Life and

Homes

Low interest rates are being credited for luring potential buyers into the housing market. Unprecedented tax incentives and affordable housing seem to be contributing as well. Whether you’re shopping for your first home or are a veteran home buyer, it’s important to go into the game equipped and informed. Start with the basics:

* Aim to get yourself into the best possible financial position before you begin your home search. If you are looking for a step-by-step process, I highly recommend Dave Ramsey’s book, The Total Money Makeover.

* Make it your job to learn about the local market. Understanding pricing, location, school districts, and zoning regulations aide in making an informed decision when it’s time to buy. Now’s a great time to investigate alternative buying options such as foreclosure and short sale properties. Keep it real, though. Foreclosures and short sales require extra time and expertise. Know when to seek professional assistance. * Ask friends, family and neighbors to recommend real estate professionals they have worked with. Do your due diligence and select a qualified professional who knows the market and is willing to listen to your wishes and concerns. You’ll be working closely with them in the coming months, so finding an agent you can relate to personally is key.

Is Your Home Under-Protected?

Just when you think you’re safe, a recent nationwide survey has uncovered that a majority of American homes are dangerously under-protected when it comes to fire and carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. Even those equipped with smoke and CO alarms are at risk according to the study, which revealed that two thirds of U.S. households are not in compliance with the national recommendation for the number of smoke alarms set by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Even more alarming is the 90 percent of homes that do not meet the recommendation for number of carbon monoxide detectors, including 40 percent that report having zero working carbon monoxide detectors. “These statistics confirm what we’ve feared for years - that far too many homes in this country are not as well protected as they should be against the dangers of fire and CO,” says Deborah Hanson, director of external affairs for First Alert, a leader in residential fire and CO detection devices. “What’s more troubling is that many people don’t realize that their families are at risk.” For those in need of new smoke and CO alarms, a wide variety of innovative products are available with an assortment of features to meet different needs. First Alert products range from combination smoke and CO units to smoke alarms with escape lights, along with basic battery-powered products. These smoke and CO alarms are available at national retailers or for purchase through the First Alert online store at www.firstalertstore.com. (ARA)

Color: Strong saturated tones such as midnight blue, royal purple and deep chartreuse will join autumn’s traditional power hues of rich reds and burnt sienna. Reds are especially dominant, appearing in every shade from fiery orange-reds to deep merlot. These powerful colors are paired with linear and neutral whites, creams and soft grays to provide a highcontrast punch. Pattern: Fall pattern trends include micro and macro patterns within a single tile, larger-thanlife designs that incorporate multiple tiles, and optical illusions. Drawing on consumers’ continuing interest in the environment, tile makers are presenting entire collections inspired by nature. You can find tiles that mimic the texture of sand dunes, waves, tree bark and even rain. Texture: Texture lends nuances of shade and tone through the play of light and shadow. Ceramic tiles have always been a good medium for textures. Digital technology has made it easy for tile makers to apply texture to a ceramic surface. New possibilities have emerged, such as tiles that mimic the look of antique distressed wood and bush-hammered or chiseled stone. (ARA)

Before You Flip That Switch When the temperatures plummet, you shut the windows, flip the air switch to heat and plug any leak you can find in an effort to keep your house warm. But what you’re also doing is sealing the air inside your house.

NADCA has published an internationally recognized standard that specifies requirements for proper cleaning. For more information about HVAC cleaning and to find a certified and knowledgeable contractor, visit www.NADCA.com. (ARA)

Win A Home “Cleanover” You can win a “makeover” for your home by entering the ProMist™ Home CleanOver Contest. Cleaning expert and noted “Oprah” contributor Peter Walsh will visit the grandprize winner to clean and reorganize his or her home. Three monthly winners will get a mini Home CleanOver with a ProMist™ Cleaning Team. From now through January 31, 2011, you may enter by visiting www. homecleanover.com to upload your video and explain why you or someone you know needs a Home CleanOver. (NAPSI)

L i f e and H o m e s

While a good tight seal is very important to staying warm and keeping your energy bill in check, it also can really have an impact on indoor air quality.

Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems can act as a collection source for a variety of contaminants that have the potential to affect health, such as mold, fungi, bacteria and very small particles of dust. The removal of such contaminants from your HVAC system is crucial to improve indoor air quality.

