How many houses should a buyer see?

D

ear Edith: The first day my husband and I were out looking at houses, we saw a home that we loved but felt uncomfortable making an offer because we had not seen many houses.

How many houses should we look at before making a decision? — C. Answer: Same as the number of guys you dated before choosing your husband.

EDITH But seriLANK ously, your agent, if you’re using one, is something along the lines of a matchmaker. He or she is familiar with what’s on the market and experienced in judging what’s likely to suit you.

My husband, who was a Realtor, was an excellent judge and never had to show buyers many houses.

He told his agents, though, not to take buyers to the property that might be the right one first.

“Set up three appointments that meet their specifications,” he’d tell them, “but don’t show them the most likely place first. Make it second. And then, even if they say they’d like to make an offer on that one, try to get them to view the third place anyhow.

That reassures them.”

Right now, the real estate market is lively in most places, and it’s a good idea to act promptly once you find the house that feels right.

Young people’s first attempts at house hunting often trigger misguided advice from grandparents who remember what things used to be like.

“Somebody’s telling you all wrong, saying you should buy with such a small down payment. You tell that husband of yours to wait till you’ve saved up some more money,” says a grandparent with memories of the Great Depression.

Those solid old-fashioned virtues of denial and thrift, however, don’t always reward today’s home buyer. In some areas, the house you want to buy would keep going up in price faster than you could accumulate a larger down payment. Meanwhile, you would lose out on tax benefits, and your rent might be raised, too.

If you’ve found the place that speaks to you, go for it — and promptly.

Reverse Mortgage

Mrs. Lank: Do you have any opinion about whether a reverse mortgage is a good idea? We want to stay in our longtime home, and the idea of getting some cash is tempting. Is this a type of scam? — S.N. Answer: Not at all.

Years ago, when reverse mortgages were first offered, there were some problems, but they’ve been taken care of long since.

For certain older homeowners, they’re just right.

A reverse mortgage allows you to draw on the equity of your paid-up home without having to sell it.

You can receive income and remain in the property.

They’re called “reverse” because instead of making a payment every month, you receive a check. The mortgage builds up as a gradual debt. Or you may

choose instead to receive a single large check immediately. Any existing mortgage, if it’s not too big, will be paid off.

Just as with any mortgage, you remain the owner of your home. As years pass, it’s even possible for the debt to become more than the property is worth. The borrower can still remain, and usually a remaining spouse can after a death.

The most popular reverse mortgages are insured by the federal government. They’re called home equity mortgage conversion loans, and they’re administered by the Federal Housing Administration, the same agency that handles ordinary FHA loans. At least one borrower must be 62 or older. Owners must have enough income to handle property taxes and homeowners insurance, which will still be their responsibility.

Yes, there are drawbacks, and a reverse mortgage is not for everyone. The debt keeps building up, including fees, with less left for your eventual heirs.

When you die or leave the house permanently, the mortgage debt must be repaid. If selling doesn’t bring enough to cover the mortgage, you’ll have been carrying FHA insurance to pay the difference. But until then, you cannot be forced to sell.

Reverse mortgages are handled by many regular lenders in your area.

How to keep varmints away ‌ Q uestion: Wild animals have been coming around our neighborhood at night and causing a lot of trouble. We think it’s raccoons, but we have not seen them. What can we do to keep them out of our yard?

Answer: Urban wildlife comes in all sorts of species and sizes. Animals that we tend to think of as only being found in rural areas or forest preserves are found in most towns. Older, more mature areas naturally have bigger trees and larger areas of plantings that feed and house wildlife.

Raccoons, skunks, rats and opossums have easily adapted to the urban life near humans because they are JEFF omnivorous and nocturnal.

RUGG Omnivorous animals eat just about anything that is made from plant or animal matter, kind of like most teenagers I know. Nocturnal animals are most active at night, also kind of like teenagers.

Being omnivorous is an advantage because humans leave such varied trash.

To supplement a natural diet of worms, insects and other small animals, they can eat hamburgers, pork chops and roast chicken. A natural inclination to eat ripening berries and tender shoots is easily transferred to melon rinds and garden vegetables. And they don’t care whether they encounter this new exotic food supply fresh in the garden or they find it rotting in the garbage can.

