viewed by countless home shoppers each day through such websites as realtor. com, zillow.com and trulia.com. A pocket listing, sometimes called an exclusive listing, wouldn’t give you that type of widespread exposure. Instead, the agent will keep the listing “in his pocket” – marketing it directly to buyers by himself or, perhaps, sharing the listing only with agents who work for the same company. Sure, it would be nice to slash $6,000 off your final marketing costs by paying the lower 4% commission that the pocket listing would entail. But you would be sorry if the limited exposure resulted in a final sales price that shorted you far more than $6,000 in profits, even accounting for the higher commission for putting the home on the MLS. Despite this important drawback, there are two common reasons why a seller might want to agree to a pocket listing anyway, according to National Association of Real-

Home sellers hoping to get the best price need to give their property maximum public exposure, and a pocket listing usually won’t provide it. DEAR DAVE: We are planning to sell our home, so we have been interviewing several real estate agents to handle the job. One agent that we like would charge a 6% sales commission and place it on the MLS for all the other agents to see, but would charge only 4% if we signed a pocket listing that would keep it off the MLS and allow him to find a buyer by himself. Reducing our commission would save us about $6,000, which sounds great to us. Is there a downside to pocket listings? ANSWER: Yes, and it’s a big one. The best way to get the highest possible sales price is to give your property the most public exposure possible, and the only way to do that is to publish the offering on the Multiple Listing Service. The MLS is read religiously by all brokers, who then share information about the most appealing homes with their buyers. Properties listed on the MLS are also

As stubborn as Heidi was about her English garden, she was just as resolute in her resistance to tearing down the wall between the dining room and kitchen to open up the space. “I didn’t want guests looking at my dirty dishes,” she said. Also, she couldn’t see how the formal dining room and new kitchen could blend. Paul McAlary at Main Line Kitchen Design allayed her fears. A deep sink hides dishes, a side counter conceals small appliances, and a breakfast bar screens a food preparation area. The dining room’s

down the cherry tree, friends said it would take away privacy. Instead, it has brought her closer to neighbors whose yards she views. “We encourage each other’s gardening efforts,” she said.

Victorian roof and backyard pergola and said it would work,” said Jenn. Their 26-panel system cost $37,000, which they financed through All Energy Solar, expecting a payback in 10 years with the savings from their electric bill. Photovoltaic panels convert solar energy into electricity, and a meter on the side of the house measures energy production. “We create more power than we are using when the sun’s out,” said Jenn. “We were surprised that fall and spring were huge energy production months,” added Tim. But what about winter snow? “It usually melts off the panels,” said Jenn. The couple is kept

aware of the amount of power used daily by monitoring a smartphone app. “We’ve changed our habits after seeing how much power a light, TV and refrigerator uses,” said Jenn. Over the last two years, the Morrows’ electric bill has been zero because they generate all the electricity they use. “We’re proud we made the investment to reduce the use of fossil fuels – even slightly,” said Tim. Homeowners go solar for lots of reasons, such as reducing energy costs, taking control of their energy use and helping to protect the environment. The Minnesota Department of Commerce estimates that there are between 3,000 and 3,500

homes statewide that have installed solar arrays to generate electricity. The number of projects has been on the rise due, in part, to utility incentives. Homeowner Larry Etkin is looking beyond today – and far into the future. Last year, Solar Farm installed his 18-panel solar system – which cost $24,000 – on the roof of his early 1900s home in Minneapolis after photovoltaic panels started getting more affordable, he said. “If my grandkids turn around and say, ‘Why didn’t you care about climate change and stop this calamity,’ I can tell them I did my part as much as I could.” Etkin’s next big purchase? An electric car.

creates less noise and keeps the air constantly moving, which helps with air quality. It also prevents the stopand-start feel of single-stage systems, and more effectively controls humidity. However, on average, this upgrade adds about 30% to

an HVAC system’s cost, and usually has to be added as part of a full heater or A/C replacement. Retrofitting an existing system to a multi-stage is generally unwieldy and expensive; in most cases, you might as well replace the whole thing.

step – try handing out a few coordinating colors of cocktail napkins to identify the different liqueurs, that way when you offer your in-law another drink you know it’s vodka soda and not gin without having to ask again. Having guests stay with you overnight? Utilize small, homey touches throughout your guest spaces. Holiday bathroom towels are a great way to show that extra thought and care when into preparing for your visitors. Candles are another item that can make a cozy impact while making your room smell amazing too. Lighting one in the guest bedroom and bath adds warmth to a space that can sometimes feel stale. You don’t want the rooms to feel like they haven’t been used since last year.

Long-term visitors are a whole other ballgame. One of my basic rules of thumb when hosting overnight guests is to make sure to have plenty of throw blankets within reach. This includes the public living spaces and the bedrooms. Not only are throws a great visual addition to your rooms but it’s no fun walking through a dark house to ask for extra covers. It might seem like an insignificant item, but it goes a long way in making your guests feel comfortable. Other creature comforts like robes, drinking

glasses and a bottle of water, and (my 3-year-old’s favorite) SNACKS help make your guests feel at home. These are just a few of the many ways you can make a get-together a delightful experience, for both you and your guests. I might even have to do a part two of

this with all the extra ideas swirling around in my head. What are some of your favorite hostess tips? I would love to know. Share them with us in the comments or on our social media channels using #nellhills. Until next time – happy decorating (and happy holiday hosting.).

getting to know their neighbors at the table. It is also a great personal touch that won’t go unnoticed. There are so many place card (and place card holder) options, it’s easy to find a style that fits perfectly with your table theme. One of the busiest areas at a soiree (at least at mine) is the bar. Catering to different tastes can be overwhelming if you aren’t ready. Make sure to display the bottles you are serving to avoid far-out requests and to subtly educate your guests on what is available. Then the most important part (and, perhaps my favorite) is have a variety of glassware for your cocktail options. No whiskey in a wine glass here.

