REAL ESTATE MATTERS

Real estate expert names top threats to the industry By Ilyce Glink and Samuel J. Tamkin, Tribune Content Agency Wondering what threats await real estate this year (and in the future)?

Scott Muldavin, chair of the Counselors of Real Estate (CRE), ran down his annual list at this year’s National Association of Real Estate Editors (NAREE) annual conference in Denver.

Real Estate Threat No. 1: Political Polarization and Global Uncertainty The U.S. is seeing a rise in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), Muldavin said, and continued separation by income. But political polarization and global uncertainty are directly affecting communities.

Interest rates are going to rise (the Federal Reserve Bank recently raised the federal funds rate again), which, he said, will ultimately make mortgages less affordable.

“Communities are becoming increasingly polarized, which will cause all sorts of changes for metropolitan areas,” he added.

Real Estate Threat No. 2: Technology Boom In 2016, more than $2.6 billion was spent by consumers for online real estate applications, and that amount will continue to rise. Technology will change every aspect of buying, selling and managing every facet of commercial and residential real estate, and Muldavin says it will happen sooner than you can imagine.

“On the residential real estate side, we’re seeing the rise of smart homes with high-tech thermostats, lighting and security systems, as well as faster wireless access and bandwidth being built into new communities and homes.

Homeowners want plug and play,” he observed.

One thing to watch for: Self-driving mass transit systems, which could mean that suburban homeowners will benefit from new modes of transportation that make their properties more accessible.

Real Estate Threat No. 3: Generational Disruptions “We’re at a demographic inflection point,” Muldavin noted. “Millennials are a bigger population bubble than the boomers. People from both population groups are now living

and working together.”

In the residential arena, some of the effects of the generational disruption include having younger renters and buyers with reduced income limits. Millennials (and Generation Z) are marrying later, and moving to the suburbs later.

Older owners are downsizing, selling and moving back to cities.

But boomers want bigger in-town condos, while developers have been building smaller units for the younger demographics. The design and amenities of current properties for sale are often a mismatch when different generations live together.

One big effect of the generational disruption is that seniors in some areas are having trouble selling. They have bigger homes for sale, but no one wants to (or can afford to) buy them.

Real Estate Threat No. 4: Retail Disruption According to Muldavin, between 1970 and today, malls have grown at twice the rate of the U.S. population. “The U.S. has four times the per capita retail space compared with Canada, and 10 times per capita space compared with Germany. We have too much retail. Half of all U.S. households are members of Amazon Prime.

“There’s a behavioral change going on with how consumers relate to real estate,” he added.

“Retail isn’t dying, but millennials like experiences.” That means retail will have to change dramatically.

Muldavin noted that up to 30 percent of malls are expected to close in the next few years, and commercial investor returns

are down as retail bankruptcies are at all-time highs. Big bricksand-mortar department stores are facing significant problems.

“On the flip side, there is a huge repurposing opportunity for developers who are innovative,” he added.

Muldavin also noted that “we’re seeing Amazon-type online retailers opening bricks-andmortar (stores). It’s omnichannel retailing. You sell everywhere to everyone.”

“In the next decade, the demand for walking distance retail will continue to trend up; unique destinations are in high demand, and will be even more so. Retail disruption is a residential value determinant, but retail is resilient.

We’ll see it continue to transition to a more experiential retail environment,” he said.

“One thing to watch out for: The ‘Walk Score’ is more important, and experiential retail has a higher value to residential,” Muldavin noted.

Real Estate Threat No. 5: Infrastructure Investment (or lack thereof) According to Muldavin, the current infrastructure proposal from the federal government is for $200 billion over 10 years. But 80 percent of that is to be provided by state and local communities.

Money for public transportation has been zeroed out of the proposal.

“Mass transit support, which is so important to real estate values and real estate investors, is being zeroed out. Mass transit is disappearing, and it’s a sea change,” Muldavin said, adding that the losers will be any infrastructure project without a private funding source.

5 questions to ask your lender Selecting a mortgage company is one the first steps in buying a home, and it’s an important one. Much of the home buying process hinges on the work performed by the mortgage company. As a buyer, you can essentially choose any lender.

However, there are a few considerations to make when doing so. Here are a few questions that you may want to ask.

communication through their online portal or contact through a centralized call center. The communication methods can influence the level of service that you receive.

