Make sure your home is both comfortable and energy efficient.

Energy-efficient home trends (BPT) - One of the top trends driving today’s housing market is the demand for energy-efficient homes that don’t sacrifice comfort for quality. If you’re looking to purchase a new home, green features can save money both now and in the future, with numerous earth-friendly benefits. Here’s what is trending for 2015 and beyond. Functional Spaces Homebuyers are looking to get more functionality out of less space and often discover downsizing is a viable option for both young families and empty-nesters. Modular or manufactured homes, like those from Clayton Homes, are gaining popularity. Homebuyers enjoy thoughtful modern designs that maximize space and functionality, plus the waste from building an entire house in a controlled environment is minimal - typically fitting into just two 30-gallon drums or less. ENERGY STAR Many of those on the market for a home are seeking ENERGY STAR certification, meaning the home meets stringent requirements from the Environmental Protection Agency. ENERGY STAR certified homes from Clayton Homes cost less to heat and cool, are quieter, more durable and have better indoor air quality. Learn more at www. claytonhomes.com/energy_star.cfm. Energy savings options available on Clayton Homes include low-e windows, additional insulation and advanced heating and cooling options. Low-E windows Windows are an investment that pays dividends for many years to come. Buyers are demanding at least double-paned options with low emissivity, also known as low-e, advanced window coatings that help retain heat during winter and keep it out during summer. This microscopic layer also blocks damaging ultraviolet sunlight that can discolor carpets and furniture. Effective insulation Homebuyers are asking about extra insulation in homes, including

the walls, roof and flooring. Properly installed insulation that meets or exceeds national code requirements helps better regulate a home’s temperature so the furnace and air conditioner don’t have to work harder than necessary. The result is lower utility costs and a quieter, more comfortable home. Advanced heating and cooling features According to a 2009 RECS Survey conducted by the U.S. Energy Information Administration, space heating accounts for 41.5 percent of the average household’s energy consumption, which is why homebuyers seek atmosphere controlling features that can cut this number dramatically. More efficient and properly sized heating and cooling systems, such as a heat pump, use less energy, which makes the home much more energy efficient throughout. Smart lighting alternatives Homebuyers are demanding energy-efficient options to save money and energy. According to the EPA, CFL light bulbs use less energy than many other types, which makes them a smart option for an energy-efficient home. Tight construction It’s not just what you can see that makes a house green, it’s the process itself that can make a big difference. That’s why tight construction and tight ducts are a must when building a home. Builders must pay close attention to detail by sealing all holes, cracks and seams in ducts and construction assemblies. This helps to eliminate drafts, moisture, dust, pests and pollen, plus boosts comfort while lowering maintenance costs. With today’s advanced technology, homebuyers can reduce their energy use and expenditure with an ENERGY STAR Clayton Home. A wide variety of energy efficient models and options are available and homes can be easily customized to suit a family’s specific needs.

Prospective buyers always eye the kitchen carefully.

Protecting your kitchen investment (BPT) - Kitchens are the heart of the home. It’s where you prepare meals, help your kids with homework and entertain guests. It’s the room in the house where everyone gathers, where memories are made, and, with solid investment, can single-handedly increase the value of your home and help you build more of a nest egg. Even if you’re considering selling your home, all eyes of prospective buyers will inevitably be on the kitchen. “When making investments in your home, the kitchen is unanimously the best place to start,” says Nate Berkus, renowned decorator, designer and artistic advisor for LG Studio appliances. “For me, a great kitchen is one that feels timeless. To accomplish that, reach for what feels classic for the space like subway tiles and stainless steel, and allow the elements that tell your story to come through in the non-permanent fixtures like the furniture, fabrics and details.” Here are Berkus’ five tips for designing a forever kitchen that will sustain its value, whether you’re looking to put your house on the market or simply updating it for your family’s enjoyment: 1. A timeless look: When it comes to making big design decisions in your kitchen, put aside trends and go with timeless and elegant. Reach for what feels classic like white subway tiles, brass and stainless steel appliances - things that will look as good 10 years from now as they do today. The entire LG Studio line of premium, built-in appliances, for example, was designed with a signature look, feel and style that will easily transition with you through the years. 2. Paint: I don’t know why people always grimace when I say to paint wood. It isn’t a cardinal sin, especially in the kitchen. Tearing out cabinets isn’t always an option, but painting, while a bit of work, is one of my favorite things to do. Reach for black.

