Take advantage of low mortgage rates BY STATEPOINT
I
f you’re in the market to buy a home, today historically low average mor tgage rates are something to celebrate. Mor tgage rates play a significant role in how much home you can af ford -- and when rates are low, a home that was once unaffordable may now be within reach. Mortgage rates change frequently, and over the last 45 years they have ranged from a high of 18.63 percent in 1981, to a low of 3.31 percent in 2012. Experts say today figures are not anything to take for granted. While it’s not likely that the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate will return to its all-time record low, today average rates are still very low compared to almost any year since 1971 -- all to a buyer advantage says Sean Becketti, chief economist, Freddie Mac. At an average of 3.58 percent as of April 2016, today rates are not to be missed for those ready to make
the major investment of a home purchase, says Becketti. Small changes in mortgage rates can have a significant impact on monthly payments. For example, a $200,000 loan financed at 8.86 percent in the 1970s translated to an approximate monthly payment of $1,589. In the 2000s, the average rate of 6.29 percent meant an approximate payment of $1,237. Today, that same monthly payment would only be $908. Experts say for this reason, now is a great time to buy. Beyond mortgage rates, there are other important aspects to understand before buying a home, such as getting a firm handle on your finances, knowing your credit score, and understanding your down payment options. For more information and tools on buying a home and homeownership, visit myhome.freddiemac.com. To make your dream of homeownership a reality, consider getting serious about your search. Locking in a great fixed mor tgage rate can save you money for years to come.

Prepare your home for climate change BY STATEPOINT MEDIA
C
limate change may have unintended consequences for your home. Cer tain natural disasters ar e becoming a mor e regular occur rence; and shifts in weather patter ns could result in increased energy use. While you can singlehandedly stop global climate change, you can do your part to improve energy efficiency at home and prepare for natural disaster.
Natural Disaster Tips
Remove unnecessar y debris. Dispose of branches, dead trees or anything around the house that can be hazardous in high winds. Board windows. Keep these supplies on hand. Immediately following a disaster, it is smar t to turn of f all your utilities. Gas leaks and electrical fires are easily avoided if the power is
shut off. Have a home inspector or someone check the foundation of your home if you live in an area prone to earthquakes. Have an emer gency plan. An emergency kit should contain a three day supply of bottled water, flashlight, first aid supplies, spare keys, cash, a change of clothing, sleeping bag and copies of important documents, as well as a form of ID. Keep gutters clean so they can do their job of directing rainwater away from your home’s foundation and basement. Raise electrical components such as sockets, wiring and circuits above anticipated flood levels to prevent damage to your electrical system and avoid potential short circuit fires. The process of recover y from proper ty damage can be complex. Consider streamlining the hassle by hiring one contractor who specializes in disaster recover y. For exam-

Energy Tips
Your ther mostat accounts for almost half of a home’s energy bill. A programmable thermostat can help optimize heating and cooling. Change air filters regularly. Air seal and insulate your home. Reduce air leaks and stop drafts by using sealant, weather stripping, and insulation. Check ductwork to ensure proper sealing. Have heating and cooling equipment maintained annually by a licensed contractor.
Home Inspection
As the climate changes, more
homes are experiencing negative wear and tear. This hastens the need for a home inspection at least ever y five to 10 years. Home inspections are not just for people buying and selling homes,” says Dan Steward, president of Pillar To Post Home Inspectors, a franchised company. Periodic inspections ensure ever ything is operating ef ficiently and there are no major structural weaknesses. A home inspection by Pillar To Post Home Inspectors, for example, can save homeowners up to 20 percent on heating and cooling costs and significantly enhance homes’ comfor t with comprehensive sealing and insulating measures. More information can be found at www.pillartopost.com. The effects of climate change are a reality homeowners will increasingly face in the coming years. Take steps to prepare your home and family.

