Dear Community,

Hiring a local Realtor

is the Best Advantage when Buying or Selling Property

It isn't just business; real estate is personal. A Home is the largest chunk of the American Dream and represents more than bricks, mortar and a roof. Family memories and history plus a large asset are all tied up in a complicated package when buying and selling real estate. Hiring a local Realtor® is an important component to a successful real estate transaction. Consider the unique factors and myriad of reasons drawing people to Moore County. Understanding the nuances of neighborhoods, golf clubs, schools and services, a local Realtor® knows area dynamics and has local experience.

Additionally, most Realtors maintain a database of buyers and sellers. Accessing their contacts, properties receive the advantage of a Realtor's sphere of influence as well as other marketing. Just as important, once a contract is in place, managing the numerous details and "bumps" to closing,

a Realtor® helps their clients navigate the increasingly more complicated forms; restraints placed on appraisers, plus advice on the loan and inspection processes.

In the challenging local real estate market, featuring demanding Buyers and a surplus of home choices, it's important to be represented by a capable, experienced local Realtor® who understands the market and is a skilled negotiator. Pinehurst So Pines Area Association of Realtors has well qualified and highly trained Realtor members.

Understanding the wide range of skills Realtors possess, interviewing agents to learn about individual experience, expertise and results, and hiring a local realtor is the best advantage to buying and selling real estate in Moore County.

Sincerely,Lari Dirkmaat,

President

MOORE COUNTY HOME BUILDERS ASSOCIATION

By By Les Murray Moore County Home Builders Association President

Baby Boomers Dominate New Housing Trends

The largest American generation is either retired or quickly nearing retirement age. Baby boomers, the generation born between 1946 and 1964 and who count more than 76 million, may be getting older, but they are definitely not ready to head to the retirement home!

The boomer generation is more active than generations past, has a more sophisticated style and wants options and choices in their homes. Whether they are selling the homes where they raised their children and heading to sun-

nier pastures, or staying put and redesigning to accommodate their retired lifestyle, boomers are making an impact on new housing trends. Some features that home builders and remodelers are seeing as they begin to cater to the boomers include: Home Offices – Some boomers are choosing to work past the age of 65.

As they transition from a traditional 9to-5 job, however, they want home offices for flexibility. A second career or part-time employment often eliminates the hassle of

commuting while keeping them active and bringing in supplementary income.

Tech/Media Centers – The tech-savvy boomer generation wants top-of-the-line amenities for their homes such as a media room with surround sound and central control systems, which manage all media sources in one location. The house may include a wireless home network (Wi-Fi), remote control lighting and security features.

Wider Doors and Hallways – As a person ages, there is a likelihood that use of a wheelchair might become a necessity.

Designing a home that is livable now but can transition and be functional as the occupant ages is important in ensuring that the home will be a good long-term investment. Wider doors and hallways are useful for moving larger furniture today, and will also

be wheelchair accessible tomorrow.

Better Lighting/Bigger Windows – The need for more lighting usually increases as we grow older. To accommodate this, builders are adding more windows and making them larger to let in more natural light.

They are also adding more light fixtures in areas including under cabinets and in stairwells. Multiple switches to reduce the number of trips and dimmer controls to eliminate glare are other options.

First-Floor Bedrooms and Bathrooms – More than 40 percent of new homes have master suites downstairs, a 15 percent increase over a decade ago.

Boomers not wishing to go up and down stairs with bad knees and aching backs

have helped fuel this trend.

The bedrooms are also bigger, with larger walkin closets and bathrooms that have a separate tub and shower and dual sinks.

Easy to Maintain Exteriors/Landscaping – Yard work, painting, and other landscaping chores may no longer be enjoyable to aging home owners. People who move to a new home when they retire may opt for a maintenancefree community.

Those that choose to stay in their homes might make improvements to exterior surfaces such as installing stucco, brick or low-maintenance siding. Lawns are being replaced with living patios, decorative landscaping, or flower beds

which can be a hobby for gardening enthusiasts.

Flex Space – “Flex space” has become more prevalent in both new homes and remodeling. Flex spaces are rooms that take on the purpose of the present home owner's needs but can adjust with changes as they occur. What may have once started out as a guest bedroom can be redecorated to serve as a hobby room or library. This allows home owners to stay in their homes longer as it continues to serve their needs throughout life’s stages.
