2013 Spring Market Checklist

Please Call The Phone Number On The Ad

a guide for both buyers and sellers

2

We are heading into the New Year and already the real estate market is getting active. People are making plans for the year and many are thinking about moving. Hopefully, those with homes to sell are carefully considering what they have to do to get their home sold. Here’s a handy check list for both buyers and sellers. Use it as a guide to prepare a home for sale and as a buyer’s checklist of what to look for!

• Stop being emotional about your home. Try to see it as a buyer would see it. As with any product offered for sale, make sure it is ready to be marketed! If the product is not ready, no matter how it is promoted, it won’t sell or will have to be sold at a deep discount.

• Get rid of items that have not been used in the last year. Twice a year I review things in my home, from kitchen to closets. If I have not used it in one year it goes, NO MATTER WHAT! Think about it, short of family heirlooms, quality jewelry, silver, china or crystal, if it has not been used in a year it is highly unlikely you will ever use it! Do yourself a favor and donate these items to a charity that can resell it.

• Rent a POD or storage unit. This is the place you will put all non-essential items after you de-clutter and depersonalize your home.

• De-clutter. Knick knacks, family photos, books spilling from bookshelves, among other things should be boxed up in preparation for your move. The full boxes placed out of sight. Non-essential kitchen appliances should be housed in cupboards. Your kitchen counters should be cleaned and look empty, this gives the appearance of lots of counter space.

Small items used daily should be put out of sight, like hairbrushes, make-up on a vanity in the bath, or tools on counters or shelves not in the tool/workshop.

• Remove personal items. Family photographs, while meaningful to you,

are just a distraction to buyers. You want them looking at the house, not your personal history through photos. Make your home a blank palette that a buyer can imagine their own things in. They need to envision living there in order to pull the trigger to buy it!

• Empty & organize closets and cupboards. Remove all non-essential items. Organize what is left in an orderly manner.

This makes the space look more expansive. It also makes you appear to be a person who takes care of their belongings… a buyer will translate this to mean you also take care of your house!

• Decide what pieces of furniture can be stored, sold or given away. A home shows better with less furniture. Make sure they are classic or in current style.

If you have older furniture, try to minimize shabbiness with quality bedspreads, couch covers, decorative pillows or any other means. I have had buyers get so fixated on the furniture and how out of date it was that they began to view the home as out of date too. Arrange the furniture in an attractive manner that shows off the rooms qualities, for instance, if you have a picture window place something by it that draws the eye to the window.

• Evaluate your home with a ruthless eye! Patch all the nail holes, in fact, always pull all picture hooks out of the wall and patch those holes. Leaving holes is lazy and it is a rare buyer who will want

to put their pictures up in the exact same place. They will discount for the potential patch work they have to do. How rough are your floors? Do you have hardwoods that no longer shine? Is your kitchen tile worn or cracked? Is your carpet thread bare in spots, or permanently stained?

Are the faucets leaking? Are the faucet handles intact and not discolored in anyway? Are your cupboard handles dated? Light fixtures dated, might they need replacing? Do all cabinet drawers line up properly? Cabinet doors stay shut? Fix and repair everything that you can afford to or you may pay later at the closing table. Consider your homes color scheme. If your colors are extra bold, or not in style (pastel colors anyone?), you need to change them.

One of the biggest turn-offs for buyers is thinking they have to paint a home before moving into it. You are not doing them a favor by saying: “Let them paint it… that way they can choose their own colors!”

This never flies and can actually be the difference between selling quickly or lingering on the market and selling at steep discount later. Lastly, light bulbs! Make sure all your light bulbs are in working order. If the buyers try to turn a light on and it does not work, they do not think the light bulb is dead, they immediately think “electrical problems”.

