Nostalgia is hot for fall centerpieces

Instead of spotlighting a few trendy colors in fall florals, accents and fabrics, designers are wrapping their arms around the same time-honored visual symphony outside your window: shades of browns, greens, reds, oranges and yellows.

(Handout/TNS)

By Mary Carol Garrity, Tribune News Service (TNS) There is something so nostalgic about fall for me. Maybe it comes from growing up in a small, Midwestern river town, where the trees turned spectacular shades of scarlet, amber and orange. Where apple orchards were bursting with juicy fruit ready for a snack or pie. Or maybe it was the excitement of football game days in our small college town. Fall just feels like home, familiar and friendly.

So I’m not surprised that the big, new look in fall decor this year is, actually, an old, wonderful look we’ve all loved for decades. Instead of spotlighting a few trendy colors in fall florals, accents and fabrics,

designers are wrapping their arms around the same time-honored visual symphony outside your window: shades of browns, greens, reds, oranges and yellows.

To help you bring the beauty of fall into your home, I wanted to show you some of the centerpieces our seasonal design team has created.

One lovely fall table features one of my favorite tricks: Place a black urn at your table’s center and fill it with foliage and gourds. We finished the table with one of my loves: Plaid throw blankets. Small blankets, shawls or even a square of fall fabric turned on an angle at your table’s center make perfect little tablecloths, adding tons of texture and pattern.

Being a dish-a-holic, I have never

The big, new look in fall decor this year is, actually, an old, wonderful look.

(Handout/TNS) met a set of dishes I didn’t swoon over. But some patterns are even more crush-worthy for me. Spode transferware + fall tables = true love forever. We like to mix transferware with green majolica plates for a little extra spice.

Our centerpiece for another gorgeous fall table was really easy to create. We topped a pedestal with a fall wreath, then inserted a trio of hurricanes. Done in a flash!

My hometown of Atchison has been called the most haunted town in Kansas, so maybe I come by my love for Halloween naturally. I’m an empty nester and proud to tell you, you don’t have to have any kids in your home to get in the spirit of this fun holiday. Do it up big, or just add

a jot or two of Halloween to your fall displays.

This year, I’m crazy about vintageinspired holiday folk art by Bethany Lowe. Like me, Bethany is from a small Midwestern town and has lots of fun memories of Halloween, which she brings to life in her fanciful creations.

We like to create displays that last all season, from early fall through the holidays. As soon as Thanksgiving is through, remove Tom Turkey and the fall foliage, then sub in something for the holidays, like a tree ornament or reindeer.

Lawn and Garden

Tips to keep your rose by any name healthy and lush

By Cynthia Billhartz Gregorian, The Kansas City Star (TNS) Pretty much anyone can grow a Knock Out rose. I’m a testament to that. Gardening is not my forte, yet I’ve managed to grow one in a pot in my backyard. It’s lush and blooming for the second time this year.

I’m wary, though, of trying my hand at more traditional roses, like the Old Garden and Modern Garden varieties.

Every Thursday morning, an army of volunteers from the Kansas City Rose Society — with pruners in hand — descends on the Laura Conyers Smith Municipal Rose Garden in Loose Park to weed, prune, deadhead and train.

That’s what it takes to maintain the 3,000 shrubs comprising more than 140 varieties of roses in a rainbow of colors. Pruning and removing spent blooms are key to maintaining the shape and health of roses, making them more laborintensive than a lot of other plants.

But don’t let that scare you, says John Riley, garden committee chairman of the Kansas City Rose Society and a board member of the Johnson County Rose Society. Labor intensiveness is different from difficulty, and even Old Garden roses,

the ultra-fragrant varieties that bloom only once a year, aren’t any more difficult to grow than today’s fool-proof hybrids like the Knock Out varieties that bloom all summer long.

Wild, Old Garden and Modern Garden are the three categories of roses. Each category has several classifications, and each classification has hundreds, sometimes thousands, of varieties. So let’s say you’ve recently moved into a home and find an Old Garden rose in your yard. There’s no need to panic. With a little tender loving care, you can keep it vibrant and even rehabilitate a raggedy looking one.

But it does help to know what kind you have so you can adjust your expectations and pruning techniques.

According to Riley, Old Garden roses have been around for hundreds of years. Typically, they’re woody shrubs with pink, white and red double-flowered blooms that grow only on established stems.

Many Modern Roses were created by grafting blooms from one type of rose onto the rootstock of another Old Garden rose plant.

“The demarcation for Modern Garden roses is 1867, when the first hybrid tea rose was created. It was

called LaFrance,” Riley says. “There are some roses that are native to North America, but there are no native roses south of the equator. All native roses are from north of the hemisphere.”

