Choosing the best plant for your location One of the most common questions horticulturists hear is “what is the best plant for location?” Alas, if only it were that easy. The short answer is it depends. Since that answer is frustrating to most and of little value, here are a few ways determine how to begin choosing plants for specific sites. For the novice, a good place to start is finding plants growing in similar environmental conditions to your own site. Explore the area and see what appeals to you in the landscape. Public gardens such as the Botanic Garden at OSU are great places to do this. Once you begin to narrow down what appeals to you, it’s time to think about
Home Grown KEITH REED the function of the plant. What is its purpose in the landscape? For example, if the plant’s primary role is to provide privacy, you probably want an evergreen so it will be an effective screen year around. Next consider environmental factors critical to plant growth such as the light availability (sun vs. shade), moisture requirements and plant hardiness zone rating (7). In general, landscape plants are fairly tolerant of
some variation in light conditions although most perform best under a narrower range. It should be noted that Oklahoma summers are sunny and intense so 6-7 hours of direct sunlight will usually be adequate for “full sun” plants. For landscape plantings adjacent to buildings, observance of which side a building a healthy plant is growing on can offer a good hint on its preferred growing conditions. Plants that excel on the south and west
sides of buildings are going to tend to do well in hot sunny conditions. Plants prospering on the north or east side of buildings will help indicate their ability to tolerate, or even prosper, in shade. Searching for plants that thrive
in your soil conditions is also important. For Payne County residents, shallow soils high in clay are those most limiting to healthy landscape plant growth. On the other extreme are the sandy soils adjacent to the Cimarron River near
Perkins. While we can make some accommodation to modify soil, simply selecting a plant that prefers the existing soil is a much more effective option. For more information on this or any other horticultural topic, you can con-
tact Keith Reed, the Horticulturist in the Payne County Extension office. Keith can be reached via email at keith.reed@ okstate.edu, phone at 405-747-8320, or in person at the Payne County Extension office, located at 315 W. 6th in Stillwater.

Rural development loan offers 100-percent financing By Alex Penny
Mortgage Originator, RCB
Does homebuying feel out of reach because you think you haven’t saved up a large enough down payment? Take a look at the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development Loan (RD loan or USDA loan), which may provide up to 100 percent financing for qualified households purchasing homes in eligible rural areas. Don’t let the name fool you. Rural America includes 72 percent of the Nations land mass and 46 million people, according to Assistant to the Secretary for Rural Development Anne C. Hazlett in the USDA Rural Development 2017 Performance Report. Let’s look at the advantages and eligibility of RD loans. Advantages: 100-percent

tions: Household income must meet certain guidelines. Income restrictions vary by county. Currently, in Oklahoma and Kansas, income eligibility is $82,700 or less for a one-to-four-person family and $109,150 or less for a family of five or more. Use
the USDA eligibility checker to confirm income requirements for your area as well periodic changes to income eligibility. If you’re looking to buy or refinance, talk with a lender first to explore your financing and down payment options.

Financing - Majority of other loan programs require borrowers to put at least 3 percent down. The RD loan may only require you to cover closing costs. Mortgage Insurance Reduction - On most loans, mortgage insurance (PMI) is required if you pay less than 20 percent down payment. PMI covers the loan in case of default and may require an upfront fee and/or is included in your monthly loan payment. With an RD loan you may be able to finance the upfront portion and receive a discounted rate on the monthly fee. Lower Interest Rate - The RD loan is a government-backed loan and typically has a lower interest rate than most conventional loans. Keep in mind, interest rates vary daily and de-