SUZANNE PLEWES RE/MAX Alliance

What mortgage programs do you offer?

Most mortgage companies offer a wide range of programs. Some may be those generally available on the market (i.e. Fannie Mae, FHA, VA) while others may be special programs offered only by that mortgage company.

Additionally, there may be city or state programs offered only through approved lenders. It is important to know which programs your lender can provide and which ones they do not.

How does your team communicate with customers?

Communication during the home buying process is critical, especially when issues arise. Be sure to find out if you will have direct access to a loan officer, loan processor and other members of the team. Some lenders may require digital

How much time do you need to process a loan?

Every lender operates a little differently. Some are extremely quick in their procedures while others need a little bit more time. Selecting a lender that can close in 30 days versus one that requires 60+ days is important for you to know ahead of time. It could impact the type of offers that you make or your ability to compete for certain homes that require quick closings.

What are your fees?

You may hear that there are “standard fees” but these truly do vary from one lender to another.

For example, one lender may charge $300 for a underwriting fee whereas another may charge $700. When comparing different lenders, be sure to also compare their fees.

How do you handle loan funding?

Funding refers to when the proceeds of your loan are transferred to the closing attorney.

Funding is often not thought about unless it presents an issue, at which point it may be too late to do anything about it. Typically, a home purchase is not on record until the loan is funded. If you are closing first thing in the morning but your loan is not funded until the

afternoon, then you may not receive keys until the afternoon. This might impact your plans with movers, contractors, etc., so it’s important to know the funding process ahead of time.

The value of local lenders Having someone that you can meet in person and directly communicate with is extremely helpful. The home buying process can be stressful and working with a local lender can often facilitate resolving issues that arise along the way.

Flatirons Home Inspections: Piece of mind, every time

By Darren Thornberry, At Home

YOU BORROW EGGS, SUGAR AND LAWN MOWERS FROM

Y YOUR

NEIGHBORS HO HOW ABOUT A MORTGAGE?

Anyone who has bought or sold a home knows what it’s like to cross your fingers and hold your breath during that necessary home inspection. You don’t want bad news, but you need to know there’s no guesswork on the part of the inspector and that they are going to tell you the plain truth about the condition of your home.

Enter Flatirons Home Inspections, LLC. Owner/Operator Rick Jacquemard started his business exactly four years ago after 14 years in the construction industry. “With my background in construction, I don’t miss things,” he says. “I work with Realtors on every inspection. My job is to accurately explain the condition of the house and what can be done to ensure it’s in shape to sell. It’s an interesting business, and I enjoy getting to assist in the sale of a home.”

It was a winding road to the home inspection business.

Jacquemard studied computer engineering in college and graduated just in time to see the dot-com bubble burst. He couldn’t find a job in the industry. However, he’d previously worked in construction and instead started his “Jacque of all Trades” remodeling/ handyman business, which kept him busy for 12 years. He also owned Parity Solar for two years, which has given him an edge in his knowledge of solar photovoltaic systems as a home inspector.

Jacquemard follows National Society of Home Inspectors guidelines to find problems large or small and flag those that require immediate attention. His website

Rick Jacquemard, Flatirons Home Inspections.

lists everything included in an inspection, but suffice to say the list is long. From site grounds and grading to the attic and everything in between, Flatirons Home Inspections promises to do a deep dive in the details and give you an accurate report. The company also offers radon testing and pest inspections.

According to Jacquemard, the most common problem areas in a house often depend on its age. For example, GFCI electrical outlets were mostly unheard of before the 1960s and now they’re required when near water. Similarly, codes have changed over the years with regard to furnaces.

In a given week, Flatirons Home Inspections will complete four or five inspections. They’re all-day affairs. After the inspection, Rick writes his report and sends it directly to the client. Prices vary depending on the size of the home.

Radon testing incurs an additional charge. “Piece of Mind, Every Time” is the company slogan: No shortcuts, no nonsense. Go online to flatironshi.com to see everything an inspection covers, pricing and to schedule your home inspection.

REALTOR FOR LIFE

To refinance, or not – that is the question The following article is a summary of content from the book, “Realtor for Life,” written by Duane Duggan.

When interest rates drop, you might wonder whether or not it makes any sense to refinance.

