Life and

Home Sweet Different Home I've come to enjoy spending cold winter evenings reclining by the woodstove, watching YouTube videos that run the gamut from people building isolated cabins, homesteading, or looking for beach bargains to hardworking families herding yak on unthinkably treacherous but gorgeous mountainsides.

My wife says after a long day in the office, I enjoy relaxing by watching other people work hard. She's on to me.

Honestly, i's the variety of home styles and lifestyles that intrigues me. One of the well-known networks did a bit on 26 of the most popular home styles. Some looked inviting, some sleek and cold. None looked within the average worker's budget - but that's beside the point. There really is something for everybody when it comes to choosing a home - and where that home is located.

You might not find 26 home styles in this issue of LifeandHomes, and there definitely aren't any yak herder huts in this market, but you'll find variety, and there's even more to consider online at LifeandHomes.com. Whether it's an isolated retreat on your 2024 must-have list or a sleek new condo, flip open this issue and contact one of the agents/ offices to get the ball rolling.

Exterior

Trends for 2024

If you're looking to refresh or improve your home's function and style in the new year, consider these 2024 home exterior trends from the experts at Westlake Royal Building Products, a leader in innovation, design and production of exterior and interior building products.

A Connection with Nature: Connecting people more closely with nature and natural elements, biophilic design can lead to increased well-being and productivity. Growing wellness and environmental concerns are driving demand for outdoor living space improvements and integration of nature in design, including elements like green roofs, living walls, and large windows.

You can create dramatic outdoor spaces by contrasting light and dark colors. For example, matte black can be paired with materials like brick, stone, shingles and wood for an eyecatching twist. Bold, earthy tones such as navy blue, forest green, dark brown, and red can also be combined with nature-inspired materials for organic texture and warmth. Other trending colors for 2024 include vivid teal and aqua blue, which can induce a sense of serenity.

High-Performance Siding: Homeowners continue to favor resilient materials that require less maintenance or replacement such as recycled vinyl, engineered wood and fiber cement, which

maintain beauty and function. Designed with innovation and performance in mind, Celect Cellular Composite Siding, a premium PVC siding from Westlake Royal Building Products, replicates the beauty and aesthetics of wood while remaining low maintenance and durable for a lifetime.

Featuring a patented interlocking seam design, it keeps moisture out and almost completely eliminates seams. Plus, its Kynar Aquatec coating provides superior protection against ultraviolet rays, reduces energy demands and resists dirt, seasonal staining and insects.

Functional Outdoor Living Spaces: Focused on creating seamless connections between interior and exterior spaces, this evolution in outdoor design includes integration of outdoor kitchens and living areas. Elements such as fire pits, pizza ovens, outdoor entertainment and games can be incorporated to personalize the space and provide a unique entertaining hub. Using cohesive materials and textures that can withstand the elements and flow from indoors to outdoors, such as stone veneer, can help elevate the space and further tie it to the home's interior.

Mixed Materials and Textures: Blending various textures, finishes and materials on a home's facade can create a unique, visually dynamic look. Using a combination of materials like brick and vinyl siding or stone and wood can add depth and visual interest. An option like Versetta Stone delivers the authentic look and feel of stone in a panelized format that is easy to install with screws or nails and requires no metal lath or scratch coat.

The stone siding features a tongue-and-groove system for perfect spacing, has a built-in rainscreen and can be installed almost anywhere without additional footings for support.

Transitional Takes on Tradition: A versatile design approach allows a home to transcend trends, ensuring its relevance and appeal over an extended period of time. In 2024, look for a rise in classic design trends featuring elements such as vertical siding, crisp white trim and other modernized traditional styles as well as a shift away from minimalism that incorporates more

nostalgic, personal touches to home exteriors, ushering in more of a transitional style.

Why You Need A Home

Inventory Having a detailed home inventory is important if you ever need to make an insurance claim. Here are four things to know about making a home inventory.

• Not having a home inventory could delay your claims payment. Most insurance companies will want a record of your lost or damaged items before they will pay a personal property claim.

Ask your agent what documentation is needed to make a claim.

• Many insurance companies have apps or online forms for home inventories. If your insurance company doesn’t offer its own app, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has a free NAIC Home Inventory app you can use.