This modern farmhouse keeps a considerately low , yet also ‘black, white and bold’ profile By Sandy Deneau Dunham The Seattle Times

had a 3-foot-wide ivy fence (”Kids called it the castle house,” Heather says, probably not as a compliment); two bedrooms; a “dark spider haven” of an entry; a “creepy” room in the basement; and, also downstairs, “the most terrifying bathroom you ever did see,” she says, with “a fake window to a crawl space and a toilet facing the door.” The couple was living in a 3,300-square-foot, five-bedroom house in Snoqualmie and had “walked through countless houses in Seattle and had stopped looking,” Mitch says. “One Sunday, we came to an open house. This was old but clean and didn’t have a smell, and was about the right

size for a couple without children.” Heather recalls: “Walking into it, as funky as some of it was, it had good energy. It was bright and light. I could see there was room to make it a space for us: a huge kitchen we could eat in and be in, a family room that wasn’t fussy, an entry with a mudroom area.” “I said it could work,” says Brown. “We kept all the existing foundation. The house feels so much bigger, but we really added only 200 square feet, and kept the same basic height.” And now, with 2,250 square feet of space (including the existing garage), three bedrooms and three baths, and not a single inch of creepy or terrifying anything, their new

home embodies the new-home goals they shared from the start. “We had wanted a one-story living area,” Mitch says. “One of the visions was to get rid of a living-room space and focus on the family room and master suite. We embraced that.” The master suite evolved into a luscious focal point, with the new bedroom replacing a second family room (under a “Mansard roof uncovered during demolition,” says Brown. “We were able to vault that space.”), and a sparkling new bathroom where the master bedroom and

closet used to live (”It had a free-standing toilet and was all pink,” says Heather). There’s a new powder room on the first floor; a yoga sanctuary for Heather; a cleverly carvedout “mudzone” just inside the new, expanded entry; a roomy, supercool kitchen; a long, lofty, all-new family room with a separate seating area and a double-sided fireplace to the all-new covered patio; and, downstairs, a fabulous and functional new laundry area and totally redone bathroom (with a much less-frightening toilet position).

almost all the interior-design work. “I was surprised at how quickly I selected finishes,” she says. “I knew what I liked: subway tile in the kitchen, and durable flooring; the bathroom hex tile I had wanted forever and ever. It all came together.” This is the first home Brown has designed in Seattle since starting her own firm in December. She calls its overall theme “black, white and bold” – and considerate. “The intent is not to overwhelm this neighborhood with multiple stories,” she says. “Treading lightly was the right thing to do.”

Stillwater NewsPress • Friday, October 4, 2019

SEATTLE – Neighbors keep stopping by Heather and Mitch’s house. They’re not toting a casserole to pass at a potluck. They’re not slinging invented complaints about extra-good dogs Kinsey and Lucy. They’re sharing gratitude. “Every single person, not just on our street block, says, ‘Thank God you didn’t build a Ballard box,’ “ says Mitch. Instead, here in Laurelhurst, the home they did build – a striking black-and-white modern farmhouse, with architect Marlo Brown – definitely distinguishes itself from its 1930s-’50s street-mates. But in a not-boxy-atall way worthy of

good-neighborly appreciation. “The overall goal for the project was a style that fit in with the existing neighborhood, a serious remodel instead of a whole teardown rebuild, therefore keeping some of the same roofline character of the original house,” says Brown. “I’ve done modern boxes and traditional; this house is more of an in-transition style. You don’t always need to go up and pack in volume and space.” The original house took its “original” status quite literally: It was the first in the neighborhood, Heather says – “a 1916 cross-gable” that served as the builder’s office, adds Brown. When they first saw it, the repeatedly reworked house

How to harness the power of purple By Cathy Hobbs Tribune News Service

Purple has long been a color associated with royalty and wealth. Whether you are looking to incorporate soft pastel tones or rich, deep

colors, purple can add an interesting twist to nearly any room in your home. WHY PURPLE? Purple has a number of strong undertones, especially warm

tones such as red, yellow and orange. As a result, many shades of purple can add an inviting element of warmth and richness to a space. Purple isn’t always easily duplicated, so it is

often considered rare and special. WHERE CAN I USE PURPLE? Think of purple as a great accent color. You can use purple in a number of different ways to add an unex-

pected or unique color mix to your space. Consider accessories such as toss pillows, throws, artwork and area rugs, as well as accent furniture such as side chairs. WHAT COL-

ORS WORK WELL WITH PURPLE? While purple can make a strong stand-alone statement, purple also works well when paired with other colors. Purple and orange is es-

pecially popular, while purple and yellow are complementary colors. Purple also pairs well with neutral foundation colors such as charcoal gray, black, cream and even chocolate brown.
