HOME & GARDEN SHOW CHANCE TO MEET POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS BY RICHARD MIZE

Are home-and-garden shows “passe”? Not to hear Tim Turner tell it. The homebuilder — the “son” in Turner & Son Homes — conceded he’s never had an exhibit in one before. But he said it’s hard to imagine it not being worth the trouble and expense to load up a few pieces of furniture and some other things for a booth at this weekend’s 29th annual Oklahoma City Home and Garden Show. “It’s the first time I’ve ever done it,” he said of the show, which continues from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. today and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday. Admission is $11, with children younger than 12 admitted free. “I hope to have some conversations with people who own their own land,” Turner said. Turner said he is betting that at least some of the 30,000 or so people traipsing through five exhibit buildings at State Fair Park are landowners “who haven’t thought about” building a house. He and a salesperson will be there to try to persuade then. “I’m going to spend some money for a booth and spend some time standing on my feet,” said Turner, who has been building homes for a dozen years with his father, longtime builder Ben Turner, who started out in 1964. Turner & Son Homes is one of seven building companies with exhibits at the Home and Garden Show, a concept some builders dismissed last year as passe in light of the Internet and, a more recent innovation, the explosion in social media. The Central Oklahoma Home Builders Association, after a 50-year run, did not have its Home & Garden Expo last year and is not planning one this year. Other metro-area homebuilding companies with booths in the show are 4Corners Homes, Beacon Fine Homes, Hybrid Design Build (insulated concrete homes), J&R Custom Homes, Home Creations and UBuildIt-Oklahoma City. Most of the approximately 500 exhibitors are geared toward home improvement and remodeling, including service providers and suppliers.

Decor is challenging when you’re planning a wedding or a shower to be held in your home.

Q. How do you pick out a hammer? There are so many choices. A. A claw hammer is the most versatile type for everyday use. One with a curved rather than straight claw will give you more leverage in prying out nails. John D. Wagner, a green building consultant and writer from Montpelier, Vt., recommends a 16-ounce claw hammer. For light use such as hanging pictures, a hammer with a hickory handle is fine, he said. For heavier use, however, he recommends spending more for a hammer with an ergonomic, vibration-absorbing handle. If you want to expand your toolbox, you can choose a 13-ounce hammer for trim work and a 20- or 22-ounce hammer for framing, he said.

The low down: Rules on ‘flipping’ are no flop WASHINGTON — When you hear that the Obama administration plans to extend a policy that allows low-down-payment financing of “flipped” houses for 2011, your first reaction might be: No way. At this stage of the boomto-bust-to-recovery cycle, is high-leverage house-flipping the type of activity the federal government should be encouraging? Definitely not. A classic real-estate flip involves the quick resale of a house or condominium at a significantly higher price than the purchaser paid with only cosmetic improvements to the property, if any at all. Sometimes only the contract itself is being signed over to a new buyer at a higher price. A transaction in Florida last year illustrates the concept: An investor bought 19 condo units in a financially distressed Miami development for $1.25

million. She closed on the deal and then resold the units barely 20 minutes later to another investor for $1.45 million — a $200,000 instant profit. “That was a pretty impressive flip, even for this market,” said Peter Zalewski, founder of Condo Vultures LLC, a firm that tracks condo activity in the Miami area and advises investors. The Obama administration plan has no connection with deals like these, though the word “flipping” is in its title. A little history: For years, the federal government had prohibited the use of Federal Housing Administration

mortgage financing by buyers purchasing homes from sellers who had owned the property for less than 90 days. The idea was to prevent speculators from defrauding the government through quick flips of houses — usually involving straw buyers and corrupt appraisers — at wildly inflated prices. One side effect of that policy, however, had been to stifle purchase-andrenovate projects by legitimate, small-scale investors who buy houses after foreclosure or loan defaults and then resell them in substantially improved condition. In many parts of the country, first-time and moderate-income buyers often sought to buy these fixed-up houses using FHA-insured mortgages with 3.5 percent down payments, but were prevented from doing so by the long-standing “anti-flipping” rules. This, in turn, left large