Being nocturnal’s biggest benefit is that they don’t have too much contact with people. Also, most pets are kept indoors for the night. Having little contact with people means a much better chance of survival.

Herbivorous animals have diets almost entirely restricted to plant matter.

Rabbits, mice, squirrels, chipmunks, woodchucks and deer are all herbivores that live within the city limits of nearly every town in the country. They benefit by having a wider variety of foods, but the smaller ones must be careful of the increased number of predators, mostly cats. The smaller an herbivore is the likelier it is to succeed, because it requires a smaller territory (less contact with people) and can fit into hidden spaces in the urban environment.

There are four methods to stopping urban wildlife: making living conditions

HERE’S HOW

Install drywall over old paneling

D

ear James: My house has old paneling with vertical grooves, and I want to cover it with drywall and paint it. I am not sure how to handle fitting the wood trim around the doors and windows. Do you have any tips? — Ronald D. Dear Ronald: Installing drywall over old paneling is one method to improve the appearance of a room.

As you noted, it can be a difficult task JAMES to extend all DULLEY the window and door trim to fit over the thicker wall with the drywall attached, but it can certainly be done.

Before you finalize your decision to add the drywall, consider just painting the old paneling. It might not sound attractive, but it actually can be. The vertical grooves in the paneling can create an interesting pattern and will simulate

wallpaper to a degree.

Give it a try first on the smallest wall in the room.

Thoroughly scrub down the paneling with soap and water. Lightly sand the surface with medium-grit sandpaper or a sanding block.

Roll on a coat of primer and then paint in the color of your choice. Move the furniture back into place, hang any paintings and drapes and see how it looks. I think you might be pleasantly surprised.

If you still want to add drywall over the paneling, you will first have to remove all the window and door trim and the baseboards. Pry them off carefully. Some of the wood trim may be finger-jointed, which can be quite fragile.

If you are having difficulty, you may just choose to install all new wood trim and quickly rip off the old.

Once all the trim is removed, you will be ready to install the drywall. Unless

there are some space constraints, use drywall that is 1/2 inch or 5/8 inch thick.

It is stronger and easier to work with than thinner drywall. It also is available in stretcher sizes in case your walls are higher than 8 feet. Using larger stretcher sheets eliminates the need for an extra narrow strip and drywall joint.

You will have to extend the window and door jambs out to the outer surface of the new drywall. Use lumber with a high-quality finish and fit it over the jamb to create the appearance you desire. You may choose to offset it to the side a bit to create more window detailing. Size the extension strips so they will extend out about 1/32 inch beyond the drywall. This makes it easier to fit the finishing trim over the drywall.

Depending upon the rigidity of the paneling, you may be able to glue the drywall to the pan-

eling instead of nailing it through the paneling to the wall studs. There are many easy-to-apply construction adhesives available at most home improvement stores. If you have any concerns about the flatness of the paneling, use nails or screws to apply it.

Check your local building codes about the maximum distance (gap) between the electrical box in the wall and the wall surface. If it will be too large, you can move the electrical box outward or install a box extension ring.

Because you will be covering the wall with drywall, you can cut away a section of the paneling to gain greater access to the electrical boxes. Don’t forget to switch off the circuit breakers first.

Make your space fit for a king or queen

P

erhaps you remember the scene in the “Sex and the City” movie where Mr. Big shows Carrie the wardrobe and dressing JOSEPH room of PUBILLONES their penthouse.

Carry nearly faints and says, “Darling, I’m home!”

I am one of those people who place a big emphasis on closets and dressing

rooms and how they are fitted. A tricked-out closet can make anyone feel quite special ... almost like a king or queen. Here are some tips that will make your heavenly wardrobe dreams come true.

For a dressing room, you need a minimum space of 50 square feet, enough to fit two L-shaped wardrobes with space to move around comfortably, but

really, the sky is the limit.