Unfortunately, there are many different “rules of thumb” being DUANE directed to the DUGGAN public to answer Realtor and Author the question, RE/MAX of Boulder “When is the right time to refinance?”

One of these “rules of thumb” says that if your current mortgage loan is less than two years old, you should not refinance. Generally, this thought comes from the fact that you have just paid closing costs and when you refinance, there will be another set of closing costs.

Another common “rule” used to determine the feasibility of refinancing is that there should be at least a 2% spread between the old interest rate and the new refinance rate. The reasoning behind this rule is that at least a 2% difference in interest rates is usually needed in order to justify the expenses incurred when refinancing. In reality, refinancing your home mortgage could be done any time there is a significant savings in your monthly mortgage payment (or in your overall debt payments if you are consolidating other loans by refinancing) AND you plan to live in your home long enough to recover the expenses incurred with refinancing.

Let’s say that your current home mortgage is at a rate of 6%. A refinanced mortgage rate of 4% may currently be available to you.

Before proceeding with refinancing your current mortgage you need to answer three questions in order to make a wise decision: 1. What are the total costs involved in refinancing?

2. How long do you foresee owning this home?

3. How many more payments will the loan be extended by?

There will be a variety of costs incurred when refinancing a home mortgage. These include: a title policy to assure the lender that they have an enforceable deed of trust and loan on the property, an appraisal to determine your home’s market value, a loan origination fee, loan discount points, and a few other miscellaneous fees.

Most title companies will offer a reduced title policy premium when the title insurance is re-issued for an owner within two years of the original title policy issue. This offer is possible because there is less exposure to the title company over such a short period of time.

Most homeowners upon purchasing a home find out that any loan discount points paid are deductible as interest by the buyer in the year that they are paid. What may not be generally known is that discount points paid to refinance a home are not fully deductible in the year they are paid. These must be prorated or spread out over the life of the mortgage. For example, if a homeowner paid $3,000 in loan discount points to refinance their home mortgage at a lower rate, they could potentially deduct $100 in interest each year for a 30-year mortgage. This would mean a $28/year tax savings if in the 28% tax bracket or $15/year tax savings if in the 15% tax bracket. The downside is that the homeowner had to pay $3,000 either in cash or by adding this amount to the mortgage. If possible, it is generally recommended that homeowners refinance with a “par value” loan, or in other words, that they refinance at a rate which does not require the payment of any loan discount points. This keeps the out of pocket expenses of refinancing at a minimum even though the interest rate may be slightly higher.

It is necessary to understand two terms in order to determine whether the interest payments on a home mortgage are fully deductible: “acquisition debt” and “home equity debt”. Acquisition

debt is the amount of money borrowed in order to buy, build, or make capital improvements to a principal or second home.

The deductibility limit for acquisition debt is $1,000,000 for the combination of a first and second home. As the principal is paid down on this mortgage, the acquisition debt is reduced. Home equity debt has a deductibility limit of $100,000 above the current acquisition costs for both the first and second homes. Money pulled out of a home’s equity can be used for any purpose including home improvements, education, and medical expenses, business expenses, or restructuring and paying off other debts. When a homeowner refinances a mortgage, the acquisition debt does not increase. For example, if a person originally borrowed $175,000 to purchase their home and the current unpaid balance is now $150,000, the acquisition debt is now $150,000. By refinancing only the $150,000 balance the interest payments will still be deductible.

Assuming the market value of the home will allow it, the homeowner could borrow up to $250,000 and still have all of the interest payments be deductible. $150,000 of the new loan would still be considered acquisition debt and the additional $100,000 would be considered home equity debt. An important thing for homeowners to be aware of is that all of the interest payments on a principal or second home mortgage may not be tax deductible even though a mortgage company may be willing to make a certain loan amount. The limit restrictions for “acquisition” and “home equity” debt must be taken into consideration and your tax advisor should be consulted for current tax rules.

Due to the competitive nature of the home mortgage business, some lenders will offer “Low” or “No Closing Costs” loans. These types of loans will typically have a slightly higher interest rate. It is

important to find out if the lender is actually not charging any closing costs or if these costs are being added to the refinanced mortgage amount. Adding closing costs to the mortgage can hide potentially high loan fees that increase the overall costs of the mortgage, even though the out of pocket expenses are kept low.

