On the Flip Side

By Lisa Iannucci CTW FEATURES The fifth season of Bravo’s docu-series Flipping Out just ended and, interestingly, this season focused on frenetic house flipper Jeff Lewis converting his floundering flipping business into a successful interior design company. But why change what has made him a successful reality star? After all, he was discovered when Bravo was reviewing his assistant’s audition tape, and within 48 hours Lewis had a show of his own.

But while he’s known for his brashness and over-the-top personality while hiring and firing friends along the way, his flipping business was no match for the country’s suffering economy. It was four years ago when market turned for Lewis and he faced the worst financial year of his life.

“In 2008, everything turned and turned fast, and I was stuck holding several multi-million dollar homes. Fortunately, I was able to sell them and pay off my debts, but I did lose a lot of money,” he says. “I felt lucky, though, because some people lost everything. I wish I would have acted a little faster, but I was paralyzed for a couple of months because I just didn’t know what to do and I had to form a game plan.”

Having a national reality show once helped Lewis to promote his flipping business, so he realized that he also could use it to launch

For his newest project, Jeff Lewis, Hollywood’s favorite flipper, turns around the business model that made him famous

a new business. “There’s this notion out there that you don’t make money doing reality shows, and that’s not true,” he says. “As a businessman, I never would have done this if I wasn’t paid well. So for me, I looked at it as a nice income supplement for running my business and having them just watch.”

Even with a national platform and a new game plan, Lewis still faced an uncertain future. “People were holding onto their money, because they didn’t know what was going to happen with the economy and they were reluctant to spend,” he says. “Everybody was scared, even truly wealthy people.”

Lewis noticed that remodeling jobs were being done more out of necessity than pure want. For example, a homeowner needed to convert a garage to a home office because the home office needed to be a nursery. Another homeowner remodeled because of a fire. In 2009, Lewis says that pockets loosened up a bit and his customers felt that most of the damage was done.”

“All of a sudden I was trying to reinvent myself with a brand-new design business in a bad economy, and the show was a multimillion dollar marketing campaign for my business,” he explains. “When the season started, within two hours I had 18 legitimate business inquiries, so the design business has definitely loosened up.”

If the market improves even more, Lewis says he may start to flip (cont. on pg. 6)

Protect Your Deck Now So You Can Enjoy It Later

Colder temperatures, snow, and ice can do some damage on the exterior of your home, especially to wooden decks. Harsh winter weather can deteriorate the wood, ruin the look, and depreciate the value of your deck. Take extra care of it now so that your deck is in tip-top shape for backyard BBQs in the spring. There are three steps to winterizing your deck: First, you should give your deck a good wash. There are a number of substances that can get on your deck during the summer that could cause problems during the winter. For example, mold and mildew can cause erosion on various types of wood. Cleaning the deck can also prevent dry rot, which is wood decay caused by fungi. Start by removing furniture and planters for storage.

Moisture caught between the deck and planters or furniture can seep into the wood during the winter and stain the surface. Sweep off dirt and debris while making sure to clear the space between the planks for ventilation. A leaf blower can help you clear the surface quickly. Then wash your deck with deck soap - you can find specific formulas for each type of wood. After washing, give it a good rinse with the hose.

October 28, 2011

The next thing you want to do is restore the deck by stripping and refinishing the wood.

It is important to strip and refinish the deck before staining to ensure sealants adhere to the wood and cover evenly. Power washing the deck is recommended to remove old paint and stains. Make sure to maintain a consistent distance from the surface of the deck at all times to produce a smooth surface.

The last and most important step is protecting the deck with water repellant stain. Stains or sealants prevent water, snow, etc., from penetrating the wood and causing decay. Ask your hardware or home improvement store about the best high-quality stain for your type of deck.

Using a paint sprayer can make staining faster and provide a professional finish. A paint sprayer can also help you cover those hard to reach areas like railings, posts and underneath the deck.

