HOW TO FIND A HOME IN A

SELLER’S MARKET In a seller’s market, there are more buyers looking for a home than there are houses available. That means sellers may have an advantage, since multiple buyers may be interested in purchasing their home. If you’re looking to buy a house in a seller’s market, it’s important to know what to expect and to be prepared so you can avoid common pitfalls.

Get Pre-Approved Before you start shopping for a house, you should get pre-approved for a mortgage. That means you will submit your financial information and supporting documents to a lender, and it will review them to decide how much you can afford to pay for a house. Being pre-approved will demonstrate to a seller that you are in a good financial position, can afford a house and will be able to move forward quickly.

Creative Living 78 Digestsize.indd 3

The amount a lender pre-approves you for is not necessarily the amount you should spend. The lender may not consider all your monthly expenses, such as childcare, or other costs of homeownership, such as property taxes, private mortgage insurance, homeowners insurance, maintenance and repairs. Assess your overall financial circumstances to figure out how much you can comfortably afford to spend for monthly mortgage payments.

8/12/21 9:51 AM

Make a Competitive and Realistic Offer You want to get a home at a good price, but in a seller’s market, you may be competing with one or more other buyers who are interested in the same house. To have a better chance at becoming the new owner, you need to present a competitive offer right off the bat. If you try to start negotiations by submitting a low bid, you may not get a chance to negotiate at all because the seller may simply choose a buyer who made a higher offer. Don’t make an initial offer for the maximum amount you can afford. In a seller’s market, bidding wars are common. You may find that because competition is fierce, the only way to win a bidding war is to offer more than the list price. That doesn’t mean you should go over your budget—it means you should focus on homes with asking prices below the amount you can afford so you will have room to negotiate. If another buyer submits a bid that is higher than what you can afford, be prepared to walk away and look for another house that’s a better fit for your budget.

Get Help From a Knowledgeable Real Estate Agent An experienced real estate agent who is familiar with the local market can guide you through the process of looking for a new home. An agent can help you decide how much to offer so you can hopefully get the house you want at a competitive price without being outbid by another buyer. If you can’t find a home with the features you want in your price range, your agent may recommend that you consider another neighborhood or city with lower home prices.

4 TIPS FOR BUYERS TO

OVERCOME LOW INVENTORY A booming real estate market can present plenty of challenges to homebuyers, one of which is low inventory. When you find yourself in a highly competitive market that faces a shortage of listings, it’s important to work with an agent who has an in-depth understanding of how to navigate the situation. Following are several tips to help ensure you can achieve your goals, even when facing low inventory.

ASK ABOUT POCKET LISTINGS

MAKE A STRONG OFFER

In the luxury sector, in particular, it’s quite common for sellers to quietly list their property rather than blasting it all over the internet. A savvy real estate agent who’s plugged into the local market can help get you access to these pocket listings that are discreetly marketed by word-of-mouth. Furthermore, your agent should also be able to keep aware of any premarket listings that are ready to be listed but not yet marketed online, to help you get a jump start ahead of the pack.

When sellers receive multiple offers, it’s not always the highest one that’s the most appealing. In fact, there are other ways to set your offer apart, such as making a cash offer or waiving contingencies. In the event that another buyer offers the same amount, this can give you a competitive advantage.

GET READY TO ACT FAST In a hyper-competitive market, speed can make all the difference. That’s why it’s always a good idea to get pre-approved for a mortgage even before you find the ideal home so that you know exactly how much you can offer and are positioned to act quickly when the time comes. The last thing you want is to miss out on an opportunity while waiting to get approved.

Creative Living 78 Digestsize.indd 8

BE PREPARED FOR A BIDDING WAR No buyer wants to find themselves in a bidding war for a property, but it’s all too common in a market with low inventory. If this happens, it’s important to know your limit beforehand and take the time to consider what the home is worth to you versus its current market value. After all, it can be difficult to put a price on the perfect home, especially once you’ve started getting attached to the idea of it.

