the question: We love the house, but it needs some repairs and the Seller cannot do them prior to closing. Can we just get a direct credit from the Seller on the settlement statement at closing?
Real Estate Closings
the answer: Probably not, most all lenders will NOT allow a direct credit from the Seller to the Buyer on the settlement statement. Try to negotiate some Seller paid closing cost in the contract to offset the cost of the repairs.

“Many of our local brokers do not realize that Real Estate Weekly was started by Realtors for the benefit of Realtors so that we could have our own publication to turn to for our advertising needs. Because of Real Estate Weekly, we have been able to brand ourselves with local buyers and sellers and, at the same time, get our listings in front of the buying public with beautiful color photos of the homes we have for sale. In addition, Real Estate Weekly helps us hit all the popular websites with our listings to make sure buyers across the country see our listings as well.

“Fleas alone can each bite you or your pet up to hundreds of times a day,” says Dr. Rod Van Horn, a small animal, practicing veterinarian. “It’s vital to get control of these pests before they have the chance to bite, hurt and potentially spread disease.” Now that the sunshine is finally here, you may be anxious to take your four-legged friends outdoors to run around. Help your pets avoid ticks and fleas by following these easy tips: Treat for Prevention You may not always be able to keep your pets away from infested areas, but you can stop the bugs from latching onto your pet. Treat your pet monthly with a topical flea and tick treatment for the most effective, longest lasting way to prevent infestation. There are now approved generic versions of topical veterinary products. It kills fleas and ticks, including those which can spread Lyme disease, and keeps your pet protected for up to 30 days.

FAIRVIEW: TWO NICE HOMES on Charlotte Hwy. Awesome Views from the front of both homes. Great as a live-here-work-here property or other future commercial applications. Both units are currently rented. Asking $145,000. MLS:481427 www.rewnc.net/847770, Call Joe Chandler at 828279-4868
According to experts, more than 70 percent of fleas bite a dog within the first hour of jumping aboard, so killing them within that first hour is paramount. Try a fast-acting treatment which starts to kill fleas and ticks in just five minutes, before they can do damage. Check your House and Yard If you think you may have a flea infestation but aren’t sure, start by checking your house and yard. Walking around your home and yard in a pair of long white socks makes pests easy to spot. Now you’ll see if you have fleas hiding in your home. Secure the infested socks in a plastic bag and throw them away or put into the washing machine for a hot wash.

Inspect your Pets After a run outdoors, thoroughly check your pet for fleas and ticks or any signs of itching or blood stains. Be sure to look underneath the hair for visible bugs. But be aware that the largest part of an infestation Flea eggs, larvae and pupae are almost impossible to see in a quick check. That’s why prevention is key. Be Proactive Treat your pets now, before it’s too late. Apply treatments year-round to repel pests and prevent them from latching onto your pet’s skin. Just because you don’t see fleas or ticks now, doesn‚Äôt mean they aren’t worth worrying about. Always plan ahead. Do everything you can to protect your pet, and you’ll never have to fret about bringing home pesky pests from the park again.

Stay in shape without a gym membership (StatePoint) It’s not as easy to hide under layers of clothing during the summer. You’ll want to look your best in those shorts, t-shirts and bathing suits; as such, staying in shape is key.
