ARE YOU PREPAIRED FOR STORM SEASON?

Storm season has arrived in New York, is your home ready to withstand this year’s storms? There are a lot of precautions homeowners can take to make sure their house is ready to combat the storms that come our way. The most important aspect of your house that you need to check is your roof. Make sure that all shingles and components on your roof are not compromised. This means checking the shingles to see if any are loose or if any are blown off. If you do see that your roof needs work you must get this fixed as soon as possible. The strong rains and winds from storms will cause leaking in your roof which will lead to the structure of your home to rot and cause leaks that may damage the structure of your house. The next aspect of your home you should check is your gutters. Make sure they are cleaned, and water is able to fill up and be diverted away from your house. Make sure that the downspouts to your gutters are pointed away from the foundation of your home and are clear for water to flow through easily. If gutters are not able to keep a constant flow of water away from your home the facia that the gutters are attached to will rot. This may cause your gutters to fall off your home, leaving your house vulnerable to leaks and cracks. Finally, make sure that all your windows and doors can lock & are airtight. Water should not be able to infiltrate through these openings. Make sure the soil around your window wells is loose and able to absorb water so no flooding can occur. These are just a few ways homeowners can prepare for storm season. If you need to upgrade or replace any part of your homes exterior call the experts at UNIFIED. - UNIFIED HOME REMODELING

COPIAGUE

The Best Advice For Home Buyers Today

By JoAnn Cilla

COPIAGUE

Last month I met with several first-time home buyers who were frustrated with the state of the residential home market on Long Island. A few of them tried, and failed, to buy a home; others simply didn’t know where to start. The common thread with all the buyers was unpreparedness; none of them were able to make an immediate move if they found the right house. I gave them some advice which prompted my August article: 12 tips for home buyers today.

1) Determine your budget: Before you start searching for a home, establish a budget that considers your income, expenses, and savings. This will help you understand how much you can afford to spend on a property.

2) Get pre-approved for a mortgage: Obtaining a mortgage pre-approval from a lender will give you a clear idea of how much you can borrow. This will make your home search more focused and help you negotiate with sellers.

3) Research the market: Look at recent sales data, property prices, and trends to understand the market conditions and make informed decisions.

4) Make a list of priorities: Create a list of features and amenities that are essential for your new home. This will help you

inspector to assess its condition. This will help you uncover any potential issues or repairs needed before finalizing the purchase.

CILLA

narrow down your search and focus on properties that meet your needs.

5) Work with a reputable real estate agent: Find a reliable and experienced real estate agent who can guide you through the home buying process. They will have access to the latest listings, negotiate on your behalf, and provide valuable advice.

6) Visit multiple properties: Don’t rush into buying the first property you see. Visit multiple homes to get a better sense of what’s available in your price range. Take notes and compare each property against your list of priorities.

7) Consider the location: Look for factors like proximity to schools, shopping centers, transportation, and other amenities that are important to you.

8) Get a professional inspection: Hire a professional home

9) Review the paperwork carefully: Before signing any documents, review all contracts and paperwork associated with the purchase. It is best to seek legal advice to ensure you understand the terms and conditions.

10) Don’t overlook additional costs: Be prepared for closing costs, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and maintenance expenses to avoid any surprises.

11) Trust your instincts: While it’s important to consider the practical aspects of buying a home, also trust your instincts and emotions. If a property feels right and meets most of your requirements, it may be the right choice for you.

12) Take your time: Buying a home is a major decision. Carefully consider each step of the process and make informed choices that align with your long-term goals. Remember, these tips are general guidelines, and it’s always recommended to consult with professionals, such as real estate agents and financial advisors, for personalized advice based on your specific situation. Happy house hunting!