AFFORDABLE WAYS TO ADD STORAGE TO YOUR KITCHEN

t doesn’t matter how big your kitchen is. Since we tend to spread out and use however much storage space we have, sooner or later, everyone runs out of space. If your kitchen is short on storage options, there’s no need to embark on a renovation. Instead, consider these great ideas from Consumer Reports for adding more options for stashing kitchen supplies and groceries. A ROLLING KITCHEN CART You might be considering installing a swanky kitchen island, but that can cost big bucks. Instead, invest in a stylish rolling cart that provides many of the same advantages at a fraction of the cost. When it comes to carts, you can get as fancy as you’d like—many have fold-down tables and hideaway stools, for example, providing you with extra seating options when needed.

CABINET ORGANIZERS You can get more mileage out of your existing cabinet space by retrofitting them with organizers. Install a Lazy Susan in a corner, for example, so you don’t lose track of items buried in the back. Roll-out drawers in base cabinets allow you to pack more in and easily access whatever you may need. If you’ve got a large pantry, install tiered shelves to give you an at-a-glance view of kitchen staples like canned goods, spices and baking supplies. TOE-KICK DRAWER These secret hiding spots can be placed at the base of your cabinets and open with just the push of your foot. Use them to store school and office supplies, gift wrap supplies, first-aid items or whatever else you may not need on a daily basis. Adding these space-saving organizers to your kitchen will not only make your life easier, but will surely appeal to prospective homebuyers when it comes time to put your home on the market.

Paint Colors THAT DESIGNERS RECOMMEND

Some people are happy with a room full of neutrals. Others want their home to make a statement. Whether you are diving into a remodel or simply want to freshen up your living space with a new coat of paint, you may want to look into the trending paint colors that today’s designers are recommending most.

Creative Living 79 Digestsize.indd 6

9/7/21 3:23 PM

BLISSFUL BLUE - Sold at Lowes and other retailers, this intense grey-blue is perfect for dreamy bedrooms, pairing well with a variety of accessory colors in pinks, yellows, whites or dusty lavenders to cheer you when you wake up in the morning.

GREEN SMOKE - Made by Farrow and Bell, this dusty green has a nice amount of gray in it, which makes it subdued, yet dramatic. It’s a deep, rich but soft green color that makes a good choice for powder rooms, libraries and dens, or anywhere you want a chic and sophisticated look.

CHANTILLY LACE - A Benjamin Moore shade, this is a cool, crisp off-white that opens up a room and makes it feel airy and clean. It pairs beautifully with Simply White trim color for a nice warm-cool contrast in your living room or den.

CLASSIC GREY - Available from a variety of paint manufacturers, classic grey is still a top designer pick that brings soft warmth to a room and does not distract from artwork or any bright furniture colors. It is a nice backdrop for any room from your kitchen to your bedroom, or even all throughout the house.

COMPATIBLE CREAM - By Sherwin Williams, this creamy yellow is very flexible, not too sunny, but bright enough to work well for the kitchen and/or dining room. It’s warm, inviting and plays well when coordinating colors in adjoining rooms.

DUSTY LAVENDER - From Valspar comes this cheerful and feminine shade perfect for teen or master bedrooms. Paired with white trim, it’s a sassy, almost can’t-miss choice when you want a look that is more sophisticated than pink.

AEGEAN TEAL - A deep rich teal from Benjamin Moore, this color is reminiscent of the shimmering waters of Ibiza on a warm, sunny day. It’s a bold choice synonymous with serenity, perfect for the right bedroom or office.

TOP TIPS FOR MAXIMIZING YOUR WALLS Balancing aesthetics with storage-friendly solutions and your personal style can be a chore, but when you find that balance and truly maximize your walls there are big advantages for your living space. Find your wall’s true potential with these ideas.