■

Home renovation and building go on yearround, but as with any design statement, each season brings new looks and trends. This autumn’s ceramic tile trends share a flair for

boldness and innovation. The ceramic tile experts at Tile of Spain point to the hot trends to watch this fall:

“When you flip that switch on your heater, there is a lot of dust and debris - collected in the coils over the summer months - that either burns into fumes or gushes into the house through your vents,” says Aaron Marshbanks, board member of the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA).

Protect Your Vehicle &

Travel Safely This Winter

your coolant system before winter is very important. Checking the level and concentration of anti-freeze in your vehicle could save you costly engine repair and should be done twice every year. Choose an extended life coolant for ultimate protection, which can be used in nearly any year, make or model vehicle worldwide.

As cooler temperatures arrive, so does the opportunity to prepare your vehicles for winter driving conditions. Although you may not want to think the warm weather is behind you, taking time now to prepare and protect vehicles can save significant time, money and hassle later. A few tips for vehicle winterization and safe travels this season:

Travel prepared: In case something does happen to your vehicle this winter and you’re stranded for an extended period of time, it’s important to keep a few essential items on board. Assemble an emergency kit containing a blanket, gloves, ice scraper, flares, flashlight, jumper cables and basic first aid items. Make sure to also carry a cell phone when you travel, particularly if bad weather is expected. (ARA)

Simple steps to prepare your vehicle for changing weather conditions

Clear vision: Having full view of what’s ahead and behind your vehicle at all times is vital, so be sure to check your windshield wiper blades and washer fluid before winter precipitation hits. For colder climates where you may experience ice or frost, you may want to keep a bottle of de-icing windshield spray handy. Simply spray your icy windshield with the fluid, turn on your vehicle defroster and your windows will clear quickly and easily.

Central New York

Auto armor: Did you know that within 30 days, a small scratch or nick in a vehicle’s paint finish can rust? Add some freezing temperatures and a small problem can quickly escalate to a larger, more expensive one. Luckily, fixing scratches is quick, easy and affordable, thanks to products such as Dupli-Color’s Scratch Fix 2in1 touch-up paint. Available in thousands of colors to perfectly match your vehicle’s paint, and featuring a patented applicator for precision and control, anyone can achieve professional looking results that will repair and protect your vehicle’s appearance … and help you avoid an ugly problem next spring.

Tired out: One of the most important aspects of winterization is ensuring you have a safe grip on the road. Like the soles of shoes that prevent you from slipping, quality tires help keep your vehicle securely on the road, especially in slippery rain or snow conditions. Checking tire tread and pressure is important to ensure you have optimal traction. If you live in a particularly snow-prone or rural area, you might also consider buying snow tires and/or chains. Engine protection: Extreme temperatures can cause major issues in a vehicle’s engine, so testing 4

“Check Out”

The Kitchen When Shopping For A New Home Although buying a home is the largest investment most people will ever make, the decision doesn’t have to be as daunting as it may seem to many. There are some simple guidelines that can help you find a home you will be happy with for a very long time. A recent study conducted by Merillat, a leading manufacturer of cabinetry, found that the kitchen is the most influential room when deciding to buy a home, followed by the great room and then the master bedroom. The kitchen deserves special attention when shopping for a new home and has many aspects not always visible with a quick glance. Follow these two simple guidelines and you’ll be better able to decide if the kitchen is right for you. Keep A Checklist Ask yourself: • Do I like the layout of the kitchen? (Keep in mind all the items that will require storage.) • Does the kitchen feel comfortable when I’m in it? • Does the kitchen help facilitate interactions with family and friends? (Do the spaces enable you to easily associate with family and friends?) • Is the cabinetry durable and well built? • Does the kitchen have visual impact or a good focal point such as an island, cooking grotto or other unique feature?

(Identify the tasks or storage functions of the island to ensure it will meet your needs.) • Does the kitchen have adequate storage space and built-in features? (The study found the biggest regret homeowners have after a kitchen remodel is that they didn’t include enough storage features.) Test-Drive The Kitchen • Open and close the drawers several times to be sure they roll in and out smoothly and quietly.• Open the wall and base cabinets, because you may discover unique storage solutions. • Role-play the necessary steps involved to see if the space is laid out as efficiently as possible. • Examine the thickness of the wood on the drawer fronts and sides, as well as the cabinet doors. • See if the hinges are adjustable to make for a correctly aligned cabinet door. • Check to see that the color of the interior complements the exterior. Most importantly, when shopping for a new home, take your time and analyze all aspects of the home to ensure it is perfect for you and your family. To learn about kitchen design and storage features, visit Merillat, a leading manufacturer of cabinetry, at www.Merillat.com. (NAPSI)

