HomeArama 2013 Six Exquisite Properties, Five Prominent Builders The Home Builders Association of Charlotte HomeArama returns for its 25th year featuring six homes with the latest innovations in home design and décor. November 9-24, 2013 in the exquisite Cheval community in historic Mint Hill.

By Melinda Johnston Charlotte Observer
Charlotte Homearama 2013 is coming to the Woodlands at Cheval off Lawyer’s Road in Mint Hill in November. Produced by the HomeBuilders Association of Charlotte, the event opens fully decorated custom homes to the public for a few weeks each fall. HomeBuilders Association Executive Director Kathryn Lewis says it’s an honor for a community to be chosen to hose the event. “This is an event that has a very long history in Charlotte. There are a number of factors that our selection committee considers before a decision is made. We are very excited to be working with Cheval. It’s a beautiful neighborhood,” Lewis said. Five homes in Cheval are expected to be open for the tour. Mint Hill senior planner John Hoard said the event is another indication that the economy is improving and development is ramping up in Mint Hill. The number of building permits issued by Mecklenburg County for Mint Hill seems to support that premise.
10 | YourAtHomeNow.com
In 2006, there were 322 permits issued in town, mostly for single family, residential construction. By 2010 that number had dropped to 19 for the entire year. Already this year, 41 building permits have been issued and the number continues to grow even though no new subdivisions have been approved. Hoard said builders are buying and developing lots approved in the past. The Cheval community has been in the planning stages for a while, and several homes are complete. Developer Paris Properties is beginning a concentrated marketing effort for the community with oversized lots, custom homes and natural surroundings. Builder Developer Advisors’ Diane Austin, who represents Paris Properties, said it’s a unique situation for the developer and the town. “We are so excited about what’s happening in Mint Hill. We have the new hospital on Albemarle Road. … Things are really starting to come together for Mint Hill. Homearama 2013 is going to be phenomenal.” Discount Tickets are available online @ charlottehomearama.com

We know Uptown like the back of our hand.
NO ONE WILL WORK HARDER TO GET YOU WHAT YOU DESERVE. The average Real Estate transaction in Charlotte today is $240,000. If you had a $240,000 income tax problem, would you attempt to deal with it without the help of a CPA? If you had a $240,000 law suit, would you deal with it without the help of an attorney? If you had a $240,000 heart attack, would you ask your friend to conduct surgery? Considering the small upside cost and the large downside risk, it would be foolish to consider a deal in real estate without the professional assistance of me as your REAL ESTATE EXPERT.

Decorating
1. Line Your Steps
There’s a reason you see mums each fall—they work. Once buds begin to open, you’re guaranteed blooms whether your display is in sun or shade. To prolong the show, water when dry and remove spent flowers. Pair with Mexican sage and boxwoods for this stunning display.
3. Natural Tablescape Simple white plates paired with timeless flatware and thin stemware keeps this more rustic setting looking elegant. Bold orange napkins give the setting a pop of seasonal color. 24 | YourAtHomeNow.com
2. Fall Foliage Arrangement The key to arranging leaves is to group them by size and color as you would flowers. Fiery red maple makes a beautiful focal point when countered with the feathery foliage of dawn redwood laden with globes of gray-green fruit on the fringes.
4. Make Pomanders Display oranges studded with dried whole cloves for a festive and fragrant addition to your Kitchen Island, coffee or dining table.
homefront
6. Make Custom Candleholders Transform mini pumpkins into luminaries by cutting a 1-inch-wide circle into each pumpkin, scooping out the centers with a tablespoon, and inserting votive candles.
5. Fun Serving Pieces Topped with silver serving pieces, pale gray and green pumpkins add interesting height to your buffet.
8. Blooming Pumpkin To make this arrangement, choose your favorite pumpkin (we like the flat-bottomed Fairytale) and pick up some violas, pansies, red and green leaf lettuce, thyme, and rosemary to decorate. Clean the pumpkins, cut a hole in the top, and scoop out seeds. Line with aluminum foil or a plastic bag, and fill three-quarters full with potting soil and plants.
7. Use Playful Place Cards Write the name of each guest on a leaf place card attached to a little felted acorn that doubles as a fun party favor. Scatter loose felted acorns—or real ones—up and down the table to play up the natural theme.
9 Fall Table Setting Host a stylish autumn get-together without breaking the bank by recycling things around the house. You can fill an oversize jug with branches of leaves cut from the yard for a free centerpiece. November 2013 | 25