Some homeowners are willing to give up an under-used bedroom as a new wardrobe and dressing room. If the space is larger, one can really indulge and integrate extra features such as a threepanel mirror with room for all sorts of cubbies and storage — maybe even an Please see QUEEN, Page H12

ASK ANGIE’S LIST

Do I need a bathroom exhaust fan?

T

he humble bathroom exhaust fan might not occupy your mind very often, except maybe when you flip the switch by accident while fumbling around for PAUL F.P. the lights. But an POGUE exhaust fan plays a vital role in your bathroom, and it sometimes requires attention and care.

What are the benefits of a fan?

The fan provides multiple benefits to your bathroom. First up, and most obviously, it improves air quality and quickly removes unpleasant odors. By removing moisture from the air after a bath or shower, it also works to prevent mold and mildew. This also protects your fixtures, paint and wall boards—all of which suffer damage over the long term from excess air moisture.

An exhaust fan needs to vent the air outdoors. If it feeds into an attic, ridge vent, or crawlspace, the moist air is out of sight but not out of mind. Mold can grow undetected if the moisture remains in an indoor enclosed space. Your installer will have several options for venting out air, including wall mounts that vent the air directly outside or ceiling-mounted fans that send the air out through roofs or ducts. Ceiling mounts provide the most efficient operation, since they remove hot, damp air as it rises.

Bathroom exhaust fans can include extras such as lights or humidity sensors.

How should i install an exhaust fan?

If you’d like to add a new exhaust fan, most handymen and electricians can handle this work. Installing a bathroom exhaust fan usually takes three to four hours and costs between $165 and $350. It can take longer and cost more if it’s a first-floor installation on a multi-level home, or if you choose an up-

scale silent fan, which can run $200 on its own. Some states require a licensed electrician to do this kind of work. If you hire an electrician, you may also need to hire a handyman or other provider to patch up drywall or do other finishing work.

You’ll pay more for a brandnew installation as compared to a replacement, which won’t involve cutting new holes or running connections to ducts.

How to care for an exhaust fan Once your exhaust fan is installed, don’t just forget about it.

Dirt on the fan can slow down the works and shorten its usable lifespan. In rare occasions, a lint-filled exhaust fan can pose a fire hazard.

Plus, a dirty vent just doesn’t look nice. Regularly dust the outside cover and vents, and occasionally remove the cover and clean out

accumulated dirt and debris.

After a bath or shower, try to run the fan for 10 or 15 minutes to draw out all the humidity. You can pay a little extra to add a timer switch to your fan to run it longer, or even a humidistat that automatically turns the fan on and off as the humidity changes.

Avoid fans that turn on and off with the light switch. They often turn off before the fan has time to complete its work,

DREAMSTIME‌

One tip: Try to leave the bathroom door or window open at least a little while the fan is running. This promotes air movement and saves wear and tear on the fan motor.

island.

To calculate the amount of wardrobe and storage solutions you need, start by taking inventory of the quantity and types of garments and other objects you are going to store. Be careful to project — always a little more.

Changing rooms are usually linked to the master bedroom, so they are usually shared. To be practical, think of specific solutions for each user, depending on the type of clothing and accessories they use.

For shirts and jackets, the wardrobe must be a minimum of 24 inches deep and 3 to 3.5 feet high.

For coats and dresses, it must be a minimum of 30 inches deep and needs a 5to 5.5-foot-high bar. You will need to leave 18 inches

Parallel Bars

It is the ideal placement

for large spaces. Opt for a high cabinet with bars at different heights and space for a luggage rack as well as a low cabinet with drawers, shelves and a shoe rack.

Two Corners Are Perfect for an L In small rooms or to optimize a corner of the bedroom, use two cabinets in an L shape of 6 feet long.

Is a U for You?

It is the ideal distribution for rectangular or wide square plans, since it allows you to take advantage of all the partitions. It is also perfect for placing a central island with a shoe rack or drawers.

between shelves. Remember that for each person, you will need at least 4 feet of linear space to hang things.

If you do not have a separate room to use as the dressing room, a corridor between the bathroom and the bedroom (or a large secluded corner of the room) can serve to create a good place to store.

In a narrow and elongated closet, opt for a single wardrobe from floor to ceiling, taking advantage of all the useful meters to save some space for the passage.

