Financing a mortgage Pre-qualification vs pre-approval – what’s the diff? )` 4LNOHUU -PUU :LW\S]LKH
I
f you’re thinking of purchasing a new home, you’ve undoubtedly heard these mortgage industry terms: pre-qualification and pre-approval. To ensure the details of the loan align with the objectives of the buyer as well as with the lender’s rules, it’s important to have a clear understanding of these financing tools. Pre-qualification Considered by most experts to be the first step in the home-buying process, pre-qualification is typically an early conversation between the buyer and lender to discuss income, debt, assets, sales price, payment levels and down-payment. It is also an opportunity for buyers to ask questions and discuss goals. “The pre-qualification is more of a basic application where we take a look at items such as the type of loan, income levels and credit scores,” said Chad Stallings, a mortgage banker with Arizona Mortgage Specialists. “It’s also a chance for us to identify objectives and determine how we can get the buyer to where they want to be.” Pre-qualification applications are available online but can also often be completed over the phone or in person. Based on the information provided, an estimated mortgage amount will be generated and provided to the buyer.

Pre-approval The pre-approval process is more involved, taking the loan process much further by requiring that buyers provide financial items such as W-2s, paystubs and information regarding any gifted funds. In addition, tax returns, bank statements and other supporting documents will be scrutinized. Sometimes things are uncovered in the pre-approval process that may cause an issue with the loan.

everal aspects of today’s active adult communities may be a surprise to prospective buyers, who are primarily Baby Boomers. Here are five factoids, features or advantages related to active adult communities that you may not have realized:

Not everyone who lives in an active adult community is retired — or even semi-retired — and not all residents fit into a singular demographic. “Many of our buyers still work, while many are retired,” said Steve Soriano, executive vice president of Robson Communities, which offers two active adult communities in the Phoenix area — PebbleCreek in Goodyear and Robson Ranch Arizona in the Casa Grande area. “Some use Robson Ranch as a primary residence, while others maintain their residences back East or in California. Some are single, some are married. They come from all different economic strata. All these people from different geographical and economic backgrounds come together and make the community special.” “Many [active adult community] residents are not retired, but rather continue to work outside of the home in full-time positions,” agreed Andy Pedersen, group vice president of marketing and merchandising for K. Hovnanian Homes in Arizona, California and Texas. K. Hovnanian’s Four Seasons at The Manor is located in the last remaining neighborhood to be built within Sun City, Arizona, Pedersen said. “This is K. Hovnanian’s first active adult community in Arizona,” he said. The company builds Four Seasons communities in nine other states as well.

It’s no surprise that active adult homebuyers continue to be younger, more active and more inclined to work longer, noted Bridjette Shelfo, general sales manager for PulteGroup’s Arizona Division, which has developed three Del Webb active adult communities in metro Phoenix: Sun City Anthem in Florence, Sun City Festival in Buckeye and Lone Tree in Chandler. “The notion of seeking an active adult lifestyle while still working has become more of the norm,” she said.

Today’s communities for active adults are often integrated into larger, all-ages communities. Victory at Verrado in Buckeye, Encore at Eastmark in Mesa, CantaMia in Estrella in Goodyear and Anthem at Merrill Ranch in Florence are four examples of active adult communities that are part of broader all-ages communities.

“For example, borrowers may not be aware that unreimbursed employee expenses on the Schedule A of a tax return needs to be subtracted from the monthly income,” Stallings said. “This could change a borrower’s debt-to-income ratio and qualification for the loan.”

ou’ve probably waited months for your new home to be finished and now the big day is almost here. But first, you need to take care of the final walk-through, a big milestone in the home-buying process that usually takes place just days before closing. It’s not only an opportunity for buyers to become familiarized with the home, it’s also a chance to make sure everything is functioning properly and is move-in-ready. What to expect “During the final walk-through — or what Robson Communities refers to as the ‘buyer orientation’ — our goal is to deliver a zero-defect home,� said Chris Harrison, senior vice president of construction for Robson Communities. “It’s not intended to be an inspection because we expect to deliver a completed home.� During the buyer orientation, a Robson customer care representative will review the home-care guide and the warranty and maintenance requirements as well as demonstrate and assure that the larger items like the HVAC unit, sound systems, garage door and other mechanics of the home are working properly. “If there is something that needs to be addressed like a drop of paint or a scuff on the wall, our team can usually fix those items on the spot,� Harrison said. “It’s common for our buyers to close on the home that very same day.� At PulteGroup’s final walk-through — known as the ‘build quality celebration’ — internal quality control checks and home verification have already occurred that

