A home inspection should cover the most visible elements of the house. (Dreamstime/TNS)

Paul F. P. Pogue Ask Angi(TNS) In today’s red-hot housing market, some buyers are offering to skip the home inspection to make their offer more attractive. And with so much competition, some sellers are even asking buyers to do so. With many buyers chasing after fewer homes, it might be tempting to skip this step to become the winning bid. But you could pay a big price for that oversight, and an inspection is usually worth the risk of losing of losing the house to avoid potential financial and structural nightmares after close. A home inspector is valuable because of their impartiality. Since they’re not selling you repairs and have no financial interest in the sale, they won’t have ulterior motives and can give you an honest evaluation of what you’re buying. If they identify issues and you still buy the property, the report will provide valuable insight into what problems you need to prioritize once you take possession. That inspection might identify a repair that, if dealt with right away, is relatively minor, but that could cost thousands if you wait to address it. You may also be able to negotiate payment responsibilities with the seller

if the inspector finds a major concern. It’s worth noting that, in most cases, a home inspection only covers visible components of the house. Unless mold is visible on a wall, for instance, your inspection will probably not catch it. (Some inspectors do offer mold detection equipment as an add-on service.) When the job is done, you should receive a detailed written report about the property. Some inspectors can turn this around in a day and it should never take more than a week. Here are the key areas you can expect to be covered in a home inspection: — Structural components — Exterior features such as siding, walkways and railings — Roof system — Electrical system, including service panels, breakers and fuses — Plumbing systems, including pipes, drains and water heating equipment — HVAC system, including equipment and venting — Interior features such as walls, floors, windows, doors and stairs — Fireplaces, including chimneys and vents Most home inspections cost between $300 and $500 and take around three to five hours. If possible, try to be there for the

At Home Northern Colorado

inspection itself. Your inspector can point out important things about the house, even if they won’t be part of the final report. If there’s any part of the upkeep or issues you don’t understand, an inspector can help clarify. When hiring an inspector, make sure they hold any necessary licensing, certification and insurance. Errors and omission (E&O) insurance is vital for an inspector, as is general liability insurance. E&O coverage protects both you and the inspector in the event a major problem goes undetected and the inspector is found accountable for the oversight. Most states and cities don’t require trade licenses for inspectors. Ask if they have membership in a respected trade organization such as the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors or the American Society of Home Inspectors. This isn’t required but is evidence they go the extra mile to keep up with continuing education. ____ Tweet your home care questions with #AskAngi and we’ll try to answer them in a future column.

CSU EXTENSION

Patience is the key to planting

BY CAROL O’MEARA

Colorado State University Extension

Have you been bitten by the gardening bug and are now itching to plant? The cool, wet weather we’ve been enjoying has had gardeners impatiently waiting for the soil to warm and the skies to stop peppering us with hail so our plants can finally go outside. Now that the National Weather Service is saying we’re in for warming up and drying out, be patient for a few more days to let the soil temperatures rise. Wet soil warms more slowly, because the sun’s energy goes into drying it out; once that’s accomplished the ground will be ideal for us to pop peppers, eggplant, and tomato seedlings in. Soil temperatures play a big role in when to plant our garden vegetables. For the peppers, tomatoes, and eggplant, warmth

needs to be 60F or more, with the ideal being above 65F. Planted too soon, the seedlings will sit and snit, refusing to grow until temperatures are more to their liking. Planting seeds in cool soil is tricky as well because many won’t germinate and instead rot. Beans, pumpkins, and squash should not go in until the soil is above 60F. The warming soil should happen fairly soon, since the ground has a chance to dry out in the next few days. What haven’t had a problem with the weather are weeds, which with all the moisture, sprouted with abandon. They’re growing with vigor, and if not brought under control, they’ll crowd out

your beds and be difficult to remove. Take this time to focus your energy on pulling weeds from the rain-softened soil. They’ll come out fairly easily and you’ll feel the sense of satisfaction from clearing the weeds out. If you’re especially frustrated by not planting, whack the weeds with your hoe a bit to wrench them from the ground. Most of these early-season weeds are good fodder for the compost pile since they haven’t had tome to produce seed heads. Those which have can still be composted; just snip off the seeds before tossing the plant on the pile. Check out Grow & Give (growgive.extension.colostate.