It sets off all the appliances and makes for a dramatic change. 3. Brighten with lights: I tell my clients this all the time lighting is one of the most important decisions you can make in any room, including the kitchen. I love vintage pendant lights over an island or table. Since lighting can often add to a dated vibe of the space, swapping it out for something more timeless immediately makes the space appear more modernized - perfect for illuminating any potential buyers. 4. The long haul: Making over a kitchen is no small feat. It’s expensive and time consuming. Trust me when I say I get it. So, your best asset is information. Start building that Pinterest board to identify what you like. Once you have that, you can start to attach costs. Mine always starts with what’s permanent like the cabinets, appliances and tiles. These, along with the appropriate team to help you make and install all of it, are your best investments. From there, consider ways that you can have what you want at a price you can live with. I’ve seen the most amazing islands fashioned from unique things like a farm table, or hutches that are free standing on a wall as opposed to extending your cabinets. These can all be ways to get a big look without the big price tag. 5. Consider technology: The home of the future is actually here today. It’s one that is wired for sound, TV and Wi-Fi. Simply put, our kitchen island is command central for more than meal prep. For many of us it’s also the office. So, to add value to this space, don’t undervalue what will make life easier, like outlets that have USB ports in the wall and island, charging docks and TVs. We do so much more in this space than cook. So, to add value, add ways for you be connected ... just not at the dinner table.

Managing money wisely can turn a dream into a reality.

Home buying tips for millennials (BPT) - Owning a home is part of the American Dream, yet standards on income, credit and debt are making it tougher to buy a home than it was 10 years ago. Even though requirements are relaxing, only three out of five borrowers get approved. While stricter standards make it tougher for young families to qualify for a mortgage, millennials said they understand why these standards exist and think the tougher requirements won’t stand in their way of buying a home, according to a new survey commissioned by loanDepot. In fact, millennials today are serious about doing what’s required to get a mortgage. The research surveyed 1,000 millennials who don’t own a home and found 35 percent plan to buy within five years. What’s more, millenials are taking steps now to turn their dreams into a reality by getting their credit in order, paying down debt and saving for a down payment. “Income is a key to opening the doors of homeownership for millennials, and they’re more than committed to it; they’re actively planning for it,” says Anthony Hsieh, chairman and chief executive officer, loanDepot LLC. “Our improving economy is making it practical for millennials who want to own their own homes in a few short years to get ready now. Their strong desire to become homeowners, coupled with the commitment of getting their finances in order, suggests a renewal in first-time buyer demand may be possible if we sustain necessary economic and market conditions.” With their prospects improving as the economy picks up, millennials are forming households faster and making more money compared to a few years ago. One in three millennials said an increase of 15 percent or less in income will be enough to turn them into homebuyers, a significant proposition for the economy. Because mortgage lenders use debt-to-income to evaluate a borrow-

ers’ ability to repay a loan, student debt is a growing burden on millennials interested in financing a home. Unlike medical debt, student debt carries an equal weight to credit card debt. Nearly half of those surveyed said it’s unfair to weigh both types of debt equally. As for the tougher requirements to getting a mortgage, millennials do think the tougher standards guard against risky loans and will help prevent another mortgage crisis. More than half say making it easier to get a mortgage will result in more foreclosures. If you have student debt and want to buy your first home, here are a few ideas and tips to help you prepare: * Lower your debt-to-income ratio (DTI). DTI is your total monthly income as compared to your total monthly debt payments. Most lenders will only lend to you if your DTI is at or below 43 percent. So to lower it, try to increase your income by pursuing a promotion or raise, finding a higher-paying job or taking on part-time work. Decrease your required monthly debt payments by refinancing or consolidating student loans and paying down any credit card balances. * Get your credit score in order. Analyze your credit report before you start the home buying process. Dispute incorrect derogatory information and ensure all three credit-reporting bureaus list all of your positive information. Pay all your bills on time, reduce credit card balances to 30 percent of the credit limit or lower, and don’t open new credit cards if you already have a few. * Save for a down payment. Make a budget for each month before it starts, with a plan for spending and saving, and stick to it. Stash away extra money from bonuses, overtime or financial gifts on your birthday or holidays. Find a roommate to help pay your rent or move into a less-expensive rental. Do freelance or contract work on the side. Sell unneeded stuff on Craigslist.

The Internet offers many ideas on how to spruce up your home.

Design inspiration available online (BPT) - More than 40 percent of homeowners plan to update their homes in the next two years, according to the latest Houzz & Home Study. Of those who plan to remodel, 78 percent cite their motivation as improving the look and feel of the space. “With an increasing amount of home remodeling projects in the works, we’ve also seen more homeowners turning to online resources for design guidance,” says Vicki Frye, marketing communications manager of leading exterior home product manufacturer, Ply Gem. “Social media and digital design tools are changing the way homeowners approach home improvement projects. People are looking to personalize their homes, but are not always sure what they want until they can visualize it. Online resources give them the information they need to turn inspiration into reality.” From quick fixes to complete remodels, the Internet makes it easier than ever to share design ideas, find home improvement inspiration and access customer reviews about local contractors. Ply Gem recommends several digital design resources to help get your home improvement project started: Get inspired - Uncover your home improvement must-haves by searching Pinterest. Websites like Pinterest are a great resource to help you explore and compile current design trends and tips, and organize details for home improvement projects. Connect with others - Use home remodeling and design website, Houzz, to connect with other homeowners, interior designers, contractors and architects. Like Pinterest, Houzz allows you to browse and save photos of home improvement projects, but you can also see the companies and people who worked on the project and ask questions about the products and techniques used.

