Homeownership is an important part of the American way of life— and a dream for millions of families.

Now is a great time to buy a home and invest in your family’s future. The housing

market is growing, mortgage rates are near historic lows, and new homes are built to meet the lifestyle needs of today’s buyers.

For many Americans, a new home can be a gateway to greater financial security, and most people agree that owning a home provides a sense of personal achievement and promotes family and community well being.

In fact, 97% of American youth ages 14 to 17 believe they will own a home someday, according to a Better Home and Gardens Real Estate Generation Z survey conducted in 2014.

A majority of renters (91%) also believe that home ownership is a praiseworthy goal, according to a survey conducted by Freddie Mac in 2014.

Low Interest Rates Today’s historically low interest rates are helping home buyers purchase their dream house at reasonable prices. But interest raters are sensitive to market forces and can change quickly. There's no indication that rates will suddenly surge, but even a slight uptick could put monthly mortgage payments beyond the reach of some prospective buyers.

Big Down payments Not Required While lending conditions are tighter today than in recent years, there are options for purchasing a home without a 20% down payment. For example, loans backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are available with down payments as low as 3%. However, these loans require mortgage insurance.

To ensure that the process goes smoothly, buyers should consider pre-qualifying for a mortgage and having financing in place before shopping for a new home. Some home builders also arrange favorable financing for their customers or offer financial incentives.

Low Interest Rates Designed to accommodate todays busy lifestyles, new houses—including condos, townhouses, single family detached houses, and home in 55+ communities—feature open floor plans, flexible spaces, low-maintenance materials and other amenities that make them more appealing than ever before.

With energy costs near the top of consumer concerns, its good to know that new residential construction can be much more energy efficient than a generation ago. Through the use of innovative high performance materials and construction techniques, today’s energyefficient homes are increasingly resource-efficient and environmentally friendly.

H e l e n a B ui l ding Indu s try As s o ciatio n

With so much at stake, how do you make the right decision?

I

f you’re thinking about painting the exterior of your home yourself, your first decision shouldn’t concern the color or sheen of the paint but, rather, who’s going to do the painting.

Deciding whether to hire a contractor or do the work yourself has implications for your social calendar, your peace of mind and your pocketbook.

With so much at stake, how do you make the right decision?

and elbow grease to do the best job. You’ll also need ladders, scrapers, sandpaper, brushes or rollers and safety equipment. Do you have these items? Are you willing to invest in them?

1. Do you have enough time to do the job?

Repainting a home can take a full week or two.

For many people, that translates into a lot of vacation days or weekends. Are you willing to make the sacrifice?

6. Do you enjoy physical work?

From a psychological standpoint, many home owners get enormous satisfaction from completing a home improvement project. Along with the cost savings, this is one of the rewards that go to those who do their own painting.

2. Do you have the patience to do the job correctly?

While painting can be fun and psychologically rewarding, good surface preparation — essential to any successful paint job — can be tedious.

Will you really take time to properly prepare the surface before yielding to the urge to paint?

(Consider renting power-washing equipment to speed surface preparation.)

3. Can you afford to hire a contractor?

By doing the job yourself, you can save a lot of money, however, having your home professionally painted will be faster and eliminates the need for you to buy equipment, prepare the surface, and do the actual painting.

4. Do you have the proper equipment?

The highest quality acrylic latex paint costs more than $20 per gallon, but it takes more than paint

5. Are you in good health and reasonably fit?

Achieving professional-looking painting results is within the skill level of most do-it-yourselfers, but if you are out of shape, you may find the work somewhat taxing.

7. Have you done exterior painting before?

As with most home improvement projects, painting is easier “the second time around,” after you’ve mastered surface preparation and application techniques.

8. Are you afraid of heights?

Look to the highest point of your house. Would you be nervous painting it from a ladder? If so, proceed to your telephone directory and check the listing for “Painting Contractors.”

If you ultimately decide to do your own exterior painting, proceed with confidence. Exterior painting is one of the top do-it-yourself projects (trailing only interior painting). Many home owners go it alone and get great results.

Whatever you decide be sure to use HBIA Members for Business and supplies. •

Costs of Building a

I

f you’re in the market for a new home, you may be wondering about the factors that contribute to the total cost of the home. The National Association of Home Builders recently published a Cost of Construction Survey, which details the various costs of building a typical new single-family home. Many of the results show that costs have remained consistent in recent years.

