Tips to Ease the Stress of Relocating to a New Area

VALLEY AUCTIONS

(StatePoint) Approximately 35 million Americans move every year. But unlike most times when homeowners largely change addresses within the same city or county, 2020 saw a sharp increase in relocations between 50 to 500 miles away.

“The pandemic has opened the eyes to many that they can effectively work remotely.

Thus, homeowners are leaving pricy or cold-weather areas for warmer and more

affordable regions, such as our community in Georgia where the cost of living and weather is more appealing,” says Raoul Rushin, real estate business developer and president of The Landings Company, a master-planned community located 10 miles outside downtown Savannah, Ga.

However, as exciting as it is to relocate to a dream area, heading to a new city is one of life’s most stressful events. Use these tips to ease your concerns.

Ready, Set… Research The best way to overcome the stress of the unknown is with research. Learn more about areas you’re considering online. Find local publications with ratings of communities and suburbs. Gather data on average temperatures, extreme weather tendencies and proximity from key features, such as water, work or transportation. These factors will help you narrow in on a few top areas.

Next, social media can help you gain insights on the people. Join neighborhood or city Facebook groups. Post questions. This is also a great forum to gain recommendations Continued page 12

Independence Day (colloquially the Fourth of July or July 4) is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the Declaration of Independence of the United States, on July 4, 1776.

The Continental Congress declared that the thirteen American colonies were no longer subject (and subordinate) to the monarch of Britain, King George III, and were now united, free, and independent states.

Did you know it was actually on July 2, 1776, that the Declaration of Independence began? It started with a letter to Britain’s King George to explain why the Continental Congress voted to declare America’s independence.

It was on July 4, that the final wording of the declaration was agreed.

Thomas Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence.Thomas Jefferson as he appears on a two dollar bill Jefferson later served as the third President of America from 1801 to 1809.

Coincidentally, Jefferson died on July 4, 1826.

Strangely, two other US presidents, John Adams and James Monroe, have also died on July 4.

Meanwhile, the 30th president of America, Calvin Coolidge, was born on July 4, 1872.

The first Independence Day was celebrated on July 8, 1776, in Philadelphia and the official signing took place on August 2.

Every 4th of July the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia is tapped – although not actually rung – 13 times in honour of the original 13 American colonies.

The stars on the original American flag were in a circle so all the Colonies would appear equal. The original american flag, with 13 stars in a circle The White House celebrated Independence Day for the first time in 1801.

America’s oldest continuous Independence Day celebration is the 4th of July Parade in Bristol on Rhode Island. This year it will celebrate its 232nd year.

The first Independence Day was celebrated by around 2.5 million people compared to more than 316 million people today.

Almost 100 years after the Declaration of Independence, in 1870, July 4 was made an official holiday by Congress.

Fireworks are a major part of the celebrations because the first Independence Day celebration on July 4, 1777, saw Americans gathering to watch as the sky illuminated to celebrate the new nation. Fireworks light the sky behind the statue of liberty

Testimonials: (Looking for some new comments of success)

Fall 1991 and January 1992 Testimonials: My cousin and his new wife (both in their early 40’s) were visiting my mom, my sister, and I. My sister asks, “So, how did you meet?”

They kind of giggled and asked each other, “Should we tell them?” They said they met through the LYBL column. My sister and I decided we would try our fare at meeting “Mr. Right”. (BTW, my cousin and his wife are still married and hopelessly in love.) My sister didn’t have much luck, but in January 1992, I saw this ad that kept drawing my attention.

As described, he really wasn’t what I was looking for, but...

We met later that month for the first time; got engaged in 1993 and married in 1994. We will celebrate our 25th anniversary this October and we have a 23-year-old daughter who lives out of state. Thank you, LYBL! Mr. & Mrs. J.N. 4/4/17 Testimonial: I placed an ad 1/2/94 and met the love of my life. He has 3 boys and I have 3 girls. We were married 8/26/95 and now we’re the Brady Bunch.

Thanks for helping us find each other. KP/DP I will always be grateful to your paper Valley Trader. My husband DH wrote to me and we have been happily married almost 12 wonderful years.

We’ve been through many trials and joys and so glad we found each other. K.W/K.H.

Finally, visit in-person to ensure you’re choosing the location right for you.

“Once you’ve narrowed your search, it’s important to experience the community,” says Rushin. “At The Landings, we offer Discovery Visits to allow potential homeowners to fully immerse themselves during a three- to fourday stay in one of the neighborhood homes.”

