There is a point in summer when gardeners can’t show fear.

The growing season fills all of our spare time - we’re running full tilt, harvesting, weeding, and watering; there are blooms to pick, mulch to replenish, and insects to

BY CAROL fight off. At a O’MEARA certain point Colorado State University Extension I wonder why I always smell like plants, but it’s not a bad scent and soon after washing I’m back in the plants again, getting covered in sap.

The rush and frenzy can get overwhelming, so for stress relief, take time to stop and smell the roses.

Our roses don’t have many problems here in Colorado compared to other places, but a few problems crop up each year for gardeners. Leaf cutter bees are a nuisance, cutting circular pieces out of the leaves to use in building nests. These small, mild mannered bees are grey with white stripes and, though the leaves with holes look alarming, the bees are good pollinators and harmless.

Spider mites can also be problematic, feeding on sap and reducing the vigor of plants.

Thriving in hot, dry weather, their damage can cause leaves to look bronzed and drought stressed. Look closely at the plants for tell-tale webbing and if you have spider mites, and drive them off by increasing humidity around the plant with a jet of water daily.

Powdery Mildew, one of the most prevalent rose diseases, can show up in wet or dry weather. Conditions that encourage the fungus to develop are daytime temperatures near 80 degrees with higher relative humidity and nighttime temperatures around 60 degrees. Early signs are raised bumps on the upper surface of

leaves. Later the fungus will distort leaves and buds and cover them with a whitish, talcum-like powder. Untreated plants eventually become stunted, and their leaves will curl and drop. To contain the problem, remove and destroy all infected canes and shoots.

Spraying with sulfur dust is helpful but should not be used in hot weather since they can cause leaf damage. Rake up and destroy all leaves at the end of the season to prevent the fungus from spreading to other plants.

Rust fungus can infect roses when moisture levels are continuously high for two to three hours at temperatures between 65 and 70 degrees.

First appearing as orange, powdery pustule-like growths on the underside of leaves, the rust becomes visible on the upper leaf surface as orangebrown spots; eventually leaves turn black. Remove infected leaves and canes at the first sign of rust.

Black Spot shows up on leaves as circular dark brown spots with jagged edges. Leaves infected with black spot will turn yellow and drop. Wet weather and temperatures between 65 and 75 degrees promote the disease’s development. Black spot spores

Loveland Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

move easily and can be spread by splashing water, pruning shears, and gardeners’ hands.

Since the fungus overwinters on fallen leaves and in lesions on canes, remove and destroy all infected foliage, particularly at the end of the season. To avoid transmitting black spot to healthy roses, rinse the pruning shears in a bleach solution after working on an infected rose.

HOME IMPROVEMENT

Try these 8 water-saving home renovations INSTALL SPRINKLERS WITH TIMERS OR RAIN SENSORS Putting sprinklers on a timer can keep your water output consistent and keep you from having to monitor its progress.

Unattended hoses and sprinklers can waste hundreds of gallons of water in just a few hours.

Set your timer for early in the morning (6 to 7 a.m.) so the water won’t evaporate in the sunlight.

Another inexpensive water saving trick is to add rain sensors to your sprinklers. The sensors will tell them to skip an irrigation cycle if there is rainfall.

Consider installing a rain barrel to conserve water. (Dreamstime)

increased sustainability, here are some popular projects to consider.

Water-saving renovations are money-saving renovations. Leaky pipes, outdated appliances and poor irrigation practices hike up your water and energy bills and wreak havoc on your septic system. And in drought-ridden states, wasting water can even subject you to hefty fines and usage audits.

Luckily, many water-saving home renovations are simple and inexpensive. And costlier renovations, like purchasing and installing new appliances, can offer long-term gains by saving thousands of gallons of water a year. Whether you’re renovating to fix an existing water problem or looking to save money with

REPAIR LEAKING PIPES AND FAUCETS Hidden leaks can flood your lawn and destroy your home’s interior. One indicator of a leak is an inconsistent water meter reading. Check your water meter before and after a two-hour period when water isn’t being used. If the meter reading changes between readings, you probably have a leak. Damp walls, excess mold, cracks in pavement, unusually high water bills and a noticeable drop in water pressure may also indicate a leak. If your home shows any of these signs, consider calling a pro to inspect your pipes.

INSTALL A RAIN BARREL Collecting rainwater that your roof or lawn naturally accumulate can save you a lot of water. Installing a rain barrel is a simple and inexpensive way to reduce your water bill and your ecological footprint.

USE A DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEM Better yet, consider installing a drip irrigation system to water your lawn. A drip system applies a small amount of water uniformly on your lawn. Another benefit? It’s more accurate than sprinklers. No more dead grass and brown spots.

INSTALL A WATER AERATOR ON YOUR KITCHEN SINK A water aerator limits water flow to a non-splashing stream.