• Clean, clean and then clean some more! No dust bunnies allowed! Your surfaces should sparkle. This includes windows, shelves, counter tops, cabinet

“Use it as a guide to prepare a home for sale and as a buyer’s checklist of what to look for!”

doors, stoves, refrigerators, light fixtures, ceiling fans, mirrors, furniture, bedding, tubs and showers. Polish what can be polished to a shine. Vacuum daily in case there is an opportunity for a last minute showing. Caulk tubs, sinks and showers.

Check the curtains, clean them if they are dusty, or at the very least, see to it that they are attractively arranged. DO NOT USE SHEETS FOR CURTAINS! If you do, this screams poor, which translates into “too poor to do basic maintenance” on this home.

• Check for odors. Ask a close friend for help here. You may not smell them since you live there. Your friend or even Realtor, will be happy to find odors for you if asked. Once you identify where they are you have to identify the source and take care of it. Nothing gets potential buyers out of a house faster than foul odors.

• Do Preventive House Inspections.

Some sellers are opting to have their homes inspected by licensed inspectors prior to selling. This helps a great deal. For one reason, you are in control of who the inspector will be. There will be no surprises or renegotiations after an inspection by the buyer. Two, you are aware of the problems that an inspector will bring up during the standard home inspection and you can decide what to do about the problem. You can fix it or prepare to offer a concession for it. Have your fireplace & furnace inspected. This is a biggie for the same reasons I recommend a home inspection.

• Review. Think you’re finished getting the inside ready? Not so fast. Go through the home with a very honest friend or Realtor and ask them to see if you missed anything. A fresh eye helps, always! If they spot something, don’t argue or justify the issue. Consider it carefully before deciding whether you are going to act on it or not. continued on page 4

• Head Outdoors. Stand in front of the house. What is the first thing you see? Usually it is the front door. How attractive is it? Does it need paint? Make sure it is in tip top shape, since it will leave an impression - good or bad, with the buyer. Make it a good one. Sometimes a neglected door leaves such a bad impression the buyer is immediately predisposed to not like the house, even if it fits their bill in every other way. How is the paint job on your home? If it needs attention, if you can afford to do so, take care of it, whether touch up or full paint job. If the exterior is dirty, power-wash

it. If you don’t you will pay at the clos-

ing table and/or take much longer to sell your home. Is the window trim in good shape? Nicely painted? Make sure the window treatments hang properly when standing outside. If not, that screams neglect or carelessness towards your home.

Small things can make all the difference!

Place a decorative item on the door or near it, to make a welcoming impression.

Mow the lawn and trim your hedges and bushes. Plant flowers when the season permits. Don’t allow dog poop or children’s toys to litter the front or back yard.

Make sure the garage door is in good

shape and works. If selling during winter, Look hard and see where there is room

make sure the walk, driveway and exterior stairs are cleared of snow. If you will be out of town hire someone to do so.

Lastly, make sure potential buyers can see your house number!

The homes that sell the fastest are the homes that look well cared for and reasonably priced. This is a winning combination for a seller. Skimping in either category means your home will not move quickly or at the price you might desire.

Look at your home as if you are a stranger to it, after you have done everything you think was needed to prepare the house.

for improvement. Listen to your agent if they point something out. They are not trying to hurt your feelings, they want the home sold as fast as you do!

The local Ronald McDonald House is hosting a large number families with children who have siblings in the hospital. To give the kids something to do, the staff has created a project to help make them feel good about themselves and raise money for the house at the same time. They are asking anyone who has holiday cards that they would normally throw out to donate them. The kids will recycle them and make gift cards which will be sold at their annual fund raiser sale in the fall.

Donated cards can be dropped off at any Nothnagle office from now through the end of January with distribution to the Ronald McDonald House in February.

From The Ground Up

Remodeling Projects

how much can you recover when you resell?

Carmen Santora, Executive Director of the Better Contractors Bureau in an effort to help homeowners contemplating a major remodeling project and who are concerned if the cost invested would be recouped should they decide to sell their home offers the following information.

His analysis is based on a national average “cost vs. value” survey and condensed to specifically relate to our local area.