Should I Use a Realtor If I Am in Foreclosure? When a property owner is trying to avoid foreclosure, there are many options available. Some of them may work and others may just be a waste of time in a given situation. The person facing foreclosure needs to look at the circumstances and the availability of various options. One option that makes a lot of sense is to list the home with a realtor. There are few things to realize when listing a home in foreclosure with a realtor. The amount of time available to list and market the house is crucial to making it work. If the house is in foreclosure and going to auction in a week, listing with a realtor may not be a hopeful option. But if the foreclosure process has just begun, listing with a realtor may be the way to go. The first step to take is to call the lender and communicate your intentions. Contrary to popular belief, most lenders do not actually want to foreclose on a home. It is costly and time-consuming. Because of this, if the borrower is willing to work with the lender and keep the lines of communication open, a lender will generally work the borrower.

Central New York

Ask for a mortgage forbearance and list the house with a competent realtor as soon as you decide this is what you want to do. A forbearance means that the lender is giving a short time to bring the mortgage current before proceeding with the foreclosure. Usually the time period will be around 60 days, but some lenders will give more or less time.

Listing with a realtor is best for someone with a small amount of equity in the home. In fact, the more equity there is in the home, the more likely that an offer will be made on the home that is sufficient enough to accept. An ideal situation would entail enough equity to cover the amount of any liens against the property and closing costs.

Be sure to ask the realtor for an adjusted DOM for the home that is in foreclosure. An adjusted DOM will give you an idea of how long it will take to the sell the home and at what price it should be listed given the unique qualities the home has. 6

We br i n g p e o p l e a n d h o m e s t o g e t h e r .

To get started, look for a realtor who has experience in the business and who has a good track record for selling homes without the listed properties spending too many days on the market. Most realtors will charge a commission fee of about six percent. Nevertheless, the benefits definitely outweigh the expense here. Get the best realtor available who is willing to work with you. It is better to sell the home than to end up with nothing... Source: http://www.bestmanagementarticles.com Author Ameen Kamadia helps Texas homeowners face the difficulties of foreclosure.

Spotlight on our Talk Radio Shows

Realtors have many tools at their fingertips and a good realtor can give a property owner a realistic idea of how feasible it is to sell the home before it is foreclosed upon. A realtor will have access to the average number of days on the market (DOM) it takes for a home to sell in a particular neighborhood.

■

L i f e and H o m e s

For example, if most homes similar to your property are being sold in 45 days at the price of $120,000, then that gives a starting point for what the house should be listed at and how long it will take to sell. Adjusting for differences in the property is crucial because a major problem or major renovations can affect these calculations.

How To Create

newsShorts

Versatile Living Spaces With the active and bustling lifestyle families lead, it is no surprise that they frequently change the way they interact with, and in, their living spaces. Different stages of life call for different living spaces. Most homes are not equipped to offer this versatility. Outfitted with traditional swinging doors that squander space, standardwidth doorways offer limited accessibility and restrictive living areas. According to a survey on homeowner and home buyer priorities, the ideal home readily adapts to a family’s changing room space requirements. For example, the addition, growth and departure of children or elderly relatives create significant demand for flexible floor plans. To make the most of your home, adding new door solutions like Johnson Hardware’s ingenious Multi-Pass Pocket Door Hardware can help you optimize existing square footage.

Central New York

A home that is able to evolve with ever-changing families has functionality at the forefront of its design. Johnson’s Multi-Pass Pocket Door application

L i f e and H o m e s

Amy Abdoo

Make high traffic areas of your home more accessible with a large entryway that won’t inhibit wheelchairs, walkers or foot traffic. Whether it’s a play room for the kids or living quarters for an elderly relative, a pocket door’s bottom track can be recessed in the floor for easy navigation through the entryway. With standard Multi-Pass Pocket Door Hardware, you can create up to 12 foot wide doorways, or wider openings with longer custom tracks. Reveal large open areas when the pocket doors slide back inside the wall. Now you have an expansive space for guests to socialize and mingle, an area perfect for family game night or a safe, open area for children to play.

enables up to three 300-pound doors to glide effortlessly into the inside of the wall. Since pocket doors do not swing open or closed, you can reclaim floor space consumed by traditional hinged doors.

