Book for first-time buyers on Amazon

‌H

ello, Edith: Is there a way for us to access your recent article on financing for first-time homeowners? We enjoy your column and thank you for any information you can provide. — S. and J. Answer: More than 20 EDITH LANK years ago, I wrote a book called “The Home Buyer’s Kit.” It went through several editions but is out of print now.

Recently, though, a couple wrote to say they bought it used on Amazon. I would have thought much of the information is out of date, but they wanted to say thank you; they found it really helpful.

Thinks 80 Is Old

Ms. Lank: Actually, I do not have a question, although I’ve submitted a couple of times over the years. I was going through some old papers I’d put aside and saw that you’re in your 80s, I believe. As a 70-year-old guy, I wanted to say, “Way to go!” I hope my wits will be as sharp as yours at that point. — askedith.com Answer: You’ve got two things wrong.

I’m in my 90s now, not my 80s. And as for those sharp wits, the internet came along just in time for my old age. These days, whatever I’ve forgotten I can look up.

But anyhow, thanks for the kind words.

No Addresses

Dear Edith: I don’t know if this is column worthy or something for you to pass along in another way, or maybe I’m just venting, but there is a trend in real estate advertising that has me steaming.

Many newspaper real estate ads no longer include an address. If there is an ad that catches my attention, I’m then required to go to the computer to find out where it’s actually located. I’m more interested in the address than the listing agents’ claims about it being a “mustsee” or having a “charming landscape.”

In fact, I’ll bet I’ve ignored dozens of otherwise interesting listings because they wouldn’t tell me where it was! — M. W. Answer: That’s because they want you to give them a call or go to their webpage.

I found myself smiling as I read your note because I remember many years ago, when you couldn’t just “go to the computer” to find an address. Frankly, that doesn’t seem like all that much work.

Nevertheless, I’ll be happy to pass along

your complaint. Good luck with your search.

3 bdrm, 1-1/2 story N’side home with lots of potential!! This is a short sale & bank has given a little wiggle room for buyer closing cost or redecorating allowance! Sold “AS-IS”!

Worried Borrowers

Dear Ms. Lank: In 2002, we financed our mortgage with Bank A. Two years later, we refinanced with Bank B. The title Insurance submitted for recording in our town read as follows: “Mortgage made by us to Bank A in the amount of 120K, dated May 1, 2002, and recorded June 3, 2002 in Liber— at Page —- ... has been assigned to Bank B ..., which said mortgage has been reduced to 105K and a new mortgage made by us to Bank B in the amount of 45K dated March 10,2004, and being duly recorded ... which said mortgages are consolidated, extended and modified by agreement dated March 10, 2004 and being duly recorded in the Office of our county which said agreement consolidates said mortgages to form a single lien...”

Then, Bank B was bought by Bank C. We fully paid off Bank C and got a satisfaction letter from it. However, when we checked with our county, Bank A still shows as having a lien on the property. We did not receive a satisfaction letter from Bank A, but we do have a copy of a check made out to Bank B by the lawyer of Bank B. In this kind of a situation, how can we get a satisfaction letter from Bank A? To our knowledge, Bank A is no longer in business.

During that time, we were relying on the bank lawyer and title insurance company to satisfy the requirements of the county.

— askedith.com Answer: The county requirements don’t constitute proof of ownership. They simply provide a public repository for legal documents. In the future, if there were a problem, it would be with prospective buyers of your property. They wouldn’t want to buy if Bank A’s mortgage still shows a financial claim against the property.

I’m not sure you have a problem, but I’m not qualified to judge. Why not ask your own lawyer to see if anything needs straightening out — and if it does, to please take care of it?

Trick to saving water is to change out old fixtures ‌ Q uestion: Dear Ed: Like most families, we want to cut down on our home’s water usage. To be honest, other than taking shorter ED DEL showers I’m not sure GRANDE where to start. What are your recommendations for easy ways average families can save water?

- Joe, Ohio Answer: Most homeowners overlook this added benefit when it comes to saving water. In most cases if you lower your town water use, your town sewer costs can also be lowered. If you have a well and septic tank, using less water can lead to lower maintenance costs as well.

So, updating to water-saving plumbing fixtures is one of the best investments you can make for your home.

Most older plumbing fixtures were not designed to be high-efficiency plumbing fixtures. So, the easy trick to saving water is to remove older water-wasting

fixtures and install new high-efficiency plumbing fixtures. This way, you really don’t have to change your lifestyle. The new fixtures do the water saving work for you.

Look for toilets that use less than 1.3 gallons per flush, showerheads that use 1.75 gallons per minute (gpm) or less and bathroom faucets that use 1.5 gpm.

The good news is you don’t have to upgrade all your fixtures at once. Start with the toilet first, then let your water-saving upgrade projects flow from there.

STYLE AT HOME

A new lamp is a bright idea

E

very time I walked past the little bar cart in my living room, something just bugged me. Something was off about the display. It looked nice, but didn’t wow me. Then I put my finger on it. It needed a new lamp.