When refinancing, the payment can drop for reasons other than interest rate. One is that if the old loan was amortized, the principal is being paid down a bit each month.

When the refinance loan is done, the balance will be lower than the original, unless cash is pulled out or if the original loan was interest only. Second, by refinancing, the loan repayment process starts over at 30 years to go. Therefore, much of the monthly savings is tacked on to the end of the loan. Some people will argue the “time value of money”. In other words, those dollars added on the end are worth much less than dollars today, hence the argument, “don’t pay your mortgage off early”.

In summary: First, consider refinancing whenever it creates a significant monthly savings and you can recover the expenses of refinancing during the time you own the home. Second, consider a “par value” loan to keep closing costs at a minimum and be aware that loan points paid when refinancing are not fully deductible as interest in the first year. Finally, consult your mortgage loan professional and tax advisor to discuss your specific details.

HOME DECOR

The 7 keys to making your foyer five star-worthy

By Gabrielle Savoie Domaine (TNS)

more put together with a pair of baskets or stools underneath it, and a mirror or artwork above it.

The goal isn’t to over-accessorize, but rather to add items that are both purposeful and beautiful.

Your foyer is the first and last thing you see when walking through your front door, so it should leave you feeling nothing short of inspired, organized and on top of your game. After all, there’s nothing worse than coming home after a long day to an uninspiring space filled with unopened mail, piles of shoes and other miscellaneous junk waiting to be stored away. While your life might be running a million miles an hour, your foyer should be a space to pause, reflect and get re-energized.

In other words: It should serve as a portal for your overall wellbeing, whether you’re about to tackle a busy day or getting ready to unwind at night. So how do you make such a traditionally small space feel invigorating and perfectly organized? With clever organization, pieces that serve a purpose and impactful accents, you’ll be on your way to the ultimate entryway. Ready to come home to your dream space? These

foyer decor ideas are here to help.

Start with seating Think function first: Of course you want your foyer to be bold and beautiful, but you also want it to serve its purpose. Start with an entryway bench for people to sit on, coupled with a set of hooks for anything from hats to handbags.

Then you can start building to create the space you’ll love.

Layer up The key to a truly beautiful entryway: layering. For instance, a console table will always look

Work from the ground up If there’s one item that can instantly transform the look of your foyer, it’s an antique rug.

Worn-out Turkish rugs have a certain texture and dimension that’s often hard to find in entryways, particularly ones that have blank walls and not too much architectural impact.

Make a statement The foyer is not the place to be subtle or neutral. Create a statement by adding a bold pop of color or a striking geometrical pattern. Or use the power of repetition to create your statement.

Make art your focus Take advantage of the wall facing you when you walk in by hanging your favorite piece of art. This is the first thing people will see when they walk into your home,

so it should be personable and purposeful. Starting with artwork is also an easy way to build a coherent color scheme for the space.

Add an accent chair Benches and stools are usually the preferred foyer seating, but an accent chair can also be exactly what’s missing in your foyer, especially if you have an awkward corner. Use it to put down your bag when you get home or to sit down and lace your shoes up in the morning.

Light it up Don’t just resort to a boring flush-mount light fixture – pick a pendant that will make a statement and cast a flattering light on your space (and don’t forget to put it on a dimmer).

If you can only have one light source in the space, better make it a good one.

How to prepare for an estate sale staging companies have stagers on staff who are trained to handle the aspects relating to selling the home. Their services typically include the sale of personal items including clothing and furniture, delivering personal items to charities and disposing items that may no longer be of use.

smooth and in many cases more profitable.

When a loved one passes on, there are a number of financial aspects that need to be handled, including in many instances the sale of one’s home. For most Americans, their home is their single biggest asset, and for those loved ones and heirs left behind, ensuring the proper preparation and sale of the home may be top of mind.

While some may opt to sell a home that is part of an estate as is, for others the desire is to maximize the return. From home staging to repairs, a thoughtful plan can help make the sale both

Removal of personal items including furniture The idea of removing personal items from documents to clothing and furniture may seem overwhelming.

The first step should be to try to locate all critical documents, including those related to the mortgage and taxes on the home.

Next, look to donate clothing to a local charity. As far as furniture and home decor items, these may become quite useful if you decide to stage the home for selling purposes. Professional

ASK THE EXPERT

Home staging Home staging is the process of preparing a property for sale.

