When you need to know... talk to Mickey DeBernard
Dear Community,
IT MAKES GOOD FINANCIAL SENSE
Nearly 8 in 10 Americans still believe buying a home makes good financial sense. Despite the recent Times magazine cover asking if it is still a good idea to own a home, the National Association of Realtors published their annual report October 14 which included their 2010 National Housing Pulse Survey. The report summarized that “nearly eight out of 10 respondents believe buying a home is a good financial decision” even in the current challenging economic situation. Despite economic uncertainty, 68 percent of those surveyed still believe now is a good time to buy a home. Lower home prices and record-low mortgage interest rates may be attracting buyers to the housing market—more than one-fourth of renters said they are thinking more

about buying a home than they were a year ago.
The good news is that Americans are seeing more stability in the real estate market. Nearly seven out of ten believe that home values have stabilized in their area; the same number expects home sales to remain about the same through the end of the year.
If you are interested in buying or selling your home, contact a Realtor from the Pinehurst-Southern Pines Area Association of Realtors. You can also visit our website www.move2moore for additional information.

MOORE COUNTY HOME BUILDERS ASSOCIATION
Does Your Home Pollute More Than Your Car?
In terms of pollution your home likely causes more pollution and environmental damage than the cars you drive… How can that be? We don’t tend to think of our homes as polluters but they are. Since our houses don’t have a tailpipe or a smokestack – we tend not to realize the extent they pollute the environment. The reality is the average home consumes huge amounts of fossil fuels in terms of generation of electricity, heating, lighting, treating and delivering water, and even sewage. (If you are on city sewer, all the electricity used to pump and treat your waster water by the water treatment plant at the other end of the county -- is part of the environmental footprint of your house) So a green home that uses less electric, less natural gas, and even less water – is truly green and can do real good for the environment. Not to mention that using less electric
Re
and water is also quite beneficial on the family budget… So lets talk about what common sense basic features you can incorporate into a new home that are both good for the environment and good for your pocketbook. Advanced Framing Techniques: There are many construction techniques which can make large improvements in your homes efficiency. Just one example is placing a half inch thick piece of XPS insulation foam board between the two header boards above every window (typically an area which cannot be insulated) in a new house. This alone can create energy savings equal to leaving a small window open all winter. Another technique is to use foil
backed radiant barrier roof sheeting plywood. This product has a shiny metallic underside and prevents the heat from the shingles radiating into you attic and can lower the temperatures in your attic by 30 degrees in the summer. If you have air conditioning units in your attic this can create enormous energy savings on your cooling bill. Enhanced Insulation & Air Sealing: Everyone realizes the importance of insulation but what is commonly misunderstood is the importance of air sealing the home. If you went outside on a freezing cold windy day with just a sweater and no jacket; you would be cold as the wind cut through the sweater. Now if you put a windbreaker over the
same sweater you would be warm. Homes are the same way – insulation + air sealing = energy savings. Air sealing is something that must be addressed at every stage of construction and not just at the end with a tube of caulk. Heating and Cooling Units: Units are rated by their SEER rating (Season Energy Efficiency Ratio) think of this as the MPG sticker on the window of a new car. This number rates how efficient a heat pump or furnace is. SEER 13 is good and meets code requirements. Upgrading to SEER 15 equipment typically costs just a few hundred dollars more for an entire home, offers a quick payback on investment, and in my personal view is a “nobrainer.” SEER 16/17 equipment costs a bit more and is a bit longer on the payback – but still makes sense over 5-7 years. Water Efficiency:

Using a tankless water heater or a high efficiency conventional water heater is a great decision. Using “water sense” program fixtures will also save water and reduce your monthly water bill. Common sense issues like designing the home to place the hot water heater closer to where hot water will be used in the home will save water and electricity. This just scratches the surface of possibilities for a NAHB certified green home. We
haven’t even discussed: building orientation, sealed crawl spaces, conditioned attics, solar panels, geo-thermal, etc… For more information contact the Moore County Home Builders Association at www. mchba.com to locate a NAHB Certified Green Professional (CPG) in our area. For more information on these and other home technologies available, visit the National Association of Home Builders online at www.nahb.org.