Stay within budget - Once you have determined a direction for your project, your next step is finding out how much it’s going to cost you. Zillow Digs works with a team of contractors to price what it would cost to replicate each picture. Based on your location, project scale, materials and labor, the estimates give you a starting point for discussions with your contractor. See what’s possible - When you are planning an exterior remodel, it’s great to see what others have done, but it’s even better to know what’s possible for your own home. For instance, you can take a hands-on approach in the planning of your home’s exterior using Ply Gem’s Designed Exterior Studio visualizer tool, available at www.plygem.com. You can upload an image of your home and experiment with new colors and products including windows, siding, stone veneer, shutters, trim, roofing, entry doors and more. The completed design can be emailed to your contractor with a full list of selected products. Make it happen - Now that you have a plan for your dream home, you need to find a reliable contractor. Anyone can say that they can do the job; however this doesn’t mean they have the right qualifications to get it done right. Use sites like Angie’s List for reviews from other homeowners. With the help of Angie’s List, you can quickly find the contractor you need to complete your home improvement project and make your dream home a reality. While the Internet has a lot of good information, it can also have just as much bad information. Seek expert advice from trusted sources like www.plygem.com and be sure to do your research. Before you take a hammer to your home, consider all the resources available to you and get the most of your next home improvement project.

Find out what’s behind the wallpaper and paint before beginning a remodeling project.

Tips for bathroom remodeling (BPT) - Remodeling a bathroom can increase the value of your home but short-sighted planning can wash projects down the drain. Some do-it-yourself experts recommend a fresh coat of paint, new tile, a shiny new sink and great cabinets to transform an ordinary bathroom into an extraordinary spa - but that’s just what the eye can see. Yes, your refinished bathroom will look different but will it hold its value? Not unless you think first of what’s behind the paint and tile and consider how to protect it from the greatest threat in a bathroom: moisture, mold and mildew. Upgrading your walls, ceilings and subfloors before you paint, install tile or hang a fancy new mirror can ensure your new bathroom will stand up to everyday splashes, showers and relaxing tub soaks, as well as dreaded mold and mildew that can come from these steamy, wet environments. Anitra Mecadon, host of DIY Network’s “Mega Dens” and spokesperson for National Gypsum, is on a mission to prevent major mold and mildew problems by recommending homeowners start at the studs. Here’s her advice when it comes to the No. 1 room people remodel in their homes - bathrooms: Look for ideas Popular upgrades include decorative tile or stone in the tub and shower areas. You can also consider multiple showerheads or steam enclosures to give your bathroom “spa appeal” without the worry. Budget and plan * The average cost of a bathroom remodel is around $16,000, so create a budget so you know how much you can comfortably spend. * If you plan to have someone do it for you, get an estimate from a contractor before you start. * Shop on your own, with a contractor or interior designer to select

building materials, fixtures and appliances. * Remember that bathrooms require two kinds of materials to help protect walls and floors: mold- and moisture-resistant drywall for areas behind mirrors, sinks or vanities, and cement board for the critically wet areas, such as tubs and showers. Be careful * Prepare for a demolition phase to tear out the tub, sink, tile, walls and flooring. * Be careful of pipes, air ducts and electrical wires behind the walls, ceilings and under the floors. * Measure twice, cut once. * You can never be too safe - use appropriate safety gear. Add value with walls and floors * After adding insulation, install mold- and moisture-resistant PURPLE XP drywall in your bathroom. * The PURPLE color is easy to spot in the drywall aisle of your local home improvement stores, and provides value and peace of mind that lasts. * For a strong base that stands behind every great finish - like tile, slate or marble - use one of National Gypsum’s PermaBase Cement Board options in critically wet areas around tubs and showers. Other notes to consider * Ask a friend to help for easier installation. * Forget traditional green board because it’s no longer approved by most building codes. * Instead, ask for PURPLE XP drywall to ensure yours is moisture-, mold- and mildew-resistant. * Remember that PermaBase Cement Board provides a hard, durable surface underneath ceramic tile or decorative stone and can withstand prolonged exposure to moisture.

Money-saving green enhancements can help you move your home more quickly.

