ACADIAN HOME BUILDERS ASSOCIATION

Spring Maintenance Tips + Important Safety Reminders

By Mac Gibson, President Acadian Home Builders Association

I

f the thought of spring cleaning makes you long for winter, it’s time to think about these annual chores in a new way. By dedicating just a few days to complete these simple tasks, you will keep your home running smoothly and protect your investment at the same time.

Inside Your Home • As the weather gets warmer it’s important to ensure your windows are in good working condition. Inspect all windows for proper operation and a tight fit. Clean the window tracks and check that the weatherstripping hasn’t cracked or torn. Preventing unwanted outside air from leaking into your home will reduce your energy bills.

• Have your air conditioning system inspected and cleaned. If your system has a filter, replace it every three months to keep your unit working efficiently.

• Warmer weather also means that pests – including ants, roaches, rats, and termites – will be looking to join your household. Keep them out by sealing cracks and openings along baseboards, behind sinks, and around pipes and windows. And, repair holes in door and window screens.

Outside Your Home • Check the condition of glazing compound, caulking and exterior paint.

Replace or paint as needed.

When working with ladders always remember to: • Read and follow all warning labels that are on the ladder.

• Use ladders only on solid, stable and level surfaces.

• Keep your body centered on the ladder; never lean over either side rail.

• Never stand on the top two rungs of a step ladder.

• Only use a step ladder in a fully opened and locked position; never use it while it is closed, partially opened or leaning on a structure.

• Protect yourself from electrical hazards and do not work within 10 feet of overhead power lines.

Moving Heavy Objects Spring cleaning often involves moving heavy objects such as couches, tables, entertainment consoles and bookcases. A serious injury can occur in these situations, too. In order to eliminate the risk of objects falling and to lift items safely, always have another person help you.

More tips for lifting heavy objects include:

• Maintain an upright posture from the waist up.

• Lift with your legs, not your arms or back.

• Inspect your roof for snow damage.

• Pivot on your feet, don’t twist from your waist.

• Check for evidence of termites such as sagging floors and ceilings or dry, brown tunnels in the ground near the home’s foundation.

• Seed and feed the lawn and plant annuals, cut back perennials that need pre-growth pruning.

• Clean your gutters of debris. Yes, you have to do this in the fall and the spring. Long winters bring a mix of storms and heavy winds that can carry a lot of debris to your gutters.

Focusing on these small jobs now will save you time and money in the future.

While you’re spring cleaning, it is important to remember to work safely. Here are some simple steps you can take to ensure that you are protecting yourself, your family and the environment as you check off the chores on your list.

Ladder Safety Ladders can be hazardous when not used properly. In many cases, accidents and injuries occur while using ladders because they are improperly placed, not secured, not the right size for the job or the user overreaches.

April 11-19, 2015 AHBA presents the 53rd Annual Parade of Homes showcasing the latest in home building design and products. Houses included in the Parade exhibit the hottest trends in architecture, floor layout, building materials, and appliances.

Some are also furnished by local interior designers in a wide range of styles. Square footage and prices range from starter homes to estates.

The Parade of Homes is a self-guided tour where ticket holders can view as many homes as they like in any order they choose. Ticket purchases include the official guide book which contains pictures and descriptions of each home, builder profiles, and a map.

53rd Annual Parade of Homes Saturdays & Sundays April 11-19, 2015

• Get close to the load.

• Exchange glass and screens in storm doors and/or windows. Ensure the screens are clean by washing gently with soapy water.

• To prevent outside pests from entering your home, look for cracks and holes on the outside of your home and seal them up. Be sure to include points where utility lines enter the house. Also address damage to the basement foundation and windows.

The Parade is Coming!

More Info

Using chemicals during cleaning can pose a hazard to not only yourself, but also to the environment. Read the labels of all chemicals you are using and follow all the recommended safety practices. These may include: wearing protective gear such as gloves and goggles, not mixing the substance with other cleaners, opening windows for ventilation, and following proper disposal guidelines.

www.ahbaonline.com/parade

Gold Sponsors:

Or, consider using all-natural cleaning products that can be equally – if not more – effective than their traditional counterparts. Be sure to read all the labels on these products, as well, to ensure that they truly are green. Natural cleaning products that you may already have in your cabinet include baking soda, lemon juice and white vinegar.