You Should Buy, Not Rent
The “American Dream” of owning a home rather than renting is still alive and well. 1. Mortgage rates are CRAZY low Low rates are like unicorns; amazing and rare. By buying now, you’ll likely save thousands of dollars in interest, because rates can have a huge impact on your mortgage payment. 2. Protection against inflation Landlords have a tendency to increase rent every year or two to accommodate for inflation. This won’t happen if you own your home. 3. Save a lot on next year’s taxes As a homeowner, you’ll be able to deduct everything from real estate taxes, to private mortgage insurance, to loan points paid on a purchase. In other words, homeownership and tax savings go together like Peas and Carrots. 4. A sense of stability Owning your home is a lot more permanent than renting. You or your kids won’t have to worry about making new friends, or having to start anew in a strange city every few years. Buying a home is one of the best decisions you can make for you mental well-being. 5. Build equity Yes, you’re writing your mortgage company a check each month, but that money is still yours in the form of equity. Homeownership lets you build up your own monetary value, instead of your landlord’s. Submitted By: Frank Meadows, Keller Williams SouthPark Office November 2013 | 27
homefront
Why use a Realtor to buy? 1. You are getting someone to help you for free. The seller always pays the commission. So you might as well have a Realtor help you find your new home. 2. Having your own Realtor means that you have someone looking out for your best interest. 3. Realtors have tools that you do not. These are very important when you are looking for a particular neighborhood or particular type of home that may sell quickly. This way you catch it as soon as it comes on the market. This ensures that you get the opportunity to purchase them before someone else. 4. The last thing that you want to do in today’s economy is over pay for a house. So call a Realtor before you purchase a home. Besides do you really have the time to make forty phone calls for ten houses you want to see ?

Q
Questions:
with Jo
about Charlotte area real estate market
Q:
What is the purpose of the North Carolina Residential Property and Owners’ Disclosure Statement and should I receive a copy before I make an offer on a house or afterwards?
A:
The North Carolina Residential Property and Owners’ Disclosure Statement is completed by the Seller when he/she offers the home for sale. It is the responsibility of the seller or the seller’s real estate professional to have an easily accessible copy of the Disclosure available to the buyer and the buyer’s real estate professional. This Disclosure is crucial for the Buyer to determine the price and terms he/she wishes to propose. The buyer should never commit to purchase a home without having first been able to access and review the Disclosure. When the seller completes the Disclosure, he/she has the legal responsibility for truthfully answering any of the questions relating to the property. Those questions include but are not limited to the age and condition of the home, the roof, the heating and air conditioning systems; an explanation of any problems, malfunctions or defects associated with any component of the house such as the electrical, plumbing, irriga-
&A
tion, sewer/septic, and water supply systems, central vac, fans, gas logs, and kitchen appliances; problems from past or present wood destroying organism damage that has not been repaired, and soil or draining issues that could compromise the structural integrity of the home. The seller must also disclose any changes to the home (ie addition of a garage, sunroom, pool), any violation to local ordinances, zoning, building codes, or home owner restrictions; any hazardous substances or commercial nuisances, easements or encroachments that could negatively affect the value of the property, and any lawsuits, foreclosures, leases, liens, or judgements that could have an adverse effect on the property. If any portion of the property is in the flood plain, the seller must disclose that as well. Finally, the seller must disclose if the property is affected by a Home Owners’ Association, and if so, the details of the financial obligation of the homeowner to the association as well as the distribution of the dues/fees collected. Ultimately, the purpose of the Disclosure is to make certain that the buyer has all the pertinent information necessary in order to make an informed decision regarding the purchase of the home.