• You can make your own home inventory using your smartphone to take pictures or video of each room in your home. Open closets and drawers and record serial numbers of items like appliances and electronics. Don’t forget the garage or shed to make note of tools, lawn equipment, and sporting goods.

• Keep your home inventory safe and up-todate. Store your inventory away from home with a family member or close friend or keep it online in cloud storage or email.

Make it a habit to update the list regularly whenever you make big purchases. (tdi.texas.gov)

Salvage Your Assets Help Storm Damaged

Trees Recover

The trail of damage after this winter's powerful winds can be devastating, especially for trees. The wounds may look fatal, however, even though major branches may be broken, foliage might be shredded, or the bark may be torn and gouged, trees have an amazing ability to recover from even the most severe cases. The International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) offers some advice to help your trees recover.

Post-Storm First Aid: Do not try to do it all yourself – If large limbs are broken or hanging, or if ladder or overhead chain saw work is needed, it is a job for a professional arborist.

Assess the damages – Evaluate your trees carefully by asking the following questions: Other than the storm damage, is the tree basically healthy and vigorous? Are major limbs or the leader (the main upward-trending branch on most trees) branch still remaining? Is at least 50 percent of the tree’s crown (branches and leaves) still intact? Are there remaining branches that can form a new branch structure? If you answered “yes” to the majority of these questions, there is a good chance for complete recovery. For assistance, hire an ISA Certified Arborist to determine the tree’s conditions.

Stand trees back up – Many trees suffer friction failures that cause the tree’s root system to lift out of the ground as the tree leans over. Uprooted trees are often unnecessarily removed under the mistaken idea that they cannot be saved. These trees can often be saved but are very dangerous.

The tension caused by the roots still in the ground can cause the tree to snap back. Consult the service of an ISA Certified Arborist if you are unsure about performing this work.

Beware of price gouging – Good tree work by qualified professionals is not inexpensive, however, poor work, no matter the price paid, can cost you a great deal. Professional prices should include liability and workman’s

compensation insurance, as well as bucket trucks and equipment. It does not include heavier specialty equipment that may be needed such as cranes, loaders, etc., or hardware that may be installed in the tree.

Financial Recovery – Be aware that tree losses to your landscape, whether large or small, may be deductible from your taxes. Two steps must be taken to be able to claim this deduction: 1.

Document the tree damage/loss with photos and an evaluation from an ISA Certified Arborist who has experience appraising trees. Such a Certified Arborist will be able to provide you with an estimated dollar value for your loss. 2.

Consult the services of a tax professional. You may be entitled to some financial relief through a provision in the tax code that allows you to deduct casualty losses from your income tax.

trees may succumb to harsh weather conditions, will help you decide if you want to replace these potentially dangerous species.

Do not top your trees – Untrained individuals may urge you to cut back all of the branches, on the mistaken assumption that it will help avoid breakage in future storms. However, professional arborists say that “topping,” the cutting of main branches back to stubs, is extremely harmful and unhealthy for your trees. Stubs will often grow back many weakly attached branches that are higher and are more likely to break when a storm strikes. Also, topping will reduce the amount of foliage, on which the tree depends for the food and nourishment needed for regrowth. A topped tree that has already sustained major storm damage is more likely to die than repair itself.

Look for potential Hazards – Investigate the condition of your trees. You or a Certified Arborist should look for damage such as cracks in the trunk or major limbs; hollow, aged, and decayed trees; hanging branches; improperly formed branches; one-sided or significantly leaning trees; and branches that may potentially rub the house.

Protect your asset – Trees may increase property value by up to 20%. Find out if your homeowner’s insurance will cover any damage your landscape may sustain due to unnatural causes, and include the total value of your trees when listing your assets for coverage. A Certified Arborist can provide an estimated value by inspecting your trees. Trees are dynamic living things that require proper care. Hiring a Certified Arborist who can assist you with prestorm inspections and poststorm repairs can help avoid unnecessary loss of your trees.

Know your tree species – Some species are more prone to storm damage. You should have a certified arborist evaluate your trees for hardiness and resilience. Being aware of which