Yard Tools Make sure you have properly maintained any tools or equipment in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. Have your lawnmower serviced yearly, never remove guards or safety devices, and wear appropriate eye, body and hearing protection.

Motivations for selling a home are unique to each homeowner, and selling involves both emotional and financial considerations. Knowing when it’s the right time to sell could depend on factors such as the housing market, school zones, upsizing, downsizing, job relocation, etcetera. The variables and factors are endless since not everyone sells a home for the same reason. However, a few of the following factors may hint that it is time to sell: 1. Home Does Not Meet Your Needs 2. No Longer Having an Emotional Attachment 3. Equity Is On Your Side 4. Financial Stability

REALTOR® Safety

WWW.REALTORACADIANA.COM

By: Adams and Reese LLP Patricia B. McMurray and Rebecca G. Smith

The Department of Labor classifies your job as a “High Risk Occupation”. REALTORS® have been robbed and worse at property showings. There are, however, many ways to mitigate these safety concerns detailed on the National Association of REALTORS® website.

1.Know your clients.

All safety procedures should begin at the office. Ask new clients to stop by your office for an initial meeting. Consistently researching all new clients is an important first step and can be done by requesting copies of clients’ personal identification along with detailed vehicle information. Be sure you have measures in place to protect client’s personal information. It is recommended by NAR that you fill out REALTOR® safety forms that include Agent Information Forms, Agent Itinerary Forms, and Prospect Identification Forms (all found on the NAR website below).

This abundance of information may deter potential criminals.

2.Show properties in the daylight.

Schedule property showings during the day. If you must show a property at night, arrive early, turn on the lights, open blinds, etc. in order to increase visibility

Acadiana HomeFinder www.theadvertiser.com

3.Be sure others know where you are.

Call your office frequently to let others know when and where your property showings will be. Leave the name and phone number of the client you are meeting and set up a time for your office to call you and check in.

4.Leave valuable personal property in your trunk or at your office.

NAR recommends locking your purse in the trunk of your car before you arrive at your destination.

Carry only non-valuable and business items, except for your cell phone, inside the property for a showing.

5.Park where your car is visible.

Park in a well-lit, visible location that is preferably in the front of a property instead of in the back. If possible, get acquainted with some of the neighbors surrounding the property before showing the property.

16

6.Stay alert.

When you arrive at your property showing, stop and scan the location for potential dangers. Is there any questionable activity in the area? Can you be blocked in the driveway by another vehicle?

Does anything seem out of place?

7.Limit personal information.

Limit the amount of information you share. Giving out too much information to potential clients can make you a target.

10 Things Burglars Don’t Want You to Know By: Jan Soults Walker

Successful burglars have lots in common — home owners who unwittingly give invitations to robbery.

Here’s how thieves thank you for your generosity.

1. Thanks for the ladder!

Call me a social climber if you will, but I did discover a ladder in your back yard.

Thank you for leaving it where I could

near windows and doors. Make sure entry points to your home are easily visible from the street — I much prefer to work in private! While you’re at it, install

6. The telltale grass Wow, isn’t it amazing how fast the grass grows these days? I swung by now and then and noticed your lawn was uncut,

social networks is fine — but do that after you return so you won’t broadcast your absence!

Sincerely,

lean it against your home and easily reach a second-story window. I really love it when upper story openings aren’t wired to a home security system!

So, if you want to keep me out, store

motion-sensor lighting. I’m scared of bright lights!

Cordially, The Tree Lover

newspapers were piling up on the front steps, and your shades were always closed. To me, that’s an open invitation.

Next time, hire someone you trust to mow regularly, pick up around the

Cyber Savvy

your ladder in the basement or a locked garage. And call your security company to wire upper-story windows into your alarm system.

Vertically yours, A rising star 2. Loved your trash Can’t tell you how much fun I have

4. Su casa es mi casa!

I was sincerely relieved to find your back door was a plain wood-panel door. I had no trouble kicking it in (my knees appreciate how easy that was!) Imagine how silly I felt when I discovered that your windows weren’t locked anyway.

