07-WinterTreeTrimming.qxp_Layout 1 1/22/16 2:04 PM Page 1

Winter tree trimming:

Why the season of white is a great time to think green Is your winter tree maintenance limited to trimming the Christmas tree? If so, you're missing out on one of the season's most important home projects. Many homeowners pay little attention to their trees and bushes once colder weather arrives, but seasonal maintenance done during these months can be incredibly beneficial, not only for the plant but for you as well.

So grab your tools and your gloves because it's time to get started on your winter tree pruning.

Why is winter tree pruning important?

Think of winter tree pruning as a head start.

Pruning trees and shrubs during the dormant cycle ensures they will have a full growing season when spring arrives. In addition to the longer growing season, winter is also a good time to prune because colder temperatures reduce the risk of disease or pests attacking the plant.

Finally, pruning your trees during winter is also an easy way to protect your home from dying or diseased branches that may pose a falling risk. This is especially true in regions where heavy snowfall is common.

What trees or shrubs should you prune during the winter?

There are several species of trees or shrubs that can be pruned during the winter months, but you can categorize them into three easyto-remember groups:

* Hardwood trees. Pruning hardwood trees in the winter is easy thanks to their lack of foliage. Branches should be cut just above the branch collar - the space where the limb and the tree come together. This area of the tree is rich in anti-microbial chemicals to help the tree heal from the pruning without suffering decay.

Clippers can be used to trim smaller branches, but for larger sections or dying plants, use the Husqvarna 450 chainsaw. This all-around powerful saw features the X-Torq engine for lower fuel consumption and emission levels without a drop-off in power.

Its auto return stop switch makes it easier to handle, perfect for those spots where you need to make that precise cut.

* Fruit trees. Similar to their hardwood cousin, winter is also a great time to prune fruit trees. Each species of fruit tree has special considerations you must take into account, however, so research your species before pruning. Once you're finished, your efforts will be rewarded in the spring with larger, more delicious fruit. * Shrubs and/or trees that flower. Want the best blooms next summer? Prune any tree or shrub that flowers after May 15, late in the winter. To handle those projects efficiently, use the Husqvarna 136LiHD45 hedge trimmer. This trimmer features advanced battery technology for optimal power output, and their one-touch keypad makes it easy to get the job done right without excess battery loss.

When do you start pruning?

Branches that pose a falling risk should be handled immediately, but if you want to maximize the spring growing season, late winter is the time to prune. Start your project with the right tools and you'll support fuller, healthier plant growth during the spring, giving you another great reason to say goodbye to winter.

14-DIY editorial.qxp_Layout 1 1/22/16 1:52 PM Page 1

Whether inspired by countless cable shows or the desire to have the perfect kitchen, more Americans are doing their own home improvement projects. Laying hardwood floors,

installing plumbing and replacing windows has become an-

other DIY task like changing your oil.

Consider these following tips in determining how to tackle your next job.

• Assess the job

• Define what you want to accomplish. Determine your timetable, budget and the project scale and scope. Match your tools from there.

• Research the project and tools

• Many people turn to professionals for jobs they could do themselves because they don't know what tools they need.

To avoid the high cost of hiring a professional, research tool

reviews, equipment magazines and even retailer websites like Northern Tool + Equipment to help guide you with your tool selection.

3 Tips for Breaking the DIY Barrier

14 HOMES of El Paso / February 2016

• One's skill level also plays a factor when it comes time to choose a tool. A veteran DIYer might not need some tools someone performing a project for the first time might. And

to fit these needs, purchasing specialized tools like the Ironton Rotary Hammer Drill allows you to do a specific task -

like drilling through concrete - while avoiding the cost of hir-

ing a contractor.

• Consider ROI

• Look in depth at the tool you need to buy and at the different brands on the market that fit for your budget. Private label brands often offer value. And instead of bouncing from one hardware store to the next, utilize product comparison tools online to compare and contrast product life, value, ca-

pabilities and quality to determine the best ROI.

While DIY projects often save money, they also provide an enhanced pride in ownership associated with seeing your handiwork. With the right tools, you can tackle any home improvement project. Ultimately it's the person who makes the tool, not vice versa. So grab your tool belt, slide on your work gloves and get it done.

24-25_Home Improvements.qxp_Layout 1 1/22/16 1:29 PM Page 1

5 Smart Upgrades for the Most-Used Rooms in Your House Kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms are typically the rooms in any home that get the most use, which could also be why homeowners, when surveyed, consistently cite those rooms as the ones they most want to renovate. It makes perfect sense to upgrade the rooms where you spend the most time, but in hightraffic areas, you can't afford to make changes just for the sake of cosmetics. You want improvements that can enhance your enjoyment of a room and its functionality.

Here are five smart improvements to make in the rooms users of Ranker.com voted as the most popular ones in their homes: kitchens, 24 HOMES of El Paso / February 2016

living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms and game rooms.

1. Add natural light Most rooms in the home look better and are more functional in natural light, and more daylight can help reduce the need for artificial light. What's more, there's no arguing the positive mental and physical health effects of natural light. Daylight stimulates the body to produce Vitamin D and boosts brain levels of serotonin, which is thought to be associated with positive moods.

Adding skylights is a practical, cost-effective and attractive way to bring more natural light

into virtually any room. Remote-controlled, solar-powered fresh-air skylights from Velux America provide not just natural light, but passive ventilation, a real plus in kitchens and baths. Adding solar powered blinds, in designer colors and patterns, increases energy efficiency while giving you total control over the amount of sunlight entering a room through the skylight.

