Sell Your Home

This Winter, Reduce Competition & Stress Stop waiting - go ahead and put your home on the market. Even now, with temperatures dropping and the seasonal bustling, it’s a good time to sell. In fact, Greg Jaeger, vice president at USAA Bank and former real estate agent, says waiting could decrease potential buyers, especially if mortgage rates increase soon and price some out of the market. Delaying a sale also could increase your competition and stress. “Those who sell their homes in the winter can reap financial and emotional benefits since they are not waiting until everyone else is trying to sell,” Jaeger says.

Less Competition Your home has a greater chance of standing out from the crowd in the winter months, December through February. In the summer, you have to compete with other sellers looking to lure buyers expecting deals. To be sure, sales trends are different among colder and warmer states. And summer is often a more ideal time for families with young children to plan moves before school starts. However, you may be overlooking another group of buyers, Jaeger said. “During the summer, buyers look like families. In the winter they look like investors,” he said. Sellers often are able to ask more for their homes in winter, Jaeger said. A study by online brokerage firm Redfin found average sellers earn above their asking price December through March than they do in the summer months. In addition, in winter months a home is on the market for an average of 26 days, compared to 33 days in non-winter seasons, according to Redfin’s data.

newsShorts Less Stress There’s a certain ecosystem to the home buying process, which includes realtors, home inspectors, appraisers, the title company and the bank processing the loan. That ecosystem is tense when activity is the busiest, Jaeger said. In peak buying season, there’s overwhelming demand to process transactions, with potentially an overwhelmed system for processing them. “You can help reduce the typical home buying and selling stress by selling your home during the winter ‘shoulder season’ and working with experts who really understand your needs,” he said.

Renovating to age in place? No one relishes the prospect of having to move out of his or her home due to age-related health, mobility or dexterity issues. Fortunately for people who want to stay put, a range of home improvements can make it easier to remain in your home as you grow older. Targeting key areas like bathrooms and kitchens can improve a house’s long-term livability even on a modest budget, says Lee Saunders, founder of CA-based Adapted Living. “Today, the biggest challenge we have is getting people to understand they don’t have to settle for an industrial or commercial look in order to renovate their homes for aging in place.” Often when people develop mobility or dexterity issues, they find their existing bathrooms are not in a convenient location in the house, or aren’t configured with safety in mind. They may need to add a bathroom in a small space or reconfigure the ones they have. When renovating an existing bath or creating a new bathroom where one did not previously exist, homeowners should keep key considerations in mind.

Multiple light sources can help reduce glare and shadows - two dangerous visual effects in bathrooms, where most home falls occur. Flooring material should be slip-resistant and grab bars are essential in showers, bath tubs and near toilets. Shower heads should be on a slide bar that allows the spray to be raised or lowered depending on the needs and height of the user. Showers and faucets should be controlled by levers, rather than knobs, and all showers should have thermostatic controls to reduce the risk of burns. Whether you’re adding a half bath in a corner of your master bedroom where no bathroom existed before, or replacing a high step-over tub with a roll-in shower, traditional plumbing can be costly - especially in homes with slab foundations and no readily accessible below-floor drainage. Saunders uses the Sanigrind Pro system by Saniflo to minimize the need to break through concrete. The product can handle drainage for a shower, sink and toilet. For more information, visit www.saniflo.com. Kitchens are another high-utility and high-risk area of the home for seniors. Mobility and dexterity challenges can make everyday tasks like cooking and cleaning difficult to achieve in an ordinary kitchen. Focus on improvements to enhance accessibility, such as installing lifts for countertops, cabinets, cooktops and sinks. These electric lifts allow homeowners to adjust the height of key work areas depending on whether they’re sitting or standing while using the spot. Above-floor plumbing can also be useful in kitchen renovations, where homeowners and designers desire a more open floor plan to accommodate wheelchair users. Above-floor plumbing allows you to relocate a sink or create an “island” without the expense of extensively replumbing the entire kitchen, notes Chris Peterson, a regional sales director with Saniflo. To learn more about above-floor plumbing and products that enhance living-in-place renovations, visit www.saniflo.com.

Last Minute Tax Adjustments Could Save You Money With 2015 coming to a close, it might be prudent to consider making adjustments to manage your tax liability. Compare your income now with what you anticipated when you set up your 2015 tax withholding or estimated tax payments. Is the income what you expected? More? Less? If more, do you need to increase your withholding or your estimated payments to ensure you’re not under withheld and subject to penalties? Remember, there’s a withholding safe harbor that allows you to pay either 100 percent of your prior year tax liability or 90 percent of your current year liability to avoid penalties. For those who make more than $150,000, the safe harbor is met when you pay 110 percent of your prior year tax liability or 90 percent of your current-year liability. Note also that if you are making estimated payments, the final payment is due Jan. 15, 2016. Assuming your income for the year is evenly distributed, this should be the fourth of four equal estimated tax payments. If your income is not evenly distributed over the year, then making estimated tax payments is more complex. The tax system is a pay-as-you-go regime and you cannot backload your estimated taxes. Failure to make estimated payments mirroring the timing of your income will result in IRS penalty and interest charges, notwithstanding that you have had the appropriate amount withheld for the full year. Taxpayers with wage income and who have withheld less than they should have for 2015 should consider paying more tax by adjusting withholding immediately. Because any tax paid through employer withholding will be treated as paid evenly throughout the year, you may reduce the amount under withheld in the past by increasing the amount currently withheld. 4

If you are under withheld and neither your spouse nor you works for an employer, then pay the under-withheld portion as soon as possible. Each day you are under withheld adds to IRS-imposed penalties and interest. (BPT)

Four Unexpected Things

You’ll Miss During A

Winter Power Outage According to a recent Ipsos survey, just 4 percent of homeowners surveyed selected heat as the household item they would miss the most during a power outage, compared to more than half (51 percent) who said they would miss their TV the most. This research points out that many homeowners don’t realize the dangers and inconveniences they would face during a power outage. To help homeowners be better prepared for the realities of winter-related power outages, Generac Power Systems compiled a few reminders of unexpected things they’ll be without:

1. Running water. When the heat is out, pipes are more susceptible to freezing. Even if you have an oil-based source of household heating, a power outage will still disrupt service and indoor temperatures will dip. A frozen or burst pipe can halt your access to running water (and could lead to some very expensive home repairs). Opening the faucet will provide relief from the excessive pressure that comes with ice blockage and can prevent a burst pipe.

