HOME IMPROVEMENT

Remodeling for the sheer joy of it With the cost and competition for home buying at historically high levels, many homeowners are opting to remodel their current home to better meet their TOM needs.

KALINSKI Remodeling can add value to your home in both intrinsic and monetary measures. Over a couple of articles, we’ll look at each of these metrics. Today we’ll start with the sheer joy of it – the intrinsic value of bringing pleasure to the resident homeowner. This has been named the “Joy Score” in a joint study from the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) – the 2022 Remodeling Impact Report.

The study shows that homeowners embark on remodeling projects for a number of reasons – from fixing up and replacing outdated surfaces for improved aesthetics – reported by 14% – to making the floor plan better suit the resident’s functional and livability needs – noted by 35% of homeowners.

“In some instances, homeowners were content with sprucing up a room with a simple paint job, while in other cases, families decided to take on the task of renovating an entire attic or basement to add additional living space to their home,” said Jessica Lautz, vice president of demographics and behavioral insights at NAR. “The pandemic has changed the way we use our homes, and many of those changes are here to stay,” said Lautz. “As a result, homeowners needed to reconfigure or remodel how they use their home and maximize space.”

No matter the intention, the dollars spent were significant.

In 2020, Americans spent $420 billion on home remodeling, the report states. While some projects were driven by pandemic-caused changing needs – 90% of NARI members cited a greater demand for contracting remodeling during the pandemic – 83% of consumers say they would have remodeled regardless of COVID-19. Yet once they caught the remodeling bug it tended to linger, evidenced May 21, 2022

More metro areas saw double-digit price increases in year-over-year median single-family existing home sales in the first quarter of 2022. (Photo: Pexels).

by 86% of consumers reporting that one act of remodeling led to another in other areas of the house.

But let’s get on with remodeling projects high on the Joy scale.

The NAR/NARI report marked projects that made the renovators want to remain home or sparked an increase of enjoyment among occupants, received a high Joy Score, with 10 being considered a perfect Joy Score.

Painting a home’s interior, adding a home office, installing hardwood flooring and closet renovations all received a perfect Joy Score in the NAR/NARI joint study.

Hardwood floor refinishing received a 10 Joy Score.

Homeowners felt happiness and satisfaction in their home after undertaking the upgrade – 64% said their enjoyment was increased and another 64% said just thinking about the completed project provided a major sense of accomplishment.

Adding a new home office also earned a perfect Joy Score with a whopping 91% saying they have a greater desire to be home and 73% expressing an increased sense of enjoyment.

Tasks awarded perfect scores of 10 included: painting a home’s entire interior, painting one room, adding a home office, hardwood floor refinishing, closet renovation and insulation upgrades.

Kitchen upgrades got a nearperfect 9.8 Joy Score. The top reason for a kitchen redux was to upgrade worn out surfaces, finishes or materials, followed by a

need to add features and improve livability.

The NAR/NARI report also evaluated the estimated cost-recovery for the projects.

According to NARI remodelers’ cost estimate, the average kitchen remodel would be about $45,000.

Realtors estimated that $30,000 –

or 67% – could be recovered.

For interior projects, refinishing hardwood floors brought the highest recovered cost at 147%.

New wood flooring cost-recovery was 118% and an insulation upgrade was 100%. Among exterior projects, new roofing and a new garage door both recovered 100% of the project costs.

Stay tuned until we into the remodeling projects that bring the highest monetary return on your investment.

Local gardeners buying plants: Enthusiastic, upbeat and “happy crazy”

BY MARY LYNN BRUNY After months of tantalizing gardening catalogs being sent to them, Front Range gardeners have been let loose from their winter slumber to lunge toward gardening establishments with gleeful abandon.

