Outdoor projects that add value Exterior renovations can enhance the appearance of a property and make it more enjoyable for homeowners. Certain renovations have the potential to add value to a home, while others may do the opposite. Learning which one have the largest return on investment can help homeowners select features that will have the most positive impact. Curb appeal goes a long way toward attracting potential buyers. According to the National Association of Realtors, first impressions of a property have a strong influence on buyers. Landscaping and external features can do much to influence such impressions. . • Lawn care program: Investing in a lawn care program that consists of fertilizer and weed control application and can be transferred over to a subsequent home
owner is an attractive feature. NAR says such a care program can recover $1,000 in value of the $330 average cost, or a 303 percent ROI. • Low-maintenance lifestyle: When choosing materials for projects, those that offer low-maintenance benefits can be preferential. These include low-maintenance patio materials, composite decking, vinyl fencing, and inorganic mulched beds. • Fire pit: A fire pit can be used for much of the year. In the spring and summer, the firepit is a great place to congregate to roast marshmallows or sip wine and gaze into the fire. In the fall, the fire pit can make for a cozy retreat. A fire pit that has a gas burner is low-maintenance, and the National Association of Landscape Professionals says that most can recoup about $4,000 of their $6,000 aver-
age price tag. • Softscaping: Hardscaping refers to structures like outdoor kitchens or decks. Softscaping involves the living elements of the landscape. Hiring a landscape designer to install trees, shrubs, natural edging, and rock elements can do wonders toward improving the look
and value of a home. • Pool or water feature: In certain markets, particularly hot climates, a pool or another water feature is a musthave. However, in other areas where outdoor time is limited, a pool or water feature can actually lower the value of a home. Speaking
with a real estate professional can give homeowners an idea of how a

• Almost all ornamental landscape plants, and quite a few vegetables, benefit from a good layer of mulch to help retain moisture and keep soil temperatures down. Transition from cold to hot this year happened pretty fast; mulching as soon as possible should help them weather the summer better. • Based on client feedback, tick populations are higher than average around the area this year. Insecticides labeled for insect and tick control are effective on fleas and ticks when applied correctly, but keep in mind, these products tend to be “broad spectrum” and are equally effective at killing beneficial insects, as well. Sometimes, the best line of defense can be simply protecting ourselves by applying a product containing DEET around on our shoes and ankles. • Some bermudagrass lawns are still looking below average. Now that we have ample moisture and the temperatures begin a steady increase, it should respond very well to nitrogen fertilizer applications.
Just remember that it will continue to need adequate moisture/irrigation to get the full benefit from this fertilizer. In other words, if are not prepared to irrigate if it gets dry, it’s best to not fertilize with nitrogen. Note: it IS important to make sure phosphorus and potassium levels are adequate even in unirrigated lawns as this insures they can maintain good root health. • Strawberry harvest will soon be over. Help ensure success with next year’s crop by renovating the patch according to the guidelines in OSU Fact Sheet #HLA6214 Growing Strawberries in the Home Garden. • Spring blooming shrubs like forsythia, azalea, flowering quince, etc. can all be pruned for size now since the flowers they produced were from last year’s growth. If you prune these in the late summer or fall, you’ll be removing next spring’s flowers. • Summer blooming shrubs like crapemyrtles are preparing to bloom now if they have not already done so.

