Home. It is meant to be a place of retreat, rest, love, and a shelter from the outside world—a place where you can let your guard down and just be. March is our Home and Design issue. Creating a home that you want to spend all of your time in isn’t easy. The memories that are made within the walls of our home are what lasts regardless if our home has the latest trends or if it hasn’t been updated in years. While it is fun to look at beautiful homes and dream about renovations, we all know that the love we share in our homes is truly what matters most. In this year’s Home issue, we take a peek inside some local homes that boast beautiful designs that I hope will leave you inspired. From our home to yours, we wish you love, peace and happiness.

Guild Mortgage (NYSE: GHLD), a rapidly growing mortgage company that has originated and serviced residential loans since 1960, is the recipient of the J.D. Power award for “Highest in Customer Satisfaction with Primary Mortgage Origination in the U.S.,” in its 2021 Primary Mortgage Origination Satisfaction Study. This was one of five areas that Guild ranked No. 1. In acknowledging the awards, Mary Ann McGarry, CEO, said “More than anything, ranking number one in Overall Customer Satisfaction is a direct reflection of our culture of customer service and our business model, which focuses on our branch offices where loan officers can make personal connections with clients.”

should not make a house affordable or unaffordable. You are wiser buying at the right time than chasing a low rate at the wrong time. Owning your first home, or moving to a new home can be a very positive step. The decision of when to do it is critical.” Consider not only the financial cost and responsibilities but also how other aspects of life influence the timing of a home purchase. Things such as job stability, career goals, retirement, future financial resources and obligations, changing family structure or age of children all should be factored in. A home purchase is not a shortterm commitment. Ask, “Does this fit into my plans for the next 3-7 years”. If so, you are ready for the next step.

For over 20 years, Don Conwell and his team in Tulsa, have served clients in eight states and modeled Guild’s dedication to service, character, and integrity. His passion to provide financial guidance to clients led him to provide these insights into the process. “Buying a home is a commitment and people will often begin their search without properly preparing. You can count on this: Once you start looking for a new home you will fall in love quickly, and maybe more than once.” To save time, money, frustration, and disappointment Don advises asking the following questions.

2. WHAT MONTHLY PAYMENT AM I COMFORTABLE MAKING?

1. IS IT THE RIGHT TIME TO PURCHASE A HOME? “I am not referring to the ups and downs of the housing market or interest rates. We often hear that now is the time to buy because of low interest rates. While it is true that rates are climbing, I do not advise clients to chase a rate if a home purchase does not currently make sense in their life. If you are making wise financial decisions, the interest rate

“Let me note here I am not talking about just principal and interest. It is dishonest when someone discusses a payment with you but only includes principal and interest and excludes taxes, insurance and other obligations. It sounds great but it is not reality. In addition, you would think that after all we have been through in the past 15 years that you could not be approved to buy more house than you can afford. This is not true. Even with government guidelines aimed at preventing you from getting in too deep, you can still drown if you are not careful. In fact, I would go so far as to say the amount you can qualify to buy is, if not irrelevant, the absolute wrong question to start with.” There is not a one-size-fits-all. “Regardless of income and other financial considerations, each person views a home differently. We all have limited resources. The choices you make here will have a ripple effect in what money is available for other things. Are you a person whose home is your castle? Is it where you like

to spend most of your time? Does your family, relaxation, entertainment and social life mainly involve activities in your home? On the flip side are you just looking for a place to drop your backpack and rejuvenate before your next trip to the Amazon? Giving consideration to how the home, and in turn the monthly payment, fits your lifestyle is critical to home ownership being a joyful experience. You do not want to end up, house rich, and life poor.”