This can include everything from decluttering to repairs, furniture rearranging and bringing in rental items and accessories.

A professional real estate stager will help ensure that a property shows in its best possible light, highlighting the positives and downplaying the negatives. In many instances, a real estate stager can oversee the entire sale process for you.

Roof inspections

BOULDER – Replacing a roof can be quite an investment.

Most lenders and insurance companies require that RICK the roof has JACQUEMARD been included Flatirons Home in a home Inspections inspection.

These companies want to protect their investments, but you as the homeowner (or buyer) should want to be feel secure as well. You don’t want to be stuck with a bill that you weren’t expecting, and you also don’t want to sell a home to June 23-24, 2017

Updates and improvements In many cases, the home may not have been updated for years.

From older fixtures to appliances, the home may need improvements and updates.

Fresh new bathrooms and kitchens are two of the most desired features for potential buyers. With this in mind, there is no need to do a gut renovation.

Instead, consider investing in cost-effective improvements that will help increase the value without breaking the bank. In bathrooms, consider reglazing old tiles, replacing toilets, updating sinks and changing fixtures such as showerheads and faucets.

These improvements will go a long way to create a fresher, more modern look at an affordable price.

For kitchens, if replacing appliances is too costly, consider improvements such as a new tile floor or inexpensive sheet vinyl. Cabinet refacing or even something as simple as replacing cabinet handles can go a long way. Another option may be to place a countertop.

Painting Painting remains one of the most affordable improvements for a home. If you desire to spend little to no money, investing in a fresh coat of paint will be worth your investment. The reality is potential buyers see even small tasks such as painting as worry, money and work. The best color is to go with a basic white. Neutral colors appeal most to potential buyers as opposed to colors that are more personalized.

a family and put them in the same spot.

A roof inspection report is based on visible evidence, which can often be gathered in part without walking on the roof. The report should include how much of the roof was inspected and where it was inspected from. Items that your inspector should list in the report include, but are not limited to; cracked caulk or rust spots on flashing, shingles that are buckling, curling, or blistering; masses of moss and lichen (which could signal the roof is decaying underneath), missing or broken shingles or tiles, cracked and worn rubber boots around vent pipes, missing or damaged chimney cap,

granules that are missing from asphalt shingles.

An inspection of the underside of the roof from the attic can reveal possible leaks or weak spots. Rafters or trussed should be checked for damage. Other indicators of possible or potential roof problems are: dark areas on ceilings, damp spots alongside fireplaces, water stains on pipes venting the furnace or water heater, peeling paint on the underside of roof overhangs.

In most states, a properly installed, ventilated and maintained roof can last 20 years or more.

A properly maintained gutter and downspout system is also an important part of a roof. Have

your roof inspected by a home inspector or roofing professional after any major weather event such as large hail storm, wind storm or excessive amount of snow.

Contemporary custom homes as unique as you are, now being built by Masterwork Home Company Open house this weekend invites you to imagine yourself in a Masterwork home.

By L.L. Charles, At Home

T

raditional home designs are great but they are, well, very traditional. And while the world has changed a lot since the 1990s, new home designs in Boulder County may seem to be stuck in time. The exception to this rule is Masterwork Home Company who is elevating elegant, contemporary home design to an art form. These

AT HOME COLORADO

inspired new designs are a complete departure from the ordinary, but completely in the tradition of the highly custom, high performance homes that Masterwork is known for. The company has over 20 years of history building homes for Boulder County’s discerning buyers. Masterwork Home Company is hosting an open house at 2002 Poppy Field Court in Longmont this weekend to show off its newest custom ranch home.

“Many customers are asking for a fresh take on traditional home styles,” says company owner, David Boschert.

“They are looking for simpler design, cleaner lines and home automation. We are on the cutting edge of this contemporary look. And because we create the home to your exact specifications, you are involved in the whole selection process, from floor plan to finishes to external surfaces.

We think choosing a true custom home is fun!”

Many of our clients are choosing to create homes with slightly less square footage, but a strong focus on high quality finishes. Exterior surfaces favor stone, stucco, wood… even steel siding. The result is something with great appeal to the eye, but

requires little maintenance. It’s the intersection where luxury meets convenience.

