On the Waterfront
Although it seems Traditionally, waterfront condominiums have been a solid investment. Since the U.S. has roughly 11,000 miles of coastline (not counting Alaska and Hawaii), and millions of people, it is not hard to understand why these homes are rare, and pricey, gems. Consider the Seaport District in Downtown Boston. Seaport has become one of the hottest areas in Boston to live. Like most condo buildings in the District, Fort Point Channel, Channel Center and FP3 are lofts with wide open floor plans, water and city views, designer kitchens and bathrooms and high ceilings too. Around this community, life is bustling. Seaport offers it's own slice of urban life with restaurants like Legal's Test Kitchen and cultural destinations namely the Institute of Contemporary Arts. In addition, the Boston's Children's Museum is great for kids of all ages. My son loves the train table. Speaking of trains, transportation is key for Seaport dwellers. Therefore, South Station is easily accessible as is the water taxi that takes 18

frequent flyers to Logan Airport from the Seaport Hotel. Yet, some say Boston is a concrete jungle. Hence, if you fancy scenic seascapes over city sirens, you might try Plymouth Harbor and Robbin's Wharf Condominiums. Robbin's Wharf abuts 18 acres of conservation land and is centrally located in the Harbor. Built in 2010, the site has 26 residences and three varying floor plans. Each home's features include high ceilings, patios and decks, jacuzzi tub, double showers, spacious gourmet kitchens and panoramic views of Plymouth Harbor, Saquish Head, Long Beach and beyond. Robbins Wharf offers more than just style. No matter your interests, there's always something to do in Plymouth. For example, you'll have a select choice of nine different beaches and Myles Standish State Forest sprawled across 15,000 acres. The park has 13 miles of hiking, 15 of biking and 35 of equestrian trails not to mention 16 ponds. For golfers, The Pine Hills is home to two
championship, 18-hole courses, one designed by Jack Nicklaus and the other, Robert Trent Jones. To play either course is well worth the trip. Aside from golf , I always love a good culinary experience. With that in mind, Poippi's Wine Cruises serve eight wines with four different dishes from some of Plymouth's best chefs while sailing along Plymouth Harbor. Like Boston, Plymouth Harbor sits on the Atlantic. If you'd prefer to be down by the bay, Narragansett Bay is home to Surfside Narragansett. Surfside is a 100 unit complex developed by Providence, RI's Gilbane Development Company. Out of the gross lot, 20 remain. In today's new developments, choice finishes and features are fairly common. Yet, what makes Surfside unique is the energy efficient features. Anderson 400 series windows and doors are used throughout the property. These have been certified to meet “green building” standards and
come with an Energy Star Certificate. More to the point, the HVAC provides a minimum of 90% efficiency and comes with the energy star label as do the major appliances. If you like greenery, Surfside has an eclectic roster of activities from biking on the 6-mile South County Bike Path to grabbing a charter boat for a fly fishing expedition or a whale watch. Moreover, if you prefer to watch fishermen rather than be one yourself, head to Galilee Fishing Village and see the fishing industry in action. Sharon A. Veins is the Director of Marketing and Sales for Surfside and a broker, a designation she's held for over 18 years. Veins knows the ropes of the area and development lifestyle. “Gilbane offers a 2-year warranty on the residence and a 1-year warranty on the appliances. . . We are across from Narragansett beach. The location is one of the top destinations in the pier market,” says Viens.

How Credit Affects Your Ability To Get A Mortgage by Peter DeFusco
Your credit is a still the major factor in determining if you will be approved for a mortgage. The way lenders asses your credit is by pulling your FICO scores from the three major credit bureaus, Experian, Trans Union, and Equifax. Each repository gives a numerical value to your credit which is known as your FICO score. Lenders will use the middle score to determine first if you are eligible and then what type of interest rate you may get. The three fico scores are always different because creditors sometimes only report to either one or two of the bureaus. The middle score gives the lender the best indication of your ability to pay the loan back.
Here’s how your score is determined: 35 percent is determined by your payment history. Do you regularly pay your bills or fines on time to any creditor that submits your information to the credit bureau? Even unpaid library fines, medical bills or parking tickets may appear here. 30 percent is based on the amounts you owe

each of your creditors, and how that compares with the total credit available to you or the total loan amount you took out. If you’re maxing out your credit cards, your score may suffer. 15 percent is based on the length of your credit history, both how long you’ve had each account and how long it’s been since you had any activity on those accounts. The fewer and older the accounts, the better (assuming you’ve made timely payments). 10 percent is based on how many accounts you’ve recently opened compared with the total number of your accounts, as well as the number of recent inquiries on your report made by lenders to whom you’ve applied for credit.Your score can drop if it looks as if you’re seeking several new sources of credit - a sign that you may be in financial trouble. The final 10 percent is determined by the types of credit used. Having installment debt - like a mortgage, in which you pay a fixed amount each
month - demonstrates that you can manage a large loan. But how you handle revolving debt, like credit cards, tends to carry more weight since it’s seen as more predictive of future behavior. It is crucial that you know your credit history before you apply for a mortgage. Your FICO score will determine what interest rate you qualify for. Until recently a credit score of 680 was considered A plus, that has now changed. 740 is the new high water mark for qualifying for the lowest rates on a