Mother’s Day weekend There’s never a reason to avoid buying new plants. seems like the Giambrocco & Sons Garden Center official starting flag of the outdoor plant await there? What new hybrids acquisition race. have those clever plant people Fueled by their natural spring cooked up to introduce this year? high, gardeners are now out A periwinkle poppy? A polka in force gathering up leafy dotted peony? A plaid petunia? babies for the season. Clad in (Wouldn’t that be something?) sun-bleached bucket hats and Even a long checkout line does well-worn gardening clogs, they not deter folks’ enthusiasm. If are descending upon nurseries any thing, it multiplies it. like energetic locusts. It’s quite a “I’ve really busted my budget scene. today,” an older man behind me There is no place on earth in line with a big box of blue more joyful than a well-stocked delphiniums and pink echinaceas local plant nursery in spring.

Who knows what new beauties happily confesses.

“I rationalize this as a healthcare expense,” I tell him while trying to balance my heavy box of ‘Indian Summer Raspberry’ heucheras and ‘Big Red Bronzed Leaf’ begonias.

“Gardening keeps me sane and limber.”

“Do you think I can use my medical FSA (flexible spending account) to buy these?” asks the woman behind him, laughing while holding her box of orange and yellow blooms. Medicinal marigolds. That makes sense to me.

There have been numerous reports of more people losing their patience during the pandemic resulting in all kinds of horrible stuff: an increase of road rage incidents, domestic abuse and homicides. But here at a local pop-up nursery is a checkout line of more than 15 people holding some pretty hefty boxes of foliage and no one seems unhappy or impatient.

Apparently, the gardening nursery is a happy zone. No one is threatening anyone else with a weeder tool for grabbing the last yellow pear tomato plant: “Drop it or that ratty, faded shirt you’re wearing will be smeared with more than sheep manure compost!”

It’s like being surrounded by plants – along with other smiling gardeners - makes folks release a wave of feel-good endorphins.

That’s probably not too far off the mark. Gardeners often talk like they are joyfully addicted to plants, like plants are their drugs of choice.

“I know I don’t need this but I

just have to have it,” one man in line says gleefully about a purple passionflower vine in his clutches.

(It is spectacular.)

This reminds me of what my late father, an over-the-top gardener, used to say about buying plants: “What’s need got to do with it? Buy what makes you happy.” I obviously have taken his advise in spades. (No pun intended.)

“I just can’t come here without going crazy,” admits the woman in front of me who has four overflowing boxes of plants on the checkout counter. “But it’s a good crazy. It’s a happy crazy,” she explains.

Happy crazy is good, right?

(It’s so much better than sad crazy or mad crazy.) Plus she’s supporting a local business. She’s practically a hero worthy of praise: The Goddess of Greenery Giving the Greenbacks.

I’ll bet she and a lot of these gardeners standing in line will probably be back within a week, fingers with dirty nails grabbing “just a few more” leafy gems.

You have to buy happiness while it’s in stock.

From cracked pipes to damp decks: 6 things a home inspector might miss Damp decks and porches

Hunter Boyce Atlanta Journal-Constitution (TNS)

Water damage on decks, balconies and porches can lead to spending big bucks down the road, Bill Leys of Waterproofing Consultants told Realtor.com. The costs from the damages can even reach $100,000.

“A deck or balcony can also have serious safety issues and be at risk of collapse,” he added.

Ask your inspector to investigate any cracks, rust or soft areas around drains in these areas to ensure you are not buying a money pit.

Even seemingly small damages can lead to big problems.

A majority of home buyers take the time to hire an inspector before purchasing their next home, as most Realtors and other professionals would suggest.

But an inspector may not necessarily spot every major fault with your next property.

Here are the six top damages that an inspector may not find in your next home, according to Realtor. com.

Dangerous DIY projects

Home sellers will naturally want to spruce up their houses before putting them on the market. But do-it-yourself home improvements that are not done correctly or that use cheap materials can sometimes require expensive renovations.

Consider checking for construction permits with the local municipality to avoid any confusion about the home’s previous repairs, Tom Kraeutler, a former home inspector, told realtor.com.

