Inspection Negotiations: How They Can Progress or Halt Transactions

Shrug Off Cold Effects With Fertilization

Having a home inspected before purchase is a must, but what happens when it turns up something you don’t feel comfortable with? How much can you negotiate?

Cold weather may have thrown your garden for a loop. If you want to get it back on track, feed it.

Lawn and Garden

Shrug off cold effects with fertilization As a teacher of gardening, there are times when Mother Nature drives me crazy.

Just as I’m explaining CAROL O’MEARA to classes CSU Extension that here in the Rocky Mountains soil temperatures are every bit as important as frost dates for planting, she sends freezing rain, snow, and hail after Mother’s Day as if to punctuate my lessons.

Maybe she thinks she’s being helpful; after all, we needed the moisture and she perfectly illustrated my point that warm season plants will sulk if the soil is too cold for them. But her teasing us with warmth in between these storms is beyond cruel: rumors of impromptu smudge pots and space heaters being deployed in the garden make me believe gardeners tipped towards insanity when the cold moved in.

Fortunately the warmth seems settled in. But after a week where

temperatures hovered around 55 or below, the plants need a signal to actively resume growth. To give your vegetables, annuals, and perennials that stimulus, fertilize them.

If you’re growing cabbage, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, or other cole crops and haven’t fertilized them since planting, apply fertilizer now and again in two weeks. Rapid growth and a steady supply of water is the secret to keeping them sweet. They’ve gotten the water; they need the fertilizer at this time.

Warmer season favorites, like tomatoes, eggplant, or peppers, should be given a boost of fertilizer so they shrug off the effects of the cold weather. Although the soil isn’t completely warmed up – it’s

hovering around 60F-degrees at my house and on campus in Ft. Collins – the predicted warmth should dry out and warm the soil rapidly.

Delay fertilizing potatoes until six weeks after they’ve nosed up from the ground and you’ve finished hilling them. Applied too soon, nitrogen will delay tuber set, and you’ll end up with much smaller potatoes at harvest. Usually six to seven weeks after they’ve been hilled is a good time to fertilize potatoes. Break up the application into two-week intervals and apply it three times.

Onions respond well to a schedule of fertilizing every two weeks.

With shallow roots, they’re not able to reach deeply into the soil to access nitrogen held below their

roots. If you’re hoping to get big, bulbous onions, feed them every other week.

Once you’ve given a quick boost of fertilizer to any vine crops that didn’t perish under the snow, watch for when the vines send out runners, then side dress them with nitrogen once more. After that, back off on fertilizing to avoid getting vines big enough to rope in toddlers without having any squash.

What you use to fertilize the garden is up to you. Keep in mind that we have plenty of phosphorus and potassium in our soils and focus on providing the plants with nitrogen. Bat guano, blood meal, and fish meal all provide at least 10-percent nitrogen, while fish emulsion, cottonseed meal, and alfalfa meal have lower amounts.

Adjust your fertilization rates based on the plant’s performance and get a soil test if you’d like to know how fertile to soil in your garden is.

Top issues of unorthodox patios 4. UNSTABLE FURNITURE The blending of flags or irregular unit pavers with filler gravels creates the combination of hard and softer surfaces. Most low end furniture is not designed to sit on the ground, just decks and solid patios. Here too is another liability. If a guest’s chair is so unstable they fall due to an unorthodox surface, then it becomes a risk.

5. HEAVING AND SINKING

The flagstone path is secondary while the primary entry for guests is a solid construction. (Maureen Gilmer/TNS)

By Maureen Gilmer, Tribune News Service (TNS) Until the last few years, we poured concrete, laid brick and pavers to create outdoor living spaces with safe uniform surfacing in all weather. This was the standard among landscape architects to ensure that humans, from toddlers to seniors with walkers, could get around the yard without risk.

Designers were careful to avoid serious liability from pedestrian accidents due to unorthodox surfacing. Slippery and irregular materials were the most common concern.

Professionals know that should there be an accident, your homeowner’s insurance coverage may be affected if that paving does not conform to the Uniform Building Code.