2. Fast emergency responders and utility companies. Snow, sleet, freezing rain and ice all make for treacherous travel conditions, meaning response from emergency and utility crews will be delayed during winter storms. When power outages are involved, families can quickly find themselves in dangerous situations

with delayed response from these important services. With proper at-home preparation and safety, you can protect your family from needing to call these crews for help in emergency situations.

3. Wireless Internet. Most homeowners forget that when the power goes out, so does their wireless Internet access. With routers down, that means no connection to communicate with loved ones or get important updates about the storm. Cellular service can also be interrupted during outage times, and with no way to charge cell phone batteries, that option is also often limited.

4. Daylight. This one might seem like a no-brainer, but many people forget that daylight hours are short during the winter. Especially when a storm is passing through, homes can get dark and stay dark for the majority of the day. Candles and flashlights work well for short periods of time, but it’s important to rethink backup light options during the winter when darkness is prolonged. The best way to ensure you and your family won’t be without is to create an organized winter preparedness plan that includes a stockpile of food, water and other supplies as well as a source of backup power. Whether from a home standby option that automatically turns on when utility power is interrupted or a portable unit for powering essential items, generators can make all the difference in the safety of your home and family this winter. To learn more about winter preparedness, visit www.generac.com/be-prepared/prepare-forhigh-winter-storms or call (888) GENERAC. (NAPSI) • Every winter, at least one septillion (that’s 1 followed by 24 zeros) snow crystals fall from the sky. • According to the Guinness World Records, on January 28, 1887, a snowflake 15 inches wide and 8 inches thick fell in Fort Keogh, Montana, making it the largest snowflake ever observed. • The average snowflake falls at about 3 mph.

8 Easy Steps To An Organized, Dust-Free Workshop Planning some home improvement projects? Any good DIY project leaves a trail of dust, tools and various scraps around the workshop. While the end-product is often fulfilling, the remaining cleanup never is. However, having 1. Utilize ceiling space. Many projects need all the surface area you can get, so when it comes to storing tools or placing extra extension cords, utilize available space above. It’s a great spot to hang wire baskets to get seldomused tools out of the way, and place hooks for getting extension cords off the floor.

a clean, organized workshop you can easily maintain isn’t impossible. Here are eight workshop cleanup and organization tips to eliminate the dust, grime and clutter that’s there, and prevent the messes yet to come.

4. Include a retractable vinyl window shade. The work table often gets the brunt of the mess from glue spills and paint to dents and dust. Attaching a retractable vinyl window shade to the side of your work table enables you to pull down a protective cover over your workspace when you need it. The best part is, most materials can be easily wiped or scraped off the vinyl when the project is finished, leaving a cleaner, mess-free work table.

2. Choose the right tool. The best way to remove dust is to do so at the source. The Dremel brand’s VRT1 combines a versatile rotary tool with a shop vacuum to cut out the cleanup and clear dust as you work. The tool connects to standard wet/dry vacuum hoses and adapters, and intake ports on the tool itself collect airborne dust and debris. It’s a great asset for a dustless workshop, especially with sanding, engraving and polishing jobs or when working with dusty materials like wood and drywall. To find other Dremel tools for your clean and organized workshop, visit www.Dremel.com.

5. Consolidate with a battery charging station. Misplaced battery packs can delay progress during a project. Avoid the stress and consolidate all of your battery packs into one, central battery charging station. Create a long tray out of wood or metal and place with a dedicated power strip. Use this area as the landing space for all your battery packs, so next time a power tool runs low on juice, you can quickly replace it and keep your projects going.

3. Install magnetic strips. Hand tools, measuring tape and other small items have a way of going rogue while you’re mid-project. Rather than throwing them into a big, cluttered bin, install a few rows of magnetic strips along the wall of your workspace. It’s an easily visible place to store these smaller items that often go missing.

6. Create a garbage station. Running scraps to the garbage, searching for a broom and dustpan, and finding extra garbage bags is a tiring and unwanted step when you’re in the middle of a project. To keep from making multiple trips back and forth to the garbage, create a handy garbage station that corrals

LifeandHomes ■ Capital Region

the broom, garbage container and extra liners in one spot. Place these items on a tray with wheels and it easily becomes a mobile station so you can get rid of the garbage as you go. 7. Cover walls with chalk paint. Sometimes an organized workshop involves making a space for your creative ideas. Rather than cluttered notebooks and binders of notes, paint the walls of your workshop in chalk paint so you can jot down notes, measurements, timelines and plans in an easily visible spot. This keeps your big ideas top of mind and holds you accountable to any deadlines you have set. 8. Wipe up water. Dust loves water. Water spills around the workshop are a great way to ensure the dust spreads and stubbornly sticks to where it shouldn’t. To prevent dust from clinging to every surface, ensure your workspaces are dry prior to working with dusty materials like wood and drywall. With a little work, the right tools and a plan in mind, an organized, dust-free workshop is right within reach. (BPT)