The finest custom homes have to do more than just look great, though. Boschert says that Masterwork Home Company is actively developing homes that harness solar and geothermal power. “Nearly 80 percent of our buyers are choosing some solar component in their new home, and several are taking advantage of the geothermal options we have at Summerlin. Our buyers feel good about producing some of their own energy and reducing their carbon footprint. It’s all part of the super modern, energy efficient home.”

Every Masterwork custom home is carefully and professionally designed by a renowned architect using a state-of-the art 3D design system allowing Masterwork clients to virtually live in their new home even before construction begins, eliminating most of the guesswork out of the design process.

With Masterwork Home Company, clients have flexibility to design each and every detail to craft a home that exactly fits their sense of style, taste and budget. (Left Photo: Timothy Seibert, Right Photo: Masterwork Home Company) DAILY CAMERA / TIMES-CALL

The Conservatory at Somerset Meadows Bosch Real Estate Group and Masterwork Home Company have just announced the opening of their newest custom home community, The Conservatory at Somerset Meadows. Residents at The Conservatory enjoy expansive lots backing to open space and extraordinary views.

The location offers the convenience of being just minutes from the best Longmont and Boulder have to offer. “Our clients rave about our location.

Ten minutes in any direction and they are where they want to be. Many have moved to our communities from Boulder to escape the intense traffic and the often unattainable home prices,” David Boschert says. “Better quality of home, better quality of life, all at a lower cost of living than Boulder makes sense to them.”

“These are some of the very best lots that we have been able to offer in the last twenty-five years. The mountain and pastoral views are great and the sense of privacy from the outdoor living areas is fantastic,” says Brian Terry, Bosch Real Estate marketing director. Custom

LAWN AND GARDEN

Heat arrives early BOULDER COUNTY – This summer is shaping up to be known as the Slide Into Insanity season.

After starting off with freezing snow in May, CAROL in a handful of O’MEARA weeks we’ve Colorado State tipped the University Extension other way into broiling heat. To say this makes me grumpy is an understatement: my spouse was asking if I’d like a little cheese with my whine.

But the summer is heating up, and yards, vegetables, and trees are paying the price. The cabbage is showing scorch, lettuce is drooping, container plants demand water twice daily, and flowers are fading rapidly.

This kind of summer heat takes its toll on many plants, especially once the soil begins to dry. Trees with lush canopies from all the May moisture are now in water stress, their dense foliage too much to support because the soil doesn’t have as much moisture for all the leaves.

To deal with this, trees will thin canopies by dropping leaves they can’t support under hot, dry conditions. This is normal and particularly common in ash and cottonwood. Like most slimming regimens this doesn’t harm the tree, it simply helps it live within its means.

Shade cloth over vegetables prone to sunscald is a great way

to prevent that problem. Peppers, tomatoes, lettuce, and any other crop, such as the cabbage, will benefit from a bit of shade. In studies conducted at Colorado State University’s Arkansas Valley Research Center in Rocky Ford, a 30-percent shade barrier is ideal for protecting these plants.

Shade cloth is a loosely woven material that can be placed over crops in a tent. It allows plenty of sun to filter through but takes the edge off its harsh rays. You can cut and sew it to size to fit whatever support you choose; I use a PVC pipe frame but others have hoops.

Find shade cloth at the local garden centers, but because not all retailers carry it, call ahead to see if they have it.

One of the most obvious

areas suffering from heat is our lawns. Brown spots are blooming everywhere, and sprinkler sections at local hardware stores are sizzling with action.

Most brown areas are due to poor watering of the lawn. Check the coverage of water on your lawn by conducting a catchcan test to check the amount of irrigation you’re putting down.

Gather six to eight cans of the same size and randomly place them around the area you’re having problems in, making sure to place some in the green and in the brown areas. Run your irrigation like normal. Measure the amount you’ve put down to see how much the lawn is getting each time. In general, bluegrass needs two inches of water per

week, spread out over two to three watering.

Don’t forget to adjust the run times on automatic sprinkler systems to deliver more water to lawns, flowers, vegetables and trees. Perennials and annuals that put on good growth since spring need to have water increased to accommodate their larger size.

Trees planted years ago with drip irrigation should have the lines and emitters checked to make certain they’re delivering enough water for older trees.

Most herbaceous plants will look droopy in mid afternoon – much like gardeners do – but those with enough water will spring back once evening arrives.

