Who’s Who... in East County
Lose 10-30 inches safely in an hour, tighten skin, reduce cellulite Basically, this wrap is a food grade inorganic mineral and distilled water solution. You are wrapped tightly with ace type bandages that are soaked in the heated mineral solution. You will be in the wrap for an hour and while you are in the body wrap you will move around and stimulate circulation with moderate exercise. It isn’t about getting hot or sweaty just stimulating circulation in the areas you would like the best results. As soon as the minerals touch your skin your body takes in the minerals it needs as most are mineral deficient. When the minerals come in, the body has to release something, so it releases impurities and the bandages compact firm and tone. The results are accumulative, and many lose more inches the second and third times they come in then the first. Ideally, I like to see people once a week for best results however as long as you come in before your maintenance you will see a positive result. Directly after receiving the wrap if you do something to sweat while the minerals are still on your skin and drink plenty of water for the next 3-4 days you will lose more inches. When I was getting them done, I ended up doing them once a week for 9 weeks and then I went to maintenance. When I was eating good and exercising my maintenance was once every 6-7 months when I wasn’t doing the right things maintenance was monthly. This particular wrap has been around since 1969 and many celebrities, professional athletes, body builders and military personal still frequently come in for this service. The minerals are very healthy for you and the side effect is inch loss and skin toning and tightening. Since I moved from my downtown office in 2008, I operate out of my ranch office in Brentwood and have been in business since 2001. It is quite relaxing and often you will see horses running by the windows to get water on the top of my hill. I book by appointment only and work evenings Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and mornings Friday and Saturday.

PATRICK MCCARRAN
Do I Need a Home Warranty? Are you concerned about basic maintenance on a home? Whether it is a rental, a new purchase or an existing home, a warranty can help. There are quite of few basic coverage options for everyday issues such as being overrun by ants or a clogged toilet, for just a $75 service call you can have this taken care of saving as much as $200. It is largely for reasons such as these that I highly recommend them and the peace of mind that they can bring. Considering that the average water heater runs about $1300, and a new furnace and A/C can run over $10,000 with the new SEER laws, a home warranty can save you thousands of dollars on a repair that pops up after you purchase a home. I think it is important to understand that a home warranty is not an end all be all warranty and you should be aware of exactly what the home warranty covers. It does not cover everything that may go
wrong but does cover a great many items. The warranty brochure will spell out exactly what is covered and what is NOT covered. It has been my experience that the major warranty providers do not try to “wiggle out� of paying, if it is covered and not obviously a pre-existing condition then they will repair or replace. In general the warranty will cover items not covered by your homeowners insurance. For example, if a pipe leaks the homeowner’s policy will cover the damage caused by the leak but not repair the pipe, the home warranty will cover the pipe but not the damage. Be aware that if the warranty is generally only for basic coverage, you will need extended coverage, such as for pool equipment, air conditioning, or even the refrigerator, you may be able to negotiate that extra cost with the seller, or consider paying the difference yourself. It is important to note that you must file a claim with the warranty company and use their service provider, if you have a problem you can request a new vendor but you cannot generally call your own contractor and expect the warranty to pay them. Remember that although most home warranties provide coverage only for one year, but you can always extend for more time upfront or most plans are renewable after the first year. One of my clients kept
their home warranty for the 22 years they owned the home. Take note of what the deductible or per visit cost for repairs? What is the maximum dollar amount for repairs and what are the policy limitations such as new fittings or SEER inspections or permits? Also, the warranty company can buy out the claim, sometimes this may work out better for the homeowner. Home warranties definitely have a place when it comes to protection and peace of mind. For sellers or landlords, they can act as “insuranceâ€? so you won’t get an angry call about the bad water heater in the house and for buyers you don’t have to worry about dealing with the added expense of replacing a major system or appliance after you move in. Have any questions on home warranties and providers? Give me a call and know your options. Patrick McCarran is a local Realtor and Broker.
