How to care for your house like you’re selling it

BY STEVE WYDLER, HANS WYDLER WASHINGTON POST

H

ome sellers need to understand that buyers today have access to more information and are more educated and savvy than ever before.

As a result, today’s buyers tend to be more cautious. One small issue that they see with the condition of the home could raise red flags about potential major problems lurking behind the walls.

They may second-guess their interest in the home, asking themselves: What is my assurance this won’t reoccur in the future? Is this issue indicative that the home has more than its fair share of problems? How much money and aggravation might this issue cause me down the road?

Ultimately, they may talk themselves out of purchasing the home.

It’s best to take extra special care of your home long before you even consider putting it on the market. Here’s how to see your home with a buyer’s eye so you can avoid problems that may scuttle a sale in the future: Repairs: When you are addressing a home repair issue as a homeowner, anticipate questions in the future and try to resolve the issue in a manner that would give comfort to a prospective buyer. For example, if you are fixing a small crack in your foundation, consult the original builder to see if you can find out what happened and why (you might even find out that it is covered by the builder’s warranty). When you have the repair corrected, make sure to have the contractor doing the work prepare a detailed (and legible) invoice that explains the issue and the work done to correct it.

The “gold standard” is to get a transferable warranty that you can give to the next owner.

Maintenance: Buyers walking through a home are trying to determine (both consciously and unconsciously) if the property has been well-maintained. Even if the buyer doesn’t “catch” a potential issue, their home inspector almost certainly will. One thing we’ve found over the years is that buyers tend to “horribilize” issues (we borrowed this term from a fellow agent). In other words, the buyer will imagine the worst-case scenario. For example, let’s say the HVAC filter hasn’t been changed in a while and is dirty. From the seller’s perspective, the cost to replace the filter is only a few dollars. Buyers, however, will think the

clogged filter has strained the HVAC system, which will shorten its life, and wonder what other routine maintenance issues have been neglected in the home.

We can’t list all the maintenance issues here but suffice it to say regularly and proactively maintaining your home will pay dividends when you decide to sell.

Boundaries: In preparing to list a home for sale, one of the things we ask from our seller clients (townhomes, rowhouses and single-family detached) is a copy of the plat (AKA survey). This is a document that they likely received at the time they purchased the property and is with their original closing papers. Anytime you or your neighbor put in a fence, driveway or other landscaping/hardscaping feature, make sure it is on the correct property. If there is an encroachment (even a little bit), you will want to consult an attorney. There is often a simple legal solution at the time the encroachment occurs (e.g., recording an easement, sending a simple “permission” letter, etc).

Encroachment issues are potentially big deals at settlement causing delays and costs, and in some cases, the deal to fall apart.

Permits: Whether a particular job needs a permit seems to have different

interpretations. It’s best to err on the side of caution and get a permit. Certainly, if there is a significant repair or if you are going to advertise something as a feature of your home, the work should have been permitted. Cutting a corner to avoid permitting might sound like an attractive way to save money today, but it will likely cost you more in the long run.

Water: Water issues result in some of the most costly home-inspection items we see. Water issues can result in a whole host of problems, including foundation issues, mold and roof problems. The good news is that water issues can be avoided relatively inexpensively if you are vigilant and proactive. Keep your gutters clean and make sure your downspouts empty away from your foundation. Make sure the ground around the perimeter of your home slopes away from the foundation. When a home is constructed, the builder will dig out a big hole, pour a foundation and then fill in the empty surrounding space with fill dirt, hopefully with a proper slope away from the foundation. Because that soil is loose, it tends to settle over time creating a negative slope toward the foundation.

Since this happens gradually over years, most homeowners don’t notice the prob-

lem until they discover they have a water problem in their basement.

Etc.: Make sure your caulking and roof flashing are in good shape. Make sure your air conditioning condensate drain lines are clean and you have a backup system that alerts you when they are activated. Make sure your dryer vent is clean and blows the hot moist air outside and not into your attic or between walls. Make sure all tree limbs, bushes and other foliage are not touching the house (at least a foot clearance is recommended).

Paper work: As you acquire paperwork related to your home, ask yourself: “Is this something a future owner might want/need?” Whether it be a plat, manual, architectural drawing, irrigation system map, copies of contractor invoices and permits -- it’s best to keep it. For tax purposes, you’ll want to keep track of your capital improvements to the property.

Steps to take before an appraiser’s visit H M omeowners unfamiliar with the appraisal process might not know if there is anything they can do to make the process go more smoothly. While certain variables involved in the appraisal process, such as location of the home and the value of surrounding homes, are beyond homeowners’ control, the Appraisal Institute recommends homeowners take the following steps before an appraiser visits their home.