Outdoor entertainment made easy BY FAMILY FEATURES
T
he arrival of milder temperatures means dining al fresco, hosting neighborhood cookouts and enjoying intimate cocktail parties under the stars. When creating a backyard oasis to entertain family and friends this summer, it’s important for your space to be both inviting and able to withstand the wear and tear that goes hand-in-hand with warm-weather fun. The outdoor living experts at Trex, the world’s largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking and railing, suggest the following tips:
Check your deck
Nothing spoils a deck party like a nasty splinter or a trip over an uneven board. If your deck needs
a “face lift,” consider replacing old, rotting or warping boards with wood-alternative decking that combines superior durability and low-maintenance with long-lasting good looks. Unlike wood, high-per formance composites resist fading, staining, scratching and mold - and won’t rot, warp, crack or splinter. Upkeep is hasslefree with no sanding, staining or painting required and food and drink spills wash off easily with soap and water. “Who wants an outdoor space that they have to spend more time maintaining than enjoying? For me, composite decking is a no-brainer,” said celebrity deck designer Paul Lafrance of HGTV’s acclaimed “Decked Out” series. “It delivers all the beauty and aesthetics of wood without the backbreaking and time-consuming upkeep.”
Made from reclaimed and recycled materials, composite decking is also environmentally friendly, making it an ideal choice for today’s increasingly eco-conscious consumers.
Create ones
Maximize the function and flow of your outdoor living space by creating different entertainment and comfort “zones.” Establish separate areas for cooking, eating and socializing, just as you have inside your home. Incorporate lots of comfortable seating and dedicate space for guests to relax and converse. Structures like pergolas, trellises, or even tall potted plants, can help separate and define different settings. SEE OUTDOOR, PAGE 19

Personal Space
Refined Farmhouse BY LIBBY JOHNSON
oan and Scott States love their moder n far mhouse on 2432 Adair Road in Lewispor t. They also love horses. By updating and improving their house in almost ever y way and adding accommodations for their equine friends, they’ve created a place where they can retreat to relax and do what they love. “Ever ything is thought of and ever ything is done, and now we’re leaving,” said Joan States. From the outside, the home, with a deep front porch evokes the classic white board farmhouses of ages
J
past. On the inside, a sensible floor plan and updates combine for a result that suits the needs of today’s families. The two story foyer creates a dramatic entrance and wood look tile provides a polished look with minimal upkeep. In the kitchen, newer stainless appliances and a patchwork tile backsplash of neutral colors complement the solid oak cabinets. Ear th toned tile and warm woodwork unite the common areas of the home in an open concept flow that makes the home ideal for entertaining or simply being together. The spacious owners’ suite has a charming bay window sitting area with views of the countr yside. The master bath has a garden tub, his and
hers sinks, separate water closet, and a large walk in shower with an inset of glass mosaic tiles. There is also a generous walk in closet, and the laundry room is also on the main level. Upstairs, the amenities are rounded out by two additional bedrooms, a gameroom/bonus space, and “more storage than you can imagine,” according to Joan States. However enjoyable the inside of the States’ home is, the outside features are what make the property so unique. The couple recently re-did the back porch, added a BBQ pit and new pergola and patio, and built a retaining wall with integrated night lighting. Joan States says she and her fam-
ily have enjoyed hours of relaxation in the outdoor living space, which she summarizes as “peaceful.” The States, who train and ride Quarterhorses, built a one acre, fully enclosed and insulated riding arena. Four garage style doors that open and make it “pleasant for summer,” States said. There is also an 80-foot round pen, two pastures and a hay barn. Hook up for a recreational vehicle or a horse trailer with living quarters also exists on the property. 2434 Adair Road is a property that’s worth the drive.

Let there be light
The right lighting can take any outdoor space from invisible to inviting. Adding dimmable LED lighting to railings and stairs not only adds atmosphere, but also enhances security and extends the time you can spend enjoying your outdoor living space. For maximum ambiance and safety, focus on illuminating entryways, paths, steps, railings and specific task areas, such as an outdoor kitchen or bar. On a budget? Infuse light and warmth with candles, lanterns or tiki torches. “One of the hottest trends right now - literally - is fire features that not only add ambiance to an outdoor space but also provide heat and light that allow you to use your deck later into the evening and into the year,” Lafrance said. “Fire pits and fireplaces also provide great focal points and natural gathering spots for conversation and, of course, s’mores.”
FROM PAGE 15
Food and drink stations - arguably the most crucial element of a party - should be prominent and accessible to guests. Because people always follow the food, you may also want to set up food or serving carts at the edge of your social space. And don’t forget a kid-friendly zone with games, such as corn hole, badminton and ladder ball, and other fun activities that require minimal supervision to help keep children entertained and allow grown-up guests to mingle and enjoy themselves.
Frame your space
While railings provide an obvious and necessary safety function, they also ser ve an important aesthetic role by creating a decorative frame for outdoor spaces. Additionally, the right railing can maximize scenic views or enhance the privacy of an outdoor setting. Available in a wide variety of designs, materials and colors, there are thousands of decking and railing combinations from which to choose. To help simplify the selection process, Trex
of fers a Decking and Railing Duos online tool, which delivers customized couplings based on consumer preferences and proven, designer-selected pairings. The tool even allows users to download a complete ordering guide and materials list for their favorite looks.
Stock up on storage
Make enter taining a breeze with built-in storage to keep backyard bash supplies organized and at-hand. Homeowners can now outfit an outdoor living space with ingenious storage solutions for everything from pillows and