The resale value depends on a lot of variables, such as the state of the housing industry and local market conditions in particular at the time of sale. A lot of homeowners are concerned that their remodeling investment might price their home out of the neighborhood averages.

This should only be taken into account if you think that you may be selling your home in the near future.

If a homeowner has small children and is thinking of adding extra bedrooms or an additional bathroom they may want to think of the advantages of staying where they are. If the schools are great, they live close to their workplace and shopping and are in an area of lower taxes or other personal conveniences, then they shouldn’t worry about pricing themselves over their neighborhood averages, especially if they intend to stay there for many years.

However, if the homeowners know

they will be staying where they are for only a short time then a major remodeling would be foolish. Things like energy efficient updates such as new replacement windows, high efficiency furnace, roofing or siding, kitchen or bath updates would add to their comfort and help to sell the house faster and save them money while they still remain in the home.

Major expenditures for a new kitchen and bath can run into thousands of dollars and unless money doesn’t matter or you don’t care about resale values then by all means go for it.

It’s important to know that there are a variety of variables that can effect both the cost of the remodeling and the resale of the home such as the size of the remodeling company estimating the project and the values of the properties in the surrounding neighborhoods.

Below are some area examples of the

cost of what some remodeling projects can cost and what could be recouped if you sell your house. The numbers presented here should only serve as guidelines when contemplating the potential return on your investment for a particular remodeling project.

For more information or a more precise explanation of what the projects mentioned above include call the Better C ont ractors Bureau at 3383600.

R e c ove r y costs for home improvement projects remain high and have been accelerating even though the growth in spending on home improvements has declined nationally over the last few years. As the economy improves so will spending on home improvements.

Lower priced projects during a sluggish economy are typical and usually only what is needed to keep a home energy efficient or make essential repairs.

Higher priced projects tend to be more discretionary, and usually homeowners wait for the economy to improve before undertaking these expenditures.

Carmen Santora, says that he believes that within the five county area that the BCB services, the average cost recouped for home improvements probably falls lower than the national average and is somewhere around 75% or less range.

The Better Contractors Bureau is a non-profit consumer protection agency that was formed in 1974. Its goals are to “PROTECT & INFORM” the consumer and ELIMINATE the unscrupulous contractors in the area. The BCB as it is also known operates in Monroe and the five surrounding counties and has over 400 members. The bureau handles complaints, mediates disputes between the contractor and consumer (not just members) and refers contractor members by way of a FREE Consumer Guide & Membership Directory. For more information you may call 338-3600 or go to the BCB website at www.the-bcb.net.

By Tom Wurzer, P.E. Warren Engineering

Ice Damming a timely reminder

After a relatively warm, mild winter last year, the recent snow accumulations and cold weather have brought back concerns of ice damming. Roof leaks and interior water damage tend to occur as a result this seasonal problem.

The combination of cold temperatures and regular snowfall are Mother Nature's ingredients for ice damming. A lack of insulation, poor attic ventilation, shallowpitched roofs, and complicated roof lines (many valleys) are contributors to the icicles that dangle from our homes. Together, these factors can lead to many home repair headaches from ice and leaks.

Ice damming is the accumulation of ice on the cold overhangs of roofs. The lump of ice that forms prevents additional water (i.e. melted snow) from draining off the roof. It is the resulting puddle that forms between the ice lump and the roof that can cause leaks into attic space and even interior ceilings and walls.

Ice damming can be reduced or prevented with good attic insulation and ventilation to keep the roof cold. Insulation prevents heat from escaping into the attic and ventilation removes any heat that does make it up there. However, making improvements to insulation and ventilation can be impractical once the winter has begun.

Modern roofing standards require an ice and water barrier under the edges of our asphalt shingle roofs. This barrier can prevent leaks from ice damming, but it must be installed when the roof is installed.

Electric heating cables can be installed and turned on before the snow falls to effectively prevent ice damming leaks. The heating cables

the roof. This should be avoided. Sometimes solutions of warm salt water or similar snowmelting solutions will be used to melt ice to make a path for water to get off of the roof.