numbers of foreclosed, vacant houses sitting unsold and deteriorating, with negative effects on the values of neighboring properties. Last January, FHA Commissioner David H. Stevens announced a oneyear suspension of that rule, permitting qualified buyers to obtain FHA mortgages on properties that were acquired by rehabbers less than 90 days before. The plan, set to expire at the end of this month, came with key safeguards for purchasers, including inspections and multiple appraisals in some cases to document the amounts spent by investors on the improvements. Vicki Bott, deputy assistant secretary for single family housing at FHA, confirmed in an interview that the agency expects to continue the policy for another year, and hopes to make a formal announce-

ment soon. Not only have first-time buyers responded overwhelmingly to the opportunity to buy “turnkey” renovated homes with low down payments, she said, but they have performed well on their mortgage obligations. “Obviously we have concerns about flipping in general,” Bott said, but FHA has seen none of the fraud problems, defaults and re-foreclosures that cost the agency millions in insurance payouts in earlier years. The challenge for first-time buyers, she added, “is that they often don’t have the money to do repairs — even replacing the carpet can be a hardship. So when you can bring in investors” who will do the renovations before resale, “it makes a huge difference.” E-mail Ken Harney’s at kenharney@earthlink.net. WASHINGTON POST WRITERS GROUP

DEVICE HELPS KEEP HEAT IN A new device is designed to prevent heat from escaping in winter through turbine attic vents. The Turbine Boss is a louvered damper that fits inside the vent assembly and closes automatically when the temperature drops to 40 degrees. That slows the loss of heated air that can be sucked from living spaces into the attic through little cracks and openings on a windy day. Inventor Tom Clark said the device can reduce winter heat loss by 80 percent. An adjustable stop keeps the louvers from closing completely, so moisture can still escape, he said. The damper opens when the temperature reaches 80 degrees, allowing the vent to exhaust hot air in summer. The Turbine Boss can be ordered for $29.95 plus shipping at www.TurbineBoss .com.

Turner: Face-to-face contact vital FROM PAGE 1F

The show “provides an opportunity to talk faceto-face with business owners and experts to compare and discuss pricing structure, get expert advice and see and touch their products,” said Jessica Boweak, show manager with Cleveland, Ohio,-based MarketPlace Events, which produces 30 home shows. Boweak said the Home Improvement Research Institute, based in Tampa, Fla., found that 57 percent of homeowners surveyed thought face-to-face marketing was “the most important source of home improvement information.” “The show allows people to experience new products and trends by exploring full-size landscapes, walking through interior design features and examining the latest environmentally friendly home products,” she said. “The one-on-one contact and discussion is important when you are considering a home renovation project. It’s a great way to get all of your questions answered in one location.” Attendance has ranged between 29,500 and 35,050 the past five years, Boweak said, and has trended upward. Turner said now is the time for builders to try new ideas — and for him, the home and garden show is a new approach befitting a change in Turner & Son’s emphasis. “We’re in a different time than we were even a couple of years ago,” he said, referring to the construction slowdown that hit here right behind the national housing crash and onset of recession in 2008. Some builders didn’t make it. Some developers got caught with lots that had to go to the bank. Meanwhile, Turner & Son watched other builders, “solid guys, smart business people,” to see “how they’ve changed things,” he said. The company wants to do more building for people who already own a little land, rather than developing neighborhoods. It’s a “scattered-site business

model,” he said, rather than constructing a line of houses on a line of lots in a new neighborhood. “The scattered-site business model is very attractive to us. We’re good at building houses,” he said, and not so interested in developing land or dealing much with buyer financing. Right now, Turner & Son builds about 30 houses a year, from 1,800 square feet to 3,200 square feet, about one-third of them on

acreages already in the hands of the homebuyer. The company is one of the few building companies to market by the square foot: $56 per square foot “on your land.” Turner & Son also has homes for sale in the Silverhawk addition in northwest Oklahoma City and Hidden Prairie in Edmond. In 2009, the company introduced its “Smart Living” line of homes, which Turner said cost up to $30 per square foot less than

the going rate because some parts of the houses are delivered to the job site prebuilt. Turner, an engineer before entering the homebuilding business, said the company is moving from on-site, stick-built construction to using pre-engineered construction systems because of better quality. Floor trusses, wall systems and roof systems are built to specifications, then assembled on site.

