Get answers to legal questions about real estate ... Email your questions to reweekly@rewnc.com and we’ll get a real real estate attorney to answer them. Seriously.
the question: How can I tell if I'm buying a manufactured home?
the answer: A mobile or manufactured home is a dwelling which is factory-built to the specifications of the National Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Code as promulgated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. It is transported to the building site either on its own chassis or on a flatbed truck. On a practical basis you can examine the home and look for wheels, axels, metal framing and a hitch area or “tongue” used to move the home on the public roadways. A manufactured home that comes in sections and that is transferred on a flatbed truck may not have these. You can also look inside cabinets, electric boxes, and door frames for tags or plates that detail information about the home like the make and model, these are similar to plates and tags you see inside the door of your car stating the model, make and place of manufacturing. A visual inspection will usually tell you, but if in doubt, a home inspector can also point out features that let you know what type home you are looking at.

Saving money in 2014 starts at the store (StatePoint) An overly ambitious New Year’s resolution probably won’t stick. This year, ditch the desire for all-at-once dramatic transformation. Instead, consider simple, sustainable changes to your everyday routine that can make a big impact over time. For example, if you wish to get smarter about personal finances, start by cutting back on grocery expenses, which is our third largest expense, according to US government statistics. It’s a way to save thousands annually. “Saving money at the grocery store can seem tedious. But smart strategies can eliminate time-consuming coupon clipping and save you big at the store,” says Erin Chase, the "$5 Dinner Mom," author, blogger and frugal living expert. To help you kick off the year right, Chase is offering hassle-free tips for cutting expenses: Compare Prices You can save up to 70 percent on groceries by comparing prices across stores, which adds up to hundreds, even thousands of dollars annually. But manual comparison shop-
ping can be tricky and involve running all over town. Let technology do the work for you. Over half of all consumers currently use technology to grocery shop. Get on board the trend to save money and time. For example, with a new app called Favado, you can view sale prices from multiple stores to locate the best deals. With just a few clicks from your computer or smartphone, you can enjoy the satisfaction of having paid the lowest price possible. You can also use the app to create and share shopping lists. For more information or to download the app, visit www.Favado.com. Loyalty Programs For additional savings, sign up for loyalty or club cards. Items on sale with loyalty cards change periodically, so stock up on things you buy regularly when prices are low. Make tracking sales easier with an app like Cardstar that stores all your loyalty, rewards and membership cards in one place. This can help you rid your wallet and keychain of all those loyal-
ty cards from multiple stores. Follow the Cycles Most groceries you purchase regularly will eventually go on sale. In fact, most items go on sale every eight to 12 weeks. The key is to buy as much of the item as you need while it’s on sale to last you until the next cycle. Buy In-Season In-season fruits and vegetables tend to be more affordable. Find out what is in season in your local area and purchase accordingly. A new app called Seasons can tell you what's in season locally. With 214 entries that include an image, description and seasonal stats, users can easily decide what to buy. Buy One, Get One Many grocers offer buy-one, get-one free sales. This is a great way to save without clipping coupons. You can easily uncover these sales on a shopping app like Favado. Don’t waste money paying more for groceries than necessary. With a little planning, you can score great deals on the things your family needs and wants.

Tips to help your kids sleep better (StatePoint) When your children have trouble sleeping at night it can be just as tiring for you as for your little ones. And no matter what the source of the issue is, a full night’s sleep is important for everybody’s physical and mental health.
vision, encourage them to read, write or paint. A full day of activity means your children will be ready for some shut-eye by bedtime.
Take steps to help children rest better at night by trying these old and new sleep tight tips to make bedtime easier for the whole family:
Everyone knows that caffeine before bedtime is a no-no. While your children are probably not coffee drinkers, don’t forget that soda and chocolate contain caffeine too. Also, avoid feeding kids sugary or spicy foods before bedtime, as both can have a tossing and turning effect.
Stay Active Don’t be afraid to tire children out! Sign up your kids for Little League, gymnastics classes and ballet. Or just simply visit the park each day for a game of tag, catch or a bike ride. Keep your kids mentally active, as well. Instead of zoning out in front of the tele-
Mindful Eating
Brighten Up For many kids, settling in for the night can be difficult but bedtime can be fun with a favorite plush toy. Instead of opting for a standard nightlight, try a soft and cuddly option that may make sleep-
ing fun and comforting. Rituals A schedule helps the body know when to be alert and when to be sleepy. Set a bedtime for your kids and don’t let them deviate too much from their weekday routine on holidays and weekends. Nighttime rituals, such as bedtime reading, can help create a sleepy mood at night. Anxieties may make sleep a troublesome prospect for some kids, so another great bedtime ritual is simply spending time talking with your kids each night. This gives them the opportunity to open up and discuss what’s bothering them. With a few tricks, you can make bedtime more fun for kids.

Preparing for winter weather emergencies (StatePoint) Imagine living without heat, power or communication during the coldest days of the year. During a winter weather emergency, not only can these conditions be unpleasant, but dangerous too. Making a plan, winterizing your home and stocking up on supplies are all essential steps to prepare for winter emergencies.
Winterize Ensuring that your home is protected from the elements can turn a bad situation into a life-saving scenario. Install storm windows and apply weather-stripping to help insulate your home.

Follow the news closely so you can make last minute preparations before the weather turns dangerous. As part of this process, create an emergency plan and review it with your family. The plan should also address specific scenarios, such as what to do if someone is separated from the group and is unable to call for help. Stay Powered Up In the event that the power goes out, you will need a reliable alternative power source to charge essential communications equipment like your phone and computer, as well as heat sources, such as space heaters. A durable and compact USB solar charger that’s compatible with smartphones, tablets and even laptops, can be a lifesaver.

Lastly, make sure you have a battery-operated radio and plenty of batteries on hand.
Pack an Emergency Kit When extreme weather hits, it’s important to have essential supplies within an arm’s reach. Be sure that you have a well-stocked, up-todate first aid kit and an extra supply of all family members’ prescription medications.
Unless you enjoy treacherous roads, panicked crowds and long lines, don’t wait until that big storm comes your way to start preparing. For a safe and happy winter season, follow these steps to ensure your family is ready for any winter weather emergency that comes your way.
