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: We are thinking of buying property with a manufactured home on it. What should we be concerned about?

the answer: You should know the status of the title to the home located on the property. Many times manufactured homes or trailers, have titles just like automobiles do. You need to know the status of the title so as to insure you own the personal property (the manufactured home) as well as the real property (the land). Also, if you are looking to finance the purchase you will need to make sure your lender will agree to lend on a manufactured home.

Seeing through some eye-health myths (StatePoint)Everyone has heard myths about what is and isn’t good for your eye health -from eating more carrots to limiting screen time. Unfortunately, many so-called facts are anything but factual, according to Dr. Ryan Nakamura, a vision care optometrist. Here, he sorts fact from fiction. • Myth: Reading in dim lighting will damage my eyes. • Busted: It may seem hard to believe, but there is no evidence that reading in dim light will cause long-term damage to your eyes. “Dim lighting can lead to eye strain, requiring your eyes to work harder and making them tire more quickly, but it’s only temporary,” says Dr. Nakamura. That said, if you have access to a well-lit room for reading, take advantage of it. • Myth: The darker the lenses my sunglasses are, the better they will protect my eyes. • Busted: Not exactly. “Dark sunglass lenses may reduce eye discomfort for those who experience light sensitivity, but they do not provide additional protection from ultra-vio-

let rays,” says Nakamura. More important than the darkness of your lenses is making sure the sunglasses have UVA and UVB protection -- the only true defense against the sun’s harmful rays. Over time, exposure to UV rays can lead to cataracts, macular degeneration and, in some cases, even blindness. So whether you prefer lighter or darker lenses in your frames, sunglasses are a must-have year-round. Don’t forget to make sure the children in your life wear them too. • Myth: Working many hours in front of a computer screen will change my glasses prescription. • Busted: Working too long in front of the computer won’t change your prescription, but there are some impacts to consider. The blue light emitted from electronic devices can be damaging -- impacting your sleep and possibly causing macular degeneration, which is the leading cause of blindness in adults. Also, using electronics for extended periods of time can result in digital eye strain.

Symptoms of digital eye strain include fatigue, headaches and neck pain. To help protect against digital eye strain and blue light exposure, consider using eyeglass lenses with blue light protection. Also remember the 20-20-20 rule: for every 20 minutes spent looking at your computer, TV or digital device, spend 20 seconds looking at something at least 20 feet away. • Myth: If you don’t have obvious issues with your vision, you don’t need an annual eye exam. • Busted: A comprehensive annual eye exam can protect far more than just vision. It can detect signs of serious health problems -including diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol -- many times before physical symptoms are present. Some serious eye conditions have no immediately obvious signs or symptoms, such as glaucoma or macular degeneration, and take a comprehensive eye exam to detect. Regardless of visible symptoms, a comprehensive eye exam is a must every year, Dr. Nakamura recommends.

The right toys can help kids’ development (StatePoint) What your children play with can have a large impact on their interests and brain development. So when it comes to a walk down the toy aisle, parents are becoming more discerning, leading smart toymakers to design toys with a

“Toys that emphasize numbers, counting and beginning concepts with whole number operations will develop, support and encourage these crucial concepts and skills.” • Age-appropriate: “Children's brains are

learning component that’s equally as important as the fun. • Add it up: “Mathematical foundations provide the building blocks for future mathematical success, both in school and beyond,” says Dr. Francis (Skip) Fennell, mathematics educator.

developing at a remarkable speed,” says Dr. Lise Eliot, an early childhood development expert. “Their toys should keep up with that growth.” Keep kids challenged with educational toys that are age-appropriate, so they are never bored or frustrated. Consider child-

sized, kid-friendly tablets that are packed with educational, stage-based learning content. • Full STEAM ahead: Science, technology, engineering and mathematics (collectively known as STEM) have gained more visibility in schools, along with the addition of arts to form STEAM. However, says Dr. Carla C. Johnson, science and STEM expert, “It is still crucial to cultivate skills in these subjects and implement them in everyday learning. Educational toys can help kids develop self-confidence in the use and application of these important disciplines.” • Build vocabulary: “Children absorb new information like sponges. Take advantage of their blossoming interests with interactive toys that highlight letters of the alphabet, the sounds letters make and vocabulary,” says Dr. Deborah Sharp Libby, early childhood language and reading expert. “Above all, don't forget the importance of reading to and with your children often!” • Choose wisely: “Don’t get carried away with the bells and whistles. You and your kids will quickly look past those. Instead, look for toys that actively engage your kids through technology, by deeply integrating games and learning,” says Dr. Eric Klopfer, platform learning expert. Remember, each child grows at his or her own pace, and there are few hard and fast deadlines when it comes to a child’s milestones.