Roses are usually classified by their flowering and growth traits.

They come in different shapes and heights and with widely varying numbers and sizes of blooms. Their foliage can also vary widely in shape and density.

“They all like a lot of organic, aerated, loamy soil and plenty of sun, at least six hours,” Riley says.

“If you move into an old house it could be trees have grown and now the roses are in the shade. You can move the roses.”

When Riley moves roses he digs the hole and amends the soil in it during the fall before the ground freezes. He moves them in February, when the rose plant is dormant.

Riley has about 40 varieties of roses in his own garden. Don’t ask him to name his favorite.

“That’s a hard one,” he says.

“It’s like asking your favorite kid, you know? I have fresh roses on my breakfast table all summer, so it’s usually that one. Right now it’s Touch of Class and Don Juan.”

Whatever you have in your gar-

den, Riley offers the following tips for maintaining healthy and beautiful roses: — Do a soil test to learn what nutrients are missing.

— Prune out the old, dead, crossed and weak canes. “If they’re dead, damaged or diseased it affects the health of the plant,” he says.

“Crossed canes rub on each other and can create a wound.”

— Deadhead reblooming rose shrubs so the plant’s energy will go toward creating new blooms.

— Don’t deadhead once-bloomers.

“Just let them go to rose hips — seed pods — which adds late summer color interest,” Riley says.

— Water deeply once a week during hot, dry summer months. “I’ll put five gallons per plant a week once it’s hot,” Riley says.

— Use a rose fertilizer once a month until August for good growth, though any fertilizer will work. “A 10-10-10 will work. After August you want to stop fertilizing so they go dormant,” Riley says.

John Riley is also a consulting rosarian with the American Rose Society. You can get your rose questions answered by calling him at 913-341-2853.

Don’t Miss Peak Real Estate Season As summer is winding down, the end is also near for the peak selling and buying season in real estate.

The holiday season is

By Suzanne Plewes right around CRS, ABR, CDPE, GRI the corner, a time when Broker Associate at people are RE/MAX Alliance pre-occupied with planning holiday events and less focused on real estate. If you still have your home on the market, here are a few ways to get your home sold before the market slows down.

Evaluate Buyer Feedback You’ve probably had some showAugust 27-28, 2016

ings since placing your home on the market. It’s easy to get offended by negative feedback, but it’s important for you to be open to receiving any and all feedback. Understanding what buyers do not like about your home can help you improve it. Did your home not show well because of furniture placement or décor? Are there certain things that concern buyers? If the feedback you are receiving includes items that you can address, then you should certainly do so.

Review Market Exposure If you’re not getting many showing requests to begin with, then it’s time to look at the bigger picture. Why are buyers not interested in your home? Is the price too high compared to other properties? Are the pictures and property description appealing in online listings of your home? Do you make it Reporter-Herald

easy for buyers to schedule showings?

All of these things can affect whether or not potential buyers will want to see your home.

Review Sold Listings There have likely been homes that were listed at the same time as yours and that are currently under agreement or sold. Take a look at how those homes compare to yours.

Review prices, amenities, photos, and other factors that may make them more desirable. This can help you understand why your home might not be selling.

Prepare a Marketing Strategy Knowing how many days are left to market and sell your home before the holidays approach, come up with a plan to get your home sold. This may include adjusting the list price, staging – AtHomeColorado.com

If you are not already working with a local, experienced Realtor, then this should be something that you seriously consider. Realtors understand the market, homebuyer needs, and how to properly market your home. They can advise you on all of the items above and prepare a marketing plan that works for your specific property.

EQUITY COLORADO-FRONT RANGE

By Judy Finman, At Home

W

ith its many innovations and unique strategies, real estate firm Equity Colorado-Front Range continues to attract increasing numbers of customers and agents. Thanks to Equity’s revolutionary fee structures, where the agents take home the bulk of their earnings, both clients and the agents who serve them benefit as never before.

Managing Broker Nancy Umbreit says, “We had a fabulous year this year with sales up 35 percent.

My Niwot office is 72 agents strong and growing.

Agents benefit from the enthusiasm of the office and the fact that their opinion matters. Those feelings roll out to our customers in happy, patient and creative agents.”

The company has grown to more than 440 agents in Colorado. Besides Umbreit’s Northern Front Range office in Niwot, branches are located in Denver, Colorado Springs and Summit County.

Praise from a customer Mindy Faulkner moved into her newly purchased home in Firestone in March. Her agent was Josh Roberson of Equity Colorado-Front Range.