This slows the flow of water to cut water waste. To install the water aerator, simply screw it onto your faucet head.

PURCHASE A LOW-FLOW OR DUAL FLUSH TOILET A low-flow or dual flush toilet will save thousands of gallons of water a year and reduce the load on your septic system, thereby extending its lifespan. With a dual flush system, you can even purchase a model with different buttons for solid and liquid waste, customizing how much water you put out and reducing water use by up to 67 percent.

Or, repair your current toilet.

Over time, the parts (especially the flapper valve) corrode, bend and become less efficient, which causes leaks. These parts are generally inexpensive and easy to install.

BUY A NEW SHOWERHEAD Installing a new showerhead is a cheap, easy change you can make to save water. You want a showerhead that delivers 2.5 gallons of water per minute or less (as opposed to older models which deliver 8 gallons per minute).

REPLACE OLD APPLIANCES WITH ENERGY-EFFICIENT MODELS Front-load washing machines save up to half the water of a topload washer.

Look for Energy Star-qualified appliances that meet the energy saving standards of the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy.

thing that he is supposed to do.

When there are lots of sales in a neighborhood, an appraiser has an easier time trying to come up with an appraisal amount. As you’ve come to see, when there is a limited number of units that have sold and the market is hot, appraisers might have a harder time coming up with a home value that keeps pace with a hot market.

You need to remember that an appraisal is not, in our view, an exact science. Appraisers that have been in business for years can tell you stories about how some property values can come in low and some can come in high.

Frequently, and in most cases, appraisers hit the sales price of the home right on the mark.

There are a couple of things that could impact your appraisal from the appraiser’s side. We’ve seen situations where appraisers have performed appraisals in markets in which they have had very little experience. In these situations, the appraisals can come in way short.

It looks to us that the appraiser in your situation is close to the amount of your purchase price but not quite there. While you might want the appraiser to say the home is worth $15,000 more than what the appraiser came in at, the appraiser might be right.

But we are not appraisers and can’t second guess the appraiser’s evaluation of your home’s value.

But what we do know is that your real estate agent also has a good pulse on what is going with real estate values. Your agent’s review of the comparables may give your agent ideas of what information the appraiser might have missed. It possible that some amenities in comparables are included or excluded that affect that home’s value and ultimately the amount of the appraisal.

In limited cases, the buyer’s lender may send out a second appraisal to get an additional opinion to get things through.

The reality is that if your buyer wants your home, the appraiser’s value is quite close to the price you and the buyer

Loveland Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

agreed to. The buyer can use the appraisal to negotiate a reduction in the purchase price, but in a hot market another buyer may be willing to buy the home even when the appraisal is a bit low, and the second buyer will do that by putting more money down in cash.

Here’s how it might work: Buyers have a certain amount of money that they can put down toward the purchase of a home.

If a buyer agrees to purchase a home for $200,000 and is getting an 80 percent loan for $160,000, then the down payment of 20 percent comes to $40,000. If the appraisal comes in at $190,000, the lender will still give the buyer an 80 percent loan, but 80 percent of $190,000 is only $152,000. The buyer would have to put down $48,000 in order to proceed with the closing.

If the buyer has the $8,000 to put down and wants the house badly enough to put down the extra cash, the deal can move forward.

In situations where the buyer doesn’t have the extra cash to put down, then the deal might die.

You’ll need to evaluate how badly the buyer wants to buy the home, how badly you want to sell, whether your real estate agent is able to get more information to the appraiser to have him or her up the amount of the appraisal, and if there are other buyers waiting in the wings.

Good luck with the sale and move.

The art of downsizing

By Mary Carol Garrity Tribune News Service (TNS) If there is anyone who can share some wisdom on the art of downsizing, it’s my friend Marsee.

In the 41 years she and Mike have been married, they have moved a whopping 18 times. A few years ago, they decided it was time to downsize. So they sold their lovely 100-year-old Tudor home (featured in my book “Rooms We Love”) and bought a townhome just off of Kansas City’s historic Country Club Plaza.

Marsee is thrilled with so many facets of their smaller home.

With no yard to care for and a lot less house to keep up with, they have more time to explore all the city has to offer, from art exhibits to entertainment. Their neighborhood is in the center of it all, and they can walk to shopping, the gym, the library and area parks.

While the outcome is usually satisfying, the process of downsizing can be painful. I asked Marsee to share some of her secrets. Here’s her advice: Love It Or Leave It When you have a lot less space to live in, you have to make some tough decisions about what will

follow you to your new home.

Marsee didn’t want the rooms in her new home to be packed full, so she made some tough choices early on, determined to only keep the furniture, artwork and accents she absolutely could not live without.