he question is: what makes the Northeast Valley (including Northeast Phoenix, Scottsdale, Cave Creek and Carefree) so appealing to both builders and buyers? The answer is: A combination of stunning views, dark skies, large lot sizes, good schools and gorgeous golf courses, plus proximity to restaurants, entertainment, freeways and much more. Lifestyle and luxuries Indeed, Kevin Rosinski, division vice president of operations for Toll Brothers, said that lifestyle has a lot to do with it. “At Toll Brothers, we build homes, but we sell lifestyles,” he said. “Northeast Valley living is second to none. I credit the municipalities for having a vision for the area and for working with builders to preserve the desert without denying people the opportunity to live there.” Rosinski cites zoning and planning ordinances for giving the Northeast Valley its distinct look and feel. Smart, effective regulations — e.g., space requirements between homes, the need for view and wildlife corridors, setback requirements, dark sky ordinances and
more — differentiate communities in the Northeast Valley. “The way things are designed, you can live in the area with all the luxuries and conveniences, but still feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere,” Rosinski commented. “Living here feels like a retreat.” Higher price tag Of course, the Northeast Valley lifestyle doesn’t come without a cost. Generally

speaking, home prices in the area are higher than many other parts of metropolitan Phoenix. “Available land in the Northeast Valley is more scarce and the cost of land is what typically drives home prices,” noted Jamie McAndrew, Phoenix division vice
president of sales for Meritage Homes, which has been building in the Northeast Valley for the last 20 years. Despite a higher price tag, buyers are scooping up the homes. “Sales and price per square-foot show that people really want to live in the Northeast Valley and they’ll stretch themselves to afford it,” McAndrew shared. “People are willing to pay for the amenities, larger lots and the privacy that comes with living in a less populated area.” Scenery and skies McAndrew agrees that the dark skies of the Northeast Valley definitely draws buyers. “You can see the stars at night,” he said. Beyond that, he references the topography as another key selling point. “Not all desert is created equal and the Northeast Valley is gorgeous desert,” he said. “The mountain views, giant saguaros, desert critters and terrain drive

APS and SRP: Power to the people Utilities have different service areas, ownership structures, pay plans ;OPURZ[VJR
)` +H]PK 4 )YV^U Editor’s note: Many new-home buyers are new to the Valley, while many others have lived here for years. Either way, you may have wondered about why various areas of the Valley are served from a utility perspective by either Arizona Public Service (APS) or Salt River Project (SRP). For example, parts of one Valley town can be serviced by one of the companies; other areas of the same town can have service by the other utility provider. If you’re like us, we wondered ‘how’d that happen?’ With apologies to the late Paul Harvey, now you’ll now (at least some of‌) the rest of the story.
S
o you’re ready to purchase your new home and the question about your utilities comes up: is this in SRP or APS territory? Two of the country’s largest utilities, Arizona Public Service (APS) and Salt River Project (SRP), provide electric power to almost all Valley homes. While offering some similar customer services, APS and SRP are very different in their histories, service areas and other features. A short history lesson SRP: Salt River Project was established in 1903 by Valley pioneers who had fought for the National Reclamation Act of 1902, 10 years before Arizona became the 48th state. That seminal legislation made today’s Valley area possible. “These ranchers, farmers, engineers and business people were concerned with the long-term viability of the Valley and established the nation’s first multipurpose reclamation project authorized under the Act,� said Jeff Lane, spokesman for SRP. Today, the community-based not-forprofit public power utility is the largest provider of electricity in the greater Phoenix metropolitan area and the nation’s third-largest public power utility with more than a million customers in a 2,900-square-mile service area spanning three Arizona counties, including most of metropolitan Phoenix. SRP also is the metroplex’s largest supplier of water, delivering about 800,000 acrefeet annually to municipal, urban and agricultural water users in the Valley. APS: APS can trace its founding even earlier, as the company predecessor was
formed on April 29, 1886, when the Phoenix City Council granted a gas and electric franchise to Hutchlon Ohnick (born Hachiro Onuki) for his Phoenix Illuminating Gas and Electric Company, said Jeff Guldner, senior vice president of public policy for APS. Throughout the early 1900s, small utilities also began serving communities across Arizona. In 1920, Central Arizona Light and Power Company (CALAPCO) acquired Pacific Gas and Electric Company, which is not related to today’s California utility. CALAPCO included service to Valley cities such as Buckeye, Chandler, Gilbert, Tempe, Peoria, Glendale and Scottsdale as well as Northern Arizona. Utilities in Globe, Miami, Superior, Casa Grande Valley, Bisbee, Douglas and Yuma formed the Arizona Edison Company.