COVERPROFILE

Nearly Two-Thirds of Millennials Have New Homebuyer Regrets Zach Wichter, Bankrate.com (TNS) In today’s highly competitive real estate market, it’s all too common for buyers to rush into a deal that doesn’t fit their budget or suit their needs. Millennials in particular have the most regrets after buying a home, according to a new Bankrate survey. Buyer’s regrets are even more of a factor in the pandemic, with sight-unseen offers and contingencies waived to win the bid. The survey highlights some of the most common regrets new homeowners have and which demographic groups are most likely to have them. That desperation to land a home leads some buyers to settle for properties that aren’t quite right for them. Homebuyer regrets broadly fell into two major categories: financial and physical. In general, the survey found that the older the buyer, the less likely they were to have misgivings about their purchase after the fact. In all, 64 percent of millennial homebuyers (ages 25-40) have some regrets about their purchase compared with just 33 percent of baby boomer buyers (ages 57-75). Key findings -Maintenance costs can be a big unexpected issue for new homebuyers. -Shopping for a mortgage remains important because some buyers think they paid too much in interest. -A home’s layout and location are key sources of angst for those who purchase a home. Regrets about the costs of homeownership By far the biggest regret among 4

recent homebuyers was not being prepared for maintenance and other costs associated with homeownership. More than 20 percent of millennial homeowners said they felt the costs of homeownership were too high, and that number jumped to 26 percent among younger millennials, ages 25-31. “It can cause a rude awakening if one fails to plan for inevitable expenses,” said Mark Hamrick, Bankrate’s senior economic analyst. “This is yet another reminder why making emergency savings a top priority is so important. Whether it is a roof repair stemming from age or storm damage, or the need to fix or replace heating, cooling or appliances, it isn’t a question whether such expenses arise, only

when and how much they will cost.” Angelica Olmsted, an agent with RE/MAX Professionals Cherry Creek in Denver, said she advises her clients to regularly go back to their pre-closing inspection report, which can help new homeowners anticipate what repairs are likely to come up. “Most people pay a lot of attention to it the week they get the report and then put it in a file and never think about it again.” She said she suggests looking at it quarterly and checking in on the issues it highlights. “If there was a crack in the stucco in the inspection report, you have a picture. Has it changed? If it has, have someone go look at it.” It’s also important for new

At Home Northern Colorado

homeowners to know the age of major appliances and home systems such as HVAC, water heater, driveways and roofs. That way major replacement expenses can be anticipated and budgeted for based on the lifespan of these systems. Worries about getting the best mortgage rate Millennials were also the most likely to say they didn’t get a good mortgage rate, or that they overpaid for property. For example, 12 percent of millennials said their rates were too high, and 13 percent said they agreed to a sale price that was more than it should have been. Although mortgage rates are near historic lows, it remains important to shop around for the best offer. Even a few basis points difference in interest can mean a savings (or May 29, 2021


extra cost) of thousands of dollars over the life of your loan. According to a study Freddie Mac conducted in 2018, a borrower who got one extra rate quote saved an average of $1,435 over the life of a typical $250,000 mortgage. Moreover, 80 percent of those borrowers saved between $966 and $2,086 by shopping around with one additional lender. The more you shop around, the more savings you rack up. Borrowers who got five rate quotes saved $2,914 — on average — with 80 percent of those shoppers who got five quotes saving between $2,089 and $3,904. Remorse over the home itself While financial frustrations topped the list of regrets for new homebuyers, many survey respondents said they also came to realize their new place was literally not the right fit. Millennials again were the most likely to be unhappy with their new home’s physical characteristics. According to the survey, 15 percent of respondents from that generation said they disliked their new property’s location. Meanwhile, around 30 percent felt the home was not the right size. “Because the market is so competitive, you have less time to make a decision on a homebuying purchase than you do on a laptop at Best Buy,” said Olmsted. “You’ve already had, possibly, a couple of offers not accepted, you feel that pressure to make a decision and put an offer in.” In the Denver-area neighborhoods where she works, home showings may last as little as 15 minutes. “That is an insane amount of time to have to look at a property, see if you can live there, see if you like the neighborhood, see if a house has all the features you’re interested in,” she said. “If you have 15 minutes to look at it, then trying to drive around the neighborhood at different times of the night and day to see if you want to live there, you don’t have time to do that adequate amount of homework.” How homebuyers can avoid regretting their purchase In the current real estate market, it may be more important than ever to work with an agent who can guide you through the competition. May 29, 2021