According to the 2015 survey, the biggest single component of a home’s price is construction costs, which accounts for 62 percent of the cost. The cost of the finished lot is the second largest factor at 18.2 percent.

Survey respondents broke down construction costs into eight major construction stages: • Interior finishes: 30 percent • Framing: 18 percent • Exterior finishes: 15 percent • Major system rough-ins: 13 percent • Foundations: 11.6 percent • Final steps: 6.8 percent • Site work: 5.6 percent • Other costs: 0.5 percent

The survey reaffirms the steady progress of our economy since the Great Recession, as home values have gradually risen. And, in each year since 2009, the size of single-family homes has grown as well. The average home in 2015 had 2,802 square feet of finished space, compared to 2,402 in 2009.

The size of the lot has increased significantly, too, jumping to 20,129 square feet (nearly half an acre) in 2015, from 14,359 square feet just two years ago.

Though building practices and the cost of labor, land and materials can vary widely across the country, these national averages provide an encouraging snapshot of the building industry and our nation’s housing recovery. The upward trend of home buyer confidence and home price appreciation is inspiring more and more consumers to build the home of their dreams.

Enjoy the Great Outdoors with a

Deck or Patio A new deck or patio can be the perfect gathering place, adding a new dimension to your yard and creating space that you didn’t even know you had.

A

well-planned outdoor living space can become a home owner’s backyard getaway, but the wrong deck or patio can end up as unused dead space. Keep the following in mind and you’ll find yourself enjoying the sunshine from your outdoor retreat in no time.

Patio or Deck?

When deciding on whether you’d like your new outdoor haven to be a patio or deck, first do some research. Some areas have building codes or terrains that dictate one or the other. Your local home builders association HBIA can be a good source of information. What kind of budget are you looking at?

Decks can be a more affordable option than patios, but concrete, while more expensive, tends to be the sturdiest material with the lowest maintenance needs. Several factors can determine whether a deck or patio is best for you: • How much weight does your space need to hold? If you are considering a huge hot tub or spa, a patio might support its weight better.

• What about climate? Will the surface become too hot to walk on during summer’s peak?

• Does rain or snow create runoff problems on a flat patio surface?

If you have a rough backyard terrain, a raised deck may end up your best choice instead of expensive excavation for patios. Likewise, if you dislike dirt or have pets, consider a raised deck. Remnants from sand and stone patios easily find their ways into clean houses. A raised deck also may work as

a better option for low-lying yards that tend to become soggy when it rains.

Choosing the Design Once you’ve determined whether a deck or patio is best for your home, the possibilities are endless. For home owners on a budget, we suggest a sand and stone or brick patio. Stone, brick and concrete pavers are available in a range of styles and colors and are durable. Remember that site preparation is important for drainage, grade and proper placement, and can be a lot of work for the DIYer. Weeds also can pose more of a problem with patios. When in doubt, leave it to a professional with the experience, not to mention equipment, you need.

“Flagstone and concrete patios also are popular among home owners,” Taylor said. “Remember to allow for expansion, however, preventing cracking.” Cracking in concrete is inevitable, but it can be minimized with the proper installation.

Materials Matter Most decks are made of wood, ranging from pressure-treated pine and fir to more durable—and pricey— woods such as red cedar, redwoods and tropical hardwoods. No matter what the type, wood decks require maintenance and even then, with less expensive woods, swelling and warping will still occur over time.

To reduce the amount of maintenance required, consider composite and vinyl decking. These materials are less susceptible to swelling and also are more resistant to insects. The cost, however, can be significantly higher, particularly if coordinating railing and balustrade systems. Concrete decks, while much more expensive than wood or composite, are the most durable and require only the occasional pressure wash and periodic re-sealing. And no longer just drab grey, concrete is now available in a nearly limitless variety of styles, colors and patterns.

Location, Location, Location Before beginning your outdoor project, assess your space. Where do you have the best sunlight? Do you want to use your space for dining or grilling? If so, do you have a large enough area for tables and chairs? Is there one area of the yard that is quieter and has more privacy from neighbors? A good home builder, remodeler or landscape architect can help you design a master plan that’s right for your space and your ideas. See Helenabia.com for a list of contractors and suppliers.

Once your patio or deck is built, only your imagination limits the extent of your retreat. Plants, flowers, trellises, decorative screens, garden sculptures, fountains and furnishings can all enhance your backyard haven. •