Meritage Homes Debuts Nine Communities In Charlotte
Homes combine spacious lots and distinctive designs with energy-efficient features to help owners live comfortably, save money Meritage Homes is taking the Charlotte-metro area by storm with a new kind of home that boasts distinctive designs while also saving owners money. At its nine communities throughout the metropolitan area, homebuyers can choose from 50 floor plans in spacious homes that range in size from 2,865 to more than 5,200 square feet. Along with style, the homes integrate more than a dozen standard, energy-efficient and sustainable features to help owners save up to 50 percent per year on their energy bill. Among these features are high-performance wall systems, spray-foam insulation that creates an airtight seal and consistent temperatures in the home, and Low-E2 vinyl windows that reduce energy costs by up to half when compared with regular windows. There is also an indoor air quality management system, plus low-flow showerheads and faucets, a weather-sensing irrigation system and even cutting-edge renewable technologies. This is significant, because these features can equate to real cost and energy savings over the life of their mortgage, according to Rick Robertson, Meritage Homes’ Charlotte division president. “Homeowners shouldn’t have to choose between style and savings,” he said. Cost and environmental benefits aside, Robertson said that Meritage’s energy-efficient homes are healthier, cleaner, more comfortable and safer than other homes on the market today, too.
“Most people who live in Meritage-built communities don’t consider themselves ‘green,’” he said. “The fact is, you don’t have to be an environmentalist to want to save energy and money by living in an energy-efficient home.” Meritage has been at the forefront of bringing a responsible, environmentally conscious approach to homebuilding throughout the Western, Southern and Southeastern United States. In fact, Meritage was the first national homebuilder to be 100 percent ENERGY STAR qualified in every home it builds, and the company’s homes far exceed ENERGY STAR standards today. Earlier this year, as validation for its work, Meritage earned the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year for Sustained Excellence Award for its innovation and industry leadership in energy-efficient homebuilding. “Living in a home that saves you money, reduces environmental impact and creates a healthier, more comfortable environment for families may sound futuristic, but Meritage is making all of this and more available in Charlotte today,” Robertson said. The timing is right, too. Despite the recent rise in mortgage rates, “demand for the right kind of home continues to be strong,” he said. To learn more about Meritage Homes’ communities in the Charlotte metropolitan area, call 704-944-8901 or visit www.meritagehomes.com/charlotte-nc.

What’s Your Home’s Price Tag Now?
As the housing market bounces back in many parts of the country, you may be wondering: What’s my home worth now? There’s actually more than one answer, according to Scott Halliwell, a certified financial planner at USAA. He says your home has three potentially very different price tags based on its: 1. Market value 2. Replacement value 3. Property tax value “Since different values can be used for different reasons, it’s important to understand when each applies,” Halliwell says, adding that some of these values may move in different directions at the same time.

Market value
Replacement value
This is the amount homes in your area are bought and sold for. It’s the measure most folks think of when they try to estimate their home’s worth or value. Determined in part by the going rate for similar houses in your city and neighborhood, market value is not based on what you paid for the home or how much it cost you to finish out the basement, reroof or remodel the kitchen. Many intangibles factor into this figure. Understanding the market value helps you calculate your total net worth and how much equity you have in your home. To calculate equity, subtract the amount you owe on your home from its market value: That’s about how much profit you could receive from a sale. To strengthen your negotiating position with potential buyers, get an accurate idea of your home’s market value. A real estate agent can tell you the selling prices of similar homes in your area, helping you set reasonable expectations. “If your area is in a buyer’s market, your home’s market value may be lower than you’d like. You might not have as much leverage against a buyer who wants to negotiate, so you need to know where you’re starting,” Halliwell says. Even if you’re planning to stay in your home, market value matters when taking out a home equity line of credit or home equity loan. For example, you may be planning a kitchen remodel and need $40,000, or you want to tap your equity to help pay your kids’ college tuition. Depending on your creditworthiness, many lenders will allow you to borrow up to 85 percent of your home’s value, less any mortgage or other equity loan on that property.
If your home is completely destroyed because of, say, a fire or natural disaster, replacement cost is what it would take to remove debris and rebuild the structure from the ground up based on construction costs in your area. “Our philosophy, which is backed by years of experience, is that homes should be insured for 100 percent of the minimum estimated replacement cost,” says Cedric Matterson, a senior staff underwriter with USAA. Unless your insurance covers replacement costs, he says, you run the risk of coming up short if the costs to rebuild your home are more than your coverage will pay. As building costs go up, homeowners insurance can shield you from rising building costs. “It’s very possible to see local building costs increase while market values decline,” Halliwell says. “This can lead to a situation where you actually need more dwelling coverage, despite seeing your home’s value drop.” Property tax value This is the number taxing authorities use to calculate your property tax bill. A given home may be taxed by more than one jurisdiction - hospital and school districts, for example - and each may apply its own math. Typically, property tax values are meant to approximate the home’s market value, though sometimes there’s a big discrepancy between the two because of outdated assessments or mistakes by assessors. An accurate property tax valuation ensures your tax bill isn’t too low or too high and helps to ensure that your entire tax burden is understood. If the property tax value of your home exceeds the market value, consider contesting the value with your taxing authority. And be aware that certain actions on your part, such as remodeling, could cause a reassessment and result in a larger tax bill.