Cracked pipes

Having your inspector utilize a camera to check the inside of your

Leaky faucets

sewage and drainage pipes usually costs extra, but Kraeutler said it is a worthwhile expense. Without that in-depth look into your pipes, you could be spending thousands on repairs down the line.

Damaged appliances

Inspectors don’t always go over every nook and cranny of a home’s appliances. An oversight concerning the water dispenser on your fridge, for instance, could lead to a flooded kitchen due to a busted seal or a faulty ice machine.

Make sure your inspector checks each appliance for functionality to avoid any big

problems later on.

Corroded air conditioning

If your prospective home’s inspection was performed in cold weather, it’s likely that a test was never run on the house’s air conditioner.

According to Realtor.com, inspectors will often not perform tests on air conditioning units if the temperature is below 55 degrees Fahrenheit in order to avoid damaging the unit. So if you know temperatures are going to be chilly, ask your inspector how they plan to check the air conditioner for any possible damages.

To properly check a home’s plumbing, your inspector will have to be thorough.

From the toilets to the showers, every drainage pipe will have to be checked while there is flowing water.

A faulty shower pan in particular can be a pricey replacement, Kraeutler told realtor.com.

Ask your inspector what they did to check your drainage pipes and faucets to ensure that they were as thorough as your prospective home demands.

Replace or repair? How homeowners can choose the right solution for their water heater connection, replacement may be the best option.

Leading manufacturer Bradford White Water Heaters offers expert guidance for determining whether to continue maintenance or install a new unit PRNewswire/ -- Bradford White Water Heaters, an industryleading American manufacturer of residential, commercial, and industrial water heating and storage products, offers guidance for homeowners who want to know whether they should replace or repair their home water heater.

Homeowners can learn basic principles to help them find a solution that minimizes the risk of unexpected equipment failure associated with aging water heaters but also ensures they’re getting efficiency, performance, and value from their unit.

Homeowners can learn basic principles to help them find a solution that minimizes the risk of unexpected equipment failure associated with aging water heaters but also ensures they’re getting efficiency, performance, and value from their unit.

The unexpected failure of an aging water heater can pose a major inconvenience for homeowners in addition to the costs of emergency plumbing service and a replacement unit. With proper maintenance, however, many older water heaters can safely provide efficient, cost-effective performance that outweighs the costs of replacement.

In general, homeowners struggle to calculate how the up-front cost of a new water heater compares to continued maintenance on an older unit.

“Most homeowners will eventually encounter a situation where they have to decide between continuing to maintain an older water heater and simply installing a new unit,” said Dustin Bowerman, senior director – field services for Bradford White Water Heaters. “Unfortunately, there’s not a simple formula. But 6

Climate

Environmental conditions such as extreme heat, extreme cold, precipitation, salt, and the hardness of water affect how long a water heater remains operational. The harsher the conditions, the sooner you will likely have to replace a heater.

Warranty

The scope of a manufacturer’s warranty is limited, but it can be a valuable tool in case of production defects.

Additionally, Bowerman recommends homeowners ask themselves a series of questions before deciding to replace a water heater:

there are some basic principles that can help homeowners find a solution that minimizes the risk of unexpected equipment failure associated with aging units but also ensures they’re getting efficiency, performance, and value from their home’s water heater.”

Some factors Bowerman recommends homeowners keep in mind when considering whether to repair or replace a water heater include:

Age

The expected lifespan of a residential heater varies greatly, depending on the model, application, maintenance, water conditions and other variables.

If your water heater is out of warranty and requires major repairs, consider investing in a new water heater. For older water heaters, watch out for

small, inexpensive repairs. If they become more frequent, the costs can add up quickly.

Scheduled maintenance:

Following the recommended maintenance program not only keeps your equipment operating, it allows technicians to conduct visual inspections to identify potential issues. Many manufacturer warranties require scheduled maintenance. This information should be outlined in your product’s manual.

Leaks

Most small leaks are the result of loose or disconnected equipment and can be easily repaired. As water heaters age, however, small internal cracks can develop that are harder to repair.