• Clean the house. A dirty home that is full of clutter will not make the best impression on appraisers. Dirty homes may be vulnerable to insect infestations that can lead to structural problems with the home. While a dirty home is not necessarily an indicator of infestations or a reflection of a home’s value, a clean home will create a stronger first impression with the appraiser.

• Make any necessary repairs ahead of the appointment. Homeowners who have been putting off repairs should make them before the appraiser arrives. Homes with repairs that still need to be made will likely be

valued less than similar homes with no such repair issues. Though repairs can be costly, investing in home repairs will likely increase both the appraisal and resale value of the home.

• Obtain all necessary documents before the appraiser arrives. Homeowners who have certain documentation at the ready can speed up the appraisal process. Such documentation may include a survey of the house and property; a deed or title report; a recent tax bill; if applicable, a list of items to be sold with the house; purchase history of the home; and the original plans and specifications of the home.

• Inform the appraiser about recent improvements. Homeowners can inform appraisers about any recent improvements to the home and the cost of those improvements. The value of home improvements with regard to a home’s appraisal value vary depending on a host of variables, but having such information at the ready can help appraisers make the most informed appraisal possible.

any homeowners have lofty goals for their homes. Such plans may include extensive renovations or even additions. While many of these projects create beautiful changes in a home, it’s important to consider the impact that renovations can have on property value before beginning a project. Many home improvement projects do not add as much value as homeowners may think they do. In fact, some homeowners “overbuild” for their neighborhoods. This means the amount of money invested in improvements can likely never be recuperated because the house value simply exceeds those around by too much money. To avoid overbuilding, homeowners can ask themselves several questions before beginning a renovation project.

• Will my house be the largest house in the neighborhood? Larger homes tend to have a lower price per square foot, so you may not want to improve to this extent.

• Will the house blend with others in the area? If your house will stick out like a sore thumb, it will detract from its own value and could impact the value of other homes in the area.

• Have I examined the cost vs. value of the project? Many home improvement resources analyze the cost of a project versus the overall value of that project with regard to property value. For example, a $100,000 basement remodel may not add $100,000 to the value of the home in the event you choose to sell down the line. It’s important to know which projects provide the best return on investment.

Things to consider before downsizing

O

nce their kids have left the nest, many men and women over 50 begin to consider downsizing their homes. Downsizing to a smaller home can be beneficial for a variety of reasons, including less home to clean and maintain, more affordable utility bills and lower property taxes. But the decision to downsize is rarely black and white, and men and women often struggle with that decision.

Perhaps the most difficult part of the decision of whether or not to downsize to a smaller home concerns the sentimental attachment many homeowners, especially those with children, have to their homes. The home might be too big for your current needs, but it also was the same place where your son took his first steps and where your daughter lost her first tooth. Saying goodbye to a place that was home to so many memories isn’t easy. But there’s more than just sentimental value to consider when deciding whether or not to downsize your home after the kids have grown up and moved out.

Personal finances

Your financial situation merits significant consideration when deciding if the time is right to downsize your home. If your retirement nest egg is not as substantial as you would like it to be, then it would seem as though downsizing to a smaller, more affordable home is a great opportunity for you to start catching up on your retirement savings. But that’s only true if your new home won’t incur any additional expenses that are already taken care of in your current home. For example, your current home may be fully furnished, while a new, smaller home may require you to buy all new furniture because your existing items simply won’t fit. The cost of such furnishings can be considerable.

If you plan to move into a condominium, you can expect to pay monthly homeowners association fees, and such fees are often substantial. So while the condo itself might be smaller, the additional expenses associated with the property may end up making the smaller home more expensive and prevent you from saving more money for retirement.

Real estate market

There are seller’s markets and there are buyer’s markets, and ideally you would like to sell your home in a seller’s market. But keep in mind that this might be the same market in which you hope to buy a new home. The nature of the real estate market depends on a host of factors, including geography. If the city or town where you currently live is in the midst of a seller’s market and you are planning on moving to a location where buyers have the upper hand, then now might be a great time to move. But if you currently live in a buyer’s market and hope to move to a seller’s market, then you may end up paying a steep price, even when downsizing to a smaller home. Things may even themselves out if you want to downsize to a smaller home within your current community, but do your homework nonetheless. The advantage men and women considering downsizing have is that they are rarely in a rush to move out of their current home and into their next one. This gives them ample time to make the real estate market work for them.

Space

How much space do you really need?

Once the kids have moved out, couples may feel like all of that extra space is going to waste. But that can be a knee-jerk reaction, and upon a more thorough examination of the space and your needs you may just find that you can put all of that extra square footage to good use after all. If you have always wanted your own art studio, then now might be the perfect time to make that a reality. Always wanted a room devoted to home theater? Get to work on converting your basement from an all-purpose game room to your own private movie theater. If, after considering the space in your home, you find that the extra square footage really is just upkeep you aren’t especially interested in doing, then you would no doubt like a cozier home that’s less of a responsibility to maintain.