I even flew to New York to attend my cousin Justin’s wedding to Ashley Graham, a gorgeous plus-sized Ford model. Very few decorations were needed for this intimate wedding because they used the backdrop of the Scottadito Osteria Toscana restaurant with its Tuscan–inspired decor.

for a peaceful, spiritual wedding. It becomes a bit more challenging when you’re planning a wedding or a

shower to be held in your home. You have to accommodate a number of guests and still find places to incorporate those

unique and memorable decorations while staying true to the colors and personality of the brideto-be without turning

your home upside down. Another issue is arranging the furniture to accommodate, in this case more than 50 shower attendees, while allowing them to move through the space and enjoy the festivities without having any major traffic issues. One of my favorite things to do when designing a space for someone is to incorporate their photographs, special treasures and family history into the event. Anyone can go to a party store and order tablecloths and candelabras, but taking the time to personalize an event will leave a lasting impression on the honoree. Here are a few tips I used for a friend’s wedding shower: To keep things secret I pulled a few of her favorite photos off Facebook and embellished them with phrases and then framed them and put them on display for everyone to share in the

moment. Create a show stopper that will become a photo opportunity. I chose a wire dress form and used my old wedding slip and beautiful shimmering fabric along with crystal pins, ribbon and a white and crystal flower to enhance the waist line. It took only minutes to put together. Purple and green tulle and ribbons draped the staircase. I used flower petals, a wrought-iron pedestal and a number of decorative boxes placed around the house, and filled them with flowers and party favors to incorporate all of the colors without competing with the homeowner’s decor. The food, invitations and drinks were all a part of the experience. Now go out and create your own unique comfort zone!

Forecast sees Smaller homebuilders dominate industry job growth › lifting housing market in 2011 › FROM STAFF REPORTS

BY ALEX VEIGA AP Real Estate Writer

ORLANDO, Fla. — The housing market gradually could begin to emerge from its doldrums this year, industry experts said, but their forecast depends on a steady ramp-up in hiring and for the jobless rate to get no worse than it is right now. And even if their outlook proves true, a full housing recovery is still more than two years away. The forecast delivered at the International Builders Show in Orlando sees U.S. economic growth sharply lifting home sales and residential construction over the next two years. Many homebuilders, however, remain unconvinced that a recovery is brewing this year. Most, like Lennar Corp., at best see the market not getting any worse. Still, forecasts by David Crowe, chief economist for the National Association of Home Builders, and Freddie Mac Chief Economist Frank Nothaft were cautiously optimistic. Crowe’s forecast hinges on unemployment getting no worse than 9.4 percent and employment growth accelerating to a pace of 200,000 jobs a month by the end of 2012. “Home sales are going to struggle, but they will follow employment,” Crowe said. “That’s clearly the trigger: A better employment market giving people the comfort that they can go forward with a major purchase like a home.”

High unemployment, tighter bank lending standards and uncertainty about home prices have kept many people from buying homes, despite low mortgage rates and home prices that have fallen by more than half in some markets since the peak of the housing boom. The job market and unemployment rate need to improve before housing can fully recover. Crowe’s forecast calls for the unemployment rate this year to go no higher than 9.4 percent, where it stood last month. He said he also expects the economy to add jobs at an increasing clip, eventually hitting 200,000 a month by the end of next year — about double the number of jobs added by the economy last month. More jobs should help release some of the pentup demand for homes squelched in recent years as would-be homebuyers and renters held off buying a home. And it should stoke demand and prompt builders to step up construction to keep up, Crowe said. Single-family home construction, a bellwether for the housing market and the economy, will rise 21 percent to 575,000 this year and climb to 860,000 in 2012, Crowe said. Nothaft also sees home construction rising about 20 percent. “It’s still far, far below levels we had seen prior to the downturn in the housing industry, but at least we’re moving in the right direction,” Nothaft said.