The white lamp I had on the bar cart just didn’t add much to the display, so I swapped it out for a new one. Truth be told, I had been itching to MARY get this unique red CAROL floral lamp into my GARRITY cottage somehow, somewhere. And the bar cart turned out to be the perfect place.

Lamps are design super heroes.

They swoop in and save the day.

Trading an old, tired lamp with a new one can refresh a room. Our customers often bring us photos of their homes and ask for ideas on how to update their spaces.

Almost always, we recommend retiring their dated lighting for new lamps. Presto: The room looks newer, fresher.

What’s big in lighting these days? Honestly, just about everything. We’re showing a lot of lamps with colorful ceramic bases, from traditional or contemporary blue and white patterns to chinoiserie in all colors.

Metals have made a huge comeback, too, and we’re selling lots of oil-rubbed brass. (I will be blogging about brass’s comeback next week.)

We like lamps that have some heft, with clean lines. They add some presence.

Gone are the small, dark lampMary Carol Garrity’s bar cart needed a new lamp. shades of yesterday. Today’s lampshades are larger drum shapes in white. Not only do these big, open, light shades look clean and modern, they also ensure the lamps really can light up the space around them. These are lamps you can read by.

There are no rules to follow when deciding whether or not to mix all the lamps in a room, with no two alike, or to having a matched pair on either side of your sofa or dining room buffet.

The choice is yours, because everything is in now.

For example, in my living room, I used to have a single lamp on the console table behind my sofa. Now that I’m so crazy about houseplants, I decided to rework the table. I put a large plant in a cachepot at the center and flanked it by two matching pharmacy lamps.

7 decorating mistakes

Mistake 3: buying a rug that’s too small

ence, but it’s just terribly distracting.”

While some agree that art should be hung at eye level, the stylist stresses that For Henderson, one of the main offend- this doesn’t apply in every case. “Yes, ers in living room decorating is the poorly the art should be at eye level, but not if your ceilings are really low and not if sized rug. “America has been suffering you are really tall,” she says. “If the wall for too long from ‘small rug’ syndrome,” were cut up vertically into four sections she says. “I see it virtually every day, and (going from bottom to top), think of the it pains me – especially when it can be so art being in the third quadrant (counting easily avoided.” Huge rugs can be expensive and can feel like such a scary commit- from the floor),” says Henderson.

DREAMSTIME‌ ment, but according to the stylist, it’s one Designers agree: A great living room starts of the most important aspects of a room.

Just like a beautifully directed movie, a well-decorated living room is at once engaging and impressive, but it’s also familiar and safe. Trying to replicate this attention to detail in our own homes, though, is another challenge. As much as we try to replicate the feelings we’ve experienced in certain rooms (that we’ve visited and loved), there’s usually something that’s just off.

Interior designers spend their lives studying the little details that make a room perfect. And sometimes, what is wrong in our own living rooms can be as simple as a painting hung too high or a lack of eye-level lamps. To shed some light on the most common living room decorating mistakes that may be plaguing our spaces, we asked a stylist, an interior designer and a residential architect to share the decorating mistakes they frequently notice in living rooms everywhere. The living room of your dreams may not be so out of reach—simply fix these mistakes, and then enjoy your new and improved space.

Cold weather can damage early blooming plants Q uestion: Wow, what a cold spring we are having. I have a lot of perennials in my yard, and the worse-looking ones are nearest the house. I thought they JEFF RUGG would get the most protection, but I must be wrong.

What can I do for them now, and what can I do to keep them from having problems next time?

Answer: The problem for many early

blooming plants isn’t the cold spell itself but the timing of it. The previous couple of weeks had been warm, not just seasonally warm but very warm. This caused many plants to speed up their growth, since plant growth rates are related to air temperature.

As plants begin spring growth, they consume the antifreeze sugar chemicals that were protecting their cells all winter, and they lose their ability to resist the cold.

Plants near buildings or in sunny spots

progressed faster and lost more of their ability to resist cold. They were, in effect, further into spring than the calendar. If the night and daytime temperatures had gone back to a normal cool spring range, the plants would have been fine. Instead, they plunged well below freezing not just at night but all day, and in many places.

The areas that received snow were the lucky ones as far as the plants were concerned. Snow acts as an insulating blanket

that stops the cold at around 30 degrees F instead of the air temperature that dropped below 10 degrees in some areas.

At this point, all the damage is done.

There could be another warm and cold spell, but let’s hope that doesn’t come.

Spring bulbs, perennials, shrubs and trees are long-lived and will bloom again next year. The few stems that were damaged may Please see RUGG, Page H15

For small home repairs, call a handyman

‌I

f you’re like most of us, there are a number of small home repairs you’d like to take care of but can never find the time for. Unfortunately, left unchecked, many small home repairs can turn into big, expensive problems. But there is a solution. If you don’t have the time to worry about every minor repair on your list, hiring a handyman service is a great way to get multiple small jobs done without carving out time for multiple home service appointments.

plex problem, the specialist is generally the way to go. For example, if you have a stair that squeaks or a faucet that drips, hiring a handyman is probably your best bet. On the other hand, if you have a whole set of stairs to replace or a house full of two-pronged outlets that need to be upgraded, you’re better off hiring a pro.