United Better Homes + Infinity from Marvin = Perfect Match By Greg Sampson
Brian Coutcher, Keith Fitzsimmons, Ed Roman of United Better Homes Will Marvin, Jeremiah Lundgren of Infinity from Marvin Earlier this month I had the opportunity to learn about the Infinity from Marvin Replacement Windows, why Will Marvin chose United Better Homes as it’s exclusive dealer in Southern New England and why United Better Homes feels that Marvin is a perfect fit for their customers. I for one fell in love with the window and the professionalism of both brands so hopefully you do too. The Infinity from Marvin replacement window is designed to offer a superior appearance and performance with virtually no maintenance. The window brings an impeccable design, is weather tight, super durable, and comes with a warranty that you can rely on for life. The Infinity is a green friendly product that has gone through vigorous testing to surpass all Federal guidelines 56
NEHomeLife.com | September 2012
for energy, strength, and AAMA standards. Marvin's patented Ultrex makes the Infinity the only window built 100% out of fiberglass while other windows in the same category are fiberglass reenforced, or made of composite materials. The Infinity is truly a one of a kind window! So why would Marvin choose United Better Homes as it’s exclusive dealer in RI & Southeastern MA? "We were looking for established, reputable, home improvement experts that hold themselves to a higher standard with their product, their community, and customer satisfaction. We felt they share Marvin's values and commitment to both their employees and their customers" said Will Marvin, New Account Development Manager for Infinity from Marvin.
Quite a testimonial for the United Better Homes brand, don’t you think? The UBH Team is more than excited to represent the Marvin brand and even gave me some insight as to why they felt the Infinity replacement window was a fit for their clientele. “A window with a history of over 100 years of excellence, at a price right in line with other inferior composites is a huge victory for our clients. Why pay the same for half the product? Plus the client receives an installation done to perfection backed by UBH Lifetime Bundle Warranty for our labor, said
Keith Fitzsimmons, UBH General Manager. We felt that Marvin has the same goals and standards that we do as a company. Marvin backs up our way of thinking in terms of quality of product warranty and price. Our goal is to always provide a high quality, long lasting product and still be convenient price wise. Will and the Marvin Companies made us feel like we are now partners of an excellent brand from our first conversation, so we are very excited to provide the residents of Southern New England with this great product and opportunity.�
Looking in and Looking Out Window Treatments That Work By NEHL Staff
In our homes windows provide a true connection to the outside world while providing protection from the elements each day. Their transparency allows natural light into our homes while keeping us connected to the outdoors. There is nothing that defines a home and its style and character more than its windows. They truly are an expression of our own individual style and preference. In the last 35 years window design and technology have lead the market in advances in quality, efficiency and function. At the same time window treatments have kept the pace with new technologies that offer great features, unlimited styles and a very wide selection of textures and colors. From the inside out window treatments today represent more than just a look. They are fixtures of the home that are expressions of style 58
NEHomeLife.com | September 2012
and design that control light, energy and privacy. Window treatment design is no longer just decorating your home there are a lot of factors to consider beyond privacy and colors. Today’s window treatments offer incredible value and function. They are energy efficient and offer multi seasonal function for both heat and cold and provide protection from UV light that fades carpet and furniture in the home. A number of product available today also qualify for federal energy tax credits including honeycomb shades, plantation shutters and Draperies, especially those identified as “insulated drapes” and window films with insulating properties. The most common mistake we all have made over and over is shopping at one of the do it yourself superstores for window treatment. While they often look great in the store in their
professionally installed displays it rarely works out the same when we get the product home and install them. Window treatments and installation is a craft and better done by a trained and certified professional. Each home is unique and the value of the right advice on what will work best in your home is priceless not to mention professional measuring and installation that is guaranteed. Window Works has been a fixture in window treatments in Southern New England for over 23 years. They have extensive experience in residen-
tial and commercial window treatments and handle repairs and replacement parts. Their expert staff will come to your home or business and provide you with a complete selection of products. They provide free measuring service and free repairs and service on all products installed by their company. They will work with almost any budget to insure that you are getting the best possible value for all your window treatments.

