliving their assets and can allow them to remain in their homes indefinitely. If you are seriously considering a reverse mortgage, I urge you to meet with a qualified mortgage professional who will explain all the fees and terms in detail so that you can make an informed decision.

Protect Sea Turtles and Preserve Your View Hilton Head Island has long had guidelines for lighting inside homes that have windows facing the beach. These guidelines, from May to October, state that the windows should not have light shining out toward the beach from 10pm - 6 am.

There are proposed changes to the current ordinances which date from 1990, which will include no light shining out from first and second story windows and any outdoor porch and swimming pool lights need to be changed to red, orange or amber. All windows and doors facing the beach will need to have tinting or window treatments allowing only 20% of the light to be transmitted toward the beach.

When sea turtle nests hatch , the emerging baby turtles go toward the light. In nature, that light is the moon shining on the ocean. When artificial light from homes nearby shines on the beach the baby turtles will go toward these lights (in the wrong direction) and often die from dehydration or exhaustion, or drown in pools, get hit by cars or taken by predators.

When choosing window treatments that conform to the guidelines set by the town there are a number of choices that can work. Roller Shades are a great choice and they “disappear” really well. By rolling up into a cassette, especially if you coordinate color to your window trim they are very unobtrusive.

Honeycomb shades are also a great option. They not only have a small profile when open, they also have great insulating properties so you can save on utilities, and conform to the new rules as well.

Draperies, with blackout lining, that draw back off the window when open are a beautiful alternative that also add a softening decorative feature to a room. They can be as subtle as the wall color or make a great decorative impact with the pattern and color.

Cost-Efficient Heating for your Pool Provided by Year Round Pool Many pool owners tell us that they really enjoy the experience of a warm pool, but the cost of heating a pool can be significant even with a highly efficient system like a Heat Pump Pool Heater (HPPH).

Here are six methods that will help. Each pool environment is different, and while the value of each method is universal, they are not all universally applicable to a particular pool.

1 | Solar heating is essentially free (there are some small increases in the cost to pump the water through the large solar panels, but it is minimal).

The downside of solar is that it rarely meets the needs for a full season of heating demand, or it fails to provide heat fast enough or when the sun isn’t shining. But when solar is available and you have the budget to purchase a solar system with a Heat Pump Pool Heater backup, you can have the best, most economical system available.

2 | If you have a Heat Pump Pool Heater (HPPH) system only, the time of day that you run your

HPPH is a system operation parameter you should address. HPPH’s get their heat from the air. So, logically, the best time to run a HPPH is when the air temperature is at its warmest. As long as your filtration is running at the warmest time of the day, your HPPH will operate at its optimum Coefficiency of Performance (COP). COP is the measure of energy output divided by energy input.

3 | And speaking of COP…the COP is the efficiency rating of the HPPH. As mentioned in item 2, this measure of efficiency changes as the air temperature changes. The unit is more efficient the warmer the air temperature. Another aspect of COP to consider the overall COP rating as applied to the individual model of HPPH you purchase. Not all HPPHs are created equal. If we do a comparison of HPPHs and assume all have the same heating capacity, or BTUh, you will find a variety of COP ratings available on the market.

The higher the COP rating, the more efficient the HPPH will be. The percentage difference between one COP rating and another will equate to the percentage savings available between the lower and higher rated COP heater. This means you should buy the highest COP-rated unit your budget allows while making sure the model you select has the capacity, or BTUh, to meet your heating demand. Your Pool Professional can help you with this decision process.

4 | Controlling evaporation. Heat loss on any pool, heated by any means, is primarily driven by evaporation from the surface of the pool. Upwards

of 75% of heat loss is through this method.

So controlling that evaporative loss is key to reducing heating cost. There are three types of blankets that can help control evaporation: Solid, Floating and Liquid. The Liquid blanket is easy to use, and is inexpensive, but also carries the lowest level of effectiveness.