The current trend in paving originated from environmental concerns of storm drain runoff into beach waters. Along the California coast, new construction or landscaping has to drain on-site, which means all water must percolate down through the soil without any runoff beyond the property line. This resulted in the new trends of segmenting patios into smaller concrete squares with open gaps between them. Gaps use gravel, June 3-4, 2017

artificial turf or groundcover to make it look uniform, but each is a potential trap for the unwary or unsteady. This style spread well beyond coastal communities to encourage groundwater recharge benefits, then blossomed into a national love affair with unorthodox paving trends.

This is a paving style that evolved not for aesthetics or practicality, but for theoretical environmental benefits. As a result, a litany of problems has emerged with modern paving designs that may look appealing but are functionally difficult over the long term. Here are the top five issues:

Walking this sideyard with high heels or a cane is a test in balance.

(Maureen Gilmer/TNS) nice shoes, particularly expensive women’s heels that are scarred with each step. Backing into an unexpected paving gap while your attention is elsewhere makes them treacherous at cocktail parties.

3. BAREFOOT STONE BRUISE Fine gravel or decomposed granite around pools or anywhere else you want to go barefoot can cause a stone bruise. Even the smallest pebble under the heel can be incredibly painful. There is nothing like poured concrete or equal surfaces for bare-footing around your house in warm weather.

That cute new gravel patio you made last spring is likely a mess now after the mud and water and heaving soils do their work. In expansive clay soils the solid materials either sink into the dense ground, it suffers huge drying cracks, or vertical heaving as they absorb water. Sandy soils not so much.

The landscape world has not changed, only the design motivations have. When our concern for ground water recharge exceeds human safety, or even the security granted by homeowner’s insurance, then the trend may not be sustainable. It happens periodically when folks try to force new ideas onto a very established world that hasn’t yet had the time to vet the method over many years.

For these reasons and many more, this style will fade away as weeds, sinking and litter contamination turn a pretty picture into a liability and maintenance problem. They’ll fill in those gaps soon enough, because the problems in design always get solved — one way or another.

1. SENIORS Gaps between flags or pavers on the patio are a huge hazard to seniors who must step over each one as they walk across the surface.

Even when filled with tiny gravel, these gaps are enough to destabilize a senior with a cane or especially a walker.

2. HIGH HEEL OBSTACLE COURSE If every male designer had to negotiate this paving in stiletto heels, he’d never approve it. Truth is, gravel in patio areas is brutal to

Separate your solid paving from your gravel fields rather than mixing to ensure safe surfaces for everyone. (Maureen Gilmer/TNS)

Inspection negotiations: How they can progress or halt transactions

Mortgage concepts homebuyers should know

The real estate process includes several different negotiations.

One of the most

By Suzanne Plewes critical is CRS, ABR, CDPE, GRI negotiatBroker Associate at ing home RE/MAX Alliance inspection results. If done properly, both buyer and seller will feel that they have been treated fairly and will be pleased to move forward with the sale process. If done improperly, it can leave a bad taste in one party’s mouth or even ruin the entire transaction altogether. If you’re planning on purchasing a home this year, keep these in mind as you approach the inspection phase.

Reviewing Inspection Results As a home buyer, it important to remember that inspection reports contain a variety of information. In addition to highlighting issues or items needing repair, it also includes a series of recommendations or improvements. As you review a report, be sure to separate these two types of information and consider only issues in your negotiation strategy.

What to Ask for, If Anything tIt’s rare to have a perfect inspection. Most inspections identify at least some minor issues. If you’re lucky, you will avoid any major ones. Make a list of everything that would be considered issues, and then weigh their importance. Asking for nitpicky items that you could easily or inexpensively fix yourself is often poor etiquette.

Instead, your best bet is to focus on more important items on the list. By making it clear that you are willing to take care of some items yourself, if only the seller would consider addressing the more important ones, you 4

AT HOME

By Jack Guttentag, The Mortgage Professor (TNS) Home purchasers sometimes get into trouble because they don’t truly know the sequence of steps involved in financing their purchase. The steps are qualification, pre-approval, approval, lock and appraisal.

QUALIFICATION

will come across as being a fair and reasonable buyer. Sellers are more likely to be accommodating in this case.

Requests that Kill Deals Certain requests from home buyers can really upset sellers, to the point where they may be less flexible or even unwilling to work with them any further. Here are a few examples of requests that buyers should try to avoid:

Requesting Repairs to Known issues If an issue with clearly visible or previously disclosed by a seller prior to any offers being made, buyers should take those items into account when making their offer rather than trying to negotiate it after the home inspection.