“Having an agent who understands your wants and can push back when you need that is so important,” Olmsted said. She added that it’s especially crucial for your agent to understand the market conditions in the area where you’re shopping and to be able to save you from your own emotions if necessary. “I have clients I just have not written for because I can tell they’re just in a desperation state,” she said. “One hundred percent of the time, they’re like, ‘thank you, we didn’t want to write an offer.’” Olmsted added that agents need to be able to feel you out as your thinking changes. For example, she said, if a garage was on your musthave list but you start to waver after a few deals fall through, a good agent will help you figure out if it’s really no longer important or if it’s just your frustration getting the better of you. You should also make a budget early on and stick to it. With so many new homebuyers saying they have finance-related regrets, it’s a good idea to really think about what you can comfortably afford and make sure not to let the dazzle of an attractive property outshine those numbers. Best ways to avoid remorse —Work with an agent who understands the market. —Be ready to make some concessions, but stick to your guns on must-haves. —Focus on whether a home is somewhere you’d be comfortable living, even if it’s not your dream property. —Make a budget and keep it. —Don’t rush into a deal just because you’re frustrated. Despite the frenzied market, homebuyer regrets remain fairly constant. The disappointment trends today are similar to what they looked like a few years ago.

“With a bit of good fortune coinciding with the passage of some time, there may well be some home price appreciation providing substantial equity,” Hamrick added. “But the housing market is cyclical and tends to favor certain markets and neighborhoods. It is not always the case that the timing of both a home purchase and sale, dictated to some degree by other events, aligns perfectly with peaks and valleys in prices.” In neighborhoods with large non-white populations, home prices tend to appreciate more slowly, meaning that the benefits of homeownership do not accrue equally across the board, and that makes it more difficult for some younger nonwhite buyers to rely on family wealth to help them when the time comes to purchase their own homes. Bottom line Buying a home can be overwhelming, and for most people it is the single largest purchase they’ll ever make. Especially in this fevered real estate market, it can be easy to make snap decisions

because you want to edge out the competition without fully thinking things through. Planning ahead, working with a knowledgeable agent and not letting your emotions overcome your needs and limitations are all keys to being a satisfied homeowner after the excitement wears off and reality sets in. Methodology Bankrate.com commissioned YouGov Plc to conduct the survey. All figures, unless otherwise stated, are from YouGov Plc. Total sample size was 2,653 adults, including 1,425 homeowners. Fieldwork was undertaken on April 21-23, 2021. The survey was carried out online and meets rigorous quality standards. It employed a non-probability-based sample using both quotas upfront during collection and then a weighting scheme on the back end designed and proven to provide nationally representative results.

Homeownership is important, but out of reach for some “Owning a home still tops the American dream list,” Hamrick said. And that bears out: Historically, owning a home has been a crucial way for workingand middle-class families to build wealth.

Buying a Home? You Will Need Insurance

When you buy a home, you need insurance protection for what is probably the largest investment you will ever make. But BY DUANE when you buy DUGGAN a homeowners Realtor and Author RE/MAX of Boulder policy, you actually receive much more than protection for your home. Most homeowners insurance policies will not only cover the value of your home but also the personal property inside that home and provide liability coverage for you as a homeowner. Armed with a few pieces of information you will have a much easier time of shopping for homeowners insurance and understanding what it is that you are buying. How much insurance do you need? There is only one correct amount of coverage for your home: the cost to replace your home if it was to be completely destroyed. Keep in mind that the purchase price and your loan amount are irrelevant in determining the replacement cost of your home. So how do you estimate your replacement cost? You can get help determining that number from a number of different sources. One good source of information is an appraisal. A complete appraisal will detail your home’s replacement cost, and you will find a line item called “total estimated cost new” that will give you the number for replacement cost. Another source of information is your insurance agent. An insurance agent is not a home appraiser but should have access to helpful software and tools to determine the replacement cost of your home. With accurate information about your new home and a little experience, a good insurance agent should be able to insure your home correctly. A third source of information may be your builder if it is a newer home. The builder should have firsthand knowledge of the building costs. May 29, 2021

