Bricks will deteriorate until moisture is stopped By Alan J. Heavens The Philadelphia Inquirer
Question: Some bricks on the front of my home are deteriorating; I have no idea if it is an animal causing it or what. Have you ever seen this or heard of this occurring before? Any remedy or repair you could recommend?
Answer: Brick is porous, and the older it gets, the more likely it is to deteriorate because of stresses created by weather. Your wall is in contact with soil. When it rains, or when snow melts, water in the soil saturates the brick with which it is in contact. The freeze-thaw cycle
accelerates deterioration, called spalling. Water penetrates the brick, and the surface flakes and pops off, creating that chewed-off look. Some say you can repair a spalled brick, but I believe the solution is to replace it. You’ll also need to address the cause: moist soil coming in contact with the brick.
Perhaps removing the soil and replacing it with a couple layers of roofing topped with paper crushed stone, so that any moisture flows away from the foundation, will do the trick. Q: I have a 13-year-old gas/forced hot air system with an Aprilaire humidifier. I have not turned the humidifier on for several

Using IRAs to Buy Real Estate Have you thought this may be the best opportunity to buy a property in a certain area? It just may well be. Traditional IRAs can help you buy the property you want at the “right� price and/ or at a better location. Because some real estate investors have over-extended themselves, there are buying opportunities for savvy real estate investors. When you use a long-term investment perspective, now may be the time to purchase the type of property you have always wanted. Using IRAs to purchase real estate has been done for over 39 years just like IRAs are used to purchase stocks, mutual funds, gold/silver, CDs, and other approved investments. The difference is some custodians encourage stocks, mutual funds, precious metals and CDs while other custodians prefer real estate. If you are a real estate investor then you should research the custodial market and choose a real-estate friendly custodian.

There are two ways an IRA can be used to purchase real estate:
Method #2, the property is titled individually and is owned outright. When the individual holds title, different guidelines and rules apply as to how the property can be used. This approach is used when the IRA holder wants to invest for personal use and investment. The pros and cons of each method should be carefully studied and understood before you make any changes to your IRA. Both methods are different and each investor must decide which approach suits their investment style and objectives. Setting up a real estate IRA is not something you can do on your own. While the IRS allows this type of asset conversion, a professional advisor will help do the following: • Decide if a Real Estate IRA is right for you • Choose the proper real estate ownership method • Find the proper custodian Because this is an important financial decision, knowledge is the key to long-term success when you use your IRA to buy real estate.

years because of my concerns with the ductwork. Upon my many filter cleanings over the years, I noticed that the interior of the ductwork is lined with some sort of fiberboard insulation. Although I have no proof, I’m convinced this insulation could be a place for mold to grow with a constant source of moisture provided by the humidifier. Do you have any thoughts or experience with this? A: My response is based on the flexible duct in my basement that stretches from the furnace through the crawl space under my kitchen
COCOA BEACH — Two central Florida attorneys say they will sue the Florida Department of Health under the Endangered Species Act to try and stop permitting for septic tanks along the ailing Indian River Lagoon. The attorneys say stopping the permits will limit the pollution entering waterways that feed the lagoon. On Thursday, they filed a 60-day notice of intent to file a lawsuit on behalf of a Cocoa Beach tourism business and three endangered species that live in the lagoon system — the Florida manatee, the green sea turtle and the Atlantic salt marsh snake. department Health Sheri spokeswoman Hutchinson tells The Daytona Beach News-Journal
that the agency “has been an active partner in discussions regarding the Indian River Lagoon and has taken all necessary steps to protect the public health.�

Spring cleaning is one of the steps in getting ready to sell your house Dump debris for good first impression By Bobby Nahoom Special to HomeFinder.com Weekly
Getting your house in shape is your top priority when getting ready to sell. GRAPHIC BY PHILL FLANDERS/MIAMI HERALD
The spring season is nearly upon us, and as the cold, dreary days of winter make way for the warmer days ahead, many residents will make the decision to put their homes up for sale. With the increase in home values that we saw last year, it’s predicted that we’ll have more people trying to sell homes this year than we have had in the last few years. That means sellers in 2014 will have more homes to compete against for buyers. Getting your home in tip-top condition before you put it on the market is a crucial step this year to stand out from the competition and get your home sold quickly and at the best price possible. Here are a few suggestions that can help get you there. First impressions are big, so let’s start with improving the curb appeal of your home. Keep the grass mowed and bushes
and trees properly trimmed. Clear out yard debris, including overgrown plants and vegetation. This would also include cleaning off the roof, patios and decks. Spruce the yard up with some new landscaping. Keep the landscaping design simple in case prospective buyers have their own future landscaping ideas. Pressure wash the siding of your home, the driveway, pool area, walkways or any other outdoor living space that needs to be cleaned. If the paint on your home is faded or flaking off, spruce the home up with a fresh exterior paint