You may want to take a cue from your neighbor and install steel-wrapped

doorstep, open and close various window shades, and turn different lights on and off (or put a few on timers). One more thing: Lock any car you leave in the driveway, or I can use your garage door opener to get in quickly.

Best, Your Trip Advisor

and Glympse, I might know if you’re not home. Web sites such as www. pleaserobme.com help me keep track of your whereabouts.

If you prefer that I not visit your home, be careful about geo-tagging. But, otherwise, thank you for the loot!

— Just Tagging Along

driving around neighborhoods on trash day (especially after big gift holidays) when the empty boxes on the curb reveal

exterior doors with deadbolts on all your entries. And be sure your windows are locked when you’re away.

7. Getting carried away Many thanks for putting your valuables into an easy-to-carry safe that I could

10. Thanks for the appointment Thanks for inviting me into your home to view the laptop you wanted to sell. I do

what wonderful new toys you have. Your thoughtfulness made it possible for me to land a new laptop and a flat-screen television in one easy trip to your home!

Next time, break down the boxes and conceal them in the recycling or trash bins.

Happy shopping!

Curbside Cruiser

All the best, Buster Door

carry right out your back door. (Nice jewelry, and thank you for the cash!)

You may want to invest in a wall safe, which I rarely attempt to open. Or, rent a lock box at your bank.

With appreciation, Mr. Safe and Not-So-Sound

apologize for the scare I gave you when I took it (and your purse).

Did you know that some large U.S. cities are averaging one so-called “robbery by appointment” per day? If you want to sell high-ticket items to strangers, I suggest you arrange to meet at the parking lot of your local police station. I definitely won’t show up, and you’ll still have your valuables (and your purse!)

Regards, A Tough Sell

3. Dear Can’t-Get-Around-to-It Recently, I noticed you hadn’t trimmed trees and shrubs around your home, so I knew I’d have a wonderful place to hide while I worked to break into your home.

I really can’t thank you enough for all the great new things I grabbed.

Next time, trim back bushes and trees

5. Bad reflection on you.

You’d be surprised how many home owners position a mirror in their entry hall so I can see from a window if the alarm system is armed. (Yours wasn’t, but I’m guessing you know that by now!)

Thanks for taking a lot of pressure off of me.

A little free advice: Relocate the mirror so your alarm system isn’t visible if someone else would peer through a window.

8. Dear BFF Thanks for alerting a professional acquaintance of mine via your social network that you were away for the week in Puerto Vallarta, having the time of your life. Me? I enjoyed a very relaxing visit to your home with no pressure of

Fondly, Mr. Peeper

9. Tag, you’re it!

Where are you? When you use popular geo-tracking apps, such as FourSquare

being caught.

If only you had known that posting comments and photos of your trip on

GENERAL COUNSEL

IS FLOOD NECESSARY?

INSURANCE

REALLY

Q: I AM ABOUT TO BUY MY FIRST HOUSE, AND WHILE IT IS NOT IN A FLOOD ZONE, MY DAD IS INSISTENT THAT I GET FLOOD INSURANCE. IS THIS REALLY NECESSARY? WOULDN’T I BE ENTITLED TO FEDERAL ASSISTANCE IN THE EVENT OF A FLOOD? IF NOT, CAN THE SAME COMPANY THAT ISSUES MY HOMEOWNER’S POLICY ISSUE A FLOOD INSURANCE POLICY TOO? A. Federal disaster assistance is available, but probably not quite the way you would expect.

Federal disaster assistance is only available if the President of the United States declares a disaster.

And then, federal assistance is often in the form of a loan – with interest. If however, you have flood insurance, you can be reimbursed for all of your covered losses, even if the President does not declare a disaster.

Stephen J. Oats

Lafayette participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), and each section of Lafayette has been mapped and assigned a zone designation. Depending on a variety of factors, some zones are deemed more vulnerable than others. If the home you purchase is in a designated high-risk area (typically referred to as the 100 year flood zone) and you receive a mortgage loan from a federally regulated lender, your lender will require you to purchase flood insurance.