Downsizing a home is something many men and women over 50 consider after their children have moved out. Such a decision is rarely easy, so homeowners should take as much time as they need before making a final decision to move or stay put.

Classic Country Charm

BY KRISTI MCCABE

T

here’s something alluring about an older home and it’s rare to discover one that is more than a century old but looks brand new. The home of Cory and Joy Abel, located just minutes from the new hospital at 6076 Highway 144, is just this kind of place, and is oozing with character, charm, and a whole lot of history.

“This house was built in 1881,” explained Cory Abel. “It still has a lot of the original features, but also a lot of updates. We put a new roof on in 2015, and we added foam insulation in the walls and cellar. Some of the rooms have the original plaster medallions around the light fixtures, which are just beautiful. I love the crown molding, large baseboards and the handmade staircase. It’s a good blend of old and new.”

This four-bedroom, two-and-ahalf-bathroom home is comprised of over 4,000 square feet of living space, including two dining rooms and a great room with a wood-burning stove. Beautiful pine hardwood floors are found throughout, as well as ceramic tile.

The front of the home is stately and welcoming, with its circular drive, twostory pillars, and large front porch.

The kitchen is amazingly unique and surprising, with a new twist on farmhouse style. The walls are wood paneled and tinted a bright robin’s-egg blue. The tiled flooring, oak cabinetry, two-tier island, and tile backsplash combine to create a functional appeal that balances the room’s whimsical walls. On the opposite side of the kitchen’s back wall is a brick fireplace that adorns one of the home’s dining areas.

“This is a very interesting room,”

Cory remarked. “The entire floor All bedrooms are located on the lifts up to reveal a cellar. We keep our second floor, including the master homemade canned goods from our suite. The master bedroom has hardgarden down there. It runs the whole wood flooring, multiple windows, and a walk-in closet that is the size of a length of the room.” small bedroom.

The property itself is a real treasure, encompassing a full 22 acres of land. This includes a field planted with corn, ten acres of wooded land that is prime hunting ground, a barn, a detached two-car garage, and a spacious back porch that is wired for a hot tub.

“We raise a large organic garden out here,” Cor y said. “We also grow hay and allow someone to cut it for free for their horses. We raise chickens, too.”

For the homeowner in search of countr y living and a house full of charm, this is a perfect fit.

“I love the land out here,” Cor y reflected. “There is a lake in front of the house and we watch flocks of geese fly in and out all the time. The sunsets are just beautiful. It’s the best of both worlds; countr y living but we are still close to town. It’s a wonderful place to call home.”

How homeowners can reduce monthly expenses

S

aving money is a priority for many people. But reducing monthly expenses is typically a bigger concern for homeowners, especially new homeowners adjusting to life with a mortgage, higher energy bills than they likely had while renting and other costs associated with owning their own homes.

Home ownership is a dream for many people, but the realization of just how expensive owning a home can be is often eye-opening once you get the keys and move in. Once the initial sticker shock has worn off, homeowners should know that the cost of home ownership need not be so steep. In fact, there are several ways homeowners can cut costs without drastically changing their lifestyle.

• Combine your insurance coverages.

Many lenders mandate that borrowers carry homeowners insurance for their homes. The cost of coverage varies from company to company, and one of the ways homeowners can reduce the cost of their homeowners insurance is to bundle their homeowners coverage with their auto insurance. Some companies provide discounted premiums as high as 15 percent for policy holders who combine

their homeowners and auto insurance coverage. Speak with your current provider to determine if combining your coverage could save you money. If the savings are not significant, shop around for an insurance company that can offer you the lower price you desire. Just be sure the company is accessible and reputable.

• Refinance your mortgage. Refinancing your mortgage is another great way homeowners can save a substantial amount of money. Even if you only recently purchased your home, your lender might be willing to refinance your mortgage with a lower interest rate.

interest rate by 2 percent can save you a substantial amount of money on your monthly mortgage payment, which can add up to considerable savings on the total interest you will pay over the life of the loan. If you think your interest rate is a tad too high, consult your lender and discuss refinancing at a lower rate.

• Bundle your services. More and more consumers have decided to bundle their Internet, phone and television packages. Consumer Reports found that bundling just two of those services instead of buying them from separate providers can save consumers between 40 to 60 percent depending on where they live.

Rates for bundling packages often come with an expiration date, but a Consumer Reports survey found that even those packages come with some wiggle room.

In their 2011 Annual Telecom Survey, Consumer Reports found that one-third of survey participants attempted to negotiate a lower rate for their bundled services, and 90 percent of those efforts were successful. When negotiating, discuss lower prices for bundling as well as extending the package beyond the current expiration date.