3. HOW MUCH MONEY SHOULD I PUT INTO A HOME PURCHASE? This will determine the types of loans available, the cost of those loans and the offer you will make on a home. Like the timing and monthly payment decisions, the answer to this question will also need to align with not only your current situation but your longer-term plans. If you have few dollars available, or by choice or necessity you would like to get into a home with as little money as possible, options for financing will be more limited. If, on the other end of the scale you could pay cash for a home, you are still faced with the decision of what is the best way to use your money. This can be a complicated decision which should always involve your financial advisor. Regardless of how much money is available to put down on a home there are a couple of things that everyone needs to ask themselves. The first being “What other cash needs will owning a home involve?” First time home buyers can be surprised at the number of items needed to furnish and maintain a home. Even seasoned homeowners find that: “There is no way that old furniture is

F IN A N CIA L BU Z Z | FIN ANCE + LE GAL S E RVI CE S

going in our new home”. Credit card financing of these “wants” and ”needs” is not wise. Adding new debt on top of a new house payment is not a recipe for financial health or a peaceful night’s sleep. Another point is that simply maintaining a home takes money. Opinions of how much to plan for annually vary, but a good estimate is 1% of your home’s value. The ever-present hailstorm in May, the air conditioning unit in August or the chilling ice storms in December are all easier experiences to endure if you have prepared financially. Typically, the older the home the more “maintenance surprises” you will have. A well-maintained existing home or a newly constructed home can significantly reduce unexpected maintenance costs. Even if the house does not throw you a curve, life may. You need to ask “After my home closes will I have enough money left over to cover unexpected life expenses? Cash needs such as medical expenses, car repair or replacement or even a drop in income need to be considered. To prepare for these requires discipline and the establishment of what is often called an “emergency fund”. A good goal for this fund would be 3- 6 times your monthly income. Having this safety net when purchasing a home should be a top priority

4. WHAT DON’T I KNOW ABOUT THE PROCESS? At the same time you are trying to answer the timing, down payment, and monthly payment questions, you should also be meeting with an experienced professional. Find someone you can trust who can put all the pieces together. It is important that your advisor can map out

a plan that takes into account where you are, where you want to be, and the resources you have available. This pre-approval process is normally required before submitting an offer and will also give you the confidence to know that when all is said and done you are where you want to be. The lender will look at every aspect of your finances to discover and assist with any unknown opportunities or hurdles. Your credit history, income, debt, banking and investment information, taxes, legal documents, etc.

will need to be provided. In all honesty, this can be the most annoying and intimidating aspect of the process. Your lender should proactively and peacefully guide you through this stage.

THE TIMELESS ART FORM OF S TAINED GL A S S WINDOWS 18

Dan and Stacie Lykins recently added this beautiful window to create a spa atmosphere.

BRING MESMERIZING PALETTES OF COLOR, WARMTH AND BEAUTY INTO THE HOME The purpose of windows is to see outside and add light and beauty to the interior of the home. The purpose of stained glass windows is to beautify the home, control light, and provide privacy. Making stained glass windows thrived during the Medieval and Gothic periods when stained glass windows became popular in cathedrals, town halls, and wealthy homes. Stained glass artistry declined and by 1640, stained glass was rare. In the mid-nineteenth century there was a revival of the Gothic style and

a renewed interest in the lost art of stained glass making. Tiffany lamps gained popularity as did modern stained glass windows by renowned artists like Louis Comfort Tiffany and Frank Lloyd Wright. The revival was cut short because of the depression and World War ll. Over the last few decades, interest in stained glass windows has revived and it’s also a popular hobby. Stained glass windows usher in natural sunlight and bring a new level of beauty when colors of the sun filter through

and bring mesmerizing palettes of color, warmth and beauty into the home. Depending on the design and purpose, the visual masterpiece can be a focal point leaving a lasting impression. The styles and sizes of the windows range from traditional to minimalist and subtle to bold. Stained glass is a timeless art form. According to Richard Bohm, owner of Tulsa Stained Glass, “People move their stained glass windows when they buy a different house. They invest time in designing windows that are an extension of their personality, or even a tribute to a person or life event.” Tulsa Stained Glass, located at 4131 S Sheridan Road, is a full-service stained glass studio and store serving Tulsa since 1975. Owner Richard and staff offer design and installation of residential, commercial

and religious stained glass projects as well as restoration and repair of stained glass antiques and heirlooms. Their work can be seen in diverse locations including the bars at Boone Pickens Stadium and the Columbarium at Boston Avenue Methodist Church in downtown Tulsa. Dan and Stacie Lykins of Tulsa wanted to create something unique in their home providing a relaxing atmosphere. “A spa type of escape where at the end of the day, as the sun shines through from the west, the stained glass window comes alive with vibrant colors providing an amazing area to unwind after a long day.” Kanya Kelley and her family purchased a home last year with a stained glass window already in it. “The window is a pretty focal point to the room and provides privacy. We get the light without seeing the neighbor’s house.” Richard utilizes his experience and knowledge of materials and techniques to deliver fresh artistic adventures and passion while honoring the centuries-old craft of traditional stained glass.