Green Moving Tips
Earth-Friendly Ways to Move By Tim Johnson
When you hear the term “green moving,” it might conjure up images of packing your things in large bamboo leaves and hiring a team of non-CO2-emitting Sherpas to carry them across town. In actuality, green moving means being conscientious of our environment and employing methods that are not harmful to the earth. Green moving is a growing trend in the moving industry. It involves tweaking practices that have historically been big on waste such as throwing away cardboard boxes and bubble wrap or moving your belongings in smoke-belching semi trucks. Earth-friendly moving means scaling back a bit. Granted, the green theme has permeated many industries. Traditionally non-green industries such as automotive, energy and housing are now embracing new business practices that take into account short- and long-term effects on the environment. Likewise, green moving has gained in popularity, moving the demand for green moving into a prominent position. Green Moving Tips • This seems obvious, but don’t accumulate as much stuff in the first place. Less is generally better for the planet anyway, and the less stuff you move, the less gas your moving truck will burn. Green moving can also translate into more “green” for you because you’ll likely spend less to move your household. • Get rid of stuff before you move it. Consider holding a garage sale, or selling your unnecessary items online at eBay or through Craigslist. • Buy used cardboard boxes. Moving companies generally prefer that customers use new cardboard boxes to ensure stability, which means a lot of cardboard boxes get tossed after only one use. If using cardboard boxes, look for boxes made of recycled material. • Rent moving boxes. When packing, take advantage of companies that offer reusable packing crates, which can eliminate that waste. One such outfit that rents sturdy packing crates made of recycled plastic bottles is California-based Earth Friendly Moving. The company drops off the crates before you move and 48 | YourAtHomeNow.com
picks them up afterward in its fleet of bio-diesel trucks. Another company is Rent-A-Crate, a nationwide firm that offers moving crates made of recyclable high density polypropylene. • Cut back on the bubble wrap. You can use old newspapers for non-fragile items, or even old sheets or towels as packing material. These weigh more and don’t offer as much benefit as the lighter bubble wrap, but anything you can do to cut back helps. • Look for environmentally-friendly cleaning products when moving out. Seventh Generation is a national brand of cleaning products that makes toilet bowl cleaners, dishwashing powder and carpet cleaners. These products can be found at many large discount chains such as Target. • Hire moving companies that tout environmentally friendly attributes. One such firm is Go Green Moving, which owns bio-diesel trucks, uses moving pads made of 100% recycled cotton and rents packing crates. • Ask that a company employ eco-friendly practices, especially if it doesn’t. If moving companies believe that consumers are demanding environmentally friendly moves, the moving industry will feel obligated to adopt green moving methods. Green Tips After Moving Into Your New Home Finally, after you’ve moved in to your new home, it’s a good time to think about other ways you can leave less of an environmental footprint. • You can stop junk mail by registering with the Mail Preference Service at the Direct Marketing Association. It won’t stop all the stuff you get daily in your mail, but it will help to reduce a large portion of unwanted paper. • Set up a recycling center in your new kitchen where it’s easy and handy to separate paper from plastic recyclables. Making recycling easy to do ensures that you’ll be more likely to do it. • Think before buying. When shopping for a non-essential item, ask yourself a simple question: When the times comes to move again, will you relish the idea of moving it? • Reduce the possessions you own by recycling or donating an item when you bring a similar item into your home.

How To Make Your Home Stand Out In A Hot Real Estate Market (BPT) - The residential housing market is heating up, but before you post that for-sale sign, consider making upgrades that add style and value to your home. With many buyers seeking wood floors, kitchen upgrades and other add-ons, it’s important for homeowners to highlight these features so their property stands out from the competition in today’s market. “It all comes down to dollars and ‘sense,’ “ says Linda Jovanovich of the American Hardwood Information Center. “In addition to warmth, beauty and durability, hardwood features increase your home’s resale value. Even with a modest budget, if you take the time and price your options, updating worn floors, dated cabinetry, and lackluster walls will make a significant difference. And it’s easier and less expensive than you think.” Survey says hardwood floors sell When it’s time to sell, hardwood floors not only add good looks, they increase the value of your home. According to a nationwide survey of real estate agents commissioned by the National Wood Flooring Association in 2012, 99 percent of respondents agreed that homes with hardwood floors are easier to sell. In addition, 90 percent said these homes sell for more money.
wood sells,” notes Gartner, adding that you’re in luck if you already have a hardwood floor under a carpet. “Clients are shocked when I tell them it’s almost always less expensive to refinish a hardwood floor than it is to re-carpet a room.” What about the kitchen?
Real estate agent Strader advises sellers to “upgrade their kitchens prior to going on the market because buyers see kitchen upgrades as being rather expensive.” He adds that, “Homes “Absolutely true,” says Bob Strader, a real estate agent with The NORTH Group of Keller without updated kitchens will take longer to Williams Realty in Atlanta. “Between two sim- sell, and will sell for less.” ilar properties, buyers will gravitate toward the home with hardwood floors, and that home will Gerry Henley, president of Kitchen Solvers, a national kitchen and bath remodeling franchise, sell in half the time.” suggests simple cabinetry updates that won’t Debbie Gartner, known as “The Flooring Girl” by break the bank but will result in a higher return customers at her New York-based flooring store, on your investment.