5 tips on organizing your clothes closets. by Kristin M. Carcieri-MacRae
#1 tip for Organizing Your Clothes Closet: Clear the Clutter
When was the last time you took everything out of your clothes closets? If it has been over a year, that is too long. Here are 5 tips to get your clothes closets organized. 1. Take everything out of your clothes closets, EVERYTHING. Make 4 piles. Toss, Donate, Sell, and Keep. Throw out anything with stains or holes or recycle them and use them as rags. Take any clothes that are gently worn and still in good condition to the consignment store or have a yard sale. Donate anything you think the consignment store won’t accept. 2. Put the clothes you are keeping into categories, i.e, suits, dresses, pants, skirts, dress shirts, etc. Organize back into closet by color, style and category. 3. Keep all accessories such as belts, scarves, hats and gloves organized together. 4. Have a system for storing your shoes.
Organizing in RI We organize, you energize!
60
Don’t let your shoes pile up on the bottom of the closet. Have a system. How many times have you been late for an event because you couldn’t find a match to a shoe? 5. Rotate your closet every season. Start at step 1 and follow through. When your closet is organized, you will be able to see everything you own. You will know what you have and what you need to buy. You will save money, have more free time, less stress and more structure just because your closet is organized. Who knew? Have you tried organizing your closet, but you get distracted, lose focus, walk around in circles and you seem to get nothing done? Call Organizing In RI, LLC to help you get organized and set up systems that will not only get you organized, but will keep you organized.
We specialize in organizing businesses, residential and life. Make an investment in yourself and call us today for a free phone consultation.

peal and is one of the hardest materials in nature. Cambria countertops consist of 93% natural quartz stone and require no maintenance. Cambria is only available through exclusive dealers (and cannot be found in Home Centers.) Maintenance-free - Cambria means that it never needs polishing or sealing. Granite needs to be sealed once or twice a year as chemical sealers wear off. Plus, unlike granite, Cambria surfaces are resistant to stains. Bacteria Resistant - Certified as safe for use as a food preparation surface, Cambria is as hygienic as stainless steel. It's nonporous surface makes it impossible for bacteria to penetrate and grow.
Strength - Quartz is one of the hardest minerals found in nature. Cambria is 93% natural quartz, and is stronger than granite. Our 2012 goal is first and foremost to focus on you – our customer! We want to “Be The Change.” We want to revamp and reinstitute the “American Dream.” Our focus is to provide our customers with the “Best” and most reliable product(s) available in the marketplace! We are proud that Cambria counters are 100% made in the United States (at Cambria's LeSueur, Minnesota plant). So, if you're concerned about such things as "Made in the U.S.A.," then Cambria is just the ticket.

Kitchen & Baths by Humphrey’s
As two of the most popular home remodels, kitchen and bathroom improvements can represent a substantial return on investment (ROI) ratio; helping to bring top market value for your home. Bathroom renovations especially prove high performers. On average 120% return on investment for bath renovations and 100% for kitchen improvements according to recent statistics. Both types of renovations increase a home’s chances of a quick sale and represent a major selling feature to potential buyers As the heart and soul of the home, the kitchen is one of the most user rooms of the house; of keen interest to potential buyers. In fact, real es68
NEHomeLife.com | September 2012
tate agents say a clean, well-designed kitchen with modern appliances and quality elements can sell a house quicker than nearly any other aspect of the home. Modern, well-designed bathrooms are another big selling point; where quantity and quality both count. Homes that have two or three bathrooms with quality fixtures sell faster than homes with only one bathroom. Needless to say, a luxurious master bathroom adjoining the master bedroom is even more impressive. While bathrooms and kitchens can represent some of the most costly types of home renovations, they are also more likely to pay for themselves.
Kitchen Remodeling Tips
Consider basic room functions. Make sure remodeling or renovation project will accommodate one or more of the room’s functions. For instance, the kitchen’s primary functions are food preparation, storage, and clean up. Make sure the classic work triangle is incorporated into the kitchen floor plan – with the kitchen sink, refrigerator, and stove arranged in a triangular pattern. This layout saves unnecessary steps, while ensuring ease of movement and convenience. Install a granite counter top – or one made from other natural stone. Stone counter tops installed using quality workmanship improves kitchen appearance and usability. They can also be a huge selling point.
Entrust our experts at Humphrey’s to design, create and install a custom kitchen or bath that best suits your personal needs. Our team of designers using our state-of-the-art design software will allow you to envision your home project before it begins. We use a host of leading manufactures that represent

