Keep the heat in and the cold out this winter: Tips for a cozy home (BPT) - Winter this year promises to be harsh across much of the U.S. The Farmers’ Almanac predicts conditions will be “bitter cold,” “unseasonably cold,” “very chilly” and “frigid” for states east of the Mississippi River. In a word, brrrrrr! Autumn is the perfect time to make sure your home stays warm and cozy, in preparation for when the bitter blasts of January and February come pounding. With some simple DIY insulation projects, you can keep the heat in and the cold out this winter, while also saving on your heating bill.
Check the basement
One of the first places to check for proper insulation is the basement. “Up to 25 percent of a home’s heat loss is through the basement,” says Tom Savoy, technical director for Insulfoam. Many homes in the U.S. were built with fiberglass batts between wood wall studs, which is notoriously leaky, providing a bridge for heat to pass through the wall, says Savoy. Such insulation can also trap moisture in the walls, causing a musty basement smell. “Even if you don’t spend time in the basement, it’s crucial to insulate it right to help manage the heating throughout the rest of your home,” says Savoy. A simple solution is adding a layer of continuous insulation to the home’s basement walls using rigid foam boards, such as expanded polystyrene (EPS). Available in home improvement stores, EPS insulation is easy to cut and
install using standard tools around the house. Unlike many other insulations, rigid foam boards are thin and easy to handle, without messy fibers to cleanup. “EPS is a professional grade insulation that even DIYers can install,” says Savoy. To get started insulating your basement, you will first need to figure out how much insulation you will need, based on its “R-value.” R-value is the measure of an insulation’s ability to resist heat flow, with higher numbers meaning better performance. A quick call to your city or county building department will let you know what Rvalue is appropriate, and if you’ll need to take anything else into account with your insulation project.

Take a look in the attic
In addition to insulating the basement, another leaky area to check is attic hatches. As heat rises, these hatches often have gaps around them, allowing the warm air to escape. Properly sealing them with weather stripping and adding a layer of rigid foam to the hatch will help keep heat in your living area. To get ready for the coming shivery weather, the Farmers’ Almanac suggests stocking up on “sweaters, long johns, and plenty of firewood.” Part of your preparation should also include an easy weekend or two of adding insulation to your home.

Looking to buy a home? 6 mortgage steps you need to know (BPT) - The home loan process can seem intimidating, especially for a first-time homebuyer. It is not a simple process, but it doesn’t have to be too complicated. There are many resources available to help you prepare for your home buying journey, and your mortgage lender can answer the questions you have throughout the process. “We’re finding that many of our customers come intothehomeloanprocesswithlimitedknowledgeof how the home loan process works,” says Eric Hamilton, President of Vanderbilt Mortgage and Finance. “It’s important to take the time to familiarize yourself with the process so you know what to expect.” Here are some of the key steps to the home loan process, as well as some tips to help you understand what you can expect: 1. Preparation and self-assessment Before you dive head-first into buying a home, make sure that you know how much you can afford. The first step is to calculate your “debt-to-income ratio.” You can do this by adding up your current monthly bills then subtracting your total current income. This will help you determine whether you can afford a mortgage payment, and if so, what amount might fit into your budget. Using an online mortgage calculator is a good way to help you determine what the estimated cost of your monthly mortgage payment will be. Doing these calculations first will help you assess your resources and determine your budget to purchase a home. 2. The loan application Download a blank loan application ahead of time soyoucanlookitoverandfamiliarizeyourselfwithit. Thiswillgiveyouanideaoftheinformationyouneed when completing and submitting the application.
The necessary documents may include: proof of income, proof of employment for the past two years, proof of identity, proof of residency and your social security card. 3. Origination and Underwriting Origination - The loan officer will review your financing options, work with you to complete the credit application and create the loan account. Underwriting - An underwriter will review the application and determine the level of credit risk you represent based on your credit score, income, existing debt and down payment. You may be asked to provide additional information about your finances during this step. 4. Satisfying loan conditions and full loan approval In this step, you will receive a “conditions to approval” list from your lender, which outlines the tasks you must complete before the loan can be closed. For example, the lender may ask for additional documentation to verify income, savings or emergencyfundsorotherproofthatyoucanaffordtorepay the loan. At this point in the process the lender may offer a conditional loan approval and start the documentverificationprocess.Ifyouaccepttheconditional loan approval offer, once all conditions have been met, the lender will issue a full loan approval. 5. Processing Once you’ve selected your dream home, you’ll sign a purchase agreement with the seller. The purchase agreement tells the lender how much you have agreed to pay to purchase the home. The lender may then have the home appraised and will provide you with a copy of the appraisal.
20 H O M E M A R K E T NOVEMBER 2015
6. Closing In the final step of the process, the lender works withatitlecompanytoobtainandreviewatitlereport and then finalize your title on the home. The titling company receives a closing package, which contains the documents that need to be signed, recorded and becomepart of your mortgageloan file. At the closing, you will sign all closing documents and pay any closing costs. The lender then receives all of this signed paperwork to complete the process. Once this process is complete, you’re ready to move into your dream home. The home loan process may take some time, but these steps are well worth the wait.