Maple cabinets by Wellborn, stained in a rich gray tone, complemented by a charcoal stained cherry island and contrasting hardwood floor, provide a striking kitchen redo.
“Many homeowners overlook the low cost and high impact of re-facing their existing kitchen cabinets,” he says. “By swapping out dated doors and drawer pulls, a homeowner can get the look of a newly updated kitchen and save up to 50 percent of the cost of a complete overhaul. Cabinet re-facing is a quick-moving project and the kitchen remains functional throughout installation.” Value in the details Architectural details - hardwood crown moulding, baseboards and other millwork add depth and character, provide a finished look, and change lackluster to extraordinary, so much so that according to the 2012 National Association of Home Builders’ “What Home Buyers Really Want” study, crown moulding ranks higher than other luxury features such as fireplaces, kitchen seating and window seats. Strader agrees. “From my experience, millwork
adds the ‘wow’ factor that stays in a buyer’s mind. And most sellers are unaware that a custom look can be obtained relatively inexpensively with off-the-shelf moulding patterns available at home improvement stores.” The American Hardwood Information Center offers some additional tips to keep costs low. For crown and other decorative ceiling mouldings, consider using a less expensive species such as poplar. Where durability is a must, such as baseboards, door casings and chair rails, consider a harder species, like white oak. Make it a win-win Upgrade with American Hardwoods to maximize your home’s value. Visit the American Hardwoods Information Center, www.HardwoodInfo.com, or visit American Hardwoods’ Pinterest page to browse budget-friendly ideas on updating with American Hardwoods flooring, cabinetry and millwork.

This is exactly what home sellers want when they stand out. put their house on the market. The essential oils used in the practice of aromatherapy The concept of ambient fragrance started to trickle into the offer a more practical and potent way to use scent marketing real estate market years ago. Savvy real estate agents advised to move buyers to feel good about a property. Tiny amounts sellers to bake cookies or cinnamon rolls in the homes they of familiar, tempting aromas like cinnamon, clove, vanilla and were showing to create a comforting, deliciously scented atmo- orange, can fill a whole house with pleasant ambient frasphere meant to entice buyers. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to sell a home in grance. An added bonus is that essential oils are all-natural and todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s challenging real estate market, you may have tried this distilled from plants. They are less likely to elicit the kind of technique. However, with the excess of available homes, you adverse reactions that harsh synthetic fragrances do.
Here are some home-made recipes to keep you home smelling great! Vanilla Amber Aroma Crystals Ingredients: 1 cup coarse-grained, chunky sea salt 1 teaspoon jojoba or grapeseed oil (just enough to make the salts glisten and gleam) 25 drops vanilla precious essential oil 10 drops lavender essential oil 10 drops sweet orange essential oil Directions: Mix salt and oils, pour into a decorative dish or bowl and set out on a table. Placing the crystals in a warm sunny window or near a heat register will help diffuse the delicious aroma throughout the room. Stir in additional essential oils to boost the scent as needed.
Flowers and Bergamot Vacuum Powder Ingredients: 1 cup baking soda 35 drops bergamot orange essential oil 5 drops ylang ylang or neroli (orange flower) essential oil Directions: Mix baking soda and essential oils in a canister and lightly sprinkle over carpets, then vacuum. Because essential oils are so concentrated, a little goes a long way. An initial investment in a small 1/2 ounce bottle of oil will provide you with enough applications to conduct dozens of open houses. Using essential oils to craft your own bit of psychological scent marketing might provide a good return on a small investment. Aromatherapy may give you that much-needed unique and surprising edge-up on the competition. Learn more at www. auracacia.com.