Requesting Upgrades Just because an inspector recommends that you add gutters, upgrade the electrical, or perform some other improvements to a home does NOT mean that you can ask a seller to complete them for you. That’s really no different than asking a seller to upgrade a bathroom for you before closing!

If those upgrades were already completed, the home would probably sell for more money.

The current selling price reflects the current condition and features of the home, and that’s how the buyer should approach it.

This also applies to older homes

that may not be fully up to date on modern building codes.

Requesting Cosmetic Repairs All homes have some cosmetic issues that may not look great but do not impact its function or usability. Asking a seller to address cosmetics is usually not considered reasonable.

Approaching Inspection Negotiations A buyer who includes a long punch list of items that includes unreasonable requests is likely to elicit a negative response from a seller. That same seller may have gladly completed reasonable repairs, but after seeing such an unfair list, may end up being less accommodating. This ultimately does not help the buyer’s situation. By treating a seller fairly and respectfully, buyers are more likely to be treated as such in return.

Remember that every real estate transaction involves two parties, buyer and seller. A proper negotiation strategy takes that into account and allows both parties to feel good about the end result.

Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

Qualification (or pre-qualification, as it is often called) is an opinion that your income, assets and current debts qualify you for a loan of some specified amount. The opinion may come from a lender, a real estate agent, or it may be your own based on your use of an affordability calculator.

Whatever the source, the opinion does not take your credit into account, and no one is committed by it. It used to be that real estate agents did a lot of qualifications, often back-of-the-envelope affairs, so that they would not waste time looking for houses in a price range the buyer could not afford. Increasingly, they ask prospective buyers to become pre-approved by a lender because it is more reliable than a qualification. Most lenders are willing to provide a pre-approval free of charge because the recipient might become a borrower. Home sellers have also learned to ask potential buyers for a pre-approval.

PRE-APPROVAL Pre-approval is a conditional commitment by a lender to make a loan prior to the identification of a specific property.

On a pre-approval, unlike a qualification, the lender verifies the information you provide and checks your credit. A preapproval will stipulate a loan amount or monthly payment but not necessarily the loan type or the price. The lender’s commitment under a pre-approval is always conditional. Rarely are the conditions spelled out. Pre-approvals don’t have expiration dates, but some considerable time may elapse before the borrower receiving a pre-approval comes back to convert it into an approval. During that period, things can happen that cause the lender to back off. For example, the borrower’s credit deteriorates or she loses her job.

No one can reasonably expect a lender to approve a loan in those circumstances.

Less clear-cut are the impacts of adverse June 3-4, 2017

market changes, such as a tightening of underwriting requirements.

If a lender has pre-approved a loan and the market changes to the point where the same loan would not now be approvable, will the lender honor its obligation? I fear that in most if not all cases, the answer is no. Fortunately, abrupt changes in underwriting rules occur very infrequently.

I recommend that purchasers get pre-approved as a way of establishing their bona fides to home sellers and real estate agents. Only one preapproval is needed and it does not commit home shoppers to the issuing lender. It is only fair, however, to include that lender among the loan providers you shop when you have a contract to purchase and need a loan. But bear in mind that if you switch to B after being pre-approved

by A, you must now be approved

by B.

SELF-APPROVAL Prospective home purchasers who want to know their prospects for loan approval before they begin a house search can use the loan approval calculator on my website.

The calculator uses underwriting

requirements posted by participating lenders, including credit score requirements, but the user must enter her own credit score, which might differ a little from the score obtained by a lender.

LENDER APPROVAL Approval is a commitment by a lender to make a loan. Unlike a preapproval, a specific property is identified and the loan details are spelled out. These include the type and purpose of loan, down payment, and type of documentation. It will also include a minimum appraised value and an interest rate, even though a rate is not firmly established until it is locked. The presumption underlying an approval is that the probability of closure is high — much higher than with a pre-approval. It is not 100 percent, however, because borrowers sometimes drop out, and sometimes one or more of the conditions that accompany the approval are not met. Approval letters contain “prior to doc” and “prior to funding” conditions, which are checklists of nitty-gritty details that must be completed before the final docu-

ments are drawn and before funds are disbursed. Sometimes, one of these details derails the train.

