PATRICK MCCARRAN
When Buying a New Construction Home, Use A Realtor Did you know that you can be represented by your own agent when you purchase a New Home? With new home construction going strong you may not think it is necessary to involve a real estate professional in a transaction where the buyer can deal directly with the builder. Think again! The builder’s agent is representing the builder’s best interest. As your buyer’s agent a Realtor can guide you along the right path, smooth the rough places and help ensure you make a decision you can live with (and in) for many years. As your agent, the Realtor is representing your best interests. Your agent can suggest builders based on their reputation for delivering a high-quality product, responding quickly to issues, and being financially sound. Your agent may be familiar with how a builder prices his products and where there may be room
to negotiate price, additional items the builder may be willing to sweeten the deal with and help with which upgrades to purchase for resale. Your agent can assist you as you face hundreds of design choices and consider which upgrades provide the best value in terms of resale and whether to upgrade from an outside vendor. The upgrades or options available will vary from builder to builder and the choices you make will depend on largely personal decisions. Often a buyer can pay far less after the home is built by contracting with a third party but price is not always the only consideration. You need to consider the convenience, cosmetic ramifications and if it is even feasible to perform after the home is built.
The lender approval process may go smoother if your agent schedules visits, accompanies you to lenders, and helps expedite required documents. When relocating to a new area, your agent can be a particularly valuable resource. In addition to providing local area information regarding schools, day care, elder care services, medical offices
and doctors, public transportation, proposed development, and so on. Once construction is under way, your agent can periodically stop by the work site, supply you with progress reports, and photograph various phases of the construction.
REMEMBER the builder will require your agent to accompany you on your first visit to the site. So let your Realtor shop with you. It is not an inconvenience for them, it is their job. By now, you should be convinced of a real estate professional’s value as you search and purchase a new construction home. Still, here’s one more great reason to work with an agent—the builder pays the agent’s commission. You enjoy individual attention and support at NO cost to you. What a great way to start life in a new home! Patrick McCarran is a local Realtor and Broker. Call/text 925-899-5536 • pmccarran@yahoo.com • CallPatrick.com Independently owned and operated.

FOR YOUR DENTAL HEALTH APOLLO DENTAL CARE
Kidney Disease and Oral Health Kidneys perform extremely important functions in the body. They expel waste like urea, help produce red blood cells, regulate blood pressure and regulate calcium, phosphate and vitamin D in the body. Kidney disease often does not exhibit any symptoms until it is in the advanced stages. The dentist can help detect early warning signs by evaluating patients for high blood pressure and determining whether patients have a history of heart and kidney disease. If the early signs are present the patient can be referred to their physician as early treatment can reduce the likelihood of End Stage Renal Disease or ESRD from developing. Kidney disease is a progressively debilitating condition that leads to ESRD in which the kidneys cease to
support daily bodily function requiring either dialysis or a kidney transplant. The progression to kidney failure may take as long as 10 to 20 years. Diabetes and High blood pressure are the most common causes of ESRD in the United States. More than 871,000 people receive treatment for kidney disease. Aging population as well as the increased prevalence of obesity, diabetes and hypertension have contributed to rapid increase in ESRD. Cardiovascular disease associated with ESRD is the most frequent cause of death among older adults. Kidney failure may cause a variety of changes in the mouth like paleness of the tissue in the mouth, breath that smells like ammonia, mouth ulcers and dryness in the mouth. Patients may experience increased formation of plaque and calculus, jaw tumors and delayed healing. Patients undergoing dialysis take blood thinners so they need to let the dentist know about it as they can have excessive bleeding if certain dental procedures are performed. Patients undergoing dialysis may need to take antibiotics prior to their dental appointments.

Certain medications like antibiotics and pain medication should not be taken in patients with kidney disease. In addition to all these precautions, caries prevention and monitoring gum and periodontal health regularly with the dentist is important as both tends to worsen as kidney disease progresses.
