(BPT) — Last winter’s visit from the polar vortex made for bone-chilling blizzards and teeth-chattering temperatures. If this year is anything like the last, drafty homes and high thermostat settings will accompany the freezing weather. Unfortunately, many homeowners get cold feet when it comes to weatherizing their homes, citing various reasons
why they don’t just get it done. Here are five common weatherizing myths you should overcome to help you get ready this winter: Myth No. 1: Weatherizing requires a handyman Hiring a professional to weatherize isn’t necessary.

and can be installed in just a weekend. Myth No. 2: Weatherizing isn’t affordable Many do-it-yourself weatherizing products are easy on your wallet. Actually, homeowners can potentially save hundreds of dollars per year on their heating (and cooling) costs by properly air sealing their homes and keeping thermostat temperatures low. Myth No. 3: Weatherize when it’s cold It’s never too early to weatherize, especially as you prepare for Old Man Winter. For best results, take a top-down approach: Start with the attic, winterize windows, close gaps around and under doors, and hit the walls to tackle hidden sources of energy loss. Be sure to check your home’s nooks

Essential tips to turn your new house into a home (BPT) — Moving brings great opportunities in the form of careers, social connections and new beginnings. However, the act of moving can create unnecessary stress and tension, which makes the process less than desirable. About 35 percent of Americans move every five years, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, which results in many people who are looking to simplify the process and turn their new house into a home. Celebrity design expert and ADT spokesperson Sabrina Soto has the expert moving advice to make your house a home: • Review everything being packed: If you have items you
won’t use or haven’t used in six months, put them aside. They are good candidates for selling at a garage sale, listing in online classified ads, donating to charity, or as a last-case scenario, throwing away. Also, look for ways to reduce your load. Canned goods may still have shelf life, but evaluate whether it makes sense to move or donate - it’s likely the latter. The same goes for other items you can easily and inexpensively purchase at a discount store when you arrive at your destination. As you approach moving day, be sure to think twice before loading up at grocery or convenience stores.
As you take inventory of everything in your home, be sure to clean, organize and sort the remaining items so they can be packed quickly and then easily found when you arrive at your new home. • Get secured before you move: Feeling secure and in control is an important part of transforming a new house into a home. An ADT Pulse home security and automation system gives homeowners the ability to not only monitor their home’s security, but also control functions such as adjusting lights, unlocking doors and controlling thermostats - all with the touch of an app. Plus, it can start work-
ing for new homeowners on day one, whether using it to grant access to trusted contractors and technicians or receiving alerts when deliveries arrive at the front door. In a new neighborhood and a new house, it will be a sigh of relief to know you’re in control both at home and while away. • Keep organized on moving day: Walk through the old home with your movers to identify how you’d like your items organized and packed. Let them know you want the house packed room by room, which will make it easier to unpack and place everything into your new house. If you have anything fragile, be sure to note
how you’d like those items to be handled, saving you plenty of time and headaches in the long run. If you’re planning to move yourself, it’s important to take precautions and protect your belongings while the truck is being loaded and unloaded. Have a team of trusted friends or family help you - the more sets of eyes, the easier it will be to keep track of your belongings. If you need to keep the truck parked overnight, back the vehicle up to a wall or garage door, which will make it difficult for someone to break in. • Make yourself a happy place: Choose one room in your
new home to be the room you completely unpack and organize on the first day. This gives you a restful sanctuary where you can retreat, even if the rest of your items are still in boxes scattered among the other rooms for several days to come. • Document and share the transformation: Use your smartphone or camera to document the change of your new home as your items are unpacked and placed. This allows you to see how your hard work has paid off. With these tips, you can streamline your move and make it less stressful for you and your family.
MYTHS
weatherized properly. One common place to feel drafts is by doors, especially as cracks and gaps can let cold air in and warm air out. Look for insulating seals to stop leaks, like the Triple Draft Seal from Duck brand. A nonails-needed door bottom, the Triple Draft Seal slides
on to prevent drafts from under the door and offers three layers of draft protection: an inner seal helps retain room temperature, an outer seal blocks drafts and the bottom fins help keep out moisture and water. Myth No. 5: Windows and doors are my only problem
Windows and doors are prime spots for energy loss, accounting for most air leaks and bitter drafts entering your home, but behind-the-scenes sources also should be addressed. Something as simple as insulating electrical outlets and switch plates on exterior walls can create a buffer between the
outdoor air and your home’s inside. To prevent drafts even further, don’t forget to check the attic. Attic access openings or pull-down stairs are often overlooked and are actually a big source of energy loss. To combat drafts, use an insulating attic seal, like the patented Attic Stairway Cover from Duck
brand. It’s flexible, lightweight, easy to install and repositionable for attic access. Don’t let these common misconceptions scare you. As it turns out, weatherizing can be an affordable and easy do-it-yourself project. For tips and more information, visit DuckBrand.com/HomeSmart.

FHA Loan Requirements for 2017
FHA loan requirements for 2017 are contained in a 1,009-page “handbook” published by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. You would need at least a 20-ounce cup of coffee with a turbo shot just to stay awake through the first 20 pages. Good news: You don’t have to.
FHA loan down payment
A core requirement in getting an FHA-insured loan is a FICO credit score of 500 or better. That gets you in the door, but to snag the lowest down payment, you’ll need a much higher credit score. “To qualify for FHA’s minimum down payment of 3.5%, a borrower must have a credit score of 580 or above,” Brian Sullivan, HUD public affairs specialist, tells NerdWallet. “Between 500 to 579, the borrower must put 10% down.”
FHA loan income requirements
There is no minimum — or maximum — salary you can earn that will qualify or prohibit you from getting an FHA-insured mortgage. However, you must: Have at least two established credit accounts. Examples: a credit card and a car loan. Not have delinquent federal debt or judgments — tax-related or otherwise — or debt associated with past FHA-insured mortgages Account for cash gifts that help with the down payment. These gifts must be verified in writing, signed and dated by the donor.
FHA debt-to-income requirements
Your total debt-to-income ratio — including the new mortgage, credit cards, student loans and any other monthly obligations — must be 50% or less, according to Sullivan.
FHA loan limits
The property must meet FHA geographic loan limits. In 2017, that’s generally $275,665 for single-family homes in low-cost areas and $636,150 in high-cost areas. Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, and the Virgin Islands have limits up to $721,050.
FHA property requirements
In addition to borrower qualifications, the property itself must meet certain requirements before you can qualify for an FHA mortgage. Investment properties are not eligible The property can’t be a flip: meaning you can’t buy a house within 90 days of a prior sale You must take title to the property in your own name or in the name of a living trust at settlement The loan must be for a principal residence, and at least one borrower must occupy the property within 60 days of closing An FHA appraisal includes a strict inspection, assessing a home not only on value but also on minimum property standards
FHA documentation
Here is some of the documentation you will need when applying for an FHA home loan. You must show proof of a Social Security number Provide original pay stubs, W-2 forms or valid tax returns, as necessary Of course, there are other stipulations — remember the handbook is 1,009 pages — but an FHA-approved lender will walk you through the details if other requirements apply to you.
There are lender requirements, too
The FHA is insuring the loan, but a lender makes the final decision — and can determine what specific qualifications it requires. “We can set our standards, and we can say, ‘If you meet these requirements, FHA will insure a mortgage on that loan.’ And yet, lenders may add on what are called ‘credit overlays’ on top of our standards, and make it that much harder to qualify for a loan that they originate,” Sullivan says. Those requirements can include a higher FICO credit score, or a better debt-to-income ratio. It’s a good reason to shop more than one lender.