She had learned about him and about Equity through friends. “Everyone had a great opinion of them,” she says.

AT HOME

Previously, in buying a house, she had a bad experience with a broker. “Josh was the total opposite of my last experience. He had our best interests at heart and went above and beyond what we expected. He was so flexible. If we wanted to look at a property again, even out of the way, he would say, ‘No problem, we’ll make it work.’ He was always available to answer our questions.

“Every person I know who used Equity says great things about them. They are really just about family, and what’s best for the clients.”

Equity offers unique benefits “Realtors with an Equity office keep a higher amount of commission from each sale, which gives them more resources to spend promoting all their listings as well as increased personal income,” explains Umbreit. “The average real-estate agent pays a big chunk of their commission to their home company, whether or not they use the office, administrative support and educational services.”

Equity agents pay $499 with a sale, as opposed to the 30-50 percent of their commission that many pay a larger firm. Additionally, the agents only pay $52 per month in desk fees that cover technological services, free E & O insurance (which is like malpractice insurance), as well as a Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

fulltime manager who works almost 24/7 answering their questions.

Another favorite feature is the company’s profit-share policy: anyone who recruits a new agent is rewarded $100 every time that new agent closes a deal. Equity nationwide paid out over $59,000 in July alone in Profit Share.

Umbreit offers her agents the education they need to succeed – “the skills a good agent has to have. I especially try to help them enhance their listening expertise – the most strategic skill in any agent’s tool kit. The low fees motivate them to come over to Equity, but they stay for the support they get.”

Part-time real-estate sales “If you have toyed with the idea of becoming a real estate agent, you can start part-time while still doing other work,” Umbreit says. Several Equity agents are doing just that, including Nick Bukowski, who has been a firefighter for 11 years, currently with the Loveland Fire Rescue. Nick earned his real estate license in April of 2015 and became a Realtor a month later.

“I have always been fascinated with the incredible architecture people can create and build,” he says. “I began investing in real estate once I graduated college and fell in love. I enjoy helping people, whether that is finding a dream home for a couple who have saved their whole lives, a young person buying their first home, or an investor. To see a smile on my client’s face at closing is very rewarding. I enjoy the challenges I am presented with on a daily basis and I love August 27-28, 2016

I think that customers feed off of the mood, confidence, and resources of their agent, and because Equity is a great environment to work in, agents are happy working there.”

– Brent Sommervold, Agent to build lasting relationships with clients and other agents.

“I enjoy being part of a team in which I can use my communication skills, knowledge, and experience to accomplish the goal. In the firehouse, we have to react quickly and with a high level of skill in order to serve and protect our customers. As a real estate agent, I rely on my interpersonal abilities as well as my team of lenders, inspectors, appraisers, other agents, and my managing broker in order to completely satisfy my clients and get the job done.

Integrity, trust, and hard work cannot be overlooked in either career. People are relying on me to make decisions and take actions that will change or even save their life, while the others are relying on me to help them in making the largest financial decision of their life.”

The support and education Nick receives from Equity helps him succeed. “Equity offers a variety of classes for the agents to increase their knowledge base and provides us with market updates and trends. Equity is always there to support us with answers to our questions, offer advice, and constantly keeps us up to date with education.”

“Equity is filled with so many great agents who truly care about their clients as well as the reputation we build for the company. Veteran agents offer help and advice on a regular basis and Nancy is absolutely incredible. Nancy is truly the person who creates such a positive atmosphere at any company function. She has so much experience and knowledge to pass on to each of us. She truly cares about you, your goals, and the Equity brand. I could not imagine working for a better managing broker and someone I can call a friend.”

REAL ESTATE

Emotional clutter can be biggest obstacle to home sale

By Debra D. Bass, St. Louis Post-Dispatch (TNS) It’s not the cracked tile in the kitchen or yesteryear’s fixtures in the bathroom. Realtors say that the biggest obstacle to a sale is often the seller.

In short, sellers have to get out of the way, literally and figuratively.

That’s no easy task, because people are often still living in a home that’s now on the market.

There’s an emotional attachment that needs to be unraveled even when people think they are thoroughly prepared to sell.

Realtor Ted Wight said it’s a sensitive issue. “Sometimes people have really strong attachments to a home because so many wonderful things happened in the house. Now you’re selling and changing, and it feels like a loss. I sold my house years ago, and my kids still drive by the old house just to see it. I drive by to see how the hedges and trees I planted are doing and just to see it sometimes.” He said that it’s a common nostalgia.

So what does it mean for sellers to get out of the way?