Paying the right commission is ultimately up to you WASHINGTON – So you think things don’t get rough in real estate and feathers don’t fly when agents’ commission money is at stake? Ha. Listen to what Joshua Hunt, founder and CEO of discount-fee realty brokerage Trelora recently said here at a meeting of the Federal Trade Commission and Justice Department. Trelora, which is based in Denver, charges home sellers a flat $2,500 to list their home and allows them to pay agents another $2,500 for bringing in buyers, no matter the price of the house. Hunt told the meeting, which was organized to examine the present state of competition in the real-estate market, that competing brokers and agents loathe his firm’s business model because it reduces the total commissions they receive. “We’ve had bricks
The Nation’s Housing Column KENNETH thrown through car windows,” he said, “we’ve had our cars egged, we’ve had hate mail sent to our sellers” -- all because Trelora clients don’t pay enough in commission dollars, split between the listing agent and the buyer’s agent. Many competitors won’t even show Trelora-listed homes, said Hunt. “I’ve got a list here of 719 brokerages in Denver” that will not show Trelora properties unless the seller agrees to pay the buyer’s agent 2.8 percent to 3 percent of the sale price as commission. On a $500,000 house that’s a big difference – $2,500 versus $14,000 or $15,000. Hunt has also
5.42 percent in 2010. The average rate hasn’t been north of 6 percent for decades. On negotiating, the reality is this: All commission rates are negotiable. It’s never “illegal” to offer a discounted fee. There is no “standard” rate, though some highly experienced, full-service agents may not be willing – or need – to accept a discounted commission. At the FTC-Justice meeting, a senior executive from national realty firm ERA described one of the company’s top-producing agents, who charges all clients 7 percent to list and sell their homes. When owners inevitably ask how she can charge that much when competing agents quote
less, she answers: “They should.” In other words, she believes they don’t bring as much oomph to the table – she sells houses faster and at higher contract prices than competitors. Besides, she’s free to charge whatever she wants. Take it or leave it. How much of the 7 percent she keeps for herself is up to her, but most likely she values the services of top local buyers’ agents enough to pay them a generous fee. Splits between listing and buyer’s agents are also fully negotiable, though as Hunt pointed out, that gets handled in a separate, typically undisclosed agreement between the agents involved. Another reality on commission rates: You’ve got an un-

About Real Estate DAVID MYERS postal worker or trespasser - was entitled to monetary damages. Not surprisingly, a judge is more likely to rule in a plaintiff’s favor if evidence shows that the dog had bitten someone before. It’s also worth noting that many cities and counties across the nation now have laws that require a canine to be euthanized if it has two or three bites on its record. Your letter states that you keep your pair of pooches inside a fenced yard. Though I’m guessing that they haven’t bitten anyone before, it might be wise to replace your current signs with a less-threatening “Dog on Premises” placard, which can be purchased for $5 or $10 at most home improvement

wrote about, but would it be legal for my husband to create one trust to benefit his kids and a second trust for me to give my property to my only daughter? ANSWER: Sure. Your husband can create a living trust that gives his half-interest in the home and other property without forcing his heirs to suffer the time-consuming and expensive probate process. But you can form a separate trust to transfer your assets, including any stake in your house and stocks or bonds too, directly to your daughter after you pass away.

the owner’s automobile-insurance policy, the institute adds, provided that the policyholder chose the “comprehensive” option to protect against losses that aren’t caused by a collision or theft. Like me, many of my readers are old enough to remember when the Mount St. Helens volcano erupted in the state of Washington 38 years ago. It took 57 lives and caused billions of dollars in damage. I don’t want to scare my friends in the Evergreen State, but the U.S. Geological Survey says that St. Helens is the most likely of the na-

A simple sign that suggests a dog may bite can land the homeowner in legal trouble. DEAR MR. MYERS: We have two small dogs that we often let run around in our fenced yard. We also have “Beware of Dog” signs posted on the fence and on our front door, but a friend says that those signs could get us into legal trouble if one of our dogs bites someone trespassing on our property or even if he or she comes as an invited guest. Is this true? ANSWER: Laws concerning dog bites vary from state to state, and even county to county and city to city. But a handful of judges in civil dog-bite cases have indeed ruled that the simple act of posting a “Beware of Dog” sign suggests that the homeowner knew that the pet was dangerous and that the plaintiff who was bitten - whether it was a friend,