If the source of a leak isn’t easily identifiable as a loose fixture or

• Will investing in a new water heater save money in the long run?

• Will a new unit add efficiency?

• Has household demand for hot water changed since the current unit was installed?

• Are there new local, state, or federal regulations to consider?

• How frequently does the current heater require service?

• Will new higher efficiency equipment reduce energy costs enough to pay for replacement installation?

“Every water heater will need to be replaced at some point,” Bowerman said. “But most sudden breakdowns are preventable. If you’re scheduling regular maintenance, using the heater appropriately, and it’s within the reasonably expected lifetime of the unit, a modest investment in fixing it may be a better value than incurring replacement costs.”

Realtor.com® now helps you understand a home’s wildfire risk

Homeowners and shoppers can view wildfire risk data from First Street Foundation and USDA Forest Service on for-sale and off-market home listings for free PRNewswire/ -- As we enter wildfire season in much of the country, Realtor.com® today announced that it is the first major real estate site to add propertyspecific wildfire risk information to for-sale and off-market homes free of cost. An estimated one in five single family homes in the U.S., representing $8.8 trillion in property value, are at risk of being damaged by a wildfire over the next 30 years. Listings on Realtor. com® will now include a Fire

Factor™ rating from First Street Foundation, a nonprofit research and technology group, as well as information from USDA Forest Service.

“Realtor.com® was the first real estate site to display flood risk data on home listings and maps, which consumers have found to be extremely helpful in the buying process. As the likelihood of natural disasters like wildfire and flood increase, we want to provide as much information as possible for families to make informed decisions about where to live and how to protect their homes,” said Sara Brinton, lead product manager, Realtor.com®.

“By integrating wildfire risk data directly into maps and property listings, we can help homebuyers feel confident when making one of the biggest purchases of their lives.”

According to a recent survey from Realtor.com® and HarrisX, 71% of recent homebuyers took natural disasters into account when considering where to move.

Additionally, about half (47%) of recent buyers are more concerned about natural disasters today than they were five years ago.

Wildfire risk data is not just useful for buyers; it also enables homeowners to take steps to mitigate risk and protect their property. This first-of-its-kind data integration on Realtor.com® gives homebuyers and owners easy access to previously hard-tofind information about wildfires and property risk for free.

Users can explore wildfire risk on interactive maps across the Realtor.com® site. In addition, Realtor.com® listings now include a new Environmental Risk section featuring an overview of wildfire

and flood risks. Wildfire risk information includes: Fire Factor™ from First Street Foundation, which is a simple risk rating on a scale of 1-10 based on the property’s cumulative risk of wildfire damage over 30 years.

The Fire Factor™ score considers property specific attributes such as exposure to embers, the extent and type of fuel sources, such as trees, grass and other vegetation, and the distance between a building and the nearest fuel sources.

The USDA Forest Service Wildfire rating compares the wildfire risk of the county where the property is located to other counties across the country.

Wildfire risk data will be coming soon to rental properties.

DECK DAYS at Budget Home Supply

By John Teehan for At Home Northern Colorado Photos by Jonathan Castner With spring firmly here and summer just around the corner, isn’t it high time to consider building, adding to, or improving your deck? There’s nothing quite like spending time outside your house for a family barbecue, festive gathering with friends, or just some time alone with the outdoors but within easy reach of home.

It sounds great, but let’s face it.

The cold winter months of wind, 8

rain, and snow—followed by wild spring weather—can deliver serious wear and damage to some outdoor decks. You might be finding yourself in need of repairs or needing to replace parts, so it’s safe and secure.

Plus, you always want your home to look its best, and a beautiful deck is a large part of that.

This might even be the year you’ve decided to add a deck to your home or expand an existing one. With COVID-19 numbers in retreat, supply chains are healing, and reasonable gatherings are again a thing. A good-looking

deck is a great way to celebrate.

That’s where Budget Home Supply comes in.