Dressing rooms should preferably have cabinets with two parallel fronts, in the form of an L or a U. Try to plan a flexible system of elements that can move, in case you need another type of dressing in the future.

DESIGN RECIPES

10 ways to make your rental property more appealing T

hese days, it is easier than ever to rent out your home. But with the increased popularity also comes increased competition. How can you help your rental property stand out from CATHY the crowd?

HOBBS Those looking to cash in should keep some of these top Design Recipes areas to focus on in mind.

1. Photography. Good quality photography should top your list. In the case of rental properties, potential renters absolutely judge a book by its cover, so you are going to make sure your photographs stand out.

Some photography tips include: Never have people, pets or clutter in photographs.

Don’t take photographs at night.

Be sure to showcase your entire property. Often times if a photograph of a particular space or room is omitted, potential renters may suspect you have something to hide.

2. Bathroom improvements. Consider your rental property to be on the same level as the local inn or bed and breakfast.

Cleanliness should be first and foremost. Beyond this, making bathrooms fresh and appealing should be part of any improvements.

Some affordable fixes include adding additional lighting such as sconces, replacing a toilet and upgrading faucets and fixtures.

3. Kitchen improvements. Many potential renters will likely only be committing to a short time stay. As such, the kitchen may not be fully utilized.

Some essentials include

coat of paint.

7. Clear out the clutter.

Once you place your property onto the market for rent, it becomes a product that will be compared to other products. To appeal to the largest amount of potential renters and keep them coming back again and again, create an oasis for them by clearing out your space of personal items and excess.

8. Neutral palette, bright accents. When looking for colors to use in your space, neutral colors always work best. Colors such as black, white and taupe help to create a soothing environment and serve as the perfect foundation colors. Bright accents will help to perk up your space.

9. Welcome package.

Creating a sense of welcome will help your guests feel special. Some of the most successful rental properties greet guests with a welcome package that may include local foods and wines, as well as DESIGN RECIPES PHOTOS‌ relevant guide books relating to the area.

Simple touches such as artwork, candles and fresh towels can help to make a bathroom feel like a spa.

10. Reviews matter. For many websites, the volume for ways to properly style having a working and clean your rental property.

STYLE AT HOME

My three essentials for holiday decorating

‌W

hether you want to fill your home top to bottom with holiday cheer or add a few festive touches here and there, my advice is the same: Start with a fabulous base. Amazing greenery and show-stealing ribbon are the essential bedrocks of a sensational holiday treatMARY CAROL ment.

GARRITY I was working with a customer this week who was starting fresh with her holiday decor. After taking in all the Christmas pageantry at Nell Hill’s, she asked me where to start to get the most from her budget. Simple! I advised her to invest in garland, picks and ribbon, then add all the rest, like ornaments, in the future. You can decorate with these three alone and your home will look beautiful.

Garland

For years, I was a greenery snob. You would never, ever catch me using faux fir in my holiday decor. Back then, the fakes looked, well, fake. I started to lose my love for real pine boughs about the time it started to destroy my wood furniture, one sap drip at a time. And all those dry needles all over the floor—ugh! Now the faux greenery we carry looks so real you have to touch it to tell—you can’t believe your eyes.

You can use garland all over your home. One of my favorites is looping it up a bannister. This photo, from my book “O Christmas Tree,” shows how I used ropes of garland to dress up the banister at my home in Atchison, Kan. You can snake some garland down the center of your dining table, like we did in a photo

from “O Christmas Tree.” Cut a 6-foot garland in half and use it to decorate your buffet, or thread it through the arms of your dining room chandelier. How do you keep all these strands of garland in place? Cinch them up with zip ties. We go through thousands of zip ties every year. You can find them at any hardware store.

Look for the biggest size you can, then trim the unused edges.

of winter branches. The key to making picks or garland look lifelike is to fluff them out, spreading the branches or needles or berries so they take on the form or patterns they would follow in nature.

Ribbon

I love ribbon. Absolutely and completely. I can’t imagine my home dressed for the holidays without using spools and spools.