The kitchen boasts quartz countertops with a waterfall edge island, professional series appliances, and European-style pattern-matched clear walnut cabinetry.

Architect David Center of DA Center & Associates was tasked with turning an outdated mid-50’s ranch style home with small, segregated rooms into an open concept plan with modern features that would stand out from its neighbors. Center says, “On a trip to Austin, Texas, I noticed many homes in the historic SoCo district were being renovated by including additions that could only be classified as modern architecture. The marriage of old and new was a sharp contrast to other surrounding homes and was just what I needed to make this home a standout.” Owners, Jeremy and Natalie Carrico love the warm modern look combined with the Texas Hill Country style. They say that everyone who walks through the front door immediately falls in love with the home. “We love all the natural light and open living spaces. The view of the treetops from the clerestory windows in the bedrooms is amazing! The unique luxury imported materials used throughout the home such as the Porcelanosa tiles from Spain and European-style pattern-matched walnut cabinetry is stunning,” they say.

The spa bathroom, professionally designed lighting, and stainless-steel galley-style sink make the home beautiful as well as functional.

Listing agent, Amy Cavallin, says, “What I love about Center’s work is the unique artistry in his design. It’s so much more than walls and windows. It’s a thoughtful use of space and light, the careful balance of rustic and modern, of comfort and technology. He seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living spaces to create peaceful environments. It truly creates a glamorous, yet cozy feel unlike any other I’ve experienced.” The Carrico’s purchased the home with the intention of downsizing. A mere four years later, the couple realized they needed more space and privacy for their family. “We love the neighborhood and decided to build just around the corner. We will be incorporating the same warmth, light and airy feel into our new home,” they say.

Hire Experts Early in a Family Law Case If you are going through a divorce or family law matter, expert witnesses are often needed to make the best case. Whether it be to enhance settlement negotiations or present a case at trial, experts are often needed. Expert witnesses can give opinion based testimony in areas that can be extremely important to a divorce or family law case. The possibilities are really endless, but here are several common expert witnesses that can be needed in cases. Real estate appraisers – In many cases, the value of the marital home or other property can be crucial to the case itself. Hiring an expert real estate appraiser can help resolve the issue of the value of the home or other real estate. Business valuators – In some divorce cases, the parties might own a business or have a business interest. Knowing the value of the business or business interest can often be crucial to settling a case or presenting it at trial. Mental health experts – Mental health experts like psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, or therapists can often give testimony that might be useful as it relates to child custody cases.

In some cases, they might even be able to testify their opinion as it relates to a child custody determination based on the best interests of the child as a custody evaluator. They also might be able to render an opinion about parental alienation or realistic estrangement. Vocational experts – Parties may allege that the other spouse is capable of gainful employment or capable of employment at a higher wage. This can be relevant as to child support or spousal spouse. A vocational expert can help give this kind of testimony. Computer forensic accountants – Computer forensic experts can often be useful in tracking down the computer and electronic data for a divorce or family law case. This could be relevant as to child custody or marital misconduct. It could also be relevant as to the financial aspects of the divorce. Forensic accountants – A forensic account can often help trace separate, pre-marital assets in a divorce. They also might be able to perform lifestyle analysis, in addition to business valuation. Other kinds of potential expert witnesses might be needed in a divorce or family law matter as well. These are just a few examples. The key no matter

the situation is to enlist these experts as soon as possible. Many divorce and family law matters can be set for court dates and/or trial relatives quickly. Many courts also set deadlines for the disclosure of expert witnesses. In some instances, an expert might even be able to help settle the case early before court dates of trial. If you delay hiring an expert, you can often end up in a position where it is too late to hire and have the expert ready for court. You could also find yourself in a position where you may be asking the court for a continuance to get an expert enlisted. This can delay the resolution to a case. This is why you must hire an expert, when needed, early in the process.