Solid contractor bids start Distressed property may with full project details be short sale candidate
M
iscommunication is one of the biggest reasons for all of the dreadful stories we hear about the construction process. Having a suitable bid package that includes plans and comprehensive specifications will help pre- Mark Worley vent those Building Basics miscommunications — these documents get everyone on the same sheet of music by listing what is required and expected of them. Residential contractors are more often than not contacted by owners with incomplete bid packages, which results in owners wondering why some firms refused to bid on their project or why there are inconsistent prices from responding contractors. Today, we will list the visual aids (plans) required by a builder in order calculate an articulate quote. The plan portion of the bid packages should include the following; » Owner and property information — You should include legal names of ownership, legal description of the property, contact information and the preferred contact person designated to answer questions. The property information should also include any development restrictions and whether the parcel is located within a flood zone, alone with soil borings to determine if there is a need for an engineered foundation. Last include the water source (well or city), sewage disposal (sewer or septic) and if the electrical connections will be overhead
or underground. » The layout — Your site plan should include the topography of the lot with any protected trees. Showing the topography of a lot is very important in that it can greatly affect the foundation cost, stormwater control, utility connections and final landscaping. Also be aware that landscape plans are required by some subdivisions and may be needed. » Foundation plan — This information defines concrete dimensions, walls, footings, pads, posts, beams, bearing walls, and any stepped foundation information, along with any retaining wall info. A typical wall section for the home is also usually included on this page (if not, it is elsewhere in your plan set, as space allows). If your plan features a poured concrete slab rather than a crawlspace, the foundation page will show footers and details for the slab, and include plumbing locations. » Exterior elevations — These drawings show what the house will look like. In addition to the front exterior, your drawings should include the rear and sides as well. These drawings provide notes on exterior materials and finishes. Specific attention is given to cornice details, brick and stone accents, or other finish items that make your home distinctive. » Floor plans — This information shows exterior and interior wall framing, and gives sizes of windows and doors. Room sizes are indicated and any beams, posts and structural bearing points are noted. The floor plans include an electrical legend, showing light and outlet placement. Floor plans should also indicate cross-

section details (provided on the sections page) and show any special framing details applicable to the design. Cabinet elevations for the kitchen, bathrooms and any related built-ins should be included. » Building sections — The building sections show changes in floor, ceiling, or roof height, and the relationship of one level to another. Detailed drawn sections are provided to show the most useful information where there are elements that need clarification. These are very useful for trade contractors. » Roof plan — Roof framing or truss directions are shown, with slope directions. Any structural members are sized and called out if applicable. Also helpful is the location of gutters and downspouts, and any roof venting required for your home. » General notes and details — These sheets include structural and insulation specifications and standard details. If you have anything special that is “out of the box,” this is a good location to document it along with a reference to the specification documents. The preparation of a detailed bid package with a good set of plans will save you much time later and greatly improve you building experience. In my next article we will explore the specifications, which are the written documentation of what you are purchasing.

Question: Due to a hardship, we stopped making our mortgage payments. Because values have increased recently, we think the house is worth more than we owe. How do we know if we need to do a short sale? And can we use a family member as our real estate agent? – Gail Answer: In a short sale, you need to get your bank’s permission to sell the house for less than what you owe on the mortgage. You will need to send in financial inforand jump mation through other hoops to get your lender to agree to this discount.

job. Replace the front door with a better one if your home needs it. Replacing a front door has one of the best payoffs in terms of recouping your money, according to Remagazine’s modeling most recent Cost vs. Value Report. Inside your house, be sure to de-clutter and clean rooms before listing your place. A home that is dirty and cluttered is a sure turn-off for buyers. Go through your home and take inventory of the things you need and don’t need, and then get rid of the items you don’t need or put them in storage. Remove excess family photos from walls. Clean out storage areas and closets. Get rid of some of your furniture if it hides the spaciousness of the rooms. The idea of de-cluttering is that you
Your first step should be to ask your lender for a complete payoff statement so you know exactly what you owe. Then you need to get with a real estate agent to see what the home is realistically worth. A fresh coat of paint, proper decorating and good staging can add significant value, maybe making the difference here. Mixing family and business typically isn’t a good idea, but there’s nothing stopping you from doing it if you don’t need your lender’s permission to sell. Because you are not sure if this will be a short sale, you should play it safe and find an experienced agent, unrelated to
you, who can help you stage and market your home for the maximum price. If this does turn out to be a short sale, you, the buyer, the real estate agents and the title company will all have to sign an affidavit stating that this is not an insider deal and that no one is related to you. Lying about this is considered mortgage fraud.
want the home to look neat and orderly so furnishings do not detract from or hide your home’s features and qualities. Once you have removed excess stuff, give your home a good cleaning. It might be a good idea to hire a professional cleaning service to clean your home before listing it, and have the company come back to clean it periodically while it’s on the market. Also, have your carpets or air ducts cleaned out if they are dirty. Have an inspection done on your home before you put it on the market, and address any problems that could prevent a buyer from getting a mortgage to purchase your home. If a buyer can’t get insurance on a home due to the home’s poor condition, then it means they can’t get a mortgage because having insurance is a requirement for obtaining a mortgage. This is especially true
for homes that are 25 years or older. In order to insure a property this age, most insurance companies will require a clean four-point inspection report that reveals no issues. The four-point inspection checks the heating/cooling, roof, plumbing, and electrical systems, so it would be especially worthwhile to fix anything wrong with these components of your house. Letting buyers know that you have already inspected your property and made needed repairs will help attract more buyers because they know they are less likely to run into issues between contract and closing. Since buyers prefer a smooth home-buying experience, this will be a selling point and will most likely result in you selling your home quicker and for more money.

An owner’s suite to remember Design leaves room to customize
Courtesy of www.ePlans.com
Here’s a one-story home with outstanding flexibility and lots of luxurious details. You’ll especially love the owner’s suite, which has the feeling of a private resort with a walk-in shower, window-side tub, and a huge closet with a window (so you can see what your outfit will look like in natural light). Two more bedrooms also offer walk-in closets on the left side of the home. Need more sleeping space? The flex room can become a fourth bedroom, or finish the superspacious bonus room upstairs. Other thoughtful touches include the lock-
ers on the way in from the garage, the kitchen’s big pantry and a snack bar on the central island. To build this home, you can order a complete set of construction documents by calling toll-free (866) 772-1013 or visiting www.ePlans.com/HouseOfTheWeek.