Americans need to relax more

(StatePoint) Nearly all Americans understand that relaxation time is essential to good health, yet most of us don’t spend nearly enough time unwinding during a typical day or week. While our society acknowledges that kicking back is indispensable, we don’t seem to be practicing what we preach. Indeed, 99 percent of Americans think relaxation is important, yet they actually spend less than 5 percent of their day relaxing,

according a new independent research study. The goal of the research was to better understand the latest trends about how many of us actually relax and how we go about doing it. Nearly half of Americans report they’re more stressed than their significant other, with a whopping 82 percent of men indicating that their partner is the stressed out one.

Music topped the list of relaxation techniques for those surveyed, with 48 percent reporting music helps them take it easy. Interestingly, only 18 percent find exercise is a good relaxation tool. The most surprising findings were that relaxation causes 62 percent of parents to feel guilty and that nearly one third of Americans surveyed reported being stressed out simply by the thought of relaxing!

Make your home more peaceful Different colors evoke different feelings so paint your walls stress-reducing colors (StatePoint) Life is busy and loud. A home used to be a relaxing, calming haven to hide away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. But with televisions in every room and a constant connection to the outside world through tablets, laptops and smartphones, finding a fortress of solitude, or even a room of quiet, has become a near impossible task. If you long to create more serenity in your home, consider taking the following steps: • Organize. Just looking at a cluttered room can make one anxious. If you find that even after you organize a space, it is hard to maintain, come up with a daily routine to simplify the process. For example, sort and process your mail and bills first thing when you get home so papers don’t stack up. Once regular organizing becomes a habit, it will be easier, less time consuming and increase serenity. • Set the mood. Your home is the one place you have complete freedom to set the mood. Different colors can evoke different feelings. So paint your walls in stress-reducing colors, such as something in the blue family, or a muted green or lavender. Use soft lighting and a musical soundtrack to help you reach your happy place. • Insulate. Perhaps the most tangible step you can take to find quiet is to insulate your home’s interior walls, ceilings and floors to reduce noise transfer between rooms. Look for insulation that provides a high sound absorption against low frequency ranges, which are

the most difficult to block. For example, stone wool insulation is made from natural stone and recycled content. Resistant to water, rot, mold, mildew and bacterial growth, it is not only an excellent acoustic barrier, it doesn’t burn, and can add valuable time for evacuation in the event of a fire.

• Design. When decorating your home, take into consideration the size and feel of a space so you can scale your furniture and decorations to fit the room appropriately. For example, a sofa that worked in your last home may feel too small in your current living room, making the room feel off balance.

Regular exercise may stem aging effects

(StatePoint) One out of every three adults over 65 years old falls each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And for older adults with dementia, the risk of falling is three times higher than those with no cognitive impairment, according to the AARP Bulletin. However, research supports the notion that many of the physiological changes related to aging -- such as loss of balance -- can be prevented or postponed with regular exercise. With this in mind, it’s no surprise that many senior living communities are making comprehensive health and wellness programs available to their residents. “We’re seeing residents increase their mobility, endurance and balance, and improve their range of motion and fitness levels,” says Katie Westberg, national director of Life Enrich-

ment at The Goodman Group, a company that has developed a new fitness program for its senior living and health care communities. Additionally, Westberg cites that participants feel better and are having fun, showing quick results to their overall well-being, “Many of the residents start seeing long-lasting and significant strength training benefits within an eight to 16 week period.” Here are some tips for older adults looking to improve your well-being and restore your vigor. • Engage in exercises that can improve your core strength, balance and cardiovascular health. If you live in a senior living community, inquire about on-site programs. Additionally, many community centers and health clubs conduct exercise classes designed

specifically for senior health. • Invest in a stationary bike. It’s easy to incorporate this activity into your day while watching TV, listening to music or talking to your family, and pedaling lowers blood pressure, according to AARP. • Consult your physician before getting started. Your exercise routine should take into account your current health level and functionality as well as your physical needs. • Food and health are directly correlated, so pair your exercise with healthy eating. Include local, organic, seasonal produce as well as lean protein alternatives and plant strong ingredients in your menu options. • Stick to it. Results may come quickly, but a long-term health benefit requires commitment.