Spray on a non-windy day to prevent overspray, keep a consistent distance away from the surface, and maintain a steady speed while spraying.

The deck is one of your home’s greatest assets. Prolong the life of your investment by winterizing it each year.

Home Improvement Tips Air-tight insulation delivers big returns Household energy-efficiency is now more important than ever when selling a home. Purchasers are able to rate one residence against another, so if you want top dollar for your house some day, it’s worth investing along these lines with upgrades and renovations.

If adding rooms or finishing the basement, for example, take a look at the most energy efficient materials and methods,” says Todd Blyth at Nudura, a company that has spearheaded an advanced version of the insulated concrete form (ICF), as well as do-it-yourself materials.

For both interior and exterior walls, use a shiplap system of expanded polystyrene (EPS), which allows large 4 X 8 foot sheets of this foam to be installed without any gaps for air leakage. It’s easy to cut, easy to install, and the performance value is up to R-14.

Drywall can then be attached directly to the embedded fastening strip allowing the electrical wiring to be easily run.

Occupant comfort Residential enjoyment is also top-of-mind in our choice of renovation fixtures, features and materials.

Superior insulation will reduce home heating costs and it will also prevent excessive noise, drafts, and unexpected cold spots from room to room.

In response to energy conservation, environmental responsibility and consumer demand, construction practices have advanced significantly in North America over the past few years. Today, for example, people are building their homes with insulated concrete forms, not wood, and very recently, similar eco-efficiency possible for home renovations.

houses again. “Being in the design business is a different kind of stress,” he says. “Flipping is like gambling. I probably wouldn’t do it to the extent I was doing it before - maybe just one or two at a time. There was a point where I was doing six homes at a time

and had $12 million in property out there. That was very, very scary.”

With the show’s income, endorsements, speaking engagements, appearances and more, he says he’s making more money now than he was when he was flipping homes, but without all of the risk. “It’s spread out in several different streams of income, so it’s a little bit more recession-proof that way. I had all my eggs in one basket, and now I have my eggs in different baskets, and that’s important because I can never be in that situation again.”

This year, Lewis signed an endorsement with Cornerstone, a quartz surface supplier, and with Johnson & Johnson. Bravo has also signed Lewis to a second series called “Interior Therapy.”

Now could be the time to sell a new home and earn a slice of the real estate pie.

Record-low interest rates and record-low housing prices are renewing interest in the floundering housing market for many people.

“When sellers are interviewing real estate agents to market their homes, their primary focus is usually on the advertising that the agent will offer them,” says Jessica Goodbody of Weichert Realtors.

Q&A

Are Penalties Allowed?

QUESTION:

What’s the story with prepayment penalties? Are they allowed or not?

ANSWER:

Most mortgages come through federally regulated lenders, and federal rules have long allowed prepayment penalties except for FHA and VA loans. Now the situation has changed with passage of Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Under the law, prepayment penalties are allowed for “qualified residential mortgages.” QRMs generally include FHA, VA and conventional mortgages, in addition to loans lenders hold in portfolio - in total about 80 percent of all mortgages.

Prepayment penalties are not allowed for loans that are not qualified residential mortgages.

Effectively then, prepayment penalties are allowed for conventional and portfolio loans, while such fees remain banned for FHA and VA financing.

Under Dodd-Frank, prepayment penalties are limited to three percent of the loan amount in the first year of the mortgage, two percent in year two and one percent in year three.

QUESTION:

Given the robo-signing scandal how do I know if my title has been correctly recorded?

ANSWER:

The robo-signing scandal involves improperly foreclosed homes, properties where the paperwork is questionable, unclear or simply wrong. So, if your property has not been foreclosed in the past five or six years the odds are overwhelming that your title is fine.

That said, when you bought did you get title insurance - both lender’s and owner’s coverage?

Title insurance companies are plainly worried about claims regarding foreclosed properties. If there was an improper foreclosure, if the title is clouded, then who will pay?

The title insurance company?