LOCK A lock is a commitment by the lender to a specified price — rate and points. Ordinarily, lenders lock at the borrower’s request and view the borrower as being committed as well, though they don’t always communicate this very well, or at all.

Since locking imposes a cost on lenders, some of them charge a nonrefundable fee, which may be credited back to the borrower at closing.

I recommend that when your loan is approved, you lock the price the same day because that is when you know the price. Holding off because you expect market interest rates to decline is a bad gamble. You don’t know how to forecast future interest rates any more than I do. Besides, unless you can monitor your rate on the lender’s website, the market rate when you finally lock will be what the lender says it is.

APPRAISAL An appraisal is an opinion regard-

ing how much a property is worth, based mainly on recent transactions of similar properties in the same market area, with allowance for differences between the properties. While the quality of appraisals has deteriorated in recent years for reasons I have discussed in previous articles, they remain critical in any purchase transaction that requires a mortgage. Mortgage lenders base the maximum amount they will lend on any property on the lower of purchase price or appraisal. This means that if the appraisal comes in below the price, either the seller must reduce the price to the appraised value, or the borrower must make a larger down payment. Usually the seller gives way, but in a sellers’ market in which prices have been rising, the buyer may be forced to put up more cash.

COVERPROFILE

Loveland Roofing crews work to complete jobs correctly and as quickly as possible, making the process as convenient as possible for customers.

A ROOF OVER YOUR HEAD Loveland Roofing Brings Experience and Honesty to the Roofing Industry

By Emma Castleberry, At Home In the 17 years it has served the local community, Loveland Roofing, LLC, has earned the loyalty of many happy customers. Patsy Davis is one of them.

A few years ago, Davis called Loveland Roofing about a few shingles that had come loose on

her roof. Jim Stoner, the company’s owner, sent someone out to fix it.

“I was waiting for the bill and I called and he said there wasn’t a charge,” Davis remembers. “A year later, some other shingles came off.

He sent a man and they put a couple of shingles back on for no charge. I thought it was wonderful.”

Davis says her experience with Jim

Stoner and his business was professional, fair, and comfortable.

“They were prompt,” Davis says.

“They came when they said they were going to come and they did what they said they were going to do. He didn’t try to rob me or sell me a new roof. He’s not a high-pressure business man, but he sure does good work.”

Davis was so pleased that she eventually hired Loveland Roofing to replace roofs on two of her properties. Both times, she marveled at how efficiently Stoner and his team cleaned up after the job was finished.

“The clean up was spectacular,” she says. “I maybe found one nail in a crack in the sidewalk. I was very pleased.”

Stoner says it’s impressed customers like Davis that have helped him build his business.

“We have a great reputation,” he says. “Our reputation gets us as much business as anything else.”

Stoner says that reputation is largely based on the experience he and his team bring to every roofing job.

“I worked for other companies for many years,” he says. “I found a

Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

lot of the faults in the business and I have gained from that. I thought I could do a better job by opening my own. What I have learned from other companies, I put it into my own company and excel with it and better it in my way. Experience is a lot in business.”

Stoner isn’t the only one at Loveland Roofing with experience. He makes a point to reduce turnover in his crew, many of whom have worked for him since he started the company. In 2006, Stoner added an estimator to his team: Ralph Muhlenbruck.

Muhlenbruck brought his own wealth of experience to Loveland Roofing, specifically as an insurance adjustor. As a representative of National Catastrophe Adjusters in Indiana, he traveled all across the Midwest to process insurance claims for property damage from wind, hail and storms.

Muhlenbruck’s experience combined with Stoner’s make for an unstoppable team when it comes to helping you process insurance claims on home damage.

“These insurance claims that come in are really complicated for the June 3-4, 2017

Commercial or residential, no job is too big or too small. homeowner and we can really help them on that,” Stoner says. “With a lot of plans, it’s hard to understand what the coverage is. People get a quote and they are lost right away.

We try to help them and walk them through their insurance claim.”

If your roof has suffered damage, or you think it might be time for a new one, Loveland Roofing will provide you with a free estimate.

And if it’s necessary, Muhlenbruck and Stoner will handle all insurance negotiations on your behalf. The best part? They’ll do all of it for a

fair price.

“We’re not trying to over-price anybody,” he says. “If we see someone has problems financially, we’ll go in and try to help them. Period.