5 | Wind at the surface of the pool creates ripples or small waves on the surface of the pool ultimately accelerating evaporation. So, creating a pool environment that is shielded from wind will greatly help reduce heating cost.

6 | The last method is the pool temperature set point. The warmer you heat your pool water, the more it will cost to keep it warm. Each degree rise in temperature can equate to an approximate 1518% increase in operation cost. So, while an 88°F pool is nice and toasty warm, it will cost a lot more to maintain than a pool that is held at 85°F. There is nothing better than a warm pool.

These are some tried and true ways to help keep that cost to a minimum.

Invest in wellness with a Hot Tub Provided by Year Round Pool A high-quality hot tub can improve your life in ways you may not have considered before. Hot tubs bring families closer together while helping to connect with the world around us. Incorporating hot tub usage into your daily routine can also help improve your general well-being. Regular spa use might also reduce stress, ease pain, improve the quality of your sleep, and increase flexibility.

IMPROVED RANGE OF MOTION As we age, we lose our range of motion. Through regular usage, your hot tub can help you restore lost flexibility and slow the natural stiffening that comes with age. The warm water of a spa creates hydrostatic pressure—the pressure caused by the weight of fluids—on the body. This reduces joint inflammation, which in turn aids mobility.

RELIEF FROM ARTHRITIS SYMPTOMS Spending time in your hot tub may provide temporary relief from arthritic joint pain. In a controlled study examining the effects of spa therapy on patients with severe osteoarthritis, researchers found significant reduction in pain

after just two weeks. In fact, patients undergoing spa therapy experienced less pain than those undergoing drug therapy at the same time.

Likewise, a study of patients with rheumatoid arthritis demonstrated that hydrotherapy reduced pain, tension, and joint tenderness.

RELIEF FROM FIBROMYALGIA SYPTOMS Fibromyalgia is a disorder involving chronic pain and fatigue throughout the body, often resulting in disturbed sleep and an impaired ability to concentrate. It can cause disruptions at work and at home. A study of the effects of hydrotherapy on fibromyalgia patients showed marked benefits.

Following a course of hydrotherapy treatment, patients reported improvements in physical functionality, sleep quality, and the ability to do their jobs, accompanied by a reduction in pain intensity, fatigue, stiffness, anxiety, and depression.

RELIEF FROM LOWER BACK PAIN According to one estimate, 80% of all Americans will suffer from lower back pain at some point. It can make performing everyday activities a difficult and painful challenge. In multiple studies, people living with chronic back pain who underwent hydrotherapy treatment, either on its own or in combination with other treatments, saw a reduction in their symptoms. While these studies do indicate the positive effects of hydrotherapy, they do not replace the advice of a doctor.

DECREASED ANXIETY AND STRESS Time spent in a hot tub encourages stress-free

relaxation. Before you leave for work in the morning, soaking in your spa for fifteen or twenty minutes can help you begin your day feeling rested and focused. At night, it can help you unwind and leave the stresses of the day behind you. Controlled studies have shown that the use of hydrotherapy can lead to an improved psychological and emotional state.

BETTER SLEEP Lack of sleep can increase feelings of stress and anxiety reducing your ability to be productive.

This can become a vicious cycle, as these same negative feelings can cause or aggravate many sleep disorders. Using your hot tub on a regular basis can break that cycle and help you get to sleep.

EASES SORE MUSCLES If you suffer from sore or aching muscles, a hot tub can help. The hot water and massage jets release tension and knead the toxins from your muscle fibers. Buoyancy takes the pressure off your legs, feet and back, helping you work out the knots.

Regular soaks in your spa can improve your health and overall well-being. In order to fully experience these benefits, it’s important to choose the right hot tub. A hot tub that doesn’t work properly, requires constant repairs, or uses energy inefficiently may add more stress to your life than it reduces. It’s best to invest in a quality, worry-free hot tub that you can enjoy for years to come.