My lender says I must have enough coverage to cover my loan amount. Your mortgage lender’s main concern is to protect the loan they have given you. For that reason their request to you will typically be to find insurance in the amount of your loan. This can be a dilemma. In Colorado, and especially in the Boulder County area, land values can be exceptionally high. In this area, it is possible to have a loan value much greater than the replacement cost of the home. An insurance company will only pay the cost to replace the home even though you might have paid a premium for a higher level of protection. How do I satisfy my lender’s insurance requirements? Get a complete appraisal. A lender will typically allow you to insure your home for the appraised replacement cost even if it is less than the loan amount. A good insurance agent can help you with this. An experienced agent will help you find and read the replacement cost information presented on an appraisal. He or she will also be able to communicate effectively with your lender in providing insurance coverage information that satisfy both their needs to get you through your home closing. Guaranteed Replacement Cost? Increased Replacement Cost? Please be aware of the terms “Guaranteed Replacement Cost” and “Increased Replacement Cost”. Many insurance companies used to offer policies with guaranteed replacement cost coverage that guaranteed enough coverage to rebuild your home no matter how much coverage you purchased. Most companies now offer increased replacement cost instead. Increased replacement cost is a great safety feature in a homeowners contract. It states that the insurance company will pay a percentage more than the coverage listed on the policy. A good insurance agent should be able to help you establish a replacement cost amount for your new home that will fall

comfortably within the policy’s percentage range. How much will insurance cost? The cost of insurance will vary greatly depending on the value of your home, location, and the level of personal property coverage. Premiums can vary between companies so comparison shopping is usually a good idea. What deductible should I choose? Your choice of deductible will be decided by your financial situation and your personality. The higher the deductible, the lower the premium. If it’s difficult for you to come up with a $1,000 or $2,500 deductible for a claim, you may want to pay a slightly higher monthly premium to have a lower $500 deductible. If you can afford a higher deductible and don’t mind taking care of small claims yourself (i.e., a broken window or wind-damaged fence), you can save money on your premium. Assess your situation, note the difference in premium for various deductibles, and make an educated decision that you are comfortable with. Special Coverages Most of the time when you think of homeowners insurance, fire insurance usually comes to mind. Yet east of the mountains in Colorado we experience wind, hail, and floods. Due to large losses in the last decade due to these perils, insurance companies have changed how they determine coverage. Homeowners insurance might also cover many things you wouldn’t think of. Be sure to review your insurance coverage with your insurance professional to make sure it offers the protection you need. What if I am buying a condo or townhome? Your insurance needs may be different when you buy a condo or townhome than when purchasing a single-family home. Most often these units are covered by an association insurance policy that covers all the units in the complex. The cost of insurance is passed onto you in your

At Home Northern Colorado

association dues. When closing on a condo or townhome, your lender will need the name of the insurance company that insures that association. You can then purchase a homeowners insurance policy to cover your personal property and your liability. Not every condo association has insurance to cover your condo unit. Please check with the association to make sure. If the association does not cover the buildings, talk with your insurance agent and they will be able to help you customize a policy that will include coverage for your portion of the building. Even if your association has a policy to cover your unit, that policy may not cover such things as upgrades to cabinets and carpeting. Your association bylaws should detail the insurance coverage. It would be a good idea to get a copy of the bylaws and review them with your insurance agent. You can add to your own policy to cover gaps in your association policy. When should I contact an insurance agent? Your lender will need time to request Evidence of Hazard Insurance in order to obtain final approval on your home loan. If you do not currently have an insurance agent, you may want to start your search as soon as you find a home you plan on purchasing. Once you have decided on an insurance agent, it is important that you provide their name and contact information to your mortgage lender as soon as possible.

THE LIGHTER SIDE

The weirdness of my grandparents’ Florida home When you’re a kid growing up, you don’t think too much about how your grandparents live. You see them a few times a year, BY MARY LYNN BRUNY they stuff your pie hole with food and sometimes sneak you sweets. It’s just part of the whole familial system you participate in as a small human. But then the day came when my boyfriend (now my husband) went on a trip with my parents and me and met my (now late) maternal grandparents in Florida. It was only when we walked through their front door that I truly saw my grandparents’ home in all its quirky glory. First, it was completely dark inside. The living room had heavy curtains to block out the strong Florida sun. The only illumination was from the blaring television

that was never, ever turned off. The volume was always cranked so loudly that we had to shout to be heard over “Wheel of Fortune” or “Jeopardy.” The next thing one couldn’t help noticing was that it was an absolute sweatbox of heat. Despite the fact it was more than 100 humid degrees out, my grandparents never, ever ran their air conditioning. My grandfather contended this was an expensive luxury for “rich buggers.” According to my grandfather’s view of things – which he expressed vigorously and often - rich buggers caused all the ills of the world. As I small child I thought he was referring to actual bugs and wondered how they got rich and what they were doing that was so wrong. After we adjusted to the darkness and the oppressive heat, my kind grandmother graciously offered us food that had been sitting out for many, many hours in anticipation of our arrival. She was not big on proper food storage. My mother – who knew