Flood insurance for homeowners, renters, and businesses is administered by the federal government and can be purchased from several of our local insurance companies. Since the federal government sets the rates, insurance companies that offer flood insurance are essentially competing on a service and not the price. If you are required to or decide to purchase flood insurance, be sure to ask how claims are handled and how quickly claims are normally resolved.

General Counsel answers are provided by the Law Firm of Oats & Marino, which is general counsel to individuals, businesses and government entities throughout the State of Louisiana. The information contained in this article is intended to be general in nature. Before any action is taken based upon this information, it is essential that competent, individual, professional service be obtained. Send questions for this column to General Counsel, 100 East Vermilion St., Suite 400, Lafayette, LA 70501 or e-mail your questions to generalcounsel@oatsmarino.com.

Sorry, no personal replies.

Acadiana HomeFinder www.theadvertiser.com

Also, don’t wait until it starts to rain to decide you want flood insurance. If you purchase flood insurance at the same time your purchase your home, the policy should go into effect immediately. However, if you wait until after you close and then decide to purchase flood insurance, the policy won’t go into effect until 30 days after it is purchased. So, if the weather forecast announces a flood alert for your area and you run to purchase coverage, you will be out of luck. Also, keep in mind that most companies will not write flood or hurricane insurance if there is tropical depression or tropical storm in the Gulf of Mexico.

If the home you purchase is not in a high-risk area, you will not be required to purchase flood insurance. Nevertheless, keep in mind that floods can and sometimes do occur outside of the high risk areas, so, you might want to consider buying flood insurance, even if your home is outside the high risk area. Most local insurance agents recommend purchasing flood insurance, even if your

33

home is not in a flood zone. Unless you live in a high-risk area, flood insurance is relatively inexpensive. On average, it costs about $225 a year for a $100,000 home. Nevertheless, most people don’t purchase it.

Essentially, unless the home you purchase is in a high-risk area and your lender requires you to purchase flood insurance, the decision is up to you. Like other forms of insurance, it boils down to you comfort level – that is, the amount of risk you are willing to take versus the money you are willing to spend.

YOU CAN ONLY CLAIM ONE HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION Q: MY WIFE AND I RECENTLY BOUGHT A SECOND HOME, A SMALL LOFT APARTMENT IN NEW ORLEANS. WE HAVE MOVED SOME FURNITURE THERE, AND GOTTEN PHONE SERVICE, CHANGED OUR MAILING ADDRESS, DRIVER’S LICENSES AND VOTER REGISTRATION TO ORLEANS PARISH, BUT WE STILL SPEND MORE TIME AT OUR HOUSE IN LAFAYETTE THAN THE APARTMENT IN NEW ORLEANS. DOES THIS AFFECT OUR HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION? A: The homestead exemption is a tax exemption on the first $75,000 of the value of a person’s primary residence. It applies to all homeowners and the value of your home is exempt up to $75,000 from state and parish property taxes.

The homestead exemption is permanent as long as the homeowner continued to own and permanently reside at that location. If the owner moves to another location or sells the property, the homestead exemption on that property will be canceled.

Only one homestead exemption in the State of Louisiana can be granted on a home that is owned and permanently occupied as a domicile. A homestead exemption cannot be applied to a property that is not permanently occupied by its owner.

You and wife can keep your homestead on your Lafayette house. In fact, your homestead at your old house in Lafayette will continue indefinitely, until you clearly discontinue using it as your homestead. You will then have to notify the local Tax Assessor of this change.

Even though you and your wife have taken a some steps that look like you have relocated to New Orleans, such as changing your voter’s registration and your driver’s licenses, etc., the fact that the two of you still spend more time in Lafayette than at your new loft apartment should be enough to justify keeping the homestead exemption for your home in Lafayette.

At some point, you and your wife may decide to abandon the homestead you presently maintain at your home in Lafayette and transfer it to your new apartment in New Orleans.

Foolproof Decorating Tips Freshen up your home's interior—without breaking the bank

Professional home stagers know how to play up your house's strengths, hide its flaws, and make it appealing to just about everyone. These local designers share their tips for freshening up your home's interior—without breaking the bank.