Protect Your Investment Most people agree, it is very important to minimize costs wherever possible. Insurance is one of your most controllable expenses. By implementing the ideas of Risk Management in addition to traditional insurance, we can help you maximize needed insurance protection while minimizing your insurance costs.

Because everyone’s needs are not the same, it is best to consult your agent to help assess your needs and find the insurance policy that is right for you, but here are a few things you should know about Homeowners insurance: • Homeowners insurance is a package policy. This means that it covers both damage to your property and your liability or legal responsibility for any injuries and property damage you or members of your family cause to other people. This includes damage caused by household pets.

• Homeowners insurance provides financial protection against disasters. A standard policy insures the home itself and the things you keep in it.

• Damage caused by most disasters is covered but there are exceptions. One of those exceptions is damage caused by flood. You must buy a separate policy for flood.

An Old World look with modern technology

Provided by Savannah Surfaces Southern architecture is steeped in tradition. Features like wide porches, tall windows and high ceilings are remnants of a time when air circulation was key to staying cool, but these elements can still

Tip_Hardscape (SavHardscape).indd 1

be found in modern designs. In the same way, building materials have transcended time. Plank siding, Savannah brick, wood floors and tabby surfaces are traditional materials that can still be found in many modern coastal homes.

Traditional tabby, also known as “coastal concrete,” is a mix of lime, sand and water and is primarily found in communities along the Southern Atlantic coast. Commonly used during colonial days because of its sturdiness and resilience to humidity, the lime portion of the recipe was often acquired by burning and crushing oyster shells. This is why tabby contains the shell pieces that give it a unique appearance.

In a nod to this classic Southern material, Savannah Surfaces now offers a durable paver that showcases the beauty of tabby. Old World Tabby combines natural shell products with modern technology to create a beautiful, unique paving stone. It is offered in both a hand-made concrete version and a porcelain version. Available in three coastal colors, these pavers are an ideal surface solution for pool decks, patios, porches, and architectural

elements. Old World Tabby is an exclusive, one of a kind paver.

The pavers are available in 3/4” for mortar set sand set, gravel set or grass set applications. The concrete version is available in 1-1/4” and 2” with 2” coping.

The big benefits of propane The environment is an important topic that has taken center stage in communities on a global level. As we struggle to find better ways to care for the planet, fuel sources have come under scrutiny for ways to limit its footprint on the earth.

One solution is to replace conventional fuels with alternative, cleaner fuels that also reduce our dependency on imports. Propane is rapidly establishing itself as an important alternative fuel with environmental benefits and a practical cost advantage over gasoline, diesel and other fuels.

Propane is an approved, alternative clean fuel listed in the 1990 Clean Air Act. It burns cleaner than any other fossil fuel. Propane does not contaminate groundwater or soil, and it has a low carbon content, producing minimal emissions. When propane is derived as a by-product of natural

gas production, it reduces petroleum use between 98 and 99 percent. If you’re interested in maintaining an environmentally friendly home, propane is a powerful solution.

Here are some more reasons to enjoy propane in your home: PROPANE IS A SAFE ENERGY PICK Propane has a remarkable safety record.

Home tanks are usually buried well beyond the natural gas main and are 20 times more puncture resistant than those used for other fuels. An odorant is added to propane so you can easily tell if there does happen to be a leak, and a CO detector can easily alert you if your appliances have produced high levels of carbon monoxide.

MONEY SAVER Propane is an affordable alternative to electric appliances. Heating your water will propane rather than electricity will

save you 30 percent a year. A propane clothes dryer is 50 percent more efficient than its electric counterpart. A tankless propane water heater can have an efficiency level as high as 94 percent.

VERSATILITY Grills have long been a staple of backyards across the country, and there may be nothing better than grilling in the great outdoors with the same temperature control and easy on-off capabilities found indoors on your gas range. While most people associate propane with grilling year round, it is also useful for home heating and powering many household appliances.

Fireplaces, water heaters, clothes dryers, ranges, ovens and patio heaters can all run off propane.