Small homebuilding companies are the mainstay of the nation’s housing industry, including a sizable number of self-employed mom-and-pop operations, according to a new study by economists at the National Association of Home Builders. “Small businesses have always been the predominant force in housing, and they lend this industry its economic vitality,” said Bob Jones, association chairman and a builder from Bloomfield Hills, Mich. “We are seeing market conditions returning to normal in many parts of the country after a long, hard downturn, and these companies have the agility to move quickly and start leading the economy forward. But first they need access to financing to build, which remains scarce during this critical phase of the recovery.” The study noted that the small builders and tradesmen who produce the majority of the nation’s new

homes “compete in a fierce marketplace that challenges their economic survival.” “A much higher share of small businesses both enter and fail in the residential construction industry when compared to all U.S. firms,” according to the report. “The residential construction industry is very dynamic, and a large number of firms enter the industry each year, and a large number exit each year. With few barriers of entry, startup builders can launch their business with a single new home.” Most homebuilders and remodelers are small businesses, “further facilitating movement into the industry when opportunities improve, and exiting either because of business failure or life-cycle decisions.” The report also looks at the Census Bureau’s Economic Census, which provides information on the size of businesses in various industries. Conducted every five years, the most recent census is based on business activity that occurred in 2007. Among the

data that provides a profile of the housing industry as of 2007: Slightly more than 65 percent of all homebuilding establishments had annual receipts below $1 million. Almost 31 percent generated between $1 million and $10 million, and 4.1 percent had more than $10 million. In 2007, 41,483 new single-family general contractors (who build on the owner’s land) did less than $1 million in business, about a 70 percent share of the 59,679 businesses in this group. Although multifamily general contractors tend to be somewhat larger, 42 percent of them also recorded less than $1 million in yearly sales or receipts. About 60 percent of the 35,378 “operative builders” (who own the land upon which they build) did less than $1 million in business. Eightyfour percent of 73,888 residential remodelers and 61 percent of 6,462 land developers saw less than $1 million. Some 25 percent of

$89.3 billion in total construction value delivered by single-family general contractors in 2007 was subcontracted out. Subcontracting amounted to half of $34.6 billion worth of construction among multifamily general contractors, 22 percent of $180.1 billion for operative builders and 23 percent of the $52.1 billion for residential remodelers. Housing is also providing more opportunities for Hispanic businesses than U.S. industries overall, the study found. The 2007 Survey of Business Owners recently reported that in 8.3 percent of a total 27 million businesses — 2.3 million — at least 51 percent of the stock or equity was Hispanicowned. The Hispanic share for the construction industry (both residential and nonresidential) was higher — at 10.0 percent, or 340,766 out of 3.4 million construction firms.

Insulation upgrades can reduce energy use One of the easiest and most cost-effective energy upgrades you can make to your home is to improve the level of insulation in your attic. Upgraded attic insulation makes your home easier and less expensive to heat — and to cool next summer — and makes for a more comfortable living environment. Depending on what you have now, an insulation upgrade may be a do-ityourself project, or it may be one that you want to leave to the pros. Some utility companies have programs in place with rebates or low-interest loans to help with energy upgrades, so you’ll want to check with them as well before you get started.

How much is enough? How much insulation you need is always a good question. The easy answer is “as much as you can get,” but actually there’s a point where continuing to add more insulation really won’t pay you back much additional dividends. For example, if you have R-19 in your attic, doubling it to R-38 will be a huge improvement. But doubling R-38 to R-76 won’t be nearly as effective. The R-values for new homes are set by the building codes, so that’s a good place to start. Many areas have established R-38 as a minimum for attics, and some colder areas have increased that to R-49. The further your insulation is below what the codes require, the more you’ll benefit from the upgrade.

What’s up there now? How much you’ll benefit from upgrading your insulation depends on what’s in

Paul Bianchina HANDY @ HOME the attic now. So you’ll want to start with a trip into the attic to determine what kind of insulation you have, and also to measure its average depth. Here are the four most common types of attic insulation: Loose-fill fiberglass: This is probably the most common, and will be fluffy strands or cubes of pink, white or yellow material. It has an average R-value of 2.5 per inch, so if your measurements show that you have about 6 inches of the stuff, you have an Rvalue of approximately 15. Fiberglass batts: This is the same material, but it’s woven into thick mats instead of lying loose. It’s typically lying between the joists, but it may be on top of the joists as well. Batts have an average R-value of 3.2 per inch, so your same 6 inches would give you an R-value closer to 19. Mineral wool: This is another loose fill material, although it’s also made into batts as well. It’s gray, and will appear thicker and more fibrous then fiberglass. The average R-value is about 2.8 per inch, so 6 inches would have an Rvalue of around 17. Cellulose: This is essentially a recycled paper material, with other additives. It’s a light to medium gray, and is a loose fill but not as fluffy as fiberglass. It has a distinct “ground cardboard” look, and averages 3.7 per inch in R-value. Six inches of this mate-