Healthcare Hassles Relocating also means changing your healthcare and many times insurance providers. Ask your current doctors for recommendations in your new area. Research local hospitals or specialists. Depending on your healthcare needs, this could be a key consideration. Ensuring that your physical health is covered is key to reducing stress and maintaining good mental health.

Location, Location, Location Think long-term. “Many homeowners choose to relocate based on a favorite vacation spot,” notes Rushin. “However, the remote, relaxing feel of your getaway may not be ideal for your forever home. Proximity and easy access to shopping, entertainment, schools and professional services should be key considerations.”

Lifestyle Luxuries Once you’ve keyed in on the city, don’t just

jump to house shopping. Instead find the right community that fits your lifestyle. Are you a golfer, biker, nature-enthusiast? Think about the things that bring you the most pleasure and look for neighborhoods or communities offering these activities.

Social Support One of the most difficult parts of relocating is leaving your support system of friends and family. Research social clubs or other activities that you can get involved with to meet others with similar interests.

“At The Landings, more than 50 percent of our buyers are from out of state, so we help facilitate friendships through our New Neighbors group,” says Rushin. “The unique social group welcomes members to participate in a variety of activities and events for the first two years after

their move to make new friends, as well as learn about the rich history of the area and the community.”

For more information on The Landings, visit www.thelandings.com.

Relocation is stressful, but with research and preparation, the life change can be smooth and exciting.

(StatePoint) With warm weather, longer days, and more free time, it’s easy to find ways to stay fit in summer without a gym.

And while you may squeeze in a solo workout here and there, making fitness a social activity can keep participants motivated and accountable.

Summertime can be a perfect time to establish new fitness routines with friends or family members. If you’re new to finding workout buddies, here are four ways to get started – as well as shoe suggestions to help keep everyone comfortable and stylish this summer season.

1. Create your own fun run: In-person races may still be few and far between this summer, however, it’s still possible to enjoy the love of running. Map out a nature trail to hit once a week, sign up for virtual fun runs, or set up a series of running relay events in the neighborhood.

Men’s shoe to try: The Asics Mens GT 1000 10 running shoe is designed specifically for active runners and includes GEL technology cushioning in the heel to absorb shock.

Additionally, the AHAR Plus outsole holds up longer than the high abrasion rubber.

2. Learn a new sport: From tennis to beach volleyball and from soccer to golf, there are various ways to experience healthy activities as a group while adhering to social distancing guidelines. This can also be a

every step, and the mesh construction adds breathability.

3. Participate in an online class: Whether you enjoy Zumba classes or strength training programs, the online options to exercise are abundant these days. If you have several workout friends, set up a shared calendar and let everyone pick a class.

than the previous year. The inflated prices are largely due to a global automotive microchip shortage that affected the production of new cars, in turn creating higher demand for used vehicles.

In addition to paying more for a car that is harder to find, your vehicle will almost always depreciate the minute it’s driven off the lot. Plus, should your car be damaged in a crash, you might not even receive enough money from your insurance company to replace it, unless you have the right coverage.

Given the current issues with pricing and demand, it’s especially important to take steps to maintain as much of your vehicle’s value as possible and protect yourself against the inevitable depreciation. Here are four tips that can help: 1. Buy a vehicle with a high resale value. A study from Fleet

Financials found that within the same year, mid-size sedans depreciated 17.5% while compact crossovers only depreciated 12%.

2. Take care of your car. Cars in better condition with fewer miles, under 100,000 according to CarsDirect, will re-sell at higher rates. Stay on top of service and maintenance, address any issues as soon as possible and avoid unnecessary modifications such as window lettering.

3. Opt for used rather than new.

According to Carfax.com, the average car will be worth just 40% of its purchase price after five years. By choosing a fiveyear-old vehicle rather than a brand-new one, customers can save significantly.

4. Upgrade your auto insurance to cover what it would cost to replace your car. In the event of an accident, standard insurance typically covers the amount your vehicle is currently worth, not the amount it would cost you to buy another

VALLEY HO E IMPROVEMENT one. However, certain auto endorsements, such as Auto Security from Erie Insurance, cover the difference between current worth and the amount you owe on your vehicle. For example, if you’ve owned your new or used car less than two years and it gets totaled, Auto Security will reimburse you the cost to replace it with the newest model year.

If there’s an accident that’s not a total loss, Erie Insurance will pay to repair the vehicle without a deduction for depreciation.

“Being involved in an auto accident can be incredibly stressful,” said Jon Bloom, vice president of personal auto at Erie Insurance. “Should your car be damaged, our Auto Security endorsement can help give you peace of mind by covering more than a standard policy would.”

Any vehicle will lose value over time, but making informed decisions about your car and its insurance policy can save you money in the long run.
