the lender, and if you have been making your payments, then it’s simply a home sale, and that’s the end of it. However, if the property is worth less than the existing mortgage balance you may need a short sale, a transaction that requires lender approval because you’re asking the lender to accept a loss. If the lender is facing a loss it may want to sue for a deficiency judgment to get back its money, but can it sue? Speak with an attorney or legal clinic to determine if a deficiency claim is allowed in your situation. Because a short sale can drag on for months, you might want to consider an auction as an alternative. In any case, before going further speak with an attorney or legal clinic as well as a tax professional to understand your rights and options.

Fall: Home Maintenance Checklist Preparing for fall and winter in the Northwest means gearing up for wet weather. 1. Check your drainage. Soil should not be touching siding and should slope away from the house, dropping at least 6 vertical inches over the first 10 feet. 2. Clean gutters. It’s imperative that your gutters are ready for the heavy workout they’ll receive from winter rains. 3. Have your furnace checked and tuned up. Schedule a fall appointment promptly to get your furnace ready for winter. 4. Combat moss on the roof. Fall is the time to apply moss-killing granules or liquid solution to your rooftop. 5. Check weather-stripping and caulk on doors and windows. 6. Disconnect hoses and winterize your lawn irrigation system. 7. Visit your crawl space. This is where moisture and drainage problems can cause the most damage. 8. Prune trees. Contact with trees is bad for roofs and siding; friction and trapped moisture shorten the lifespan of building materials. www.houselogic.com/home-advice/maintenance-repair/fall-winter-seasonal-maintenance-guide-northwest/ Mission Statement: The North Puget Sound Association of Realtors advocates for Realtors and their clients, provides services to help members prosper, and promotes the protection of property rights.

Finding Your
Niche A
long with three bedrooms and three baths, another top priority in Dawn and Scott Berry’s home search was, “a community feel where neighbors trust each other and help each other out if and when needed,” relates Dawn, of Vista, California. Such elusive, subjective information isn’t usually noted in home listings. The sales staff in the new housing development the Berry’s were interested in also didn’t offer any answers. Indeed, even if they hold opinions, real estate professionals are guarded about sharing them, since federal fair housing rules prohibit any steering of customers to or away from any area. But a serendipitous encounter with the construction supervisor of the development filled in the blanks for the Berry’s, giving them the comfort to buy. “He told us the who, what, when and where’s of the neighborhood … who gets along, who hangs out, who doesn’t pick up after their dog, who moved from where,” she relates. “Nothing replaces walking the streets” of a prospective neighborhood, and chatting up anyone who appears willing to dish, says Paul Purcell, managing director of a real estate brokerage in New York. While he recommends that buyers walk a neighborhood – not just once, but on a weekday, weekend, and day and night, because neighborhood character can change within hours – Purcell acknowledges that foot exploration provides limited information, especially when no one is around to supply news.

How to Look into a Potential Neighborhood to Make Sure It’s the Right Fit for You Listen to Virtual Neighbors Plenty of residents blog about neighborhood and block-by-block news. All one has to do is “google a neighborhood name and blogs and listings will come up,” Purcell says. Sometimes, online sleuthing impacts the buying decision, says Lee Williams, a broker in New York. For instance, online there are 500 different neighborhood discussions, and reports of building residents complaining about pets or issues with building management can convince clients to look elsewhere. Moreover, once someone lives in an apartment complex or neighborhood, there’s often an internal email group. But those conversations are limited to current residents so that gripes and complaints won’t damage values, says Purcell.
indicating what predominant lifestyle is in the place, Schiller explains. Schiller’s service offers free descriptions of areas when users input an address or town name. Under “Boise, Idaho,” for instance, the part of the description reads: “One thing noticeable about Boise, although not a huge city, is that it has a large population of people who are young, single, educated, and upwardly mobile career starters.”
Happiness In Numbers “There is no ‘bad’ place,” says Schiller, “but there are locations that are going to make some people happy and others not.” It’s healthier to live in a happiness-inducing place, according to at least one study published in 2013 in the journal Social Peering In Shadows Science & Medicine. Researchers asked 6,740 people age Simply because populations are more dense, in urban areas 50 and over how friendly they felt their neighborhood was, and neighborhood blogs are more plentiful. For every ZIP code in the whether they felt they belonged there. country, though, there’s a treasure trove of data, says Andrew Those with positive neighborhood perceptions had a 48 Schiller, founder of a neighborhood website. Each of the dozens data points he’s collected for distinct areas percent reduced risk of stroke compared to those without don’t directly indicate the character of a place, but taken together favorable attachments. “we can learn a lot about the shadow of that data,” Schiller says. Areas with a similar character, such as “family-friendly” or “urban sophisticates” have similar data points, like the percent of the population in certain professions or the number of singleperson households, and taken together the data cast a “shadow” September 5, 2014
