Remodeling?

You may have to ask ‘please’

W

hen you own a home, it’s your house, and you can do what you want, whether it’s remodeling a kitchen or putting on a deck, right?

Not always. Homeowners do not have to contend with a landlord but they may have to get the nod from local officials before proceeding on certain projects.

And, according to a recent survey of 150 firms, by Remodeling, a trade magazine, it’s not always easy—or possible—to secure a building permit.

Exploring whether a project is permissible is a crucial first step, and the process can even help homeowners select a contractor, says David Pekel, interim CEO of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry.

Here’s a permit primer:

Securing a permit is usually the remodeling firm’s responsibility.

Only about five percent of remodelers surveyed said they rely on homeowners or to get the permit.

“Sometimes a licensed

Understanding rules that govern remodeling projects can save time and money contractor is building according to specs that the owner has,” says Pekel, and the owner would seek the permit.

Otherwise, Pekel says, it “could be a red flag” for a contractor to ask the owner, because it could mean that the firm doesn’t have the right credentialing to pull a permit in your municipality.

Working knowledge of local

zoning boosts chances of approval.

The approval process isn’t always black and white. An addition to the exterior of a home, for example, might require an aesthetic review in order to gain approval. A remodeling firm that possesses knowledge of a local authority‘s prior rulings will have an edge on what designs pass muster.

And, with experience with local rules, a remodeler can help homeowners craft realistic plans in line with expectations.

How you ask matters.

Permit applications should include all the required elements, and owners with good neighborly relations should consider seeking their help to steer plans for approval. In some cases, those neighbors may be asked to sign off on variations from the rules.

5 Myths All New Homeowners Fall For Myth #1: Mowing Grass Extra Short Means Mowing Less Often Grass blades collect sunlight. Cut them too short and they can’t soak up enough to survive, which makes for brown, patchy grass and weeds galore.

Myth #2: If My Water Main Springs a Leak, The PUD Will Cover It Nope. The city fixes the public water lines from the road to your property, but you’re responsible for the main that runs from your property line to your home.

Myth #3: When The Pipes Clog, Pour In a Bottle of Drain Cleaner While drain cleaners are quick and convenient, they can cause more (and bigger) problems than they fix. They don’t typically remove the entire clog, making it more likely to recur — and their caustic chemicals can wear away the insides of the pipes, causing leaks.

Myth #4: My Neighbor's Tree Fell In My Yard, So They'll Pay For It Well, that depends. Your first step, no matter what, is to call your insurance company. They’ll restore your property and then decide whether to pursue the neighbor for reimbursement.

Myth #5: I'll Save Time And Money By Reroofing Over Old Shingles But it’s not wise. If there’s damage to your roof, get a new roof. Period.

Mid-sized cities flip over home sales

B

uying an inexpensive, unrestored house then spending money to fix it up and unload the property at a premium to pocket gains sounds like a plausible deal driven by hard work, upfront funds and a little luck. The property location wouldn’t seem like a major factor.

But think again.

Sioux Falls, South Dakota, leads the nation for 2018 in Best Places to Flip Houses, according to a new survey from online personal finance company WalletHub. The moderate-sized Midwestern city joins several other smaller metro areas including Fort Wayne, Indiana; Missoula, Montana; and Des Moines, Iowa; in the top 10.

Columbia and Charleston, South Carolina, placed 20th and 21st, with Columbia scoring best on lower renovation and remodeling costs and Charleston benefiting on higher quality of life. Columbus, Georgia, places at the top of a third category, market potential.

Meanwhile, Bridgeport, Connecticut, finished 172 (last) in the findings along with New York, Oakland, San Francisco and Boston in the bottom 10.

WalletHub also points out that Pittsburgh ranks highest in average return on investment at 145.45 percent or 24.5 times higher than October 5, 2018

in Montgomery, Alabama—lowest at 5.93 percent. Looked at another way, a $100,000 investment would reap $245,450 in Pittsburgh and $105,930 in Montgomery.

All the same, expect a moderate payoff no matter the locale, the Internet researcher says.

“Any experienced home flipper would caution you that transforming a fixer-upper into a profitable property is a difficult process,” according to WalletHub. “In other words, don’t get your hands dirty until you’ve learned a thing or two about real estate, construction and how much damage your project could do to your wallet.”

The average nationwide gross profit—which doesn’t include renovation costs—works out to $68,143, the firm says. But it also warns, “Breathing new life into a low-cost property won’t necessarily return your full investment and allow you to pocket another $68,143.”

WalletHub has another piece of advice: “According to RealtyTrac, the current homeownership rate is 64.2 percent (down from a high of 69.20 percent in 2004). That may translate to fewer potential buyers off the bat, depending on the location of your property.”

The information firm says it

scanned over 170 U.S. cities across 27 statistics, including median purchase price, average full home remodeling costs and a housing-market health index.

By category, Mobile, Alabama, posts the lowest median purchase price at $50,000, compared with $730,000 in San Jose. Meanwhile, Memphis reports the highest share of home flips, 12.76 percent, while Albuquerque, New Mexico, was lowest at 1.35 percent. Also Little Rock, Arkansas, has the lowest average home remodeling costs at $75,888 which is five times lower than Atlanta at $375,734.

Also Charleston has the most real-estate agents per 100,000 residents at 184, while Warwick and Providence, both in Rhode Island, tied for the fewest at 9.

A separate report from Attom Data Solutions found that 207,088 homes and condos were flipped last year. That’s up 1 percent from 2016 to an 11 year high, according to an article in the Washington Post. The flipped homes in 2017 made up 5.9 percent of all house sales (nearly 3 of every 50), the highest percent since 2013, says Irvine, California-based Attom Data Solutions.

Of metro areas with 1 million or more people, Memphis lead in home flipping rate last year at 12.8 percent of all sales followed

by Las Vegas at 9.1 percent; Tampa-St. Petersburg, 9 percent; Birmingham, 8.6 percent; and Phoenix, 8.5 percent. The District of Columbia region was 6.1 percent of all sales, up 3 from 2016.