pool supplies to food, beverages and tableware. The Trex Outdoor Storage collection even offers a hidden ice drawer that chills drinks and snacks so hosts can spend time enjoying the festivities rather than continuously running inside to replenish what’s needed outside.
Don’t forget the finishing touches
Customize your outdoor living space to make family and friends feel truly welcome. Infuse charm and your own personal style with accessories such as vibrant weather- and stainresistant throw pillows and cushions. Opt for elegant outdoor tableware over flimsy paper and plastic, and integrate artistic accents and accessories just as you would inside your home to give the space the look and feel of an outdoor great room. “There is a huge trend right now of bringing traditionally ‘indoor’ comforts out to the deck, porch or patio to create fully functional and furnished outdoor rooms,” Lafrance said. “Thanks to advances in all-weather materials, furnishings and accessories, you can outfit an outdoor living space in much the same way that you would any room in the home.”

Which fixes are worth it to lure buyers? O
BY NEWS USA
kay, don’t panic. If you’re one of those homeowners who’s been moaning about how hard it’s been trying to sell your house, your bargaining power -you remember that concept, right? -hasn’t been completely devastated just because a flood of new foreclosures is expected to hit the market as a result of the recent $25 billion “robo-signing” mortgage settlement. In fact, while studies have shown your own property value could take up to another 4 percent hit if you’re
within a quarter mile of a foreclosure ultimately snapped up at auction or taken back by the lender, the thing to remember is this: Most buyers today are only interested in homes that are “move-in-ready,” so if yours isn’t ... well, there’s your problem. “Buyers generally look at ‘as-is’ proper ties that need work, and say ‘I’ll pass,’” says Patsy O’Neill, a sales associate with Sotheby’s in Montclair, N.J. “That’s why I tell clients it’s worth making certain strategic fixes if they’re looking for quicker and more profitable sales.” So, which “fixes” are worth it, and
which aren’t? Worth It: Addressing major maintenance and safety issues. Would you buy a house with faulty electrical wiring? Enough said. Not Worth It: Major bath renovations. “Whatever you do might not suit the buyer,” says O’Neill, “and meanwhile, you’d have spent as much as tens of thousands of dollars.” Meaning, stick to things like repairing cracked shower doors, and save your visions of a modern-day spa for your own new abode. Worth It: Ripping up old carpeting. Whether you replace it with new car-
pets or refinish the underlying wood floor is less important than getting rid of an eyesore. Not Worth It: Major kitchen renovations. Same “taste” issue as above. Worth It: Anything that enhances “curb appeal.” If the first thing prospective buyers notice even before exiting their cars is that your roof looks like it’s been whipped by a tornado, say, chances are you’ve already lost the sale. Not Worth It: Anything that screams clutter. The less of “you” there is, the more likely prospective buyers are to imagine themselves happily living there.