A little creativity goes a long way when trying to breathe new life into tired décor or even putting your signature touch on your new space.

If you want your house to make a great first impression, paint the front door a fun, glossy hue. Red is a lucky color in many cultures. A red door meant "welcome" to weary travelers in early America, and on churches it represents a safe haven.

Two other hues gaining favor: orange and yellow, both colors are associated with joy and warmth. One thing that should go: an outdated screen door. Get rid of it or replace it with a storm door with full-length glass that you can switch out for a screened panel.

Hang at Least One Mirror in Every Room

2

Mirrors can make a space feel brighter because they bounce the light around the room. Put mirrors on walls perpendicular to windows, not directly across from them. Hanging a mirror directly opposite a window can actually bounce the light right back out the window.

Scale Artwork to Your Wall

3

There are few things more ridiculous-looking than hanging dinky little art too high on the wall. The middle of a picture should hang at eye level. If one person is short and the other tall, average their heights. Also take scale into account; for a large wall, go big with one oversize piece or group smaller pieces gallery-style. For the latter, don't space the pictures too far apart; 2 to 4 inches between items usually looks best.

Anchor Rugs under Furniture Feet

4

In a living room, all four legs of the sofa and chairs in a furniture grouping should fit on it; the rug should define the seating area. At the very least, the front two legs of the sofa and chairs should rest on it. Even living rooms with less than generous proportions usually require an 8-by-10-foot or a 9-by-12foot rug to properly accommodate a seating area. Go too small with the rug size and everything looks out of scale.

Make Sure Your Sofa Talks to Your Chairs

5

Think of a nice hotel lobby: The furniture is arranged in groupings that invite conversation. When you place the furniture in your living room, aim for a similar sense of balance and intimacy. A conversation area that has a U-shape, with a sofa and two chairs facing each other at each end of the coffee table, or an H-shape, with a sofa directly across from two chairs and a coffee table in the middle, is ideal. One common mistake to avoid: Pushing all the furniture against the walls. People do that because they think it will make their room look bigger, but in reality, floating the furniture away from the walls makes the room feel larger.

Give Outdated Finishes The Cinderella Treatment

6

Got dated fixtures? Reinvent them with spray paint and inexpensive refinishing kits. A 1980s brass chandelier can get a new lease on life with a quick coat of hammered-bronze or satin-nickel spray paint. Even outdated kitchen cabinets benefit from a few coats of white paint and new hardware. And if you thought there was no hope for Formica countertops, think again. Try RustOleum Countertop Transformations, a DIY counter-coating product that mimics stone, making even the ugliest 1970s counter look fresh. What's left to do: Swap out cracked and mismatched switch plates and outlet covers for updated matching ones.

Let the Sunshine In

7

When it comes to heavy, outdated drapes, a naked bank of windows is better than an ugly one. Ideally, window dressings should be functional and elegant: Think sheers paired with fulllength panels. If your room gets a lot of sun, opt for light colors that won't fade.

The most recommended lightweight fabrics for panels are cotton, linen, and silk blends because they tend to hang well.

Use Visual Tricks to Raise The Ceiling

8

If your ceilings are on the low side, paint them white to make the room feel less claustrophobic. Hang curtains higher than the windows to trick your eye into thinking the room is taller. Most standard curtain panels measure 84 or 96 inches, allowing you to go about 3 inches above the window casing before the length gets too short. If you want to hang them higher, you'll have to order custom drapes. Love patterned panels? Try vertical stripes; the lines visually elongate your walls. Leaning a large mirror against a wall can also make a room seem taller.

In Acadiana, we’ve created a beautiful “backyard,” by celebrating our food, music, and culture.

• Take a #litterwalk. Collect trash as you go.

But our collective front yard — community gateways, streets and parks — don’t always reflect our vibrant spirit and traditional values.

• Organize a clean-up day with friends and family.

• #Recycle plastic grocery bags, or better yet, buy reusable ones.

• Join a group. Civic organizations regularly plan improvement activities.

It’s time to do some #yardwork — time to roll up our sleeves and transform Acadiana to reflect who we really are.