The reason is simple: Having several

small home repairs handled by a single handyman company is going to be cheaper than hiring three or four specialists. On the other hand, when dealing with a single severe problem, the specialized contractor will often have the equipment and expertise to more efficiently make the repair. You should also keep in mind that if any “small” home repair is valued at over $500, your state may

require that you hire a properly licensed contractor.

What small repairs are handyman companies likely to fix?

The beauty of the handyman company is most are pretty flexible when it comes to the services they offer. Of course, faulty faucets and sticking doors are handyman-friendly projects, but if you have something a little more substantial or obscure, they’re likely to be able to handle that, too. Go over your list with your handyman prior to their visit to ensure the most effective and quickest repairs possible. A handyman may be able to mend everything from a plugged shower drain to a rickety antique bed frame, but there’s a good chance they’ll need to make a trip to the hardware store to stock the supplies necessary to complete all of your projects.

List all small repairs before you call a handyman company If you decide to hire a handyman company, it’s a good idea to have a list of small repairs ready. Taking a close inventory of every small repair will eliminate the need for multiple visits. Additionally, many small home repairs require a considerable amount of setup. For example, fixing holes in drywall involves first preparing joint compound. Since there is little difference in preparing enough for one large hole and preparing enough for one large hole and six small holes, making a list of these smaller holes will allow you to have them quickly fixed within the same visit and pricing structure.

The cost of small home repairs

It’s easy to think hiring a handyman will be cheaper than hiring a contractor, but this assumption is only true in certain situations. Handyman services are typically hired to perform multiple small home repairs and can cost less as a result.

However, if you have a one specific, com-

A handyman can make a number of small repairs all at once, saving you time and money.

Rugg From H12

need to be pruned, but let’s wait until midMay or so to see how the plants cope with the damage before we do too much pruning.

Q: We planted roses and have discovered an organic mulch made of coconut husk, or coir. Have you ever used this product? My wife believes it retains moisture so well that we are watering about 40 percent less than usual. Our climate is arid and hot in the summer. We have had water restrictions for many years and find that watering less but still having moisture in the soil is great for the plants.

The mulch comes in a compressed form that expands to 2 cubic feet when mixed with 5 gallons of water. It’s incredible to watch the hydration! Are you aware of this mulch, and are the benefits really as good as advertised? Our nursery swears by it, and it sells a wide variety of ground coverings.

Thanks for any news or experience you have had with it.

A: You have provided a good testimony for the benefits of coir.

Coir fibers are the mass of stuff that surrounds the shell of a coconut. White coir is harvested from coconuts that are not ripe.

The fibers are smooth and fine and weaker

than the thick brown fibers that come from ripe coconuts. White fibers are used to make yarn for mats or rope. Brown fibers are used to make stronger mats and sacks.

The fibers are waterproof and very resistant to saltwater damage.

Coir fibers and the leftover smaller particles produced in the process make an excellent organic matter that can be used

to amend soil. It opens up heavy clay soils so air and water flow better. It can be used in sandy soils to hold moisture. Each of the fibers is hollow and holds water like a sponge.

It is less damaging ecologically than peat mining, and for people concerned about loss of peat bogs, it would make a good organic matter substitute. Coir can be used on top of the soil as mulch. It is slowly broken down by bacteria and fungi, so it doesn’t have to be added over and over again.

Do not confuse coconut coir with cocoa shell mulch. This mulch is produced during the process of roasting cocoa beans.

A Realtor with United Real Estate Solutions How long have you been a Realtor?

10 years Where are you from?

Sioux City Why did you choose to be a Realtor?

I thought it seemed like an exciting career path and one that could be very rewarding as well if you worked hard. I used to work for a large company and most jobs can be very monotonous; in real estate every day is different.

What is your favorite house style?

Ranch What accomplishment are you most proud of?

Graduating with honors from the University of Iowa School of Business What’s your hidden talent?

Cooking What was your childhood nickname?

People have always just called me Stokes.

What is the No. 1 most played song on your iPod? “No woman, no cry,” Bob Marley What is one of your favorite quotes?

“Can’t never did anything” If you could have dinner with any three people, dead or alive, who would they be?

My three kids

AdAm StokES 712-204-1414

Who would play you in a movie?

People say I look like University of Arizona Men’s basketball coach Sean Miller. If they made a documentary about him I would be a slam dunk.

Who’s your favorite movie character?

Rocky Android or iPhone? iPhone What’s your favorite meal?

Pizza If you could only take 3 items to a desert island, what would they be?

Knife, lighter, fishing net When you’re not at the office, where can people find you?

Coaching or watching my kids play sports. If I have time you may also find me on the golf course!

What was your first car?

1994 Chevy cavalier with a spoiler :) What was your worst/best job?

I worked for MCI in high school making outbound calls, super boring job. In college I worked for Systems Unlimited assisting kids with autism. It was a lot of fun to go to work and make an impact on a kid’s life.

Best concert/show/entertainment you’ve ever been to.

Jimmy Buffett concert at the MGM Grand