SERVING HOMEOWNERS AND CONTRACTORS

Budget Home Supply, an 80,000-square-foot facility located at 780 Boston Ave, Longmont, has been a trusted name in home building supplies since 1984, serving all of Colorado. As a local, familyowned business, Budget Home Supply is significantly invested in the community and has supported several nonprofits, including the

get exactly what you want while supplies last.

What are a few things you think every deck needs?

This is a great question. I would say having friends to enjoy your deck with, but that’s just me! I also really like to cook, so my deck would not be complete without the Traeger grill. A fire pit is also a very nice feature that can help keep you warm on chilly Colorado nights.

Apart from decking supplies, what else do you feel homeowners and contractors should look into. Does your upcoming sale include other types of supplies?

Can a homeowner find everything they’ll need to construct a simple deck all in one visit?

Absolutely. As northern Colorado’s largest decking supplier, we have everything they will need, from the concrete for the footers to the rafters of the pergola on top of the deck! Heck, they could even get the post-hole diggers to dig the caissons.

DECK DAYS AT BUDGET HOME SUPPLY

Just in time for May building and renovation projects, Budget Home Supply is putting on a special seven-day sale on decking supplies. They’re calling this event “Deck Days.”

This one-time event is the perfect opportunity to get everything you could need to build, repair, and upgrade a deck and make the most of your outdoor space throughout the rest of the year.

We do, this is very common and something we help with daily.

The staff at Budget Home Supply is happy to help.

Have the supply chain issues that have affected so many home construction services been an issue in keeping up with demand?

As we all know, no one is immune from the pains that are happening in these trying times.

Demand is high, and it seems like everyone wants to improve their homes. My advice would be don’t wait—come in soon so you can

Suburbs far outpace urban areas in US home value growth Alex Tanzi Bloomberg News (TNS) The urban real estate market has been running hot in the U.S. since last summer. But the suburbs have been even hotter, according to an analysis from Zillow Group Inc. From January 2013 through June 2021, urban homes have generally been gaining dollar value more quickly. But a switch happened after July 2021 as the economy recovered from the pandemic: Home values in suburban zip codes rose faster on annual basis, fueled by the widespread shift to remote work that spurred millions Americans to look for greener locales and bigger homes.

Zillow economist Nicole Bachaud compared the recent trend to one world-class sprinter edging out another.

“While urban home value gains have continued to accelerate, the suburbs are even hotter, showing

just how strong demand is for limited suburban inventory,” Bachaud said in a press release.

As with most things in real estate, location matters. Some urban areas remain exceptionally attractive to buyers — more so

than their suburbs. Among them are San Jose, Silicon Valley’s biggest city, and Austin, a place that has seen among the biggest gains in home prices during the pandemic.

In other parts of the country,

including the Philadelphia metro area that includes Wilmington, Delaware, the pace home value has plunged in recent months, while they spiked in local suburban and rural zip codes.

to use the options stated above.

Right now, the homes in that neighborhood rent for about $2,500 to $3,000 per month. You would need to pay for mortgage, taxes, insurance and maintenance expenses, while the remaining cash flow could go towards monthly college expenses.

In the early years of the 15-year mortgage, there probably would not be enough rent to cover the whole mortgage payment. You might investigate other financing options, such as the 30-year mortgage, to help with cash flow in the early years.

your child is 18 and ready to go to college.

The property can be sold, the taxes paid, and gains from the sale used as cash for college. Or, you could refinance it to pull cash out – tax-free – and use the cash for college. You could even keep the property free and clear to rent out, and then use the monthly cash flow to pay for college expenses. In many cases, if your child decides to stay in town to attend college, she or he may actually live in the house or property during college and rent out any extra rooms to roommates.

Hindsight is always perfect, but for example, if you bought a home in the Baseline subdivision in Boulder just east of the CUBoulder in 2004 when your child was born, you would have paid approximately $300,000. When the child turned 18 in 2022, the home would be worth about $700,000 and you would have no loan on it. You would be able