10 smart security steps for seniors BPT
F
rom identity theft to home burglar y, it’s an unfortunate fact that senior citizens are often a target for criminals. By taking simple security measures while at home and out traveling, you can dramatically reduce the likelihood you or a loved one is victimized. Always lock doors: Whether you’re in a home or an apartment, always keep doors locked. It’s a simple yet effective step to keep property and the residents safe, during the day and in the evening. Secure patio doors: Determined criminals won’t stop even though the front door is locked. Use the Master Lock 265DCCSEN Security Door Bar to restrict patio and sliding glass doors from being pried open. Ask for identification: When service or delivery people come to the door, ask for ID. If you still feel uneasy, get a number to reschedule the visit and then call the company directly to confirm the employee’s status. Secure small valuables: Whether home or away, use a light portable safe. The Master Lock 5900D SafeSpace Portable Personal Safe keeps cash, docu-
ments, electronics and small valuables safe, plus the cable can be wrapped around a fixed object or serve as a carrying handle. Vary routine while home: While home, try to vary the routine periodically. Criminals track when you come and go, so if it’s obvious you’re always gone during cer-
tain times, your home can easily be targeted. Maintain routine while gone: If traveling, make it seem like someone is home. If you can’t get a house sitter, make sure to stop the newspaper and mail delivery and have a neighbor bring your trash in on the appropriate days. Keep keys close: Skip the obvious doormat or planter and instead store spare keys and access cards securely by using a Master Lock 5422D Push Button Portable Key Safe. Plus, the protective weather cover prevents freezing and jamming. Travel with less: When traveling, avoid drawing attention by wearing minimal jewelry and carrying only the necessary cash. You’ll feel confident and enjoy your trip more when you leave jewelry and other valuables at home. No need to name: For phone books, organization directories and apartment lobbies, list your first initial rather than your full first name. This can help protect your identification; strangers won’t know your full name while friends and relatives will recognize your initial. With these simple safety measures, senior citizens can feel protected in their homes for years to come.
How to find the right real estate lawyer METRO CREATIVE CONNECTION
B
uying or selling real estate is rarely free of complications. Unforeseen issues often arise during real estate transactions, and in such instances a real estate attorney can prove invaluable. While buyers, sellers or veteran real estate investors might be able to handle minor or routine issues on their own or with the help of their realtor, more complex matters are best left in the hands of a real estate attorney. One of the benefits to hiring a real estate attorney when negotiating a complex or potentially complex real estate transaction is the expertise that lawyers can bring to the table. Realtors may have vast experience buying and selling homes, and many are adept at negotiating as well. But realtors are not licensed to practice law, and even the savviest realtor would admit that offering legal advice is not his or her forte. Men and women involved in complex or potentially complex real estate transactions would be wise to hire a real estate attorney, and the following are a few things to consider before hiring someone to represent you.
Experience
One of the reasons to hire a real estate attorney is to make use of their experience. Hurdles have a tendency to spring up during complicated real estate transactions. Men and women involving themselves in development deals or buying rental properties likely won’t see potential red flags as clearly as a veteran real estate attorney will. When interviewing a real estate attorney, ask how long he has been working as a real estate lawyer and how long he has been practicing in your particular state and city. Zoning laws and other restrictions vary from state to state and city to city, so look for a lawyer who has considerable experience in your state and city or the state and city where the transaction is taking place.
Plan of action
When interviewing prospective attorneys, don’t assume each one knows the best way to approach your particular case. Provide the details of your transaction and then ask each attorney to explain how they would approach the case. A veteran real estate attorney should be able to provide a detailed
account of how he plans to represent you, including what needs to be done to get the transaction off the ground, any potential hurdles that might need to be cleared and how to clear those should they arise. Avoid attorneys who give general or ambiguous answers, as such answers may be poor attempts by the lawyer to mask his or her inexperience with transactions such as yours. Some attorneys may request time to develop a plan of action, and you should not immediately remove them from consideration, especially if they ultimately answer the question in thoughtful detail.
Billing
Attorneys are expensive, so it’s best to discuss the billing process before hiring someone to represent you. Attorneys tend to bill by the hour, but their rates may be negotiable depending on the service they’re providing. Those who will be overseeing your real estate transaction and continuously representing you will likely bill by the hour, but if you’re hiring a real estate attorney to examine a potential agreement or draft a contract then you can probably negotiate a flat
fee for those services. But be sure to discuss billing before hiring an attorney. Real estate transactions are rarely inexpensive, so you don’t want to be blindsided down the road when your legal bills come due.
Representation
When interviewing an attorney, many people assume the attorney they initially interviewed will be the person who represents them throughout the transaction. However, the day-to-day work on your case may be assigned to a junior associate or even someone who isn’t licensed to practice law, such as a paralegal or a current law school student who is interning with the firm. These people might be perfectly capable of handling your transaction, but you should meet them before hiring the firm to represent you. A good rapport with the person who will be working on your case can ease the stress associated with complex real estate transactions. Real estate attorneys can help men and women navigate the sometimes turbulent waters of real estate transactions, and it helps to consider a host of factors before hiring a firm to represent you.