Buyer beware: Foreclosures are sold ‘as-is’ DEAR BARRY: I purchased a foreclosed home from a bank about four months ago. Since moving in, I’ve found many defects that were never disclosed. For example, the foundation has settlement cracks, the basement becomes flooded during wet weather, some of the upstairs walls look wavy, and some of the electrical switches have no apparent function. No one disclosed any of these problems when I was in escrow, not the bank, not my real estate agent. Who can I hold responsible for repairing this mess? Nita DEAR NITA: When you buy a foreclosed home, the sale is strictly as-is. Foreclosed properties are owned by banks or mortgage companies. The people at those institutions never see the houses they are selling. They have no idea what might be wrong with these homes. To them, each property is just an address in a long list of other foreclosed addresses. Each one is a faceless financial liability to be removed, as soon as possible, from the corporate books. Real estate agents also have little knowledge of the defects in these properties. They know a little more than the people at the bank because they get a firsthand look, but they lack the expertise needed to evaluate property defects. A good agent, however, will arrange for buyers to hire a qualified home inspector. Agents who fail to recommend home inspections to their buyers subject themselves to high levels of financial liability. If you did not hire a home inspector, either you or your agent made a grave error. People who buy foreclosed homes often forego a home inspection, simply because they cannot ask the seller to pay for repairs. This is a faulty decision because the primary purpose

Barry Stone INSPECTOR’S IN THE HOUSE

of a home inspection is not to assemble a repair list for the seller. It is to gain a comprehensive knowledge of the property you are buying. If you have not already had a home inspection, now is the time to find a reputable inspector. DEAR BARRY: We listed our home for sale and filled out the disclosure forms provided by our agent. We received a purchase offer and the buyers hired a home inspector, but the sale did not go through. Since then, we have repaired every defect listed in the inspection report. Now that these problems are repaired, do we have to disclose the inspection report to future buyers? Maurie DEAR MAURIE: Your obligation is to disclose every condition that could be of concern to buyers. If the former defects have been repaired, disclosure may no longer be required. However, we live in a litigious society. To avoid getting wet, it is advisable to err on the side of caution. So let’s consider the following approach: Ask the home inspector to reinspect the items that were repaired. He can then write an addendum to the original inspection report, indicating that those defects have been corrected. Then you can give the report and the addendum to buyers. This will surpass the disclosure performance of most sellers and will help to solidify the next deal on your home. To write to Barry Stone, go to www.housedetective.com. ACCESS MEDIA GROUP

rial would give you an overall R-value of about 22.

What type to install? What type of insulation you’ll want to use for the upgrade depends on a couple of things, including the costs in your area and whether you want to do the work yourself. For attics, blown-in insulation works best. It’s easy to install, covers everything to a uniform depth, and is cost-effective. If you want to do the work yourself, both fiberglass and cellulose can be blown in using a blower that you can rent. Many home centers and other insulation retailers have the blowers available, and they’re sometimes loaned free of charge with a minimum insulation purchase. Either of these types of insulation produces a lot of dust as they’re being blown, so you’ll want to wear a respirator, as well as some eye protection. For a complete list of safety gear, safety precautions and installation tips, refer to the manufacturer’s specific instructions. The other alternative is fiberglass or mineral wool batts, which come in standard widths and thicknesses. These work best for attics that don’t have any insulation at all, since you can lay the batts between the joists. If there’s already batt insulation in place, you can install a second layer over the first. Use unfaced batts only, so that you don’t create a double vapor barrier and trap moisture between the layers of batts. Also, install the new layer perpendicularly over the original layer, for better coverage over any gaps and cold spots.