Home buyers like green options (BPT) - Going green is good for the environment, but it can also be good for a homeowner’s wallet - and that’s the aspect of eco-friendly improvements that seems most appealing to homebuyers. More than 80 percent of buyers said they would pay more for home features that saved energy and trimmed utility bills, according to a recent survey by the National Association of Home Builders. That piece of information can be valuable to home sellers looking to get the best price for their homes this summer. Home improvements that also reduce utility bills - such as skylights and energy-efficient heating, ventilation and cooling systems - may be the investments that ensure a seller’s home will get top dollar and multiple offers. If you’re interested in making energy-efficient, cost-cutting improvements a selling point for your home this summer, you can achieve the benefit with basic, moderate or impressive improvements. What you choose to do will depend on your budget, time-frame and perceived benefit in terms of a speedy sale. Here are a handful of improvements, from basic to beautiful: Seal and insulate - Ideally, you’ve kept up on your home’s insulation and sealing all the time you’ve lived there. If not, potential buyers may be attracted by recent refurbishments to the caulking and sealing around windows, entry doors, garage doors and ductwork. In most instances, homeowners can easily improve sealing and insulation on their own, without hiring a professional. While the improvement may seem minor, its impact can be significant; EnergyStar.gov says sealing and insulating ducts can boost an HVAC’s efficiency as much as 20 percent, and sealing air leaks and adding insulation can trim annual energy bills as much as 10 percent. Replace old incandescent bulbs - When it comes to cost savings, replacing traditional incandescent bulbs with energy-sipping CFLs or LEDs is a cost-effective way to trim electricity bills. Both types of

bulbs use at least 75 percent less energy than traditional incandescents, and last 10 to 25 times longer, according to Energy.gov. While these bulbs cost more than regular bulbs, potential home buyers are likely to embrace the cost savings they’ll reap over the lengthy life of the bulbs. In terms of energy upgrades, it’s a relatively low-cost, high-impact improvement for a seller to make. Install a wireless, programmable thermostat - Connectivity is all the rage. When it comes to reducing heating and cooling costs by smarter thermostat use, wireless thermostats are the next big thing. Programmable thermostats have been available for years, and help reduce heating and cooling costs by automating settings to use energy wisely. Wireless thermostats enhance that functionality by allowing users to access their home’s temperature controls remotely from any Internet-enabled device.

Make sure to improve the right door (BPT) - How often do you use the front door? Not often, right? When Americans come home from work or school, the front door now takes a back seat to the garage door. “The garage door is used more often, it commands more curb appeal, and price-wise, it’s a great bargain,” says Jim Lett of ABE Doors & Windows in Allentown, Pennsylvania. A past president of the International Door Association, Lett sells both garage doors and entry doors. Lett says this major paradigm shift means more homeowners are investing in impressive garage doors with substantial curb appeal instead of front entry doors, which are used less and often shrouded in shadows. The primary entrance A national survey by Harris Interactive reveals that the garage door is indeed the door used most often to enter U.S. homes. Forty-five percent of homeowners with garages say the garage door is the primary point of entry into their home. The front door came in a distant second at 35 percent. The front entry door is used so little, many homeowners no longer even carry a key to that door. The new house key to today’s home is the remote control to the garage door. The battle for the front “For decades, garage door guys were jealous of the attention given to the front entry door,” says Gordon McGraw, owner of Overhead Door of Eugene-Springfield, Oregon. “But that’s changed.” Real estate agents used to tell people that the front door is the most important element to spruce up, because it’s the first thing visitors see, he says. “But that’s not true. A front-facing garage door is clearly much more dominant.”

Best door bargain in the house While the garage door is significantly larger, research shows it’s also more affordable. The average installed garage door sale is only about $1,500, while a much-smaller fiberglass entry door runs about $2,800, according to the Remodeling 2014 Cost vs. Value Report (www.costvsvalue.com). In that same report, the cost of an upscale garage door was only $2,800 compared to $7,300 for an upscale front entrance. “It’s crazy, but the garage door delivers five times the curb appeal, yet it costs less than a comparable front door,” says Lett. “I always encourage garage door customers to go for the upscale models. It’s well worth every dollar. You shouldn’t settle for a plain-Jane garage door.” Unprecedented choices The last 10 years have seen manufacturers introduce an unprecedented variety of dynamic new garage door styles. It’s now common for garage door dealers to offer dozens, if not hundreds of carriage house designs, the hottest new look. Visit www. garagewownow.com to see a wide variety of new designs from many manufacturers. Today’s garage doors are widely available in durable low-maintenance steel, and some new steel doors have a paint finish that looks exactly like real wood. Besides steel, the industry also offers innovative designs in aluminum and fiberglass. Gorgeous custom wood garage doors are also available as a premium choice. Welcome home Today, when America comes home, it’s not through the front door. In terms of use, convenience, and visual appeal, the garage door is the Heating new front door of the American home.
