Three Questions

For First Timers

To Consider If you or someone you care about is like many renters, you may be wondering if the time to buy a home is now.

According to the experts at the National Association of Realtors (NAR), the answer may be “yes.”

Interest rates remain low and job growth is holding steady, leading to the strongest year of existinghome sales since 2007.

While renting is a short-term decision and usually involves signing a yearlong lease, homeowners typically stay in their home around eight to 10 years before selling. That’s why, when determining what you want in your first home, it’s important to think about how your life may be different at least five years from now.

What To Ask Consider these three questions if you’re taking the exciting leap to homeownership: 1. What can you afford?

Analyze your financial situation. Have all current debt obligations—credit cards, student loans— been repaid on time? Find out what you’re qualified to borrow by visiting a lender and getting a preapproval.

2. Do you want a walkable community or leafy suburb?

A recent survey by NAR and Portland State University found that 79 percent of participants place importance on being within easy walking distance of places. Having lots of dining and shopping options outside your door is popular but often comes with trade-offs. Consider this: If kids are in your short-term future, you might prefer a large single-family home with a yard to a similarly priced but smaller town house or condo.

newsShorts

3. Would you prefer shiny and customized or a resale with more character?

Buying new or used may come down to your wallet. The most recent median price for newly built homes was $292,700, compared to $228,700 for existing homes, according to NAR. A new home comes with such perks as being move-in ready and giving you the option of customizing the interior. On the other hand, an existing home may have architectural charm and original hardwood flooring but you may have to compromise on some features when buying a resale.

Once you’ve made your decision, to ensure a smoother buying experience, find a Realtor with expertise working with clients in your desired area. You’ll get invaluable insight on local market conditions and have a guiding hand through the complex process of closing on your first home.

To find a Realtor, browse through this issue or enter the zip code of the area you want to live in, at www.realtor.com/realestateagents. (NAPSI)

News Of Older Houses Older homes often have a unique charm but few have insulation that meets modern energy efficiency standards. This can result in air leaks, wasted energy and high utility bills.

One way to fix this is with spray polyurethane foam (SPF) insulation.

It can be seamlessly added in and around walls, attics and roofs. By sealing cracks, seams and joints, some SPF products provide a waterproof membrane that acts as a vapor and air barrier, which in addition to insulating improves energy efficiency. A properly insulated home can reduce heating and cooling needs by 30 percent, according to the Department of Energy.

Many homeowners don’t realize that the attic is one of the main places where heat and cold air can escape. As the Department of Energy explains, holes in a typical attic account for 15 percent of a

home’s energy loss. Cracks and gaps let air out and rainwater in. SPF can fill in around the cracks to create an effective barrier.

You can learn more at www.whysprayfoam.org.

Savings vary. Find out why in the seller’s fact sheet on R-values. Higher R-values mean greater insulating power. (NAPSI)

Kids and Cords Don’t Mix Preparing your home for holiday guests with young children? The Window Covering Safety Council (WCSC) and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) are reminding parents and caregivers to check their window coverings for exposed or dangling cords, which pose a strangulation hazard to infants and young children, and to replace them as soon as possible with safer blinds and shades.

They encourage parents and caregivers to follow these basic window safety precautions: Install only cordless window coverings, or window coverings with inaccessible cords, in homes with young children.

Move all furniture, cribs, beds and climbable surfaces away from windows.

Mount window guards or window stops to prevent children from potentially falling from a window. Ensure that windows cannot open more than 4 inches if young children are in the home.

For more information on window cord safety, visit CPSC’s Window Covering Safety Information Center, or windowcoverings.org, and follow WCSC on Facebook and Twitter.