Existing-home sales wane in April

Stillwater NewsPress • Thursday, May 28, 2020
Natl. Assoc. of Realtors
WASHINGTON – Existing-home sales dropped in April, continuing what is now a two-month skid in sales brought on by the coronavirus pandemic, according to the National Association of Realtors. Each of the four major regions experienced a decline in monthover-month and yearover-year sales, with the West seeing the greatest dip in both categories. Total existing-home sales, https://www. nar.realtor/existing-home-sales, completed transactions that include single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops, dropped 17.8% from March to a seasonally-adjusted annual rate of 4.33 million in April. Overall, sales decreased year-overyear, down 17.2% from a year ago (5.23 million in April 2019). “The economic lockdowns – occurring from mid-March through April in most states – have temporarily disrupted home sales,” said Lawrence Yun, NAR’s chief economist. “But the listings that are on the market are still attracting buyers and boosting home prices.” April’s existing-home sales are the lowest level of sales since July 2010 (3.45 million) and the largest month-overmonth drop since
July 2010 (-22.5%). The median existing-home price for all housing types in April was $286,800, up 7.4% from April 2019 ($267,000), as prices increased in every region. April’s national price increase marks 98 straight months of year-over-year gains. “Record-low mortgage rates are likely to remain in place for the rest of the year, and will be the key factor driving housing demand as state economies steadily reopen,” Yun said. “Still, more listings and increased home construction will be needed to tame price growth.” Total housing inventory[iv] at the end of April totaled 1.47 million units, down 1.3% from March, and down 19.7% from one year ago (1.83 million). Unsold inventory sits at a 4.1month supply at the current sales pace, up from 3.4-months in March and down from the 4.2-month figure recorded in April 2019. Properties typically remained on the market for 27 days in April, seasonally down from 29 days in March, but up from 24 days in April 2019. Fifty-six percent of homes sold in April 2020 were on the market for less than a month. First-time buyers were responsible for 36% of sales in April, up from 34%
in March 2020 and 32% in April 2019. NAR’s 2019 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers – released in late 2019 – revealed that the annual share of first-time buyers was 33%. Individual investors or second-home buyers, who account for many cash sales, purchased 10% of homes in April, down from 13% in March 2020 and from 16% in April 2019. Allcash sales accounted for 15% of transactions in April, down from 19% in March 2020 and 20% in April 2019. Distressed sales – foreclosures and short sales – represented 3% of sales in April, about even with both March 2020 and April 2019. “While virtually every sector of the American economy has been hit hard by this pandemic, our nation’s 1.4 million Realtors have continued to show an un-
dying commitment to their profession, their clients and America’s real estate industry,” said NAR President Vince Malta, broker at Malta & Co., Inc., in San Francisco, Calif. “As we find during any time of crisis, we have a tremendous opportunity to evolve and emerge stronger and more efficient,” Malta continued. “Having renewed our focus on new, innovative ways to serve American consumers, I am confident the real estate sector and our nation’s Realtors are uniquely positioned to lead America’s economic recovery.” Realtor.com’s Market Hotness Index, measuring time-on-the-market data and listing views per property, revealed that the hottest metro areas in April were Colorado Springs, Colo.; Fort Wayne, Ind.; Topeka, Kan.; Pueblo, Colo.;
and Columbus, Ohio. According to Freddie Mac, the average commitment rate for a 30-year, conventional, fixed-rate mortgage decreased to 3.31% in April, down from 3.45% in March. The average commitment rate across all of 2019 was 3.94%.
Single-family and condo/co-op sales Single-family home sales sat at a seasonally-adjusted annual rate of 3.94 million in April, down 16.9% from 4.74 million in March, and down 15.5% from one year ago. The median existing single-family home price was $288,700 in April, up 7.3% from April 2019. Existing condominium and co-op sales were recorded at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 390,000 units in April, down 26.4% from March and down 31.6% from a

year ago. The median existing condo price was $267,200 in April, an increase of 7.1% from a year ago. “There appears to be a shift in preference for single-family homes over condominium dwellings,” Yun said. “This trend could be long-lasting as remote work and larger housing needs will become widely prevalent even after we emerge from this pandemic.”
Regional breakdown As was the case for the month prior, April sales decreased in every region from the previous month’s levels. Median home prices in each region grew from one year ago, with the Northeast and Midwest regions showing the strongest price gains. April 2020 existing-home sales in the Northeast fell 16.9%, recording an annual
rate of 540,000, an 18.2% decrease from a year ago. The median price in the Northeast was $312,500, up 8.7% from April 2019. Existing-home sales decreased 12.0% in the Midwest to an annual rate of 1.10 million, down 8.3% from a year ago. The median price in the Midwest was $229,200, a 9.3% increase from April 2019. Existing-home sales in the South dropped 17.9% to an annual rate of 1.88 million in April, down 16.8% from the same time one year ago. The median price in the South was $249,400, a 6.4% increase from a year ago. Existing-home sales in the West fell 25.0% to an annual rate of 810,000 in April, a 27.0% decline from a year ago. The median price in the West was $419,300, up 6.1% from April 2019.