Give Your Extra Treasures To Those You Love When Marsee and Mike started out as newlyweds, she remembers how family members helped them outfit their first homes, giving them furniture and other pieces that had been passed down through the generations. She wanted to do the same for her son and daughter-in-law, and other family members.

Once Todd and Brooke picked the family pieces they wanted

for their own home, Marsee and Mike loaded them up in a 17-foot Penske truck they nicknamed Big Al and drove the furniture to Arizona. As Marsee shared the story of each piece, Brooke recorded it in a notebook. Now, Marsee says, the couple can start creating their own stories with the heirlooms.

Rethink Where Your Furnishings Go So often, we get in a rut with our decorating. For example, if a piece of art hung over your fireplace mantel for years, you can’t imagine it anywhere else.

When she downsized, Marsee moved a lot of furnishing and accents to new places. The chairs and table that once filled her

Live In The Space For A While Before You Make Final Decorating Decisions When Marsee first moved into the townhome, she thought she wanted a keep her decor very edited. This would be a change for this talented decorator, who has taught me so much about designing layered displays.

Interestingly enough, after she lived in the townhome for a few months, she missed many of her old treasures, and the feel of more complex tableaus on her tables.

She pulled some of her favorites out of storage and bought a few new pieces and got busy layering.

Discover How To Live In Your Smaller Space Marsee and Mike love to entertain. But they were not going to be able to accommodate the same number of guests, in the same way, in their smaller townhome. So Marsee began to rethink how they entertained.

Instead of having guests congregate in the kitchen or living room, Marsee decided to spread the party to the home’s third level office, coaxing guests up there by setting up food and drinks.

REAL ESTATE

Real estate startup aims to make everyone a cash buyer

By Rachel Lerman The Seattle Times (TNS) As buying a home gets more competitive, cash offers often reign supreme. So a Seattle startup is angling to help homebuyers who don’t have cash on hand to stay in the game.

FlyHomes acts as a sort of intermediary buyer for homes – it prescreens the homebuyer, then puts in an all-cash bid to the seller.

If it wins, it allows the seller to move out when it’s convenient within 60 days. FlyHomes then resells the home to the original June 9-10, 2018

interested buyer after the standard closing period.

“What we’re effectively doing is providing a buffer,” co-founder and CEO Stephen Lane said.

The startup Thursday announced a $17 million funding round led by Silicon Valley firm Andreessen Horowitz. Mark Vadon, the low-profile but prosperous Seattle entrepreneur who started online jewelry store Blue Nile and digital clothing retailer zulily, also invested in the round. Vadon originally led the company’s $2 million seed funding round last year.

Lane and co-founder Tushar Garg, both former Microsoft employees, started the company in 2015 after noticing a trend – home sellers were often choosing all-cash offers, even if others were willing to pay more with traditional financing.

FlyHomes collects the standard buyer’s agent commission, usually about 3 percent.

FlyHomes has helped people buy about 400 homes in the hot housing markets where it operates: Seattle, Chicago, Boston and the Bay Area.

The company employs teams

Loveland Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

of people to act as real estate agents and give homebuyers tours. FlyHomes is a real-estate brokerage, so it has access to MLS listings. And on the rare occasion that a buyer falls through, FlyHomes sells the home it just bought to someone else, Lane said.

The startup has 60 employees, double what it had in December, and plans to use its newest funding to expand its services and head count.

COVERPROFILE

Visit this equestrian-friendly dream property

By Brittany Anas for At Home The home’s decks and outdoor spaces are perfect for entertaining.

An eight-bedroom, custombuilt home with beautiful stonework, luxe finishes and a sprawling backyard is for sale in Berthoud — and this listing is one that equestrians will especially love. The spacious and elegant property at 2443 Omni Court in Berthoud allows for horses, which, as Melissa Doherty and Andrea Schaefer, real estate agents for The Group, Inc., explain is a rare allowance in Northern Colorado.

Perched on 2.8 acres of land, buyers could potentially build a barn and even bring other 4-H animals should they choose.

The home backs up to a 12acre conservatory and abuts farm land. “That means your views are never going to be obstructed,” Doherty says. “The

LUXURY, CUSTOM-BUILT HOME presented by The Group Real Estate, Melissa Doherty and Andrea Schaefer mountain views are amazing.”

Homeowners will be spoiled with sprawling, panoramic views of Northern Colorado’s most famous landmarks, Mount Meeker and Longs Peak. Elk have also been known to make cameo appearances on the property thanks to surrounding native grass, and adding to the home’s quintessential Northern Colorado appeal.

The spacious two-story home with eight bedrooms and seven bathrooms is 5,805 square feet.

The home, on 2.8 acres, backs to panoramic mountain views that will never be obstructed.

by Al Hauser and built by Ed Rust, owner of Lifestyle Custom Homes—a leading home builder in Northern Colorado. The home is 100 percent customized, with top-notch upgrades throughout.