Bolstered by extremely favorable interest rates and sale prices, housing affordability remained near its highest level for the sixth consecutive quarter since the data was first compiled nearly 20 years ago. The National Association of Home Builders Housing Opportunity Index (HOI) indicated that 72.3 percent of all new and existing homes sold in the second quarter of 2010 were affordable to families earning the national median income of $64,400. Until 2009, the HOI, rarely exceeded 67 percent and never reached 70 percent. “Homeownership is within the reach of more households than it has been for
“I will provide an outstanding mortgage experience from application to closing”
almost a generation,” said NAHB Chairman Bob Jones. “Interest rates continue to hover at historic low levels, the economy is beginning to rebound, and with house prices starting to stabilize, conditions are beginning to draw homebuyers back into the market. The affordability of owning a home is undoubtedly one reason that nearly two-thirds of Americans think this is a time to buy. An even greater number — 70 percent — believe that buying a home continues to be one
of the safest investments available. In contrast, only 17 percent consider stocks a safe investment.

Prudential Gouger O’Neal & Saunders Real Estate Sales Professionals Attend the Mandatory Continuing Education Class offered by the Firm at The Country Club of North Carolina.
Prudential Gouger O’Neal & Saunders Real Estate sales professionals gathered October 30, 2010 at The Country Club of North Carolina, with Chapel Hill instructor Deborah Long, Ed.D., DREI, to review the new Offer to Purchase Contract that becomes effective January 1, 2011 with language mandated by the North Carolina Real Estate Commission.

(ARA) - Saving the environment can be an overwhelming task. With everything in the news about how to make your home more energy efficient, it's easy to become bewildered when thinking about all the improvements you could make. But there's no need to worry, as you don't have to make your home into a model for green living all at once. In fact, if everyone did just a few little things, the earth would see a gigantic benefit, so you can still do your part even if it doesn't mean retrofitting your entire home. And a few small measures, like taking the ENERGY STAR "Change the World" pledge, can result in you seeing immediate savings. Some of the world's leading brands recently teamed up with energy-savings experts to build an energy-neutral house to test earth-friendly practices in Boulder, Colo. Lifestyle experts were then invited to live in The Green House for three days, test its environmentally friendly products and experience the benefits of ecofriendly living. The main takeaway from The Green House project is that there are a variety of steps you can take, big ones and smaller ones, to make each room in your home more eco-friendly: Bathroom Big: Install a low-flow aerating showerhead. Most models allow you to save around 30 percent on water usage without compromising on your shower experience. Small: Avoid using toxic cleaning products, as chemicals find their way into the atmosphere and waterways. As you run out of old cleansers, replace with nontoxic cleaning products.
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2010
Kitchen Big: Replace your old refrigerator or dishwasher with an energy-efficient model. Look for models that either meet or go beyond ENERGY STAR levels, like a new 4-Door Frenchdoor refrigerator from LG that's 20 percent more efficient than the minimum ENERGY STAR standard. The fridge achieves efficiency through linear compressor technology that alters output based on demand from the refrigerator. This means fewer temperature swings, ultimately using less energy and saving you money. Small: Plant a garden, as the food out of your garden will be fresher and won't need to be transported to the store or to your home. Bedroom Big: Buy all-natural bedding that is made from earth-friendly materials. Small: Unplug gadgets like cell phone chargers and unused appliances before going to bed, since they can use energy even when they are plugged in and not in use. Laundry room Big: Buy an energyefficient washer and dryer. Consider a high-efficiency, frontload machine like a SteamWasher from LG. It uses more than 50 percent less water per load and is roughly 86 percent more energy-efficient than conventional topload machines. Small: Clean your dryer vent after each load, because even a partially clogged vent will hurt your dryer's efficiency. Energy center Big: Invest in a programmable thermostat, which can save you money by setting temperatures lower when you plan to be away or while you sleep. Some even can be controlled remotely

while you are away. Small: Replace incandescent light bulbs with more energy-efficient CFL or LED bulbs. Garage Big: If you're in the market for a new car, buy a gas-sipping hybrid. Small: Take public transportation. Better yet, where possible, bike or walk on one trip each week where you would usually drive. Living room Big: Buy an ENERGY STAR-rated TV that will save you money when it's both on and off. With very low standby and onmode power consumption, some new LED HDTVs from LG use only about 7 cents of electricity a day for average viewing of six hours daily. Small: Unplug your DVD player or other accessories when they are not in use, especially when leaving for an extended time like a vacation. Whether they are big or small, your energysaving contributions won't go unnoticed by Mother Nature or your pocketbook.