Fab Flooring
Flooring ain’t Boring Leave it to Ken Mungeon to figure out that real estate and floor covering is a match made in heaven. Ken who owns and operates KAM Realty with offices in Fall River and New Bedford recently came onto an opportunity to make his business a little more diversified with adding a full service floor covering company. Now at his Fall River and New Bedford office you will find FAB Flooring. As Ken says, “ at KAM Realty we are in and out of homes every day providing buyers and sellers with complete real estate services and professional advice. Part of service to our clients is recommending upgrades to their home that can stage their property for a quick sale and increase value along the way. Floor covering including hardwoods, tile, carpet and linoleum can have a significant impact in selling your home and many homebuyers prior to moving into their homes are interested in up70

grading floor coverings as well.” FAB Flooring is a full service floor covering business with free in home measuring and consultation by industry professionals. They carry a complete line of hardwoods, tile, carpeting and kitchen counter tops in granite, quartz and Silestone. The offer complete installation services on all their products by FAB Flooring staff technicians. Ken said, “ I have built KAM Realty on sound principles, integrity and great customer service. The same set of rules will apply to FAB
Flooring and our team there. When it come to selling your home we have added another valuable tool to provide our clients with great choices and sound advice to get the most out of their largest investment, their home.” Research on home buyers in the marketplace today rate new carpet and tile in a home as the third most important feature behind upgraded or new kitchens and baths. For first impressions in showing a property to potential buyers nothing stands out more then new floor covering and counter tops. And when it
comes to new home buyers the number one improvement made prior to moving in is also new floor covering. So it seams that Ken once again has found a way to provide great service for his clients on either side of a real estate transaction. As his slogan says, “ Flooring ain’t Boring” call FAB Flooring for all you floor covering needs. The showroom is located at 1068 Slade street Fall River, MA. But wherever you are in Southern New England they will come right to you as well. K Mungeon 508264-9811 or K Hebert 774-264-0151. September 2012 | NEHomeLife.com

Need Remodeling Inspiration?
Visit RI Kitchen & Bath by NEHL Staff
One visit to RI Kitchen & Bath on Jefferson Boulevard in Warwick and you can’t help but be inspired to start your next remodeling project. Whether you’re ready to embark on a new kitchen or just contemplating ideas for the bathroom of your dreams, you’ll enjoy strolling through the 3,000 sq. ft. Showroom featuring fullsize kitchen and bathroom models on display as well as appliances, hardware, ceramic and stone tile, plumbing, and lighting samples. “It’s like a brainstorming space where your ideas and vision can come to life. Many of our customers do start right here in making their dream a reality,” notes Steve St. Onge, CGR, CAPS. St. Onge is the president and owner of RI Kitchen & Bath (RIKB), a successful residential design and remodeling firm specializing in kitchen, bath and interior renovations. He recalls 88
NEHomeLife.com | September 2012
humbly how his company started 23 years ago in a small storefront location on Manchester Street in West Warwick. “I was fortunate during those early years to enlist the help of my retired parents who had owned a remodeling company for 20 years in Connecticut, for their expertise, consultation and advice,” St. Onge recalls. “My mom is still a huge cheerleader for the business and enjoys coming to the Showroom whenever she can. She knows many customers on a first-name basis.” Over the years since its founding in 1989, the company expanded twice to add office and warehouse space in a shopping center approximately 300 yards from the original storefront. Employees had to shuttle between buildings and communication between design staff and production personnel became more difficult. RIKB was also expanding its geographic reach and needed
a more central location with easier highway access. A vacant factory building located on Jefferson Boulevard was found as the ideal location and, in May of 2008, a Grand Opening Celebration was held for RIKB’s current 10,000 sq. ft. facility which houses the firm’s corporate offices, design department, warehouse, production facility, and Showroom. RIKB enjoys an award-winning reputation as a single-source team of designers, production and installation professionals working together to help customers from initial design through completed installation. The company’s unique “we do it all” service approach is unmatched in the Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts area. Four members of the design staff have earned their Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist designations, one has achieved her Certified Kitchen and Bath Designer designation (and teaches at RISD), and all are encouraged to further their professional development through continuing education, industry involvement and national conference attendance to stay up-to-date on kitchen and bath products, trends and ideas. As part of a national
buying group, RIKB leverages its nationwide purchasing power for the benefit of its customers. In addition to holding kitchen and bath trend seminars, the RIKB Showroom is also a great spot for hosting community fundraisers and other events for the public. The main kitchen display has fully operational Viking appliances and is used for live cooking demonstrations, food tastings, beverage pairings, and private functions. Customers and non-customers alike enjoy attending the RIKB “Visiting Chef Series” events featuring renowned chefs from local restaurants who demonstrate their culinary techniques as they prepare a specialty dish for attendees to sample. The audience is always a mix of previous clients, prospective clients, employees, and vendors. R.I. Kitchen & Bath is a member of the National Association of Home Builders, National Association of the Remodeling Industry, National Kitchen & Bath Association, National Aging in Place Council (founding member of the RI Chapter), the Rhode Island Builders Association, and the Central Rhode Island Chamber of Commerce.