We give them a break every time.”

Loveland Roofing cares about the health of your roof—they want it to last. Stoner says the average life expectancy of a roof is 20 years, but homeowners have to be proactive in helping their roof reach that birthday.

“Tree limbs will damage roofs faster than anything,” he says.

Stoner encourages homeowners to trim back trees and limbs that are growing on or near the roof. Also, keeping gutters clean can help protect your roof: a clogged gutter can trap water under shingles and cause damage. Stoner also warns against home-insulation DIYers.

“People come in and they add insulation to their roofs and attics and they plug up their ventilation,” he says. “If you don’t have air circulation, that will give dry rot to the roof right away.”

But sometimes, even if you do

everything right, you’ll be thwarted

by Colorado’s wind, snow, and hail.

If and when that happens, it’s time to call up Stoner and his team.

When you use Loveland Roofing, not only are you getting the best deal from honest people, but you’re also support a tried-and-true local business. Stoner, who has lived in the area for almost 40 years, is passionate about the Loveland community.

“I like everything about this area,” he says. “I like the people, the temperatures, the change of seasons.

It’s just an enjoyable place to live.”

Home Improvement

Add beauty, safety to your home with outdoor lighting

By Pat Setter, The San Diego Union-Tribune (TNS) The right outdoor lighting can redefine a property, adding not only safety and security but expanding the use of the yard and beautifying the space. Whether starting from scratch or retrofitting an existing yard, the most important trend today is installing LED lights.

LED lights (light-emitting diodes) are energy-efficient, versatile and will reduce maintenance. Although installing LEDs is a bigger investment upfront, the savings will come with a reduced electrical bill and longer-lasting bulbs. LED light will last 50,000 hours compared with 2,000 to 4,000 hours for halogen lights, said Mike Geier, owner of Lightscape Designs. Replacing traditional outdoor lights with LEDs can net up to 85 percent in energy savings.

Technology is also transforming the way outdoor lights function.

Settings can be changed from a smart phone or computer. “There are affordable ways to install an integrated system,” Geier said.

Most lighting turns on and off in zones, but new technology is adding even more control. The FX Luminaire Luxor ZDC Outdoor Lighting System allows for zoned lighting as well as dimming and multitude of colors.

Most homeowners prefer a soft, warm white light, Geier said, but other color choices are available.

LED lights make great outdoor lights.

“There’s cool technology out there for control over color combinations,” he said. It’s a fun option for people who love to decorate for the holidays: red and green for Christmas, orange for Halloween and red, white and blue for the Fourth of July.

Outdoor lighting has three basic tasks: safety, security and enhancing the outdoor space. “Everyone has different security concerns,” Geier said. Some homeowners want lights all around the home, while others prefer just a light above a door.

Lighting is essential in areas where people could trip, such as stairs. For beautification, he said, people want a “resortlike property.”

To get that effect, Geier said he looks at all the focal points, such as trees, fountains, pathways and even architectural features. The results should be dramatic, but the lights themselves should be discreet. That is one reason why hardwired lights are still the preferred choice. Solar, he said, does not have the same reliability, quality, output or look.

“You want to try and hide the source of the light, so it’s often in a shady area,” he said. That will hinder powering the lamp with solar energy unless the panel is separate, which makes the unit more cumbersome.

LED strips are becoming increasingly popular in new landscaping.

They can illuminate stair risers for safety or wrap around the bottom of cabinets or the grill in an outdoor kitchen for ambiance. Geier said he does not recommend wrapping trees because of the ongoing maintenance involved rewrapping as the tree grows. “It’s a really cool look, but go in with your eyes wide open,” he said.

Thanks to Costco, market or string lights have become very popular. “It’s a huge trend,” Geier said. These lights are great for small patios and pool decks.

“Lighting can really transform your outdoor experience,” he said.

“Even if you’re inside the house, lighting can bring the landscaping indoors.”

If so, it was likely as if you had walked into a wonderland: truffle oil, olive oil, peanut oil and canola oil on one shelf; almond flour, quinoa and rice in separate containers; seven (yes, seven!) types of pasta all portioned out into tall reusable glassware… But why is it that this level of organization gives you all the feels?