Pull the doors shut and the large space quickly transforms into two cozy and more private settings. Sliding the doors closed allows you to easily create an intimate home theater to watch the latest movie or a comfy, peaceful nook to catch up on your reading. Multi-Pass Pocket Doors give you a level of versatility that standard doors and entryways cannot mimic. To ensure safe, jump-proof operation, choose hardware that is manufactured and tested to exceed ANSI standards and backed with a lifetime guarantee. If your home needs some updates to accommodate your family’s lifestyle, it’s easier than ever to make relatively small changes that will have a big impact.

Fall Yard Cleanup

by: Ellen Ball

It’s that time of year when we begin cleaning up our yards and preparing for the upcoming winter. The areas that most commonly need attention are trees and shrubs, the lawn, and vegetable or flower gardens. Trees and shrubs often need to be trimmed back in the fall, though this will vary, depending on the type of plant. If you’re unsure when to trim your trees or bushes, consult a gardening book or online resource. If your trees are taller than 10 or 15 feet, it’s best not to take the risk of doing the job yourself. Look for a qualified arborist who can do the work for you, and be sure to check out some references before hiring anyone to do the work. This can also be a good time to remove any old or dying trees, as well. Rake up all the fallen leaves and any other debris from your lawn. There are many types of leaf bagging devices on the market today that can make this job easier, such as leaf bag holders or special tarps designed to collect leaves and other debris while you are raking. Once all the leaves are removed, it’s important to do one final mowing at the end of the year. A fall lawn application is also a good idea. Visit your local garden center or nursery for a recommendation of what type of product to use. The last area that will require some fall attention is your garden and planting areas. Your work here will vary depending on what types of plants you’re working with. In the case of annuals, especially annual vegetable plants, it’s best to remove the plants entirely at the end of the growing season. Some vegetables like tomatoes and potatoes, if left to rot in the cool fall weather, can transmit fungal diseases into the soil. Once annual plants are removed, now is a good time to till the soil and add any fertilizers such as organic matter or other soil amendments. Finish the area off by adding a thick layer of mulch. If the planting area in question is full of perennial plants, it’s best to leave the plants alone and let them die back naturally during the winter months. plant, too.

Can My Loan Modification Request Be Denied If I Don’t Make Enough Money? A loan modification allows a borrower to make lower monthly mortgage payments by agreeing to a modification of original loan terms. The idea of a loan modification is to allow homeowners struggling to make their payments every month an opportunity to catch up on their loan and recover from their hardship. Since a loan modification is typically used to help homeowners who don’t make enough money to cover their mortgage payments every month, many wonder why can you get turned down for a loan modification if you don’t make enough money. The answer to the question is simple: because the lender only modifies loans when they think they can still make a profit. Lenders are only willing to modify a loan so far and are only willing to lower a monthly payment by so much. If the borrower doesn’t make enough money to make monthly payments at the lowest amount the lender is willing to modify to, then in most cases the borrower is just plain out of luck. If the borrower can’t satisfy the requirements to make a lower monthly payment, the lender sees no point in modifying a loan when foreclosure remains a very real possibility for the borrower.

client. This will allow the borrower to cut down on the amount of time that is wasted waiting for a decision that is likely to be negative.

A borrower’s best bet would be to hire an experienced foreclosure attorney who can review a person’s entire financial history and current financial standing in order to gain an accurate estimate of a person’s likelihood for modification approval. Even though the borrower may be more than deserving of a modification, the attorney could provide a unique third person perspective and offer insight based on their experience with certain lenders. If the attorney feels that the borrower would have a hard time gaining a loan modification from their lender, the attorney could immediately consider alternatives to loan modification that may better suit their

Even though a lender may not be likely to modify a loan if the borrower makes too much money, the attorney may still be able to convince the lender that a modification would be in the best interest of both parties through negotiation. This type of negotiation is delicate in that certain pieces of evidence and information will have to be submitted to the lender for review. If the borrower attempts to act as their own negotiator, they may leave out a vital piece of information and ruin their chances for a modification at all. (Source: ArticelBlast)

What does all this mean to the borrower? It means that if they make too little money they lower their chances of being approved for a modification because the lender doesn’t think that the borrower will be able to keep up with payments no matter how the loan is modified. It also means that if the borrower makes too much money they can also be denied a modification on the grounds that they should have no trouble making payments. Unfortunately for many borrowers, there is no scale or grid that lenders make public that explains the amount a borrower

must make in relation to the amount of their monthly payments in order to be approved for a loan modification.