While the home at 2443 Omni Ct. was built in 2004, the upgraded appliances and the forward-thinking architecture exude a modern feel. “The home feels like it was built this year,” Schaefer says. The home has been meticulously cared for, she adds.

As a custom masterpiece, the home blends style and elegance with luxe comforts and timeless designs. The gourmet kitchen, for example, features granite, knotty alder cabinets and stainless steel appliances. A wide, stone archway beautifully frames the kitchen. In fact, the stonework throughout the home is exquisite, Doherty points out. A stand-out feature in the home is a stunning, floor-to-ceiling stone living room complemented by floorto-ceiling windows, which show off the views and let the famous

Colorado sunshine spill into the home. The main floor also boasts a study and guest suite. Upstairs, the master bedroom has a large walk-in closet.

Another stand-out feature of the home is the beautifully finished basement, complete with a wet bar. The basement has potential for a home theater, as well, and is big enough that it could also be used for gym space.

The walk-out basement opens up to the home’s expansive backyard, which is perfect for entertaining thanks to the upscale outdoor living spaces, including a hot tub, complemented by the picturesque mountain views and stunning sunsets. A field stretches out from behind the backyard and there’s a view of a pond nearby as well.

The home also has an oversized three-car attached garage. Among the home’s green features include double-pane windows, storm doors, a high-efficiency furnace and set back thermostat.

are not in a metro tax district, Doherty says. Also, homeowners will not be paying homeowner association dues.

The location of 2443 Omni Ct. in Berthoud also makes the home ideal to all Northern Colorado communities, Schaefer says.

Nicknamed the “Garden Spot of Colorado,” Berthoud is especially charming with its small-town

feel and charm reflected in events such as Berthoud Days, a longstanding festival which is the first Saturday in June and begins with a parade and ends in the Town Park. Fickel Park in Berthoud is also gaining recognition as it features several sculptures from local artists, adding to Berthoud’s identity as an artistic town. Plus, Berthoud’s proximity to I-25

makes it easy to access bigger cities like Fort Collins to the north and Denver to the south, while Loveland, Longmont and Boulder can be quickly accessed via U.S. 287. “It’s truly the best of both worlds,” says Doherty.

Doherty points out Berthoud is close to shopping and restaurants in downtown Loveland, and also nearby the nightlife offered in

Fort Collins. Yet, the city is only 45 minutes away from Denver International Airport.

Plus, Berthoud has its own great parks, pools and familyfriendly amenities.

Documents to keep after your home closing and why Most home buyers receive a stack of paperwork at closing. This pile often ends up in the shredder or lost among your SUZANNE endless boxes PLEWES of paperwork.

RE/MAX Alliance Although you will likely never look at most of those documents again, there are a few that are important to put aside. Here are five documents concerning your home purchase that you should definitely keep:

those are. It’s always best to keep a copy of the fully executed Purchase and Sales agreement.

Seller Disclosure Statements Anything disclosed by the seller to you in writing is important. By law, sellers are required to disclose all known material facts about a property. If you encounter a problem with your home in the future and wish to file a lawsuit against the seller, you would need a copy of the disclosures to prove that it lacked certain information.

Additionally, you would need to prove that a seller had knowledge of the problem. Unfortunately, some things can go unnoticed through multiple owners.

Purchase and Sales Agreement Your Purchase and Sales agreement is a contract between you and the seller. Most of the terms are relevant up to the closing, but there are also some terms that may survive the closing.

Without a copy of the contract, you may not know exactly what

Home Inspection Report There are several reasons to keep inspection reports. First, if you believe your inspector misrepresented a problem or failed to detect something that he should have, the report would be evidence in a lawsuit. Secondly,

inspection reports can be used to develop a list of repairs and home improvements. Lastly, most reports include a wealth of information on home maintenance and system operations. This can be extremely useful, especially if you are a first-time buyer.

Closing Disclosure At closing, you receive a closing disclosure statement. This outlines your closing costs, prepaid expenses and other figures related to your home purchase. Some expenses may be tax deductible, so keep this on file for tax time.

Additionally, when you go to sell your home in the future, you may need some information from this form to calculate your net profits and any resulting tax liabilities.

Title Insurance Policy Owner’s title insurance is optional, but most homebuyers purchase it for peace of mind.

If you encounter a title issue in the future, you will need the

policy to know who to contact for assistance. Additionally, your policy documents include information on what is covered or specifically excluded.

Summary These are just a few critical documents from your home purchase and closing. There may be others that are important, depending on your situation. Ask your real estate agent and closing attorney to provide electronic copies of documents so that you won’t need to worry about shredding something that you might need in the future. You can keep them all!