so much unknown can cause stress and make us feel lonely and anxious, even with others around, said Dr. Vivek Murthy, U.S. surgeon general from 2014 to 2017. “In this moment, we have no idea when the pandemic will end,” he said. “We don’t know when our lives will go back to normal.” Well before the stay-at-home orders, Murthy recognized Americans’ increased loneliness, prompting his new book, “Together: The Healing Power of Human Connection in a Sometimes Lonely World.” Now that
many are isolated by themselves, he urges us to “step back and take stock of our lives.” “The silver lining of COVID-19 is that it’s given us the opportunity to reset our social lives and remember how essential relationships are to our well-being,” he said. Rose is doing her own reset. She’s among California’s estimated 2 million self-employed. But because of the pandemic, she’s applying for full-time jobs around the country in digital media and project management. “When I left L.A., I never expected that
I would not go back to that apartment,” she said. With her lease up in June, she asked a friend to pack up her place and move everything into storage. Rose and her
mother returned late Sunday from a quick turnaround to California to retrieve Rose’s tiny 2016 Fiat 500 that was stranded six weeks in long-term airport parking.

and now “nobody is rushing off to do anything.” “We’re having meals together. And we’re watching movies at night,” she said. Christian and her husband, Bruce Todd, a former Austin mayor, wanted to make sure Rose got back before California wouldn’t allow her to leave or Texas wouldn’t let her in. Sarah and Ken Frankenfeld had barely moved into their downsized townhome when the coronavirus pandemic brought their 31-year-old son and his girlfriend from New York City to quarantine with them. “I was nervous about how this was going to work,” Sarah Frankenfeld said of their lack of furniture and readiness for houseguests. They’d met his girlfriend for one evening a few months earlier. “He hasn’t lived here in a while. But it’s worked and it’s been lovely.” Kevin Frankenfeld, who works in digital, social strategy and marketing, has lived in New York almost nine years. He and his girlfriend, Maddie Haller, wanted to quarantine together. “In Manhattan or Brooklyn, people are just on top of one another,” he said. “So we wanted to get out of town.” This shared feeling of lockdown with

being developed, the National Western Center, is a multi-use campus currently under construction in Denver to house the annual National Western Stock Show and other public events focused on food and agriculture. A 6-foot-diameter pipe carrying the city’s wastewater runs underground through the property before delivering the water to a treatment plant. The water temperature stays within a narrow range of 61 to 77 degrees F throughout the year. The wastewater pipe and a heat exchanger transfer heat to and from an ambient loop circulating water throughout the district. The system provides heat in winter and absorbs heat in the summer via heat recovery chillers, which are heat pumps that can simultaneously provide heating and cooling. This strategy serves individual buildings at very high
efficiency. Electricity used to operate the heat pumps, lighting and other equipment will come from on-site photovoltaics and wind- and solar-generated electricity imported from off-site. Integrated low-energy houses Another district that will minimize carbon emissions is the Whisper Valley Community, under construction in Austin, Texas. This 2,000-acre multi-use development includes 7,500 all-electric houses, 2 million square feet of commercial space, two schools, and a 600acre park. Its design has already received a green building award. Whisper Valley will run on an integrated energy system that includes an extensive ambient loop network heated and cooled by heat pumps and geothermal wells located at each house. Each homeowner has the option to include
a 5-kilowatt rooftop solar photovoltaic array to operate the heat pump and energy-efficient appliances, including heat pump water heaters and inductive stovetops. According to the developer, Whisper Valley’s economy of scale allows for a median sale price $50,000 below that of typical Austin houses. The future of zero-energy The National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and other project partners are developing an open source software development kit called URBANopt that models elements of zero energy districts, such as building efficiency/demand flexibility strategies, rooftop photovoltaic arrays, ambient loop district thermal systems. The software can be integrated into other computer

The projects I’ve described are new construction. It’s harder to achieve net zero energy in existing buildings or communities economically, but there are ways to do it. Utilities are increasingly offering time-ofuse rate schedules, which charge more for power use during high demand periods. Emerging home energy management systems will allow home owners to heat water, charge home batteries and electric vehicles and run other appliances at times when electricity prices are lowest.