In kitchens, Energy Star-qualified fresh air skylights increase natural light and ventilation without requiring any loss of wall space you could better use for cabinetry. In bathrooms, they provide the perfect combination of privacy

24-25_Home Improvements.qxp_Layout 1 1/22/16 1:29 PM Page 2

Skylights provide not only natural light and fresh air in the bath but provide privacy as well. Enjoy natural light and passive ventilation even without vertical windows in the space. Solar powered fresh air skylights and blinds, along with installation costs, are eligible for a 30 percent federal tax credit.

and healthful natural light and ventilation.

If you already have older glass or plastic bubble skylights, you can upgrade to the latest solar powered models, plus solar blinds, and receive a 30 percent federal tax credit on the products as well as installation costs. You can even bring more natural light into rooms or areas without direct roof access, like halfbaths, closets and hallways, with Sun Tunnel tubular skylights. Visit www.whyskylights.com to learn more.

2. Add organization/storage Clutter and chaos not only make a room function less efficiently, it can impact your mood as well. Adding organization and storage to rooms where clutter typically collects - such as bedrooms, living rooms and game rooms is an easy, cost-effective way to improve the function of the room and how you feel about spending time in it.

In bedrooms, maximize closet space by installing organization units. A variety of manufacturers offer ready-made units you can install

yourself. Or, for a bit more investment, you can have a professional closet organizer custommake a unit to fit your space and needs. In living rooms and game rooms, built-in shelving and cabinetry is a functional and beautiful way to improve organization.

3. Improve ventilation Air flow is critical to the health of your home and everyone who lives in it. Ventilation in kitchens and bathrooms carries away excess moisture that can cause mold and mildew, and creates a fresher, more healthful environment by exhausting stale indoor air.

Bathrooms should be equipped with exhaust fans, and kitchen hoods should vent to the exterior of your home whenever possible.

You can further improve ventilation by installing Energy Star-qualified, solar-powered fresh-air skylights, like those made by Velux.

Because these skylights open, they provide passive ventilation to allow stale indoor air to escape and admit fresh air. A sensor operates a motor to close the skylights automatically in case of rain.

4. Replace older, inefficient fixtures and appliances Fixtures and appliances are key elements of

kitchens and bathrooms. Older ones not only look dated and shabby, they can cost you money because they use more electricity and water than newer, more efficient models.

Replacing old faucets, shower heads, dishwashers and washing machines with newer models that use less water can reduce your water bill and give kitchens and bathrooms a whole new look. Energy Star-qualified appliances such as stoves, clothes dryers, refrigerators and washers also use less electricity than older appliances, so you can also lower your energy bills.

5. Freshen the foundations Every room benefits from a good foundation, and that doesn't just mean sturdy flooring.

Wall color, flooring materials and trim are fundamental elements in any room. Simply repainting walls and woodwork can completely change the way any room looks. Or, if you like the colors you have, a fresh coat in the same color will make the room look brighter and newer. Replacing worn carpeting or dated tiles, or refinishing a hardwood floor are also great ways to improve the foundations of any room.

The Quick Guide to Home Financing

28 HOMES of El Paso / February 2016

28-29_Financing.qxp_Layout 1 1/22/16 1:11 PM Page 2

It's an all too familiar monthly event: you write out a rent check and wait for the funds to disappear from your bank account. But what if instead of making endless payments on something you don't own, you could own a home of your own? When you finance a home purchase with a mortgage, you build

equity and increase your percentage of home ownership with each payment made.

"Homeownership may sound like a big step, but it's not as out of reach as you might think," says Eric Hamilton, President of Vanderbilt Mortgage and Finance.

Vanderbilt Mortgage offers these tips to home financing to help you realize a place of your very own: Before you even begin to look at homes, you should know what you can afford. Consider your debt-to-income ratio which is your monthly income compared to your total monthly bills.

After figuring your ratio you will have a better idea as to what you can afford for a mortgage payment. To determine what your monthly mortgage payment might be, use an online mortgage calculator.

Assess your financial situation.

Know ahead of time what information and documents you'll need to complete a home loan application to help make the application experience as easy as possible. Documents needed may include: proof of income, employment information from the past two years, state-issued identification, proof of residency, and your social security card. Brush up on home loan terms so you can be knowledgeable throughout the process.

Financing a home begins with budgeting to ensure you have an appropriate down payment. Be sure to set a realistic goal and use the idea of your future home as an incentive to stick to it.

You can set up a savings plan, evaluate your current spending, and consider earning extra income to help reach your savings goal. Don't forget to celebrate your achievements along the way toward reaching your goal!

After you have moved into your dream home, be sure to make your mortgage payments in full and on time. If you can, plan an optional early mortgage payoff by making additional payments toward your principal balance each month.

Budget and save.

There are a number of ways you can build your credit, ranging from opening a checking or savings account to paying all of your bills on time. Getting a secured credit card can also help to build your credit. Be sure to monitor how often you use the credit card and how much you spend so as not to create revolving credit debt. Try to minimize your outstanding debt and keep existing debts in check.

Maintain your credit.

Apply for a loan.

Stay on track with your payments

The financial responsibility of owning a home is just the beginning. You worked hard to finally get to this point, so why not keep your home in top shape? Create a home maintenance checklist and make a point to regularly go through it. Keep track of routine items like checking HVAC filters, cleaning the sink disposal and cleaning out the gutters.

Care for your home.

Follow this guide to fulfill your dream of owning a home.