These should only be used as a last resort, since they can sometimes damage building materials and actually result in more ice when the water re-freezes.

Preventing ice damming is ideally be accomplished with good insulation and proper attic ventilation, along with proper roofing materials, including ice and water barrier.

However, electric heating cables and snow rakes (roof rakes) are things that can be used to more directly control the problem until better long-term preventive measures can be put in place. Ice damming can be troublesome and frustrating with our "normal" winter weather.

Making dreams come true.

run in a zig-zag pattern on the roof edge and through the gutters and downspouts to maintain a path for water (melting snow) to get off of the roof. Obviously, there is a cost associated with the electricity to operate these cables.

The use of a "roof rake" or "snow rake" can be very effective in preventing ice damming.

After a snowfall, the homeowner must rake snow off of the edge of the roof with this plastic blade on the end of a long aluminum pole.

Even just a few feet of snow raking up away from the roof edge will often be effective to keep the roof overhang clear of lumps of ice.

Many homeowners will chip snow and ice off of the roof with a sharp shovel and damage

• “Don’t be so fascinated by your thoughts and feelings. Whatever you think and feel continue to take the actions that you have planned.”

• “The System is the Goal. Keep your commitment to the System.”

• “Schedule a “Daily System Time” every working weekday for just 30 minutes and take action on just one of your daily and weekly systems during that time.”

• “Your success is more dependent on the consistency of your systems than anything else.”

There are many other concepts inserted in the plan to keep it fun, interesting, and to let you know that you are normal. Setbacks are normal. Self criticism is normal.

Lack of focus and so many other frustrations are normal. When you take them too seriously they are debilitating. They can even lead to mild depression. When you treat them as normal you can address them quickly and minimize or eliminate their impact on you.

Look at your 2013 Business Plan. Have you started it? Have you finished it? You’re your plan motivate you to action? Does it motivate you to use it as your guide throughout the year?

Would you find it valuable if it did?

If you find your plan or planning lacking, drop in on our free live coaching webinars.

The free live webinars are every Monday at 8:15 Eastern or listen to the recording at www.FreeCoachingWebinars.com at 8:15 in your time zone. We call them your 1st 15 @ 8:15; your first 15 minutes of the day at 8:15 a.m. Or listen to the recording at www.FreeCoachingWebinars.com On these webinars, throughout the year we continuously remind and reinforce the business, personal and psychological systems that ensure your success with your Business Plan, your career, and we hope that your business success spreads over into the rest of your life.

Fi U na SD nc A in g!

• Attitude and Mindset: These critical skills are often ignored in an Agent’s Business plan. Establish methods and practices to create deep motivation and your ability to motivate yourself to action at those times when you may want to avoid work.

The inability to motivate yourself to action leads to self criticism that undermines all of your efforts.

• Habits and Systems: Building these is a learned skill. Identify the systems needed to implement all the parts of your plan.

Learn how to create a simple and effective system. Then learn to establish the consistent habits that make your systems and therefore your growth permanent.

• Overall Strategy: This skill is a characteristic of all highly successful people in Real Estate or any endeavor. It is missing for most Real Estate Agents. It is the strategy that ensures that you use your plan all year long. Highly successful people schedule specific time to think and strategize.

Choose just 30 minutes on Friday morning every week for this strategy. At that time, look at your progress toward your measurable goals and toward the accomplishment of your plan.

• Implementation: Begin immediately and plan just 30 minutes each day to work on one of the above strategies. This is not extra time that you need to add to your schedule. It is an organized way to do what you want and need. You find it actually adds productive time to your life. We call “Failproof Implementation.” This simple daily habit ensures that you create the systems you need in a very comfortable way that avoids overwhelm.

Additional Concepts that Ensure Your Success with Your 2013 Business Plan: • “Do the minimum.” Some Agents find this unsettling at first. Experience has shown us that most people set goals that are too high; schedules that are too full; and levels of activity that are unrealistic.