In 1955, SRP and APS signed the SRP-APS Territorial Agreement which was based on a 1928 contract defining the Valley areas where each utility would deliver power. That agreement clarified boundary locations changed by population growth since 1928. Later in 1955, SRP and APS signed the Power Coordination Agreement which emphasized cooperation between the two utilities and began joint system-planning operations. In this way, duplicate lines and poles are eliminated, Guldner said. “Because of their different histories, APS began serving the urban areas, while SRP was at first agricultural in nature,� he said. “Over time, this has shifted, as towns have become larger cities. For example, today APS serves the original two square-miles of downtown Chandler, with SRP serving the remainder of the city which has annexed much of the former agricultural land over the years.� What’s the difference? SRP is a public power utility governed by its own publicly elected board of
directors, while APS is an investorowned utility. SRP customers’ electric prices are determined by SRP’s publicly elected board of directors, while APS prices are set by the Arizona Corporation Commission which oversees investorowned utilities in the state. SRP also serves water, while APS is strictly an electric utility. SRP delivers water to agricultural, urban and municipal water users in a service area covering more than 375 square miles; the company also has management responsibilities for a 13,000-square-mile watershed. In addition, SRP’s primary electric service territory is located in the greater Phoenix metropolitan area, while APS serves electric customers statewide. SRP and APS have proprietary generation sites but also share power facilities such as the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station and the Navajo and Four Corners generating stations. Operated by APS, Palo Verde is owned by seven utilities, including Arizona Public Service (with 29.1 percent ownership) and Salt River Project (with 17.49 percent).
—Jeff Guldner, APS
The managements of CALAPCO and Arizona Edison decided to combine operations and the proposal to merge was unanimously approved by the stockholders in December 1951. The formation of Arizona Public Service Company followed on March 1, 1952. Following further transformations, in 1987, APS’s parent company became Pinnacle West Capital Corporation. Today, APS serves nearly 1.2 million customers in 11 of the state’s 15 counties, with nearly 6,400 megawatts of generating capacity delivered through 34,000 miles of lines.
THE LOCATION YOU WANT. THE LIFESTYLE YOU DREAM OF.
Which serves where? After receiving operational control of water and power facilities in 1917 from the federal government, SRP was authorized by Maricopa County to form the Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District as a political subdivision of the state of Arizona.