The lender who foreclosed? The loan servicer? The attorneys who handled the foreclosure?

The bigger problem may be in the future. Will title companies want to offer coverage for the purchase of foreclosed homes?

If not, how can such homes be sold? A possible answer is that lenders will offer loans for foreclosed properties - but only with steeper interest rates and bigger down payments. For specifics, speak with a real estate attorney in your community.

A better way to heat and cool is right under your feet

I

ncreasing energy costs have many homeowners looking for new ways to save money. According to the Department of Energy, the average homeowner pays about $1,900 a year on utilities, most of it going toward heating and cooling bills. Adding insulation and sealing ducts can help, but what can be done to make some significant, long-term savings?

A growing number of homeowners are finding savings in their own back yards by utilizing the earth’s natural energy to heat and cool their homes. It’s called geothermal energy - and it can save you some green while you’re going green.

Geothermal Energy

Geothermal systems - also known as ground source heat pump systems (GSHPS) or

8

October 28, 2011

Horizontal ground loop systems are used where there is sufficient space.

Vertical ground loop systems are used where space is limited.

High-density polyethylene plastic pipes buried in the ground are filled with circulating fluid that absorbs the ground’s heat and brings it indoors.

geothermal heat pumps (GHPs) have been around for decades but are just now coming to the attention of many homeowners.

The Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency have both endorsed ground source heat pump systems as among the most energy-efficient and environ-

mentally friendly heating, cooling and water heating systems available.

How It Works

The temperature of the earth below the surface - from a few feet to hundreds of feet down - is moderate and fairly constant. In

Real Estate Weekly goskagit.com/reweekly

many places it stays in the mid- to upper-50s all year. Instead of burning fossil fuels, a geothermal heat pump absorbs the energy stored in the earth to heat a home in the winter. In the summertime a heat pump rejects the heat from the space and transfers it back into the earth - making it extremely efficient and costeffective.

To make it work, you need three basic elements: an underground loop system, a geothermal heat pump, and an air-delivery system.

• Loop System: This is a system of high-density polyethylene plastic pipes buried in the ground. They are filled with fluid, a mixture of water and antifreeze, that circulates throughout the pipes. Open-loop systems circulate water drawn from a well.

• Geothermal Heat Pump: The geothermal heat pump extracts heat from the fluid within the loop using a vapor-compression

The EarthFriendly Choice • About a million geothermal systems have been installed in the U.S. since 1980. They save more than 14 million barrels of crude oil per year.

• Current geothermal systems are eliminating more than 3 million tons of carbon dioxide - the equivalent of taking 650,000 automobiles off the road.

• Geothermal systems have no carbon dioxide emissions or any other negative effects on the environment.

refrigeration cycle. This heat is then sent into the home. In the summer, it extracts heat from the indoor air and transfers it to the fluid, which cools as it circulates through the loop.

• Air-delivery System: Most geothermal pumps use an electrically driven fan to distribute the air through ducts in the home.

A residential system can also be equipped to heat household water, as well.

According to the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association, a geothermal system has efficiencies 50 to 70 percent higher than other heating systems, and cooling efficiencies 20 to 40 percent higher than available air conditioners. That means direct savings on home utility bills.

How It Saves You Money

According to Bosch Thermotechnology North America: • Geothermal heat pumps have the lowest life cycle cost today - 25 to 50 percent less than a conventional system.

• You can save up to 70 percent on your energy bill, depending on location and which GSHPS you use.

• Although the upfront costs are often more than a conventional system, the cost can be recouped within a short period of time - as little as five to seven years.

• Local and federal tax credits as well as rebates decrease installation costs.

• Costs may be further reduced by special financing options offered by heat pump manufacturers, local utilities and lending institutions.

How You Can Get Tax Credits

Under the recent tax credit legislation, a taxpayer who installs a geothermal heat pump in a residence could be eligible for a tax credit of 30 percent of the installed cost of the system.

The system must meet Energy Star requirements in effect at the time the system is