All of which lead to frustration, self-criticism and breakdown. On the other hand when a person does the minimum and does it consistently they build the systems, the habits, self confidence and results that ensure continued success and growth • “You don’t have to get it right. Just get it going. And keep improving it.”

There is a flaw in many Real Estate Agent business plans. The flaw is not apparent and it prevents success. You can know if it is there because of what the Agent does not do with his or her plan. That is, the Agent does not refer to the plan throughout the year. They do not use their plan as their guide all year long. This flaw is also the reason that most Agents don’t finish their plan. If you have seldom or never had an effective Business Plan, you will find more clarity, focus and success with the following strategies.

• Dream List: Begin with a Dream List.

Do this quickly at first and then add to it throughout the year.

• Specific Measurable Time Bounded Goals: Set yearly goals for Sales Volume then translate that to number of sales and listings. There is a specific and very motivating strategy for doing this and many of the strategies below. This writing is not meant to go into that extensive detail.

Contact the author for more information.

• Skills: Evaluate the full set of dozens of skills necessary for success in your Real Estate career. Then choose the priority skills that are clearly your strengths and weaknesses. Finally create actions steps to strengthen, strategize, or delegate your strengths and weaknesses.

• Prospecting and Lead Management: Create a specific prospecting plan that includes the four parts of your lead management. That is, the habit of consistently generating new leads, contacting enough of the leads that you generate to reach your goals, your skill at converting leads into live appointments, and staying in touch with leads that don’t convert immediately • Personal Marketing Plan: This also requires its own part of your plan. Include in your Personal Marketing Plan Internet Marketing, Sphere of Influence efforts, Farming, and Advertising. Be sure to build into your plan, time to look at the results of your marketing to ensure that you receive a 400% to 500% return on your marketing expenditures. Your Personal Marketing Plan includes your work to establish a recognizable personal brand based on your market and your personality. There are extremely cost effective ways to do create your brand.

As I See It

By Lana Torre

Interior Designer, Evergreen Interiors

Organizing Dummy Style

This Christmas past, I received a gift card for one of my favorite shops, Barnes and Noble. After spending two hours deciding what to buy, I was bitten by “Organizing for Dummies.”

As I started to read, I realized that I was not blessed with any organizational skills and that to enjoy better feng shui in my home, I needed to get a move on. So, for this New Year, I am getting organized and am going to share the most important of all organizing ideas from Eileen Roth’s book.

Roth’s main idea is to use the PLACE system.

“P” is for purge, this is totally not my style, I am proud to say that being a keeper is better than being a hoarder.

“L” is for like with like. I am all about that. Being in the design profession, we always display like things together. Whether it is a collection of fishing poles or family photos, displaying them together does look neat and organized, and gives a greater impact.

And at our home all shoes are left by the door.

“A” translates to accessibility. This basically means store the pots and pans near the stove. Already done!

Collect appliance manuals, receipts and warranties and file them in your office. Mine are now stored in a low drawer that I don’t get to too often, so as promised above, to be moved soon.

“C” means contain. Roth says add

dividers to drawers to separate bread knives from paring knives. Every time I open my ‘knife’ drawer, I get stabbed by the meat thermometer.

She adds to transfer all grain products to zipper bags or glass containers. I did most of that years ago. Flour is in a large glass jar as well as sugar, complete with scoops. But cereal is still in boxes, and I like the look, it reminds me of Seinfeld.

“E” is for evaluate. Roth claims that countertops should be free of extras, so you can prep foods, accommodate dirty dishes and serve food all in one contained space. At our home, I now have to move the tea kettle off the stove to use all burners, move the blender so I can get to the food pro-

cessor and sometimes have to move the mail to the kitchen table and then move the mail again to set the table for dinner.

So according to “Organizing for Dummies’, I am right there. Somehow my chaos works for me and my family. So, my New Year’s resolution will be to just sit back and relax and know that whatever it is that I cannot find will be in the junk drawer.