DON’T JUST DECLUTTER. DEPERSONALIZE. Lynne Hart Herrera of Keller Williams Realty said, “The way a buyer looks at a home is very different than the way a visitor looks at your home. Think about a hotel. It looks really simple, clean, and there’s no personal or religious items. Some people like taxidermy, but if a buyer walks into a home they might only see dead animals on the walls and now that’s what they remember.”

Rajeev Tailor of Portica Real Estate said, “Personalization is a barrier to the buyer. They don’t see the great space and crown molding because they leave the property distracted by, ‘Oh, that’s the house with them in the photo with President Obama or whatever. They leave with the impression of what was in the house versus the impression of the house. You can’t have a successful sale, if someone can’t connect to the 6

AT HOME

property.”

Wight, of Dielmann Sotheby’s International Realty, said, “It can feel sterile to remove all of your family photos, wedding photos and pare down to a simpler life, but I tell people to focus on their goal and keep mementos away.” He said they have to imagine that they don’t live there anymore, and that extends to the kitchen. Depersonalizing can relate to the smells from last night’s meal when a potential buyer is walking through. You don’t want them focusing on what you had for dinner, he said. “That doesn’t mean don’t cook, it just might mean you should use the barbecue outside not the stove” for dishes with a lingering odor.

CREATE A NOT LIVED-IN LOOK Wight, who’s been selling homes for 14 years, said there’s an art to staging he likes to discuss in stages because “selling a home is probably on par with death and divorce.” He said that it can be difficult because suggesting changes can feel like an insult at a time when people feel very vulnerable. “The hardest thing is maybe saying the color of the dining room is a little strong or something, and the (seller) might have spent months picking out that color and they just love it. But I tell them that off white or taupe can get you really far.”

Tailor, who’s been selling homes for 11 years, said that if the worst thing someone says is great space,

but how boring, you’re in good shape because, “The seller has to detach from the property so that someone else can envision it as their home. It takes a lot of preparation, and I do the process in stages. I try to break it up a bit as we start editing the home and then about at the halfway point in the process, the seller usually gets excited with decluttering.” But not always he said, so he treads very lightly. But he remains insistent, because the alternative is a waste of time.

NEGOTIATE WITH KIDS Herrera said, “Sometimes you’ve just got to go with it and be really honest and say this home has kids so we have to make some concessions. But with kids you can make a game out of it, that would be my recommendation because you can’t just completely absolve the place of children. You get them to think of cleaning up as a challenge and offer them an incentive,” of something in the new home or something else to look forward to if they meet the challenge.

Wight agreed, saying that sometimes, “I tell them we’ll give the kids the basement, but that means they keep their things there and not the family room or the kitchen. It’s a negotiation.”

PHOTOS SELL Tailor said that people who haven’t had a property on the mar-

Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

ket in a while don’t realize how technology has changed the game. “Three swipes (three photos), and they decide if they are interested in seeing a property or not. I think a lot of people don’t realize how decisive people are with a very limited amount of information. Sellers sometimes look at a home with a magnifying glass so I have to get them to zoom out and see the overall property as a whole. You want the space to feel balanced throughout. You don’t want anything to be jarring.” He said that even an upgrade in carpet in one room can be an unnecessary distraction because now the rest of the carpet or flooring looks worse.

He’s ruthless in curating room photos, and that becomes the template for how the house should look when buyers arrive.

KEEP THE MOMENTUM Wight said that the first few weeks can be easy, but eventually people get frustrated living in a home that’s on the market. “I’m constantly on the phone with clients to give them pep talks, but they have to imagine that the home is always in partyready condition.” When showings are scheduled, Wight tells people to turn all the lights on and to even play soft music if they are able.

Herrera said this might be the opportunity to start a new habit, so don’t consider it a burden. She tells the anecdote of being young and putting her own home on the market at a time in her life when she was prone to late nights and changing in a hurry in the morning. She got this note from the agent of a potential buyer who once passed on her home.

Her agent told her that “They think your house is really cute, but they can’t stop thinking about your panties on the floor.” He didn’t have to tell her twice, and the house soon sold to another buyer, she said.

Moving? Don’t start packing without these 8 painless tips

By Sophie Miura, Domaine (TNS) You’ve been perusing real estate apps for months, have gone to countless house inspections and finally found the home of your dreams. But before you start building your decor Pinterest board and investing in new wares, it’s time to tackle one of the most frustrating parts of the process: moving.

There’s no denying it: Moving can be a real pain. In fact, people dread it so much that 61 percent of adults list moving homes as more stressful than getting divorced. If you’d rather subsist in your cramped old apartment than pack boxes, moving expert Manuela Irwin says there’s another way. Here, the author of “Relocating Without Breaking a Sweat” and specialist at MyMovingReviews shares her top tips for making the transition sans tears.