Creative Living 79 Digestsize.indd 1

9/7/21 3:22 PM

FLOATING SHELVES While floating shelves are nothing new, they are certainly an ideal addition to your space for a reason. A storage solution with a minimalist footprint, floating shelves easily allows homeowners to strike that perfect balance between decor-friendly and practical. Add them in spaces where you need to store books or cookbooks, small collections or photographs. Remember to keep your display visually pleasing by arranging books in stacks, adding small plants and catering to storage needs and design simultaneously. HAND PAINTED ART Nothing can breathe life to any room like hand painted art on your walls. Take advantage of your wall space by choosing a painting that adds a pop of color and cheer. If artwork sounds like an expense you are not ready to pull the trigger on, consider browsing local college’s art galleries for sale pieces, or join a paint and sip class and try your hand at creating a statement piece that you’ll be proud to call your own. PEGBOARDS While they aren’t the most artistic item you can put on your wall, pegboards are ideal for kitchens, garages, sheds and kids’ rooms. In any area where additional storage is needed, a pegboard and S hooks can come in handy. To make your practical storage a little more visually pleasing, consider painting your plain pegboard to coordinate your room’s decor. PHOTOGRAPHS Art can serve to bring a whole mood to life in your space, but nothing can make a house feel like home quite like personal photographs. Whether you choose to display professionally captured family photos, or simply want to create a gallery of candid pictures of your friends and loved ones, you will be sure to feel more at home than ever before. Vertical space is plentiful in many homes, but it often goes underutilized. Getting the most out of your walls is vital to ensure that your room truly reflects your personal style and also meets your storage and display needs. These tips are sure to help you take advantage of the empty walls in your home. Reprinted with permission from RISMedia. ©2021. All rights reserved.

FINDING A SECOND HOME YOU CAN USE

YEAR-ROUND

There’s nothing like having a vacation home where you can go to escape daily stress and spend quality time with the people who matter most. Often, however, a secondary residence may only be used for part of the year, such as a summer beach home or winter ski lodge. If you’re looking for a vacation property that can be put to good use throughout the year, here are several tips to help guide your search.

Creative Living 79 Digestsize.indd 3

9/7/21 3:23 PM

ACTIVITIES FOR EVERY SEASON A year-round getaway will give you access to different activities each season. For example, a lake home where you can enjoy the water in the summer, hiking trails in the fall and cross country skiing in the winter is surely going to provide endless fun for the whole family, no matter what time of year it is.

SENSE OF COMMUNITY Many resort destinations can turn into ghost towns for part of the year, which can feel a little isolating when you go there during the off-season. For this reason, you may want to consider a community with year-round residents, so you know that there will always be plenty of things to do.

VERSATILE AESTHETIC While its impact might be more psychological than anything, a home’s interior design can certainly affect how you use it. For instance, a summer home that’s decorated with a cool and breezy aesthetic might feel too cold in the winter and lack a cozy ambiance. That’s why a year-round home should embrace a look that lends itself to any season.

CONSIDER THE CLIMATE Of course, some destinations simply cannot be enjoyed throughout the entire year because of the climate. Whether it’s too hot in the summer or too cold in the winter, there’s no getting around it when the weather isn’t on your side. The best solution is to choose a location with a favorable year-round climate. Reprinted with permission from RISMedia. ©2021. All rights reserved.

House Cleaning Tips to Steal From the Pros When it comes to spring cleaning, or housekeeping any time of the year, nobody knows how to make it more efficient than professional home and hotel cleaners. Try these tips from the pros in your own home.

Stock up on gloves and microfiber cloths. Rubber gloves can help you through a variety of messy tasks without soaking your hands in water or chemicals. Microfiber cloths can be used wet for kitchen and bath cleaning, or dry for thorough dusting. Simplify your cleaning products. You should not need more than three or four products, including a mix of vinegar and water in a spray bottle, to tackle every cleaning job in every room of your house. Keep cleaning tools handy. Having products and rags in a moveable carry-case, and brooms and a vacuum in a central spot, saves time and energy. In a two-story home, keep a second vacuum upstairs for quick and easy pick-ups. Clean the kitchen every day that you cook. Not the whole kitchen, but the range, the counters to the side of it, the refrigerator handle and the sink. New kitchen dirt is easy to clean, but old kitchen dirt can harden into rock.

Creative Living 79 Digestsize.indd 5

Don’t get bogged down with clutter. Spend some time once or twice a month sorting and putting clutter where it belongs. In between, just pick up those light piles of mail and magazines and clean under and around them. Keep your pets brushed. It will minimize the time you spend dusting and vacuuming. Have a cleaning path. Whether it’s back of the house to the front, or tougher rooms first, know the route you will take. In any case, clean from the top down, ceilings first, so floors that catch the dust and debris are the last to be swept and/ or vacuumed. Start with the worst challenge in a room. In the kitchen, it’s the range. In the bathroom, it’s the shower. In the dining room, it may be the chandelier. Once you complete the main challenge, the rest of the room is easy.