Safety first! You need to keep the insulation away from anything that produces heat, such as fireplace chimneys, woodstove flues and exhaust fans. Recessed light fixtures can only be covered if they’re specifically rated for that purpose. To keep the insulation away, use sheet metal to construct a dam, creating a 1to 3-inch air space as per the insulation or fixture manufacturer’s recommendations. It’s also important that you don’t do anything to block the ventilation in your attic, so you also need to install vent baffles to keep the insulation from sloughing down over soffit vents. These can be wood or cardboard, attached to the face of the rafters at each of the vents to keep the air flow clear. Finally, to prevent moisture buildups that can damage wood framing and lead to mold growth — in addition to robbing R-val-

ue from that new insulation — be sure all exhaust fans are vented completely to the outside of the attic.

Trade group predicts housing rebound BY STEVE KERCH McClatchy-Tribune Information Services

ORLANDO, Fla. — Housing will rebound moderately in 2011, economists at the International Building Show here predicted, and should gain even more steam in 2012. But the recovery in home building and home sales will vary widely from one part of the country to another, with the states that had the most success during the boom times of the past decade being the last to come back from their historic bust, according to an analysis from the Portland Cement Association, a national trade group. “The headwinds are still facing us in housing. They are less than they were, but they are still in place,” said Edward Sullivan, chief economist for the group. He examined data on mortgage delinquencies, unemployment rates and home-price declines to create a state-by-state recovery prediction. The housing markets that still face the hardest going, led by Nevada, account for more than 50 percent of the U.S. housing market, Sullivan pointed out, while those that will recover the fastest make up only 20 percent. That means the better times in those states won’t do much to lift overall national housing numbers. Here are the five states where housing is predicted to recover the quickest: 1. North Dakota: North Dakota has the lowest mortgage delinquency rate of any state, just 0.9 percent. It also has shown the best homeprice performance of any state, with values up 7.2 percent from the peak of everyone else’s boom in 2005, to what was a trough for everybody else in 2010. Only Texas, Vermont and

In 2009, only 16 percent of all RE/MAX Affiliates earned this prestigious award. O’Toole has worked in real estate for more than 20 years, mostly in Oklahoma City and Edmond.

Stacie Cosgrove-Rhodes

Churchill-Brown adds to office EDMOND — Stacie Cosgrove-Rhodes has joined Churchill-Brown & Associates Realtors’ Edmond office, 201 N Bryant Ave. She is a lifelong resident of the Oklahoma City metro area. She holds an associate degree in dental assisting and is employed as a dental office treatment coordinator.

South Dakota also reported gains over that time. The category the state did not lead was unemployment, which at 7.5 percent was just about double that of its southern neighbor South Dakota, which at 3.7 percent had the lowest rate. 2. South Dakota: In addition to its low unemployment number, South Dakota also sports the second-lowest mortgage delinquency rate at 1.5 percent. And the state also managed to steer clear of the home-price cliff, with prices having risen 0.5 percent from 2005 to 2010. 3. Iowa: The Hawkeye State managed to keep its home prices nearly level over the worst five years in history for everyone else, with prices falling just 0.4 percent. Mortgage delinquencies are only 2.2 percent of outstanding loans in the state, and the unemployment rate of 6.8 percent is still well below the national average. 4. Nebraska: At 4.4 percent, Cornhuskers enjoy the secondlowest unemployment rate in the nation. Just 2 percent of outstanding mortgages are delinquent, and home prices fell only 3.5 percent from peak to trough, while the average

›

for the country was a 20percent drop. 5. Oklahoma: Home prices in the Sooner State fell just 2.3 percent from peak to trough and mortgage delinquencies are 2.9 percent. Unemployment is 6.9 percent. If you see a pattern in those five states, you’re right. “The central portion of the country generally will recover first,” Sullivan said. Add Kansas, Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas to that bunch. Other states that fall into the early-recovery category include Vermont, Hawaii, Montana, Wyoming, New Mexico, Colorado and New Hampshire. On the opposite end of the spectrum, here are the five states where the housing recovery is expected to be a lot longer in the making: 1. Nevada: The poster child for the housing boom was Las Vegas, but now it’s lights out on Glitter Gulch. The state has the highest mortgage delinquency rate in the country at 8.3 percent, the highest unemployment rate at 14.4 percent and has suffered the biggest peaktrough home-price declines of any area, a 56.4percent tumble.