Don’t want no church people ‘round here. getting old. What’s also way past due is a Now that I’ve got your attention, allow revolution from the people in the pews. My me to explain. I don’t want to overstate own church has turned into one big, long, this, so let me put it this way: Church never-ending scandal throughout the course people are generally the worst people in of my life; shame on us all for not storming the the world. Catholic, Protestant, Mormon, Vatican with pitchforks years ago to throw Scientologist, or the religion whose name I the bums out and demand better. When dare not speak, just pick your poison. Look you allow evil to fester, it only comes back for the people that are overly involved in stronger the next time. By not lancing the organized religion and you will �nd some infected Curia, and allowing the criminals to continue to elect their leader time after of the worst scum of the earth in time, we have allowed dysfunction very high places. Marx theorized to spread through all levels of the and Lenin agreed that “religion is organization. I can hear the howling the opiate of the masses.” I’m not already: “It’s just a small percentage. one to quote communists much, You can’t condemn the whole group but in this case they may have for the actions of a few.” Truth is… had a point. I would only add “organized” to the beginning Brad Cecil you can. As Edmund Burke said, Broker, “The only thing necessary for the of the quote. Too many higher ups in churches remind me of etc. triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” Too many good men have drug dealers by taking money for the things they want from people been doing nothing for too long; covering who desperately need something; in this their own rear ends and allowing evil men case the “high” is replaced by salvation. to rampage about. As long as the shrapnel I was reminded of how awful some doesn’t hit them, they don’t seem to care. Don’t think me overly pious. I’m a sinner church people were the other day by a customer, a church person, who acted in praying for salvation along side of the rest a most uncharitable nature when they of humanity. I’m just a man who has done didn’t get what they wanted. They were a good bit of business with priests and generally small, petty, and rude. When preachers. And I have found most of them it happened I had a �ashback of sorts to be more like the priest or Levite in the to all the other church people I’ve dealt parable above. Most of the ones I’ve known with over the years. I’m no bible scholar have gotten into the preaching business myself, but I was quick to think of the because it’s good business. Flexible hours, parable of the good Samaritan. The priest cheap housing, and most all the churches and Levite (both church people, right?) are air conditioned these days. Not many passed by the downtrodden man on the hard working, get ahead types go into the road, and the non-church person, the business. It’s more the, “Pay my bills for Samaritan, helped the injured man by me and I’ll make you feel guilty about giving of his time and treasure to save not giving enough of your income away” his life. He was most charitable, and his crowd. I’m not condemning you if you go charity would save him according to the to church. God Bless You! All I’m saying Big JC. That uncharitable person that I is that what you do on Sunday probably had the misfortune of doing business with matters less than what you do the other six recently would do well to read the story days of the week. In my life I’ve also done and take it to heart. Whether it’s Tom business with a number of Samaritans who Cruise going around destroying people rarely see the inside of a church building; for not paying enough to his church, or some truly �ne people. I’ve never worn one the lowliest deacon at the 14th Baptist of those amulets that says, “I’m a Catholic, Church of Topeka, Kansas trying to extort please call a priest.” Instead I am thinking money from his congregants, the habit of of having one made up special: “I am a people abusing the power of the pulpit to person; call a Samaritan.” If it’s a Samaritan take advantage of well meaning people is priest… so much the better.

Putting your vacation home to work for you I BY NEWS USA
f your vacation home has started to become more of a financial headache than a refuge, it might be time to consider renting out your property. According to industry experts, an average vacation home can garner an owner an extra $30,000 of income per year. “Renting out your vacation home can open up a significant stream of revenue,” says Mar y L ynn Clark, president of Wyndham Vacation Rentals North America. “Understanding the business side, and all it entails, however, is a critical part of increasing your home’s value without adding hassle.” Before listing your home for rent, it’s important to decide whether you will handle the details yourself (think booking, reser vations, marketing, maintenance and management) or hire a vacation rental firm. While doing it all yourself may sound like a good idea (and the Internet has certainly made that a viable option with hundreds of rental listing sites), a recent study shows that owners spend an average of more than eight hours per week marketing and managing their vacation properties. This translates to a heavy time commitment that few people have. Professional management companies, such as Wyndham Vacation Rentals, can help keep your

proper ty occupied by using its vast network of resources and commitment to take care of guests’ experiences. Unlike other vacation rental companies, Wyndham offers a host of unique benefit programs along
with dynamic pricing to get owners the most value possible. Most importantly, it offers a Vacation Rental Bill of Rights that assures guests that Wyndham will take care of their needs every step of the way.
