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: When we sign the papers to sell my house, how much money will I really get? What am I responsible for paying?

the answer: When you go to closing as a Seller you do not usually receive the entire purchase price. The amount of the Seller’s check is reduced by: Any commission that is paid to the Real Estate Agents involved; Reduced by any payoffs to secured lenders; Reduced by attorney fees for document preparation; Reduced by excise or revenue stamps paid, this is based on your purchase and paid to the County as a type of tax; Reduce by the seller’s portion of property taxes as prorated through the date of closing. Plan for these factors so that you know what to expect at closing. This is an advertisment and should not be considered a legal opinion between an attorney and a client. Call an attorney.

Real Estate Closings *Affordable *Experienced *Accessible When your Agent or Lender asks who your Attorney is, tell them Phillip C. Price.

Boost baby & toddler brain development (StatePoint) While formal education may not begin until age five, those years preceding classroom learning are crucial to brain development. You can get your child started on the right path early on by encouraging learning whenever possible. Sing a Song Simple songs can be a fun and helpful way to reinforce basic concepts like numbers, letters and animals. Sing with your little one in the car, or when you have free time at home. Great choices include “Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes,” “The Alphabet Song,” and “The Wheels on the Bus.” Stock your home with simple instruments like kazoos, tambourines, and mini keyboards built for little fingers to encourage impromptu solos. Also, consider enrolling your child in music classes, which can be a great way to lay the foundation for music instruction later in life. Colorful Books “Books for young children should also be learning tools that help build vocabulary and language skills,” says Sophie Mitchell, preschool

publisher at DK Publishing. For newborns, Mitchell recommends books that feature bright, bold colors and vivid patterns that are easy to hold, for sharing between baby and parent. “Babies love to hear the sound of their parent’s voices, so read enthusiastically to your child,” she says. Mitchell also recommends that parents choose books that are filled with the things babies find fascinating, such as images of others babies, toddlers, animals and vehicles. Toddlers love pointing out things they know and saying the words out loud. They appreciate book content that features images of their real world. Surprise elements like flaps, sounds, pull tabs and textures can provoke curiosity and engage reluctant readers. “Preschool-aged children need clear, appealing subjects which capture their preoccupations and passions,” adds Mitchell. For this age group memory is a very important reading skill to develop, so parents should look for titles that include fun, repetitive text. Clear word labels can help young children make

associations between images and words. For an early learning library, consider introducing your tykes to the “My First” board book series. First published in 1989, these iconic little books have now been reimagined for a new generation. With titles like “My First Animals,” “My First Colors,” and “My First Words,” they are packed with bright, colorful photographs and large easy-to-read text to captivate budding readers. More information about the series can be found at www.Dk.com. Be Active Babies, toddlers and preschoolers need lots of mental stimulation for brain development. Rather than simply sitting them in front of the television, take little trips that can foster questions and observations. Whether that be the playground, the zoo or even a run-of-the-mill trip to the grocery store, these experiences are crucial for early learning. Talk to your child throughout the trip, pointing out things you see. When you get home, you can reinforce the real-world concepts with learning books.

Five foods you need to try (StatePoint) Whether you live for culinary adventure or unfamiliar items on your plate make you nervous, trying new foods is a worthwhile endeavor. But even avid foodies don’t have the time to try everything. Enter, “1,000 Foods to Eat Before You Die,” a new book that presents the globe’s musthave foods into one master list of the best dishes, ingredients, restaurants, markets, books and movies, that everyone should experience. To whet your appetite, author Mimi Sheraton, former New York Times restaurant critic and award-winning cookbook author, shares five food must-haves originating from five regions of the world: White Asparagus -- Europe Milder in flavor than the green variety, white asparagus is highly prized in Europe, while in the U.S. it has only recently come into favor. A harbinger of spring, asparagus is celebrated in Belgium, Holland, Germany, Austria and Switzerland, where special asparagus menus are featured in restaurants.

For an Italian approach, serve cold with lemon juice and olive oil. If you prefer elaborate flavors, serve with a Hollandaise sauce of egg yolks, lemon juice, butter and nutmeg. Egg Cream -- United States A New York original, egg creams contain neither eggs nor cream. A once ubiquitous street treat, this beverage is a lot harder to come by now. Make your own at home with a squirt of chocolate syrup, followed by a shot of seltzer and a quick stir, then add a trickle of whole milk and stir vigorously while blasting in vibrant shots of soda to create a frothy, creamy concoction. Tagine -- North African Like the pans Americans call “casseroles,” a tagine is both a cooking vessel and the stew cooked within. A tagine is a deep, wide terracotta bowl, with a high-peaked conical cover that directs and concentrates heat. Meats, poultry or fish are slow cooked with various vegetables over direct fire or charcoal, absorbing aromatic spices such as saffron,

cinnamon and ginger. To serve, tangines are fitted into colorfully woven baskets and passed around to guests, along with rice, couscous or fresh, hot bread. Congee -- Asia Like Westerners, the Chinese believe in starting the day with a hearty meal. Congee, a creamy rice porridge, is a favorite. Variations found throughout Asia are sold everywhere, from street stands to dim sum palaces. To prepare, cook short grain white rice until it approaches mush, then serve with a variety of toppings, such as spicy, pickled vegetables, dried fish, preserved eggs and tofu. Vegemite -- Australia Australian children cry for this caramelized spread made of brewer’s yeast and vegetables, as American tots do for peanut butter and jelly. Spread on buttered toast or bread as a snack or a sandwich, or on biscuits as a special treat at teatime, Vegemite may not be pretty, but it is one of the world’s most iconic foods and definitely worth a try.

Make your skin more beautiful

(StatePoint) Just by being outside every day, skin suffers from premature aging, an effect known as photo aging. A majority of Americans mistakenly believe they receive most of their total lifetime exposure from extended outdoor activities like going to the beach, according to a new survey conducted using GfK’s Knowledge Panel. "Actually, those activities account for a mere 20 percent of lifetime sun exposure," says Dr. Richard C. Kirkpatrick of the Brevard Skin and Cancer Center. "In fact, 80 percent comes from daily incidental sun exposure that builds up over time and ages the skin." Protecting skin all over your body, even during hazy and cloudy days, is crucial.

Most Americans underestimate the damage to their skin from brief daily sun exposure. In fact, fewer than half agree that short exposures to the sun cause a lot of skin damage. But now that you know better, you can make a positive change. Cover Up Remember to cover up all the time to protect your skin from the effects of photo aging, even when you’re driving, sitting indoors next to a sunny window or taking the dog for a quick walk. Multi-Functional Skin Care No matter how much attention you give your face, it is the constant UV damage to the skin on your arms, legs, chest, and hands that can give away your age. A top notch skin care rou-

tine for the entire body is essential. Whereas in the past, preventing premature aging of skin on your entire body could cost a small fortune, there are now affordable, innovative alternatives “Look for a multi-functional body moisturizer with a blend of antioxidants, vitamins, broad spectrum SPF protection and brightening ingredients,” says Kirkpatrick. Your skin is a reflection of your overall health. Stay hydrated. Eat a well-balanced diet of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy and lean proteins, such as fish, egg whites and legumes. Get plenty of rest each night. These habits can help you look and feel your best.