Accessory (RV) garages King-size garages gaining ground with buyers )` 2YPZ[PUL )\YUL[[
F
or those with big toys — think dirt bikes, quads, utility-terrain vehicles (UTVs), boats, recreational vehicles and more — accessory garages, often called RV garages, are just what the proverbial new-home doctor ordered. Until fairly recently, accessory garages were limited to communities without homeowner associations (HOAs), where lot sizes afforded enough space to build the structures and still meet setback requirements. Older homes and custom new-builds on larger lots were the most likely to feature these super-sized garages. Seeing an opportunity to attract a new category of homebuyers, newhome builders began adding the garages in select communities. Buyer response has been positive, particularly among Arizona’s outdoorsy set.
Broad buyer profile So what’s the typical buyer profile? It turns out it’s a pretty broad one, ranging from families with young children, to RVing retirees and everything inbetween. The most common denominator is an interest in outdoor activities and ownership of at least one motorized recreational toy. Jamie McAndrew, Phoenix division vice president of sales for Meritage Homes, cites easy access to outdoor leisure spots — like Lake Pleasant in the Northwest Valley — as draws for many buyers. “The west side of town is starving for the accessory garage feature,� he said. “There is so much to do in terms of outdoor activities — lakes, dirt bike trails and a lot of people with motorhomes. The garages are especially appealing to those who don’t want the hassle and expense of storing their stuff offsite. Being able to work on their toys at home is another selling point.� Relatively new ground Catering to this pool of buyers is relatively new ground for new-home builders. Fulton Homes currently offers accessory garages in two of its East
Valley communities. According to Dennis Webb, the company’s vice president of operations, the trend comes on the heels of more than two decades in which threeand four-car garages were all the rage. “Three-car garages were popular for about 25 years, then came the four-car garage,� Webb said. “Fulton Homes got into the RV garage category about three years ago.� Large lots needed Availability of accessory garages remains limited. In addition to being a relatively new concept in the new-home market, space and zoning requirements play a role. Bob Thompson, sales manager for Taylor Morrison, said that larger home lots are needed to accommodate the garages whether they are attached to the home or built as a separate structure. “You need a minimum of about an 18,000-square-foot lot,� Thompson explained. “We’re building the garages on homesites ranging from that size all the way up to one acre.� To put that into perspective, typical lots for new homes that do not offer accessory garages generally average in the neighborhood of around 10,000 square-feet.
Lots of options As with most things, the cost, style, size and special options offered for accessory garages varies from builder to builder. Taylor Morrison’s accessory garages, which start at around $35,000 and average about 720 square-feet, are free-standing structures placed toward the rear of the lot or off to the side, depending on the individual homesite. Accessory garages by Fulton Homes and Meritage Homes are attached to the house. Both builders offer garages as large as 1,000-square-feet, which McAndrew says is big enough to fit a full-size batting cage. Some of the options and special features builders offer for accessory garages include air conditioning, bathrooms, kitchenettes, plumbing for sinks and hose bibs, wider and taller doors, rear doors, utility hookups and even on-site dumping to drain a recreational vehicle’s blackwater and greywater directly into the home’s sewer system. Through an exclusive collaboration with Southwest Gas, Fulton Homes is the only new-home builder in the state offering a compressed natural gas (CNG) filling station option. “It’s the same gas that’s used for gas grills, fireplaces and ranges,� Webb said. “CNG is less expensive than gasoline, burns cleaner and is easier on the engine. Having a filling station in your garage means you never have to go to the gas station.�

ou are moved in and loving your brand-new home. You’ve got new air conditioning units, a new garage door, new appliances — new everything. Most likely, nothing will break down or go on the fritz for quite a while — however, what happens if the dishwasher dies or the concrete in the driveway cracks? Safety nets The good news? Warranties offer a safety net to homeowners who encounter an unexpected hiccup in their home. Depending on what it is that has gone wrong, the feature, finish or appliance is typically covered for at least a year by the builder and/or the manufacturer. For items such as a roof, foundation or termites, the warranty can extend even further. But once those initial warranties expire, what then? Understanding home warranties Prior to the time that builder and manufacturer warranties are scheduled to expire, experts recommend that you investigate and consider purchasing a home warranty policy on your own.

“When my clients are purchasing a resale property, I always recommend that they get a home warranty,� said Sammy Glassman, an associate broker with HomeSmart. “On a new-home purchase, I give my clients the information upfront and tell them to expect to do something within the year.� Warranty or insurance? It’s important to know the differences between home warranties and homeowners insurance. While these might sound like similar types of coverage, they are quite different. “If you have a fire, a burst pipe, if somebody vandalizes your home —
those things would be covered by your homeowners insurance,� said Catherine O’Neil, ombudsman for the Arizona Department of Insurance. “The homeowners policy doesn’t cover normal breakdown from wear and tear.� Finding a policy Finding a home warranty is relatively simple. “If you use a real estate agent, ask for a recommendation,� O’Neil said. “Talk to friends and family who have policies. You can also call our consumer affairs division and we can provide some information about service companies and home warranty contracts.�

Unlike pre-qualification, pre-approval requires a credit check — which is typically good for 90 days — along with a complete review of all financial documentation. All of this is then submitted to the lender’s underwriter who will do a final review before a pre-approval can be issued. Generally, a prospective buyer can expect it to take approximately 24 to 72 hours for the review and pre-approval notification. “During the pre-approval process, all of the documentation is verified so the whole picture is clear,” said Allen Studebaker, a realtor with HomeSmart Elite. The bottom line Industry experts recommend that prior to shopping for a new home, serious buyers should have an informative discussion with a lender to learn about loan benefits and identify any potential issues. They should also undergo a mortgage planning session so there is a clear picture of their financial parameters, including any financial restrictions.