this – looked at the table with its glistening lunchmeat and melting potato salad and hissed to my boyfriend, “Don’t eat those!” The problem was the other stuff on the table, old-world food like headcheese (which is nowhere near being a cheese but more a gelatinous concoction of grossness) and pickled pigs feet (which unfortunately are exactly what they claim to be), were not exactly preferable dining options. I handed my distressed-looking boyfriend a plate of potato chips and an off-brand soda (name brand for rich buggers, of course). After making our plates we moved to the dark living room with its heavy baroque furnishings to eat, sweat and scream polite conversation at one another. When my boyfriend tried to sit in an armchair I stopped him. This chair and one side of the couch was where my grandparents’ crazy-eyed, nippy and frenetic dog Fifi sat. We didn’t pet Fifi. We didn’t talk to Fifi. We didn’t look Fifi in the eye or she would go nuts. And we never, ever sat in her

spots. Not only because she was a loon, but because Fifi had some condition where the fur from the back half of her body fell out and left hairy swirls my grandparents never removed. Fifi territorially guarded these furry nests like a deranged little lion. Luckily, she was stashed in a bedroom during our visit though I could vaguely hear her angry protestations during the commercial breaks for hemorrhoid ointment and denture cream. After our voices got hoarse and we could no longer scream at each other, we thanked my grandparents for a memorable visit and headed to our hotel. Its brightly lit, cool, clean interior felt almost shocking to our systems. Not a bad shocking, mind you. Frankly, it felt nice being rich buggers enjoying AC.

Home upgrade resource website Modernize advises homeowners to make use of vertical space and stack the washer and dryer. Doing so will provide more room for a small sink and the counter. Another way to incorporate organization is cabinetry and shelving. You don’t always have to enlist the help of a professional to build some either. “Closed laundry room cabinets create a tidy, polished look, but open storage areas can also be helpful for organizing oftenused items. To convert regular cabinetry into open shelving, simply remove the doors and fill in any holes left behind by hardware,” Better Homes & Gardens said. DIY Network says you can use ready-to-assemble cabinets

At Home Northern Colorado

to save money on a pantry-area laundry room. With this option, you don’t pay the costs for the manufacturer to assemble them. Once installed, you can place an ironing board unit on the back wall of the pantry. Finally, if your home lacks a dedicated laundry room, that doesn’t mean you can’t make space for the essentials. Men’s buyer’s guide magazine Next Luxury says you can craft a laundry space from the hallway. “If you want to tuck your laundry room out of sight while maintaining easy access, a hallway closet is your best bet. You can turn even a tiny closet into a small laundry room as long as the necessary utility hookups are there,” it said, noting that the most logical options are closets near the mudroom or primary bedroom.

Rare Opportunity on the River!

Shop Vacs are Useful! MENARDS—Most people either own a shop vac or have at least used one. These highly versatile wet/dry vacuums that can safely pick up liquids, dirt or debris of various size in a house or garage, and are ideal for clean-up for construction or do-ityourself projects and other creative uses as below: Grills Before re-using a grill, scrape and remove the grate, then use a shop vac to collect the cold ashes and debris that have accumulated below. Fairly simple, but don’t pick up hot ashes. Floods It’s not a secret that shop vacs are ideal to suck up and clean large amounts of water, especially if a pipe breaks or your basement floods. Larger shop vacs have a drain from the collection drum to make emptying easier. Kitchens Paper towels are not always a quicker, easier or cheaper way to clean up a kitchen mess. A shop vac can be ideal when someone spills liquids, food, beverages, sauces and more, or breaks a glass or bowl that leaves shards all over the floor. Remember to thoroughly clean and rinse a shop vac that has collected anything with an odor. Pool Toys Are you blue in the face from blowing and blowing

on a pool toy, air mattress or small raft? Sometimes these items are left inflated but lose air over time or might tear or pop if left inflated. Use a shop vac to do the job instead. Fireplace Not everyone has a fireplace, but cleaning out a fireplace or fire pit can be messy. Instead of sweeping and scooping ashes into the trash, suck it up with a shop vac. Make sure your vac is using a fine dust filter and dust bag so the ash will be capture. Don’t pick up hot ashes. Snow When you track in the winter snow and salty messes from a sidewalk, vehicle or garage into your home, why not use a shop vac to clean up the mess. Aquarium Be careful not to overfill the collection drum, but using a shop vac can make removing water from an aquarium quick and easy.