Plants that don’t rebound in the evening should be given a drink, and if this doesn’t help, check their stems for signs of disease.

With any change in irrigation, be alert to signs of trouble.

Lawns don’t need water every day, and if you are running your sprinklers that often you may need professional help.

ASK THE CONTRACTOR

Freestanding baths need special tub fillers

By Ed Del Grande Tribune News Service (TNS) Q: Dear Ed: I’ve learned a lot about plumbing fixtures from your column and really like the concept of having a freestanding bathtub in my new bathroom. But, since freestanding tubs just sit exposed on the floor with no walls or flat tub rim area for water fixtures, what kind of tub filler valve is used? – Larry, New Jersey A: Freestanding baths are becoming very popular.

Basically, it’s a self-supporting 14

AT HOME COLORADO

soaking tub that sits on the floor and requires no wall enclosures or supports. Some homeowners install a freestanding bath in the center of the bathroom, making it the design showpiece for the bathroom.

Naturally, with a special bathtub, you’ll need a special bath tub filler valve. The kind of tub filler used for most freestanding baths is called a floor-mount bath filler. It’s a tower-type setup with a special water spout that’s tall enough to clear the tub rim.

Floor-mount bath fillers come

in many configurations and some even have hand shower options as well. Just keep in mind this type of bathtub setup is very high end, so installing a freestanding bath can be very far from free.

How to harvest agave pups

By Maureen Gilmer Tribune News Service (TNS) Agaves are the succulents that keep on giving. It’s all about their curious reproductive behavior that makes them the easiest of all big succulents to transplant.

You can obtain them free if you know how to exploit their growth habits to bring clones home to your own garden.

With many species native to the colder mountain West, and even more from further south with surprising heat and drought resistance, older plants can be found all over. They will become the genesis of your agave colonies if you know how to properly remove their “pups.”

Agaves reproduce in two ways, first by flowering at the end of life in one grand effort to produce seed and diversify the population.

Unfortunately they don’t often encounter the optimal moisture for seed germination in the wild, so to compensate they have another vegetative method of cloning themselves.

As the original agave ages she

will send out pups or offsets around herself. These are produced by umbilical roots or rhizomes that travel outward from under the mother to sprout into a whole new plant. The sprout can emerge just inches from the mother or many feet away depending on conditions and the species.

Over time each sprout grows from nutrients and moisture delivered through mom’s “umbilical” root. As the sprout grows older, water demands exceed this source, so baby has incentive to produce its own feeder roots. These allow the pup to augment umbilical support and later stand on its own roots after the mother blooms and dies. It’s his job and that of his siblings to replace her after death to carry on the species.

Free plants are obtained by removing pups and transplanting them around your garden. The mother plant may be existing there already or it could be a friend’s or from abandoned properties where less agave loving folks discard these resilient

plants. Do not underestimate how long they can survive out of the ground, making discards far more valuable than you think.

As older agaves mature, their pup populations may increase too as flowering approaches. This is when it’s ideal to transplant so new pups can quickly take their place. These replacements can create even more new agaves

down the road. The clean up and thinning of old overgrown agave colonies involves digging and moving the most suitable pups so light brings new growth and better water penetration.

The challenge is to assess the age of the pup before attempting to dig it out. Water well before digging to loosen soil for less root breakage. Strive to identify

those pups that have their own roots forming, which are usually the larger older ones ready to be severed from mom and moved.

Those you encounter that have no roots should be left hooked up to mom until they’re farther along next year. Without these feeder roots, transplanting the prematurely causes so much moisture loss they fail to thrive

the first year.

Pups with roots can and should be left out of the ground a few days before replanting. First snip off any damage to the roots so this can heal cleanly in open air. Set them in the shade so all transplanting wounds callus off before being exposed to soil and water.

Agaves are actively growing in the heat of summer, so this is a good time to harvest pups to create new plants. In older neighborhoods there are often hoards of old agaves pupping all over the place. Those mature plants that are sending up the bloom spike now will be gone next year, with only a bevy of pups to remain behind. Look to these end-of-life pups readyrooted to survive mom’s demise as the best candidates. In this sense, every locally harvested agave pup is a neighborhood kid already adapted to the soil and weather and rainfall by a neighborhood stay-at-home mom.