a lot of buyers. The roads aren’t on as much of a grid and there are bends and dips in the roads. It definitely makes for more scenic drives.” Architecture and amenities “The amenities — restaurants, convenience stores, shops and gas stations — are all right there, but they’re not on the curb,” Rosinski (of Toll Brothers) said. said. “The architecture blends more with the natural desert and the open space around establishments keeps things less congested.” McAndrew (of Meritage Homes) expanded on the convenience factor, noting that the Loop 101 ensures easy access to shopping, dining and top-rated healthcare. “People who live really far north aren’t missing anything,” McAndrew said. “They still have everything, they’re just not right in the middle of the hustle and bustle.” The privacy factor The fact that these communities generally can’t be spotted from main roads isn’t a matter of happenstance. “More and more people are looking for bigger home-sites and they generally want the exclusivity and privacy that comes with making these communities gated,” Rosinski said. “Keeping the homes set back from high-traffic roadways is an attractive feature.” Each of the eight Toll Brothers communities currently in development in the Northeast Valley is gated. While the builder has communities under construction in other parts of the Valley, the Northeast Valley is clearly a focal point. Similarly, Meritage Homes builds throughout the greater Phoenix area, but notes that its homes in the Northeast Valley are distinguished by their larger lots and upgraded finishes.

“Referrals from Verrado kicked off the sales in Victory,� said Nick Taratsas, senior vice president and general manager for DMB Associates, which developed the master-planned communities of Eastmark and Verrado as well as the active adult community of Victory at Verrado. “Our residents want their parents and families to be close by and their parents want to be near their grandchildren and still have a place of their own,� he said. “Many of our [Victory] buyers love that they are moving to a growing town where there’s a downtown with active restaurants.� “It’s nice that [residents] can have the children and grandchildren live just down the road in one of many all-age sections of both Eastmark and Estrella,� said Chris Haines, division president of the Arizona

Builders of homes in active adult communities often embrace the concept of ‘universal design’. Universal design involves designing spaces so that they can be used by the widest range of people possible including those who are older and/or mobility-challenged in some way. Maracay Homes, one of four homebuilders at Victory at Verrado (the others are CalAtlantic, Lennar and
T.W. Lewis by David Weekly Homes), relies on universal design principles. “The Freedom Collection is based on universal design and is adaptable to active adult homeowners who may be concerned about livability as they age in place,� said Linda Clements, Maracay’s sales manager and associate broker. For example, the homes include air returns mounted low on the walls instead of the ceiling for ease in changing air filters, wider doorways and hallways, and no-step thresholds at the entry and garage, Clements said.

Active adult communities are rapidly becoming desired destinations rather than locations associated only with older people near the end-stages of life. “We set out to deliver something buyers and residents would be excited about,” Taratsas said. “We wanted to create something that people can’t wait to get the privilege to use.” Like being tall enough to ride the best rides at an amusement park, “you have to reach the age of 55 to be able to enjoy all of the amenities Victory has to offer,” he added.

While very popular, golf courses are not necessarily the most coveted amenity in some active adult communities. However, most residents enjoy the expansive greenery of a golf course and many still have an abundant affection for the game. Indeed, the majority of active adult communities include (or will include) a golf course or are located in close proximity to a municipal or private course, but most of the developers and builders’ representatives we spoke to didn’t mention golf as one of residents’ leading favorite activities. Instead, they focused on oneof-a-kind views, hiking and walking trails, clubs, organized activities and fitness opportunities. “Every community seems to have a favorite event or activity,” Shelfo (of PulteGroup) said. “One of the most popular activities at Sun City Anthem at Merrill Ranch, for example, are the Trivia Nights, which allow residents from various neighborhoods to join in a friendly competition against other neighborhoods.” Pickleball is also hugely popular, she said, as are monthly matinee movies at the union

center, bus trips to professional sporting events and car shows or casino trips. “Our team has been getting great feedback on Victory’s vineyard and olive groves located at the Victory Club (that opens to the public Feb. 6 with a restaurant and spa),” Taratsas said. “Not only do people want to know where their food comes from, they want to be a part of making it. We are excited to be planning wine presses and olive harvests where Victory residents can be a part of the action.” The championship golf course at Victory is scheduled to open in early 2017; in the meantime, a golf playground is already open where residents can practice chipping, putting and navigating sand-traps. Meanwhile, Robson Communities’ residents are interested in activities as diverse as model airplane flying, the community television station, hiking,
biking and pickleball, Soriano said. At CantaMia, Haines (of AV Homes) said that in addition to a fitness center, art studio, billiards room and bocce ball, pickleball and tennis courts, residents enjoy the community’s outdoor succulent garden, fire-pits, circuit training path, horseshoes and the dog park “for our furry residents.”