Trust us — it’s possible. Follow these eight handy hacks to arrive at your new home stress-free.

1. AVOID MOVING IN THE SUMMER The worst months to move house happen to be the warmest, according to research. Over half of all moves between 2014 and 2015 were done during May, June, August and September, making it a chaotic time to secure movers. “(It’s) the busiest time in the moving industry, demand is high, and thus rates are higher,” Irwin explains. Her advice? “Move during fall. (There’s) less traffic, smaller delivery window, and only full-time employees.”

2. DEAL WITH ADMIN TASKS IN ADVANCE “The moving process does not (only) involve the transportation of your items,” says Irwin. She notes that one of the most stressful and oft overlooked aspects of moving house is tackling administrative tasks.

“You need to think (about) change of address and forwarding mail to the new place, canceling utilities and researching providers at the new place, informing your bank/insurance company, dealing with realtors, ceasing rental agreements or selling property,” she lists. “All that should be planned and organized before moving day.”

3. USE CLING WRAP TO PACK LIQUIDS AND JEWELRY Even the best efforts to carefully wrap delicate items and safeguard liquids can be foiled in transit. To avoid frustration when it comes time to open your boxes, Irwin recommends using a common household item: cling wrap. “Use cling wrap to keep necklaces and bracelets from tangling. Lay a few pieces of jewelry on a length of plastic wrap and fold the wrap over. Press around your items to keep them separate,” she says.

The plastic film can also be used to prevent liquids from spilling. Simply unscrew the lids of shampoos or pantry items like olive oil, and place a small square of cling wrap on top.

Screw the lid back on to secure the plastic and create a second protective layer to avoid leaks.

4. NEVER MOVE ON A FRIDAY OR SATURDAY The results are in: Friday and Saturday are officially the busiest days to move house. A 2015 MyMovingReviews study found that almost 19 percent of all moves occur on a Friday and that July 31, Aug. 1 and June 30 are the most chaotic days to hire movers. The best day to make the transition is Sunday, with only 7 percent of people choosing this day.

5. RESERVE A PARKING SPACE Hiring movers? Irwin says to

AT HOME

be aware of additional fees and prep your space before they arrive.

“Consumers should keep in mind that full-service moving companies charge for accessorial services like when they have to disassemble furniture and assemble it at the new place, storage fees, obstacle like stairs, or if the truck cannot be parked near entrance and movers have to carry boxes more than 75 feet,” she explains. Park your car in front of your home at least a day before prior to ensure the space is available when movers arrive, and measure doorways to check if furniture can fit through with ease.

6. CREATE A CLEAR LABELING SYSTEM Scrawling the rough contents of each box on the side just doesn’t cut it, says Irwin. Instead, she recommends creating a logical and clear labeling system and leaving any essentials like a flashlight or first aid to the side. “Divide your household items into groups based on the room they’re located in, material they’re made of and frequency of use,” she says. “Start with the items you use rarely, and don’t mix items from different rooms or items of different types such as liquids with clothes.”

7. USE LINEN INSTEAD OF BUBBLE WRAP While cardboard boxes and bubble wrap are fairly inexpensive

Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

on their own, moving costs can quickly add up. Before stocking up on supplies, Irwin recommends a few hacks to make the most of items in your home. “Your home is full of free packing materials, such as clothing, bed linens, pillows, laundry bins, and suitcases,” she says.

“Wrap dishes in T-shirts or insert Styrofoam plates in between yours (and) put pillows and blankets in garbage bags and seal them. When you load the truck, use them as padding between furniture or breakable items.”

8. HIRE A SITTER Even if you’re trying to save costs, there’s one expense you should never skip. “On moving day, if you are relocating with kids, you should arrange a sitter in advance,” says Irwin. “If you have pets, make sure they don’t obstruct the work of your movers.” Keeping children and pets out of the house and away from potential safety hazards will relieve a lot of stress on the day so you can focus on the task at hand: moving into your brand-new home!

When creating an efficient, small home office, here are some necessities to include:

— Workspace. This can be a small table or desk.

— Comfortable chair. If you are especially tight on space, consider a foldable chair option that can easily be stowed away.

— Storage. Keeping items hidden can go a long way to create a clean, streamlined look. File cabinets, drawers, top cabinets, even stackable boxes and bins, are good solutions.

— No paper. Instead of having your work space crowded with papers, going paperless will help to keep your workspace clutter-free.

— Lots of light. Lighting can help make your small workspace feel larger and brighter.