“Without proper organization behind the scenes, people can never truly have their homes feel like the haven they set out to create,” says Carly Waters, an L.A.-based interior designer and, by default, professional organizer. Waters has seen it all when it comes to her clients, including (but not limited to) one avid baker’s collection of more than 20 different types of flour and numerous other unknowing food hoarders from 2006. The organization guru says she likes to think about a pantry the way others think of closets: The more you have, the less you’ll use. “The idea behind the capsule wardrobe can be transferred to your pantry,” she says. “Have your set

food staples, and make them stand out.” But before you can start on the fun stuff, there are a few things to be done. With Waters’s help, we’ve rounded up five insider tips for how to organize your pantry like a pro.

Here are the step-by-step details.

1. EMPTY Take literally everything off the shelves so that when you’re finished, they’re completely bare. Since you likely haven’t seen the tops of the shelves in a while, now is a good time to give them a good wipe so they’re extra clean, Waters says.

2. SORT “Remember those matching games from when you were a kid?” asks Waters. “This is just like that.”

Put all the grains with the grains, legumes with the legumes and so forth. When you’re finished sorting, there should be piles of each food category.

3. EDIT This is the time where you need to decide between tossing or keeping each item. First, start by checking expiration dates — if something’s old or smells off, chuck it. Next, evaluate which items you’ll never use and donate those to a local charity. Then,

Bear in mind, anything you put down will also be of interest to pets and children, so be careful what you use.

Diy Methods For Ant Removal

Although ants generally don’t harm people, infestations are a major nuisance. Fortunately, DIY and professional pest control options exist.

If ant explorers have morphed into a full-on colony, then you need a plan.

Start with soap and water. This will not only kill chemical trails, but any ants it touches. Add citrus to the water to increase effectiveness.

You can also purchase pest sprays and baited ant traps from local grocery and hardware stores. These use a mixture of sugars and ant poison, such as boric acid to attract, trap and kill ants. These traps won’t work on protein-feeders like carpenter ants, since the sweetness won’t interest them.

With a mixture of Windex,

Keeping ants out If you see scout ants in your home, kill them immediately. Don’t leave any food out and keep kitchen surfaces clean.

If you continue to see ants, make sure you’ve closed off possible entry points, including small cracks in your walls or under windows. Start by caulking such areas, like window casings.

Next you can lay down barriers like salt or talc under doors to turn June 3-4, 2017

Organization guru Carly Waters says she likes to think about a pantry the way others think of closets: The more you have, the less you’ll use. (Dreamstime) Waters suggests getting creative. For example, if you have a collection of half-empty liquor bottles that you only use occasionally, create a bar and display those bottles as decor.

4. RELOCATE Your pantry should only contain food, so any random items that ended up in there must be returned to their proper homes. Waters is a big proponent of displaying items that traditionally are kept in the pantry — for instance, she loves setting up a tea or coffee station on the counter. “Use those items to design your space,” she says. “Make your home feel like your favorite hotel

vinegar and water, you can spray around the exterior of the home where the house meets the pavement or ground to prevent more ants from infiltrating. Spray cracks around the baseboards and the base of the toilet if the infestation is in the bathroom.

Hire A Pest Control Professional Large-scale infestations require a pro, who can locate the colony itself.

Typically this starts by laying bait traps, which contain poisoned food taken back to the nest. Once found, exterminators can use a variety of techniques, including chemical sprays.

In the case of carpenter ants, early detection is critical. Left unchecked, they can cause significant damage to your home. A pest control pro may need to drill small holes in your wall to make sure the entire colony has been eliminated, and will often book

room.”

5. DECANT Welcome to the part where you get to break out the label maker.

Remove all food from its packaging and fill up glass jars with airtight lids to keep food and ingredients fresh. She says you can literally decant anything — from spices to toothpicks. Lastly, label each jar so you can easily spot it among your array of goodies.

a follow-up.

Costs Of Ant Removal The cost to remove ants yourself can be quite low. The price of a liquid ant killer or an ant trap runs between $5 and $10.

DIY treatments may divert ants which haven’t established a colony, or deal with the scouts sent out to gather food. However, they aren’t as effective at long-term removal or in addressing large-scale infestations.

Professional exterminators can charge between $400 and $1,000 to completely eliminate ants.

In addition, a reliable, professional exterminator can make sure ants don’t find their way back inside.