›

2. Michigan: Not a state that enjoyed the boom, but one really feeling the bust. It has the second-highest unemployment rate in the nation at 13.1 percent and mortgage delinquencies hit 5.1percent of outstanding loans. Home prices have also fallen hard, 31.7 percent from the peak. 3. California: The second-highest

›

mortgage delinquency rate in the country at 6 percent, the third-worst unemployment rate at 12.4 percent and home-price declines of 40.8 percent put the Golden State on a long path to health. 4. Florida: Tying California with a 6 percent mortgage delinquency rate but beating its cross-country rival with a home-price decline of

›

46.9 percent, Florida also won’t be doing well anytime soon. An unemployment rate of 11.7 percent doesn’t help. 5. Rhode Island: Unemployment trips up Rhode Island, which ties for the fourth-highest rate in the country at 11.7 percent. Home-price declines were 25.6 percent, and 4.9 percent of mortgages are delinquent.

feel if asked to take on the role of regular baby sitter for young children? One problem of making a major commitment to care for the grandkids is that this could cost you time and energy that might otherwise go toward fulfilling your retirement plans. Another risk, though uncommon, is that your grown children may be less than thrilled at having you live nearby. To be certain they’re OK with the idea, Berard recommends you have a candid conversation with them before deciding to move nearby. Explore a retirement “paradise” to see if you’d truly like it. Glossy magazines and books often tout the idea of retirees moving to resort areas or faraway countries where the scenery is said to be magnificent, the prices low and the climate favorable. Despite all the hype surrounding such utopian retirement settings, many who choose them find them less than satisfactory, said Eric Tyson, coauthor of “Home Buying for Dummies.” Tyson said retirees living in an isolated resort area often feel disconnected from the everyday lives of friends and family members, even if they come by on vacation from time to time. He said the best way to

›

determine if a resort community would be right for you is to visit on a trial basis before committing to buy a home there. Do a reality check on your finances. Are you short on retirement savings and believe you’ll need to sell your big home and downsize to a lower-cost community to make ends meet in the future? In that case, Berard urges you to plot a strategy with a trusted financial adviser or accountant before making any move. Berard recommends you give serious thought to the level of mortgage debt you’re willing to carry into retirement. For most people, a comfortable retirement means freedom from large house payments. “Regardless of where you choose to live or the house you choose to buy, seek to own it free and clear if that’s at all possible,” he said. Don’t rule out remaining in the area where you now live. Berard has helped retirees sort through their housing options for more than 20 years, and experience has taught him that most retirees do best when they live within a 30-minute drive of their former home.

California defies national foreclosure trend in 2010 BY MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE INFORMATION SERVICES

LOS ANGELES — Fewer Californians grappled with foreclosure last year, bucking a national trend and giving homeowners fresh hope that state’s housing market could be on the mend. The 14 percent drop in foreclosure activity contrasted with a 2 percent rise nationally, according to data tracking business RealtyTrac. Analysts noted that California’s housing market was among the first to falter and may now be among the first to recover. Home prices here hit bottom in April 2009 and gradually have risen since. “There are a lot of risks out there, but I think the trend is improvement — not dramatic, but substantial,” said Kenneth Rosen, a professor at the University of California, Berkeley’s Haas School of Business. But Rosen and other observers caution that the state’s high unemployment rate of 12.4 percent and weak demand for housing still are concerns. Another potential trouble spot: A large number of adjustable-rate mortgages are scheduled to reset to higher rates in coming months, said Rick Sharga, senior vice president with RealtyTrac. That could lead to another uptick in foreclosures if borrowers cannot make the higher payments or decide that they are throwing good money after bad. “You have the three-headed monster of high unemployment, a weak economy and problem loans,” said Sharga, who thinks that California foreclosures in 2011 could surpass the number last year, and possibly the peak year of 2009. More than a half-million California homes were involved in some stage of foreclosure last year, including notices of default as well as bank repossessions, according to numbers that were to be released by RealtyTrac. Among those filings, 173,175 represented homes retaken by lenders, a 13 percent drop from a year ago. Nationwide, a record 2.9 million homes were in foreclosure, up 2 percent from 2009.