Ribbon adds so much texture Picks and softness. We have so many Picks come in all shapes and different types of holiday ribbon sizes, and feature all types of faux greens, berries, flowers and this year, from traditional (a spool of our black watch plaid ribbon is nuts. They have a finished end, going home with me this year) to with the other end left unfinished so you can tuck them into a whimsical to glamorous. vase, behind a piece of art, into a MARY CAROL GARRITY‌ Christmas tree or any other spot This column was adapted from Mary Carol Garrity’s blog at www. you can imagine.

Invest in garland, picks and nellhills.com. She can be reached at ribbon, then add all the rest, like We used wild looking evermarycarol@nellhills.com. green picks to create a bouquet ornaments, in the future.

GRANDE Basically, semi-pro kitchen faucets are attractively styled and offer extra features not normally found in standard kitchen faucets. Some semi-professional kitchen faucet features may include easy-toclean and easy-to-access faucet finishes and surface areas, a powerful multi-function spray head to help with dish, pan and sink cleanups, and a high arching or spring-loaded faucet spout for filling up large pots. Another good thing about semi-pro faucets is they can be installed on most existing or new residential kitchen sinks.

Bottom line: If you’re a home chef or just looking for an easier cleanup, a semi-professional faucet style can be a faucet that works for any kitchen.

2019’s colors of the year: Take your pick

‌T

op paint brands have selected their 2019 colors of the year and, at first glance, they couldn’t be more different. On the one hand, we have an earthy desert tone in Cavern Clay from LAUREN Sherwin-WilWHITE liams. On the other, we have a sophisticated cool gray from Benjamin Moore. So, how do you decide which to use in your own design? These are some of the best and most intriguing options for everything from big commitments to smaller details.

Sherwin-Williams: Cavern Clay Sherwin-Williams describes their color selection as: “Ancient, yet fully alive. Bohemian, yet totally refined.” It is similar to popular terra cotta shades and works well on accent walls or for an entire room. Because Cavern Clay falls between orange and brown, it’s on the warm side of the spectrum and can create a cozy yet energized mood where applied. It’s a great complement to natural materials, Southwestern themes and indoor plants.

If you’re painting a very small room, you might want to steer clear of this shade. It tends to pull the walls closer and may make the room feel confined. It may also stimulate appetite, so if you want it in the kitchen, consider using it on an accent wall Use the colors of the year on your walls or in your furniture and accents to keep your home design rich and fresh. or backsplash.

Benjamin Moore: Metropolitan Benjamin Moore describes Metropolitan as: “Calm, composed and effortlessly sophisticated.” It is a cool, simple gray tone inspired by modern design, neutral trends and the goal of restoration in the home. This color can serve as a backdrop in nearly any room, from the kitchen to the bathroom and especially the bedroom, where we need calm most. You can use it on walls, in

furniture and as linens or rugs.

Consider layering it with other grays for a tone-on-tone look.

Though Metropolitan is extremely versatile, it can seem cold and unfriendly in dark spaces.

Its character is best captured in rooms with lots of natural light.

Behr: Blueprint

According to Behr, “Blueprint creates a space where you can build your own reimagined life.”

It is a rich, moody blue that fits into many design concepts. And

Behr showcases it in palettes of every tone, from monochromatic to earth tones and pastels. This versatility means that it’ll be easier to incorporate Blueprint into your home design without making drastic changes. Use it as an accent wall, for details like furniture and even on your home’s exterior!

On interior walls, Blueprint can be quite dark. If you’re considering painting an entire room, know that this color will make it seem smaller and cozier. You

might desire this for a bedroom or dining room, but perhaps not for a kitchen or living room.

PPG Paints: Night Watch

PPG Paints says their color, Night Watch, “is a rich, luxurious and classic shade of green allowing spaces to emulate the feeling of lush greenery.” You can incorporate it in velvety furniture, in rich decor, or in your linens and rugs. It also works beautifully as an accent wall or as the all-over color in an inti-

mate space like a bedroom, study or dining room.

For an entryway that pops, consider using Night Watch on your front door. Green is a stabilizing color that will anchor your home’s appearance and echo feelings of renewal and calm.
